19-09-2022

Following the release of “Patient Number 9” last Friday on Sony Records, Ozzy Osbourne is providing an inside look into the making of the album with a three-part video series featuring interviews and in-studio clips with some of featured performers. Debuted last Friday (September 16) and for the next two consecutive Fridays, the series includes exclusive interviews with Ozzy and the album’s producer Andrew WattSharon OsbourneTony Iommi (BLACK SABBATH), Ozzy‘s longtime guitarist Zakk WyldeRobert Trujillo (METALLICA), Chad Smith (RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS), Duff McKagan (GUNS N’ ROSES) and Mike McCready (PEARL JAM) also offer insight into the making of the album. The series was created and produced by Jack Osbourne with interviews conducted by British journalist Phil Alexander.

Watch the first part below.

Produced by Watt (who handled the same duties on 2020’s “Ordinary Man”) and released on Epic, the new LP marks Osbourne‘s 13th solo studio album. It’s heavy, it’s hard-hitting, it’s historic — it’s everything you’d want from an Ozzy Osbourne record and maybe more.

Watch the recently released video of ‘One Of Those Days‘, featuring a solo by Eric Clapton below.

Watch the previously released “Nothing Feels Right” , featuring Zakk Wylde below. Also watch the previously released “Patient Number 9” featuring Jeff Beck below.

“Patient Number 9” was written by OzzyWattRobert Trujillo (METALLICA),Chad Smith (RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS) and Ali Tamposi and features a riveting solo from legendary guitarist Jeff Beck. The video marks the first collaboration from the project with artist and comic book creator Todd McFarlane. It is highlighted by McFarlane‘s signature illustrations interspersed with live Ozzy vignettes in the role of “Patient Number 9,” which the revolutionary creative force in the world of comics and toys also filmed. In addition, this is the first-ever video to incorporate Ozzy‘s artwork: his hand-drawn demons were animated and can be seen during the Jeff Beck solo in the song.
