Shot in the Dark
Shot in the Dark is an EP by Ozzy Osbourne, released in 1986 on Epic. It came out in the UK and Europe the same year.
It appeared in the same year as his fourth studio album, The Ultimate Sin, which followed Bark at the Moon from 1983 and came before No Rest for the Wicked in 1988. That places the EP in the middle of his solo run, a period when he was steadily building a catalogue that began with Blizzard of Ozz in 1980.
