Brother Zakk Wylde talks to me from his tour bus in Akron, Ohio about two lists of songs that make his skin vibrate – the first one is the ‘exclusive’ list best not shared beyond the tour bus, and the second being the more PG version. Zakk’s hilarious and still a super genuine guy.

During our chat he tells some great Ozzy stories complete with a spot-on Oz impression, the importance of payola, what made Randy Rhoads so great, rock and roll genealogy, and what ingredients go into the Zakk Wylde ‘soup’.

Wylde’s playlist:

Elton John – Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds

Black Sabbath – Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (album)

Al DiMeola – Land of the Midnight Sun (album)

John McLaughlin – Anything

Frank Marino – The Power of Rock and Roll (album)

Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin I (album)

Ozzy Osbourne – Diary of a Madman (album)
