 Favorite Artists- Zakk Wylde
Zakk Wylde is a complete and utter badass in every sense of the word.
Zakk is always changing....He went from Ozzy, to forming Pride and Glory (hard rock with a southern flavor), to doing Book of Shadows on his own (mostly acoustic stuff), to forming Black Label Society, which is a crushingly heavy metal band.
Zakk can do it all..he can pretty much do anything on the guitar, from playing it blazingly fast to playing it with his teeth, but he's also a very soulful singer and piano player.

 Ink 19 :: Zakk Wylde
A longtime fan of Black Sabbath, Ozzy, and such heavy rock bands, it was a chance meeting with his football coach's son that turned him on to the magic of the six string.
Wylde also can take credit for infusing new life in the aging rocker's career, particularly on such killer tunes as "No More Tears," "Miracle Man," "I Don't Want to Change the World" and "Hellraiser," (written with Motorhead's Lemmy Kilmister), which rank among the best of Ozzy's career.
Where P&G was a cold Budweiser and the solo record is a smooth sip of Southern Comfort, BLS is a full-on double-shot of knock-you-to-your knees Jack Daniels with a chaser of Everclear (the 150 proof liquor, not the flash-in-the-pan band, that is).

There is an exclusive interview where the eloquent and knowledgeable Zakk fills us in on everything from the show that was used in the video, to his musical influences, to his first band's first gig.
There is an acoustic set showcasing Zakk's ability to fluidly combine rock, classical, country, and blues licks in his music when it focuses on just two guitars and his vocals.
We get a snippet of a guitar lesson from Zakk that I assume is from a separate video as he is mentioning stuff that he showed us "before".

 Metal Rules!!:  Zakk Wylde, Black Label Society: Interview
When I think of Zakk Wylde, I think of blaring ripping solos, ultra-thick rhythms ripe with cool artificial harmonics and of course the image buried in my mind of the head-banging maniac in Ozzy Osbourne's "Miracle Man" video.
Zakk is still playing metal and still searing his fretboard on his new solo CD Stronger Than Death for his band Black Label Society.
He was like “Zakk Wylde is a huge Allmans fan, he can come out and do it.” So they let me come out and do the show.

 Mafia by Zakk Wylde CD
Zakk Wylde's Artemis Records debut, MAFIA, is not only his seventh album since founding Black Label Society in 1998, but part of a solo career that's a sideline to playing guitar for Ozzy Osbourne.
Equally impressive are Wylde's vocals, which have evolved into a mix of musical godfather Ozzy and late Alice in Chains frontman Layne Staley.
Zakk continues to use his Ozzy-voice, but steps up the constipated groaning as well.

After spending several years with Ozzy Osbourne and recording one album with the heavy Southern rock trio Pride & Glory, guitarist Zakk Wylde released his debut solo album, Book of Shadows, in June of 1996.
Wylde does kick out some heavy riff-driven rockers, but he also detours into blues, country, and folk on occasion.
However, Wylde's songwriting skills remain weak; although the playing is memorable, the melodies rarely are.

Zakk said that you know a Guitarist is great when you can hear 1 or 2 notes and know who it is. He had nothing but respect for all the others.
Zakk Wylde isn't Steve Vai you fucking dumbass, zakk doesn't just play fast, in fact he's one of the only metal guitarists I know that try's different things out, i.e.
He also plays at all speeds not just "fast" like u smartly stated and anyway, why are you comparing him to Steve Vai when they're to completely different guitarists, why are you even watching this video if you don't like zakk wylde u tard.

The DVD also includes an interview where Zakk takes you from his early guitar beginnings up through the fans of Harpo's drinking every last of alcohol the night they taped the DVD.

 Zakk Wylde Black Label Society's "Sonic Brew" reviewed by The House of Shred
Zakk Wylde is one of the best guitarists around, yet both his critically acclaimed Pride & Glory and his awesome Book Of Shadows (one of my fave CD’s EVER) projects never achieved commercial success.
The drums are very adequately handled by Phil Ondich, with Zakk handling pretty much everything else.
Editor's note: This CD's cover was changed due to a complaint filed by a whiskey maker.
