Ozzy covers Lennon, Walsh on new album

By Jonathan Cohen

NEW YORK (Billboard) – Newly recorded covers of John
Lennon’s “Woman,” Joe Walsh’s “Rocky Mountain Way” and the
Moody Blues’ “Go Now” will be found on the Ozzy Osbourne
collection “Under Cover,” due November 1 as a Dualdisc.

The remaining 10 cuts of the Epic Records set were released
earlier this year on the “Under Covers” disc of Osbourne’s
boxed set “Prince of Darkness.”

Among them are Mountain’s “Mississippi Queen,” which
features that band’s guitarist, Leslie West, King Crimson’s
“21st Century Schizoid Man,” the Jeff Beck Group’s “Hi Ho
Silver Lining,” Mott The Hoople’s “All the Young Dudes” and the
Rolling Stones’ “Sympathy for the Devil.”

On the DVD side, fans will be treated to the featurette
“Dinner With Ozzy and Friends,” which finds him regaling his
son Jack and Motorhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister with tales of
rock’n'roll excess. A video for Ozzy’s cover of the Beatles’
“In My Life” is also included.
