from Metal Mayhem ROC: Your go to source for everything metal. · host Vernomatic Productions
March 19, 2025, marks 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.
