Ozzy Osbourne, the self-styled Prince of Darkness who helped define heavy-metal music as the singer of Black Sabbath, has died at age 76.

Osbourne played at least seven concerts in Jacksonville, dating back to 1971.

The Osbournes' Changed Ozzy's Image From Grisly to Cuddly, and Changed Reality TV LOS ANGELES (AP) — There was Ozzy before “The Osbournes” and Ozzy after “The Osbournes.” For much of his life, the Black Sabbath founder and legendary heavy metal frontman who died at 76 on Tuesday was known to much of the public as a dark purveyor of deeds ranging from decadent to downright Satanic.

He fronted the British band Black Sabbath in the 1970s, launched a successful solo career in the ’80s and starred in a hit MTV reality series.
