Description:
Featurettes from the decade-old Hard and Heavy program are collected on Rockthology, volume 2 of which stars metal giants Ozzy Osbourne, Lita Ford, Scorpions, Yngwie Malmsteen, Judas Priest, Ronnie James Dio, German goddess Doro, and progressive-metallers Queensryche. The 5- to 15-minute episodes showcase band member interviews, snippets from video clips, and occasional in-studio or at-home footage. Highlights are Ozzy discussing his partnership with late guitarist Randy Rhoads, Priest's Rob Halford admitting his anger over the infamous trial accusing their music of causing a teenager's death, and Queensryche's members hoping their music will make listeners aware of political and environmental concerns. Otherwise, this ragtag, 80-minute collection isn't thorough enough to satisfy longtime fans and is too "inside" to attract new ones. Cutting between interviews and video clips kills the chance to enjoy either, and the shortest segments (on Malmsteen and Doro) are so superficial they'll disappoint everyone. --Kevin Filipski
