Trust Me, I’m Dr. Ozzy: Advice from Rock’s Ultimate Survivor
Ozzy Osbourne, read by Frank Skinner. Hachette Audio, unabridged, six CDs, 6.5 hrs., $29.98 ISBN 978-1-61113-878-8
A legendary rock star turned advice columnist, Osbourne offers his unique take on life’s everyday problems and predicaments in this hilarious collection of his best pieces from the pages of the Sunday Times and Rolling Stone. Although it’s slightly disappointing that Osborne himself doesn’t read this audio edition, Frank Skinner—who also narrated the author’s memoir, I Am Ozzy—does a commendable job without resorting to a stuttering, marble-mouthed impression of the famously incomprehensible rocker. Skinner also deftly voices the many advice-seekers’ often inane letters, which Osbourne is only too happy to answer in his own special way. Laugh-out-load funny and surprisingly informative, this audio is a must for fans. A Grand Central hardcover. (Oct.)
