Eighth Star is a bootleg recording of the second solo album by Tony Iommi, recorded in 1996 with Glenn Hughes. The title "Eighth Star" isn't an official name; it was given to the album by the fans as the follow-up to the Iommi/Black Sabbath album Seventh Star. In 2004 the album was partially re-recorded and officially released as The 1996 DEP Sessions.
