MailOnline 25 JUL 2025







An air ambulance was called to Ozzy Osbournes multi million pound country home as paramedics battled to save his life





The Thames Valley air ambulance landed in a field close to Welders House, the singers Grade II listed mansion on Tuesday morning at around 10.30am.


Its believed that calls from Welders House had led call handlers to believe that the Black Sabbath singers life was in the balance.

A chopper was dispatched from Thames Valley ambulance base at RAF Benson in Wallingford, Oxfordshire, some 27 miles from the mansion which is located close to the village of Chalfont St Giles, Buckinghamshire.

The crew were airborne for around 15 minutes before landing in the grounds of the mansion and were then with Ozzy for around two hours, trying but failing to save his life, its understood.

News of the helicopter drama is the first insight into the finer details of the singers death.

After Ozzys death, the heavy metal greats he inspired remember his pranks, generosity and quadruple brandies and relive the tears at his farewell show

The joy he was experiencing was infectious -Brann Dailor, drums/vocals, Mastodon


My introduction to Sabbath was my moms band, who used to cover War Pigs a pretty faithful rendition. But Ozzy felt more like my discovery, in 1981 or so. I was six years old, a neighbour had Blizzard of Ozz and I would just would stare at that album cover. I fell in love. The Randy Rhoads guitar solos, and then you would see footage of Ozzy and he looked as if he was having the time of his life up there.

For a kid, he almost seemed like a cartoon character the joy he was experiencing was infectious, but also the music was visceral. He became my favourite musician. I had a boombox next to my bed with the Tribute live album on at a low volume so nobody in the house would wake up, and Id go to sleep to Ozzy every night.

Theres something about his vocal phrasing, a timbre thats so perfectly matched with the music thats playing underneath. He had the ability to emote and tell a story and draw you in, and the melodies he chose were really special. I dont think he got enough credit as a singer to the layperson he was this madman, and to them, the magic lay there and not in his abilities.

But the way he sang was so unique and powerful. Its so ingrained in my mind that when I listen back to stuff that Ive done in Mastodon, when I sing, I can tell that its so heavily influenced by him. I like big, heavy riffs with an almost evil sounding, dark, high pitched vocal tonality thats Ozzy to a T.

I met him at Ozzfest in 2005 I had got a Randy Rhoads drum kit made, and he, Sharon and Zakk Wylde came over in a golf cart to look at it. But I usually kept my distance just because Im such a huge fan and didnt want to get in the way.

Then Mastodon got to play Back to the Beginning, Ozzy and Black Sabbaths farewell concert on 5 July. Some icons of music, they didnt know when it was their last show, take Prince, for instance. And so it was really, really special for them to perform a definitive final show. Mastodon were on first and I was unsure if it was going to be just a couple of people in the crowd when we played.

But we were driving to the stadium, passing all the pubs, and they were filled with people and you could hear Sabbath blasting out of them at 9.30am. And then we got there and all the bands, from Metallica to Slayer to Anthrax, are at the side of the stage, they want to see us do our thing.



It was this really palpable energy, this big feeling of love for Black Sabbath, to honour them the proper way


But then you knew that the big moment was looming Ozzys gonna play. This is the last time you're gonna hear Crazy Train. -Dailor begins crying. Mr Crowley, the beginning, the organ, it was so powerful. Everybody was crying.

It was just like, oh my God, this is the last time we're going to see this. Then Tonys guitar, Geezers bass he was ripping, it was insane and Bills drums. Those four super special guys doing their thing. The gravity of the moment hit everybody at the same time, that this is it. It was a beautiful moment to be in.

Sabbath were so influential because they were so riff centric, and that just really didnt exist before. You had some bands that were close to it but nobody really took that leap into the sound of horror. Like with Led Zeppelin, it got kind of dark, with Deep Purple, there were some moments.

Something was swirling around in the air but Black Sabbath realised it.







They knew that could be a real wealth of inspiration, to really tap into this darkness that exists out there and inside of everyone, but also in a playful way






Ozzy is a LEGEND and will NEVER be forgotten....
