Ozzy Osbourne releases new album

Ozzy Osbourne has released Under Cover, a collection of remakes that were almost all previously heard as part of his boxed set, Prince Of Darkness, which came out earlier this year. Ozzy told us that he wanted to record an album of covers for a while to give his own music a rest:

So the idea of the covers thing was not only to do already tested songs, but it would allow me a little bit of breathing space."

In addition to tunes previously included on Prince Of Darkness, the Under Cover DualDisc features three new covers: John Lennon's "Woman," Joe Walsh's "Rocky Mountain Way" and the Moody Blues' "Go Now."

The DVD portion of the disc includes the video for Osbourne's cover of the Beatles' "In My Life," along with "Dinner With Ozzy and Friends," a 30-minute feature in which Ozzy shares stories with guests like son Jack Osbourne and Motorhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister.

Osbourne appears on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday night, November 2nd, CNN's Showbiz Tonight on the 4th and NBC's Last Call With Carson Daly on November 11th. Other TV guest spots are likely to be announced as well.
