OZZY OSBOURNE Bassist Talks About 'Black Rain'; Video Available

April 12, 2007

Altitude TV recently spoke to OZZY OSBOURNE/ex-ROB ZOMBIE bassist Rob "Blasko" Nicholson about the upcoming Ozzy CD, "Black Rain". Watch the two-minute video clip at YouTube.

Ozzy's first album of original material since 2001's "Down To Earth", "Black Rain" is scheduled for release on May 22 via Epic, with a single called "I Don't Want To Stop" receiving its online premiere on Friday, April 13. A sample of that song and several others from the new album are available at Ozzy.com. Other tracks set for inclusion on the CD are "Not Going Away", "Countdown's Begun", "Civilize The Universe" and "Lay Your World On Me", which was inspired by Ozzy's wife and manager Sharon Osbourne's battle with cancer not long ago.

Ozzy Osbourne recorded "Black Rain" with the band that backed him on the 2006 Ozzfest tour, consisting of guitarist Zakk Wylde, drummer Mike Bordin and Nicholson. The disc was recorded at Osbourne's new home studio, located in a guest house behind his Beverly Hills mansion.

Ozzy will headline this summer's "free" Ozzfest, beginning on July 12 in Seattle.
