1986. 40 years later.
In 1986 you needed one really great tune to make an album succeed. Shot in the Dark is that tune. I owned this on CD and I'm 99% sure that the MP3 album in my music directory is a rip of that CD.
So how does it hold up in 2026? Shot in the Dark is still a fabulous tune. The title track still hits hard too. The rest of the record is fine, but nothing special. 2 good songs and a bunch of okay tunes is how I remember most of Ozzy's output in this phase of his career, so from that POV, it's a standard Ozzy record.
