A Chat with Zakk Wylde
Recently, Ultimate Classic Rock sat down with Zakk Wylde to discuss the work he’s been putting into Zakk Sabbath. When asked about the importance of Black Sabbath in rock music, Wylde shared some poignant insights:
"I remember playing keg parties and people’s kitchens and basements, playing these songs when I was, like, 16 years old," he reminisced. "And here I am, 57 years old, and I’m still playing them, and I’m still in people’s basements and kitchens and backyard keg parties, but there’s just a couple more people there."
Wylde also emphasized the significance of studying the work of iconic rock bands like Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and Deep Purple: "Part of your education is Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and Deep Purple. You know a riff by one of those guys, just because it’s your education. You learn how to play these songs."
