Jake E. Lee Made Ozzy MILLIONS... Sharon Cashed The Checks. In this episode, we dive deep into one of rock's most baffling and frustrating stories: how Jake E. Lee, the man responsible for co-writing much of Bark at the Moon and The Ultimate Sin, got written out of the money, the spotlight, and the legacy. From his days in Rough Cutt and Ratt to being tapped by Sharon Osbourne as Randy Rhoads’ replacement, Jake brought a fiery, aggressive, and inventive guitar style that helped define early '80s Ozzy. But while Ozzy's empire exploded—TV shows, tours, and merch money pouring in—Jake got ghosted, underpaid, and eventually replaced. We'll uncover the real reasons Jake never signed that contract, how Sharon restructured the band’s finances, and what happened after the MTV era when everyone got rich except the guy who wrote the songs. It’s a wild story of loyalty, betrayal, and what happens when business overrides the music.
