See Revealing, Lost Black Sabbath Items From UK Auction

The collection features a number of notes Osbourne wrote to his parents while the band was on tour. One, from France, finds him telling his parents that the place they were at was "not a very nice place ... I don't think the people like long hair." The other, written from Hamburg, finds the singer telling his parents that everyone in the band was getting along and that he was excited about playing the Star Club where the Beatles made the "BIG TIME."
