Black Sabbath icon Ozzy Osbourne has a long history of controversial moments in his career, spanning over more than five decades, that earned him the title of ‘Prince of Darkness.’ Although the musician’s track record is filled with unbelievable events that live up to that name, the fans pretty much do the rest of the job in terms of building a reputation.

Notably, the album tracks from Blizzard of Ozz and Diary of a Madman included in the set are taken from the 2002 remasters of those albums, for which the original drum and bass tracks were replaced with new recordings by Osbourne's then-current bassist Robert Trujillo and drummer Mike Bordin, as a management response to legal action by original bassist Bob Daisley and drummer Lee Kerslake for unpaid royalty fees. The cover versions were recorded for this box set compilation, but were released on a stand-alone album entitled Under Cover later in the year. The first two CDs are Osbourne's solo work containing various studio recordings, live tracks, b-sides, demos and outtakes, and the last two CDs are collaborations on disc three and cover songs on disc four.
Prince of Darkness is a box set of four CDs by Ozzy Osbourne released in 2005.
