| | Ozzy Osbourne Under Cover CD Ozzy Osbourne Discography of CDs
 (9 Customer Reviews)
This is a DualDisc, which contains a CD on one side of the disc and a DVD on the other.
Ozzy Osbourne is revered as many things: a heavy-metal icon, a reality-TV star, and godhead of the longest running rock festival tour in the history of the business. The Ozzy branding is a multimedia phenomenon, leaving nothing undone - except perhaps, until now, an all-covers album paying tribute to songs near and dear to John "Ozzy" Osbourne's heart.
First served up as gravy in the PRINCE OF DARKNESS box set, UNDER COVER is now available as a stand alone release, featuring several additional tracks. Putting the Ozzy stamp on Mountain ("Mississippi Queen") and Cream ("Sunshine Of Your Love") rockers seems logical enough, although some metalheads may be surprised by the lighter fare. Ozzy expresses his admiration for his beloved Beatles with two John Lennon solo cuts, as well as a poignant version of "In My Life." Also left off the earlier release but found on UNDER COVER, are Ozzified takes on Joe Walsh's "Rocky Mountain Way" and the Moody Blues' "Go Now." While shred guitar devotees may find the absence of Zakk Wylde disappointing, supporting the Ozzman are capable metal stalwarts Jerry Cantrell (Alice In Chains) on guitar, Chris Wyse (The Cult) on bass, and longtime Ozzy drummer Mike Bordin (Faith No More).
This dualdisc includes the 13 track album on the CD side, and on the DVD side, the entire album in enhanced LPCM stereo, video, and Dinner With Ozzy - exclusive footage of Ozzy telling tales of his storied career!
Personnel include: Ozzy Osbourne (vocals); Jerry Cantrell (guitar); Chris Wyse (bass guitar); Mike Bordin (drums); Gregg Bissonette, Ian Hunter, James Mastro, Jim Cox, Joe Bonamassa, Leslie West, Mark Hudson, Michael Landau, Paul Santos, Robert Randolph, Steve Dudas, Sarah Hudson, Bogie Bowles, Tabby Callaghan, Bruce Sugar.

Open your mind and enjoy Ozzy having fun. Classic rock and pop songs given the Oz treatment. None of them are oustanding, none of them are pants, all of them bring a smile. Don't expect Iron Man Oz or Paranoid Oz and you wont be disappointed.

 Great but something Wyldely missing!!
Being an Ozzy fan since Blizzard of Oz,you gotta give him credit for still busting his butt doing what he loves to do.But how would these songs really sound with the BEST heavy metal guitar player around today!With respect to Dimebag,these two are the last of a dying breed of great players in my generation (im 39)other than Lynch,Eddie,Randy(R.I.P).When Zakk Plays I get chills,thinking My god where did this guy come from!Kids today need to listen to these guys rather than the flatted 5th tune down to low c,and why so muddy sounding Jerry,youre NOT Zakk so dont try.Stick to your Cry Baby your good at that.But I still reccomend giving it a listen!

Ozzy Lennon!
It's worth the price of the CD for "In my life" and "Go Now" alone. The rest of the CD is excellent, although I could've thought of some better songs for the Oz to sink his teeth into.

 Ozzy Lite
Let’s face it, Ozzy has never been the greatest vocalist. But you could always count on him to put out albums full of catchy songs and heavy guitar. I was looking forward to hearing Ozzy cover such classics as “Mississippi Queen” and “Sunshine Of Your Love.” Unfortunately, these covers left me sorely disappointed. I place the majority of the blame on the production. The guitar seems to get buried in the mix by the vocals. “Mississippi Queen,” in particular, takes a great song and ruins it by bringing layers of background vocals to the forefront, drowning out a classic riff. And this arrangement of “Sympathy For The Devil” leaves me wondering if Ozzy is gearing up to make the switch to a lounge act. The whole album just feels like Ozzy lite.

| | Quiet Riot - 89' Live In Japan DVD (1989)
Under Cover
 $7.15
89' Live in Japan was filmed during a tumultuous period for Quiet Riot. With Paul Shortino at the helm, the band quickly displayed their versatility and resilience, and rocked crowds the world over. This footage serves as a glimpse into an interesting chapter of one of the greatest Metal bands of all time. Bonus Video - "Stay With Me." Track list: Party All Night, I'm Falling, Stay With Me Tonight, Run To You, The Wild And The Young, The Joker, Drum Solo, Coppin' A Feel, King Of The Hill, Cum On Feel The Noise.
Taking the heavy metal world by storm in the early 1980s with their stadium-rock anthem "Cum on Feel the Noize," Quiet Riot's career mirrored that old adage epitomized by rock and roll: "live fast and die young." Rising quickly to heights of stardom that shocked both the public and the band themselves, their trajectory was fraught with obstacles that prevented them from assuming iconic status in rock history. Frontman Kevin DuBrow, who supremely embodied the rock star bad attitude with his loud mouth and quick temper, had difficulty dealing with success, and even more difficulty dealing with the failure experienced ...
| | Aerosmith Rockin' The Joint CD (2005) DualDisc
Under Cover
$16.69
This is a DualDisc, which contains a CD on one side of the disc and a DVD on the other.
Captured in 2002 at a rare club appearance in Las Vegas, ROCKIN' THE JOINT presents a live set that in large part pays homage to Aerosmith's early days. In support of the full-length JUST PUSH PLAY, the swaggering Bostonians break in new cuts "Beyond Beautiful" and "Light Inside"--both fitting neatly into the band's canon. Concert staple "Same Old Song And Dance" features a fine midsection vamp, followed by gleaming renditions of "No More No More" and the moody "Seasons Of Wither." "Draw The Line" spotlights Joe Perry's bluesy slide work while the requisite (if not sappy) power ballad "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" is handmade for a swaying crowd of late-to-the-party fans.
The 'smiths then dust off Bull Moose Jackson's risque boogie "Big Ten Inch Record," pushing into an extended jam of "Rattlesnake Shake." ...
