And the Album of the YEAR is....

Ozzy Osbourne goes UNDER COVER as he pays tribute to songs he covets on a new DUALDISC from Epic Records.

The track listing is classic:

01. Rocky Mountain Way
02. In My Life
03. Mississippi Queen
04. Go Now
05. Woman
06. 21st Century Schizoid Man
07. All The Young Dudes
08. For What It's Worth
09. Good Times
10. Sunshine Of Your Love
11. Fire
12. Working Class Hero
13. Sympathy For The Devil

John Lennon, Joe Walsh,The Moody Blues,The Beatles,King Crimson and Buffalo Springfield are all OZZYIFIED quite nicely. Three of the tracks are from the Prince of Darkness boxset where the idea was obviously hatched by producer/wife Sharon.

Rolling Stone in their review of the Prince of Darkness collection RAVED about his cover of John Lennon's Working Class Hero, and rightfully so, it's a classic and considering Ozzy's backround, it sounds like the story of his life.

The DVD side of the UNDER COVER DualDisc contains the video for "In My Life," a stirring collection of archival footage spanning OZZY's career. Other highlights include the half-hour presentation "Dinner With Ozzy and Friends" where OZZY, as only he can, tells some of his favorite stories to guests who include son Jack Osbourne and Motorhead's Lemmy Kilmister. In addition, there are classic moments showing OZZY's repeated attempts to light Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward's beard on fire and his encounter with a group of nuns at an airport.

Guests on the record include Leslie West, Robert Randolph and Ian Hunter.

Run don't walk to pick this baby up for the holidays, Working Class Hero alone is worth the price of admission and the DVD footage will have you glued to the TV, you wish it would go on for hours and not just the 30 plus minutes it runs...
