Black Sheep is a double album by Julian Cope, released on Head Heritage in 2008. It is Cope's twentyfourth solo album and features 11 protest songs across two half-hour CDs.[3] Each CD represents "one side of an LP" with their own titles, Return of the Native and Return of the Alternative.[4] Cope described the album as "a musical exploration of what it is to be an outsider in modern Western Culture".[5]
