Found this article recently, very little but even after the split in '79, it's nice to know they had good feelings towards Ozzy at the time.

I can imagine the anxiety that Geezer and co would’ve had for a short time hearing on the radio that members of Ozzy’s band hand been killed in a plane crash.

Ozzy and the rest of the band were probably very lucky they weren’t killed actually.

There are lots of rock and rollers that are lucky they didn't burn out or die tragically, given the level of substance abuse so many were up to...
