Zakk Wylde Workshop
Zakk Wylde is one of the greatest guitar players of all time. Playing with legends like Ozzy Osbourne he has greatly improved his playing over the years. Initially he made a solo album by the name of Book of Shadows and later on he progressed with his own band called the Black Label Society.
Zakk formed a band called Lynyrd Skynhead with James Lomenzo and Greg DeAngelo of White Lion fame in 1992 while he was still with Ozzy. They jammed a bunch of classic rock and southern rock tunes from bands such as Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Allman Bros, ZZ Top, and Mountain. This lineup recorded the track "Farm Fiddlin'" which appeared on the "Guitars That Rule The World Vol. 1" compilation album, which is now out of print.
Black Label Society are currently on the mainstage of Ozzfest 2002, with Robert Trujillo, also Ozzy's bassist, playing bass for them. You can also catch Zakk playing with Ozzy's band as well.
