On May 12, 2026 late very longtime HardRadio friend OZZY OSBOURNE was honored with U.S. Congressional Record as Vol. 172, No. 80 Recognizing The Life And Legacy Of John Michael 'Ozzy' Osbourne. Presented by Indiana Representative Victoria Spartz, the Congressional Record was received at the U.S. Capitol by Ozzy's wife, Sharon, and his children, Jack and Aimee. The record partly reads: 'Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the life and legacy of John Michael Osbourne, known around the world as Ozzy Osbourne. The legendary front man of Black Sabbath and a towering figure in the history of rock and heavy metal. Ozzy came from very humble beginnings. Raised by parents who were both factory workers, he rose from modest circumstances to become one of the most influential artists of all time, a true working-class hero whose success never erased his authenticity or connection to ordinary people. [] Today we say, No more tears, for Ozzy Osbourne lived life without restraint. His voice and memory live on as an enduring symbol of the rebellious independence, creative freedom, and unapologetic individuality at the heart of the American spirit."
A new exhibition HENDRIX IN LONDON is set to open on June 19 at Handel Hendrix House, located at 23 Brook Street in London, England. Drawing on a remarkable archive of previously unseen material, the display offers a rare glimpse into Hendrix's life, work and the world that surrounded him during his time at 23 Brook Street. At its heart is a newly acquired collection of over 500 items from the archive of Patricia 'Trixie' Sullivan, personal assistant to Hendrix's manager, Mike Jeffery. Through letters, contracts, and everyday documents, the exhibition reveals the inner workings of the late 1960s music industry, as well as the people behind Hendrix's extraordinary rise.
