'I've always got demons': OzzyOsbourne on his new album 'Patient Number 9':
The week before last, the headlines should have belonged to one renowned English subject alone: Birmingham-bred Black Sabbath/Blizzard of Oz firebrand Ozzy Osbourne, who, at 73, was returning with a solid new solo album,, packed with cameos from some of the greatest guitarists in rock, like Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Mike McCready, Zakk Wylde, and his old Sabbath cohort Tony Iommi.
For now, Osbourne has a great record to promote. Produced by Jack-of-all-instrumental trades Andrew Watt,plugs each axeman in where appropriate—Beck on “A Thousand Shades” and the title track; Clapton on the bluesier “One of Those Days,” McCready on a grungier “Immortal,” Iommi on the duly bone-crunching “Degradation Rules” and“No Escape From Now”; and old associate Wylde coloring in the rest.
: Well, because of the pandemic, plus the fact that I can’t walk properly, I thought, “What can I fucking do to get my head going?” So I did a couple of albums—I did two albums in four years. And the last album? It took its toll on me, but I had to do it. But working with [producer] Andrew Watt on this was great—he’s a young kid, and he doesn’t like to mess around. He’s very energetic, and I call him the Double Monkey—he never sits still for five seconds.
