Ozzy Osbourne Unveils Details on 2012 Record Store Day Releases

It’s here: Record Store Day 2012! The annual holiday takes place on the third Saturday of every April, and it strives to bring together independently owned record stores to celebrate the art of music.

Thankfully, some rock and metal heavyweights are getting in on the Record Store Day madness and releasing some exclusive sets just for today.

A big one is Ozzy Osbourne, who was 2011’s Record Store Day Ambassador. Mr. Osbourne will support the 5th annual event with two releases: ‘Ozzy Live,’ a double LP from 2011’s ‘Blizzard of Ozz/Diary of a Madman’ 30th Anniversary Collector Box and a 7” live take on ‘Diary of a Madman’s Ozzy song, ‘Believer.’ Both sets are limited-edition, numbered vinyl versions that offer never-before-published photos shot by Mark Weiss.
