Show Notes
March 19, 2025, marked 43 years since the tragic loss of
guitar legend Randy Rhoads, and to honor his legacy, we sit down with the
one and only Bob Daisley—the bassist and songwriter behind Ozzy
Osbourne’s Blizzard of Ozz era. Bob takes us deep inside the creation of two
of the greatest heavy metal albums ever—Blizzard of Ozz and Diary of
a Madman—revealing untold stories about Randy’s work ethic, genius,
and lasting influence.
But this interview isn’t just about Ozzy—Bob’s six-decade
career spans some of the most legendary bands in rock history, from Rainbow
and Uriah Heep to Black Sabbath and beyond. We talk about his songwriting
contributions, working with Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Gary
Moore, and why his time with Ozzy came to an end.
Whether you’re a die-hard Ozzy Osbourne fan, a
guitarist inspired by Randy Rhoads or just a metalhead who loves
hearing first-hand stories from the legends, this episode is a
must-listen.
