Ozzy Osbourne box set in stores next month
"Prince of Darkness," a four-disc box set from heavy-metal godfather Ozzy Osbourne , will hit shelves on March 22.
The Epic Records release will house two discs of re-mastered versions of some of Osbourne's most popular hits--including "Crazy Train," "Mr. Crowley," "Diary of a Madman" and "No More Tears"--and will also include several live cuts and rare demos.
A third disc, titled "Oddities and Duets," will feature some of Osbourne's "most unusual collaborations," according to a press release, including "For Heaven's Sake" with the Wu-Tang Clan, "Born to Be Wild" with Miss Piggy and "Nowhere to Run (Vapor Trail)" with The Crystal Method, DMX and Ol' Dirty Bastard.
The fourth disc, titled "Under Covers," comprises Osbourne's renditions of some of his favorite works by other artists, such as "In My Life" (The Beatles), "Sympathy for the Devil" (Rolling Stones) and "21st Century Schizoid Man" (King Crimson)." Guitarists Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains), Robert Randolph (Robert Randolph & The Family Band) and Leslie West (Mountain) appear on the set.
