* MetalScream: The famous opener to "Crazy Train".Train" has Ozzy screaming "AAAALLLL ABOOOAAAAARD!!!" followed by an EvilLaugh.
* OdeToSobriety: Surprisingly enough, considering how Ozzy is notorious for his massive drug usage, "Suicide Solution", which was inspired by the death of Music/{{ACDC}}'s Bon Scott, is a song that portrays alcohol abuse as a terrible thing. The title refers to liquor (a solution in the sense of "a substance dissolved in another") as a method of "slow suicide".

The solo debut of (At the time) former Music/BlackSabbath frontman Music/OzzyOsbourne.

The album's genesis began before Ozzy's firing from Sabbath, as he briefly took time off from the band to begin recording. After returning to record what would become the Sabbath album ''Never Say Die!'', band tensions reached a boiling point and Ozzy was dismissed. While his bandmates claimed it was his substance abuse issues that led to the firing, Ozzy himself has stated they were all equally strung out.

Nevertheless, Ozzy officially became a solo act. Bringing in Music/UriahHeep drummer Lee Kerslake, 2 members of Music/{{Rainbow}}, bassist Bob Daisley and keyboardist Don Airey, and former Music/QuietRiot guitarist Randy Rhoades to officially bring his first solo effort to life.

''Blizzard Of Ozz'' was officially released on September 20th, 1981 to smashing success. Most notable for the tracks "Crazy Train" and "Mr. Crowley".
