In a recent interview on Chris Jericho’s podcast, “Talk Is Jericho, Red Hot Chili Peppers’ drummer, Chad Smith, revealed that a galaxy of stars will be playing in Ozzy Osbourne’s next studio album. Except from Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Zakk Wylde, who were previously reported check out who else is playing…
“We’ve got Robert Trujillo (Metallica) playing on some songs, who’s been in Ozzy’s band. Duff’s (McKagan / Guns N’ Roses) on a couple again. Tony Iommi and Ozzy have never collaborated outside of Black Sabbath; Tony sent us a bunch of riffs and we took what we thought was the best of ’em, which was fucking great. So Andy (Watt / guitars, producer) on the bass doing fucking great. It’s fucking got everything. It’s got all the stuff that you would want. Ozzy loves it.
Then Eric Clapton plays a fucking wah-wah Cream-type solo. Then Jeff Beck is on two songs. Mike McCready’s (Pearl Jam) on a track. Josh Homme, my neighbor from Queens Of The Stone Age, solos on a track, and then Zakk Wylde is on the record as well, all over it. So it’s like if you’re a guitar player… pretty fucking good.”
