Dave Matthews Band - Warehouse

Both intros are particularly good during live concerts.

Oh yeah, Baba O'Riley has such awesome parts to it, especially the intro. Though for the life of me I can't understand why it's not called Teenage Wasteland.

it's named after a band member's cousin. It was also misspelled on all of the albums, so it was corrected when Blue Man Group recently covered it as part of the conditions for letting them play it. That's why BMG calls it Baba O'Reilly

that's what I was thinking. I'm not really a fan, but can't believe it took this long to be mentioned.

Isn't it Black Sabbath though and not just Ozzy? or did Ozzy never go solo, it was always Black Sabbath, but people just say Ozzy? like I said, not really a fan 😛

Ozzy was a founding member of Black Sabbath in B'ham, England, UK in the late 60s.

Ozzy went solo in 1979 with Randy Rhoads (formerly of Quiet Riot) on lead guitar. Blizzard of Ozz and Diary of a Madman were the results. Ozzy continued his solo career with other guitar players such as Brad Gillis, Jake E. Lee, and Zakk Wylde after Randy's death.

< Seen Ozzy twice; as Ozzy and as Black Sabbath.

Simply astonishing

I don't really care for the rest of the song (I guess it's alright), but the intro is sweet.
 
Kashmir - Led Zepplin
Seek and Destroy - Metallica
Red Barchetta - Rush
YYZ - Rush
Holy Wars - Megadeth
