workmanlike and thoroughly respectable, but barely ever rises above the level of average September 15, 2005

Ozzy's "The Ultimate Sin" was originally released in early 1986, and it seems a bit like something that was cranked out merely to satisfy the record company's thirst for another album. Don't get me wrong though--this is not a BAD album at all.
Regardless of how much Ozzy hates the hit "Shot In The Dark" nowadays, it's quite a strong song: an engagingly melodic rock ballad with excellent guitarwork and atmospheric synth.
As for the remaining tracks... Well, this is one of the most average albums I've ever heard in my life. Again, this is not to say it's BAD, because it's not--track after track has moderately engaging melodicism, although none of the tunes are particularly catchy, and the lyrics tend to be on the weak side as well. Ozzy doesn't strike me as sounding particularly inspired vocally, but I think this goes hand-in-hand with the material being so-so. Ozzy aside, I don't have any bones to pick with the performances or the production, it's really just the material that's problematic. All that said, this is an album that you won't feel COMPELLED to turn off once it's playing, yet it never really makes you jump out of your seat either.
"The Ultimate Sin" is the second and last studio album from Ozzy featuring Jake E. Lee on guitar, and it certainly isn't as inspired as "Bark At The Moon", Lee's first with Ozzy. "The Ultimate Sin" isn't a must-miss, but it's best left for diehard Ozzy fans.
