OZZY OSBOURNE TO RELEASE NEW EPIC COLLECTION OF GREATEST HITS SPANNING HIS LEGENDARY CAREER This summer's OzzFest was the most successful, top-grossing summer festival, beating out contenders Lollapalooza, H.O.R.D.E., and the Lilith Fair. Highlights included an electrifying solo set by OzzFest founder Ozzy Osbourne, followed by the long-awaited reunion of his former band, Black Sabbath. These landmark performances ignited public demand for an Ozzy retrospective. On November 11, 1997, Epic Records proudly presents "The OZZman Cometh" a 15-song collection commemorating Ozzy Osbourne's illustrious career. In addition to some of Ozzy's most memorable recordings as a solo artist, including "Crazy Train," "Bark At The Moon" and "No More Tears," The OZZman Cometh features two rare and previously-unissued basement tapes from a 1970 Black Sabbath rehearsal, "Black Sabbath" and "War Pigs." Also included is another gem from the Osbourne vaults, "Back On Earth" ^V a previously unreleased song from the Ozzmosis recording sessions. Rounding out the set is a bonus disc featuring 1970 basement tapes of "Fairies Wear Boots" and "Behind the Wall of Sleep," along with an 18-minute interview with Ozzy himself. (See below for complete track listing.) Ozzy is currently on a worldwide promotional tour in support of The OZZman Cometh, and will soon head back into the studio to record the follow up to Ozzmosis.
