The Black Sabbath frontman and iconic heavy metal frontman, Ozzy Osbourne, has died aged 76.
Osbourne was one of the most notorious figures in rock: an innovator whose eerie wail helped usher in heavy metal, a showman who once bit the head off a bat on stage, an addict whose substance abuse led him to attempt to murder his wife, and latterly, a reality TV star much loved for his bemusement at family life on The Osbournes. His death comes less than three weeks after his retirement from performance.
We would like to hear your tributes and memories of Ozzy Osbourne – whether you met him, or appreciated his work as a musician.
