Bark at the Moon is the third studio album by English heavy metal singer Ozzy Osbourne, released in November 1983 in the US[6] and on 2 December 1983 in the UK.

[8] A commercial success, Bark at the Moon peaked at number 19 on the Billboard album chart[9] and within several weeks of release was certified gold for over 500,000 sales in the United States.

[10] In the UK, it was the third of four Osbourne albums to attain silver certification (60,000 units sold) by the British Phonographic Industry, achieving this in January 1984.

However, guitarist Jake E. Lee maintains that he composed a significant amount of the album's music but was cheated out of his writing and publishing claims by Osbourne's wife and manager, Sharon.

Lee claims he signed the contract because he had no legal representation and because Sharon threatened to fire him and have another guitarist re-record his parts if he refused.

Composed by Daisley, the lyrics to the song "Now You See It (Now You Don't)" were a pointed rebuke aimed at Osbourne's wife and manager Sharon, who had fired him from the band in 1981.

Shortly after Bark at the Moon's 1983 release, a Canadian man named James Jollimore murdered a woman and her two children after allegedly listening to the album.

However, Jake E. Lee has claimed that he and Bob Daisley wrote material for the album but were cheated out of writing credits by Ozzy's manager/wife, Sharon Osbourne.
