The group will perform their classic 1971 album, Fragile, in its entirety this fall as part of the band’s ongoing Album Series. In addition to their breakthrough album, Yes will also perform other favorites from their long career.

Fragile was released in the band’s native U.K. in November 1971 with a January 1972 release in the U.S. It became Yes’ first Top 10 album in the States, reaching No. 4 thanks to support from the songs “Roundabout” (a Top 15 hit), “Long Distance Runaround” and “Heart of the Sunrise.”

The feature-length documentary Ozzy Osbourne: No Escape From Now will premiere on Paramount+  on Tuesday, October 7th.

The documentary, directed by Tania Alexander, was produced in collaboration with the Osbourne family. THe film chronicles Osbourne‘s six-year struggle to recuperate from a devastating 2019 fall; it is described as “an intimate look into the 76-year-old rock legend’s personal life since the injury that has colored much of his life in the years since.” Osbourne announced in 2023 that he had been forced to permanently cancel the European leg of his No More Tours II outing and retire from touring after a series of health problems which he damaged his spine. That incident was followed by diagnoses of Parkinson’s disease, and emphysema.

A press release stated: “This is Ozzy Osbourne like you’ve never seen before: an honest, warm and deeply personal portrait of one of the greatest rock stars of all-time, detailing how the singer’s world shuddered to a halt six years ago, forcing him to contemplate who he really is, confront his own mortality and question whether or not he can ever perform on stage for one last time. Addressing his health issues and impact of his Parkinson’s diagnosis, the film showcases the central role music continues to play in Ozzy’s life – also proving his mischievous sense of humor remains resolutely intact despite it all.”

Ozzy: No Escape From Now also documents his journey to play the Back To The Beginning show at Villa Park in his hometown of Birmingham on July 5, 2025. The documentary was in production prior to his death, and was never intended to be released posthumously (Osbourne passed away on July 22, 2025). According to a press release, director Alexander began filming the doc in 2022, during recording sessions for Ozzy’s Patient Number 9 album. Ozzy said: “My fans have supported me for so many years, and I really want to thank them and say a proper goodbye to them. That is what the Villa Park show is about…The last six years have been full of some of the worst times I’ve been through. There’s been times when I thought my number was up. But making music and making two albums saved me. I’d have gone nuts without music.”

The documentary will also feature Ozzy’s wife/manager Sharon Osbourne and the couple’s children: Aimee, Kelly and Jack. In addition, many of the singer’s friends and bandmates are featured, including: Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath), Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses), Robert Trujillo and James Hetfield (Metallica), Billy Idol, Maynard James Keenan (Tool), Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Ozzy’s longstanding guitarist Zakk Wylde, Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine), Mike Inez (Alice In Chains), Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins), producer Andrew Watt, and friend/musician Billy Morrison.

Sharon Osbourne shared: “This film is an honest account of what has happened to Ozzy during the last few years. It shows how hard things have been for him and the courage he has shown while dealing with a number of serious health issues, including Parkinson’s. It’s about the reality of his life now. We have worked with a production team we trust and have allowed them the freedom to tell the story openly. We hope that story will inspire people that are facing similar issues to Ozzy.”

Elton John, Paul McCartney, Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood all appear on “The End Continues,” the soundtrack to the sequel film “Spinal Tap II: The End Continues.”

The album was released in conjunction with the movie’s debut and features nine all-new songs, as well as four new takes on classic Spinal Tap tracks. The 13-track set includes nine brand new songs and four reinvented favorites.

Elton John contributes to two songs on the album, including the band’s popular cut, “Stonehenge.” “Stonehenge” was originally released on the group’s first album, This Is Spinal Tap, alongside the initial 1984 film, directed by Rob Reiner. In the cult classic, Spinal Tap orders a massive, 18-foot replica of the Stonehenge but instead receives an 18-inch one.

The reimagined rendition of “Stonehenge” arrives alongside a music video, in which John appears after the song’s opening monologue, as he rises from below the stage at a piano to perform the most of the lead vocals. See the video of ‘Stonehenge’ – HERE.
