The folks behind Record Store Day have spoken, and declared Ozzy Osbourne as the official ambassador for Record Store Day 2011.
And that’s not all. For the Big Day, Ozzy plans to release a special 7” single (on vinyl) as well as full-length 180 gram vinyl versions of his classic albums, Diary Of A Madman and Blizzard Of Ozz, which celebrated its 30th anniversary last year.
Unheard studio work as well as historic live material will be added to Legacy Editions of these releases and a Deluxe box set – which will also feature a one-hour documentary, demos, a coffee table book, memorabilia reproductions and a replica cross – straight from Ozzy’s neck!
There is a great video of Ozzy summoning the masses to independent record stores across the nation on April 16th here.
