This review for the 2002 CD, not the original 1983 release or the 1995 remastered CD
If you're a fan of the original release be warned that this 2002 release is a remix, not a remaster. Some parts are now missing, some have been lowered in the mix making them inauduible, while others boosted. To give an example, on the original UK release from 1983, after the great opening riff, the first bit of Jake E Lee that made me sit up and take notice ( I was about 15 and likely lying down alot ) was a superb guitar break around 2:22 on 'Rock 'n' Roll Rebel'. On the 2002 release it's been removed. Very strange!

Bark At The Moon has always been my own personal favourite when it comes to Ozzy's albums. It is also the first album to feature Jake E Lee on lead guitar and you can tell when you listen to the music that Ozzy had a bigger influence on this album than he did on the others when Randy was on lead guitar. All the tracks on the album are heavy metal classics that will soon have you head bangin' way to some simply great music. The opening track, Rock 'N' Roll Rebel, is one of the best tracks Ozzy has written and perhaps it is written with tongue in cheek about the great man himself and his rise to fame. Bark At The Moon, Spiders and Waiting For Darkness also deserve a special mention for the shear inventiveness of some of the music and it was nice to see Ozzy experimenting with keyboards on some of the tracks. There is a very nice ballad on this album, So Tired, and it makes a change to hear Ozzy write some slow beautiful music. If you are a true Ozzy fan then this album is simply a must for your collection as in my humble opinion it is his best work to date.

Ozzy Osbourne's third studio album Bark At The Moon was released in 1983 and was the first Ozzy album to feature Jake E Lee on guitar, after the death of original guitarist Randy Rhodes.
Jake E Lee's has a very different guitar style to either Randy or Zack, which gives his two album's with the band a unique flavor. The album is still full of dramatic guitar solos and big riffs and should keep guitar fans very happy.
Bark At The Moon contained some hard and heavy numbers but also saw a move in a slightly more commercial direction than the first two albums and as such hasn't dated just as well as they have. Some songs seen a tad overproduced and some feature synth sounds very much of their time.
The album has some utterly standout music however, such as `Bark At The Moon,' and `Rock N Roll Rebel,' both of which are two of the best songs ever released under the Ozzy Osbourne name. If the whole album was as good as those two songs it would be an unquestionable five star effort. To be absolutely fair, the good to filler ratio isn't as high as it could be however, and some listeners may find it a little hit and miss.
Legal difficulties between Ozzy and ex-members have spoiled the band's legacy for a whole generation, making some albums hard to get a hold of, impossible to hear live or reissued with heavy edits and overdubs.
If you plan on buying Bark At The Moon you'll have a choice between the original, the 1995 cd version with the tiny cover art in a dark purple frame or the 2002 version where the music has been altered and guitar parts are missing but containing the excellent bonus track `One Up The B Side.'
Overall, Bark At The Moon isn't the hands down greatest Ozzy album, but it is still fairly essential for fans, and definitely worth checking out for the two aforementioned tracks.

It`s a must get album for all Ozzy fans, the albums fantastic, a great mix of hardcore metal and a more sedate metal.

Despite the loss of Randy Rhoads, this third outing from Ozzy is...
The tragic loss of Randy Rhoads could so easily have destroyed Ozzy's career. For me the first two Ozzy albums, featuring Randy will always be the best. Read more

ozzy bounces back.
Ozzy had to deal with the terrible tragedy of randy rhodes death in a plane crash. He fell off the wagon and then got back on and recorded this very good melodic metal cd. Read more

Another hit by Ozzy
Very good album, not great as the two previous but also recommended.
There are some great songs, great solos by Lee.
Every metal fan should have Ozzy's albums.

Classic.
Oz was on a roll after Blizzard and Diary. Even the tragic death of Randy Rhodes ultimately proved that musically Oz still had what it took to deliver. This album is brilliant. Read more

Solid Album!
'Bark At The Moon' would probably rank as my second favourite Ozzy Osbourne album (I tend to play 'Ozzmosis' more) and a solid heavy metal record from start to finish. Read more
