Those first 2 Albums are the goat of all time. Rhoads Daisley and Kerslake rule!!!
Two great albums that ozzy never cake close to approaching again
Blizzard of ozz recorded two masterpieces
I agree with both comments 💯!
Those were the albums, and those were the days...
@@1wickedgrooveJake was good but he was nothing compared to Randy.
He could play right up there with Randy,Zach Tony is or Brad. Got it
@ehcastaffoptions850 Jake can play. Lot's of people can play. But all I heard was mostly a lot of fast and furious notes without direction. Like he was winging it. His solos just never seemed to be thought out to me. To where Randy's always did. And always fit into the song. Randy's solos were just over the top cool to my ears!
The Blizzard band should absolutely be in the hall of fame. Best band ever.
as Dave Mustaine said in the 40th deathversary issue of Guitar World dedicated to Randall William Rhoads: everyone thought they were destined to be the biggest band in the world, seemingly nothing could stop them......
Except Darth Hideous...and her horrible decision making, one of the worst managers in history. Blizzard of ozz, imagine if they were managed Ed Leffler, Q Prime or Rod Smallwood
She did not have that band ready to ball for MTV< she fires one of the best rhythm sections of in history, which benefited URiah Heep greatly
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle As much as I love Tommy and Rudy I never understood that decision. Those albums would have not been those albums without that combo. Bob and Lee were perfect. I believe Ozzy owes everything to Bob and Randy. Those are Bobs songs at least the lyrics. I almost wish they would have gotten together with Ronnie James Dio. I think that would have been cool. That being said both Blizzard and Diary are Masterpieces and Randy is still my guitar hero.
I have seen concert posters of Saxon with special guests Blizzard of ozz. I've heard Ozzy say on film that he'd quit Sabbath. Does this mean Ozzy is a liar? Hmm...
Those two albums are, and have been my favorites, because they are absolutely perfect and amazing. I also love the growth you can hear in Randy's playing in such a short time period. I've always asked myself, how in the hell did Ozzy get so f'n lucky? And then want to shit all over that luck by tearing the band in half? Amazing.
Daisley rules!!!
Bob is a national treasure in music on any continent
arguably the most underappreciated rock musician of all time
I'm thankful that Bob and Lee were able to mentor Randy!
There is a guy who alleges to be Bob daisley's friend or at least knows him and he says Bob told him randy needed little mentoring, he needed advice on the business side. But in the studio said Randy was very knowledgeable and knew what he wanted.
Randy did back Ozzy off when he told Max not to double or triple track parts and Randy blew through that stop sign and then Ozzy backed off when he heard the final result
Funny, Dio left Rainbow and Daisley left Rainbow… because of Blackmore, four incredible albums were born: “Blizzard of Ozz”, “Dairy of a Madman”, “Heaven and Hell” and “Mob Rules”
Ozzy grtting fired from Sabbath is one of the greatest days in metal history...birth of Blizzard of ozz and Dio Sabbath
I wouldn't have Mob Rules on that list.
Lol. But your mom loves that album. @@guillermo3564
If Ozzy doesn't profusely apologize and thank guys like Bob, Randy, Lee and Jake E Lee...and admit it was a band during his induction speech then I've lost all faith in that guy.
Bob's played with Icons during his career, Ritchie Blackmore, Ronnie James Dio, Cozy Powell, Randy Rhoads, Gary Moore, some of the very best!!
Uriah Heep
Tony Iommi
Jon Lord
Bob might be the most underappreciated musician in rock history
@@Mike-aka747 the eternal idol was fantastic
If it were not for Randy on those first 2 solo albums they wouldn't have had the impact for Ozzy's history. He was destined to make those albums legendary and revive Ozzy. You plug in any of those other guitar players and would not have had that impact. Not Jake, Zak, or anyone. Randy was destined to meet Bob, Lee and create these.
Randy wasn't on ozzy solo albums ...
Randy and Bob and Lee helped create the magic along with Ozzy. But as Bob said Ozzy needed a world class player and that's Randy
*Without Geezer's and Bob's lyrics, would any of us even know of the name, **_Ozzy Osborne?_* 🤔
But without Ozzie's presence would there have been a black Sabbath or blizzard of Ozz? There was a magic in those two bands that wouldn't have been there if those exact member weren't in place, common denominator=Ozzy........you can bash him all you want and say he wasn't a key component of those machines, Bob and Lee were established musicians when they met Ozzy but the rest of them were nobody's just like you're making Ozzy out to be, that guy has contributed more to rock n roll than anyone probably ever will, just sayin.......
Besides your comment along with most of them is fueling the discontent and bullshit between those two sides, imagine what would come out of them possibly reuniting, maybe if the blizzard community stops taking sides they'll take the hint, at this stage in their lives there's no reason they aren't getting together and maybe doing some small shows, stranger things have happened but it can't start with shit comments being posted
You took the words right out of my mouth.😂
Without Ozzy would we have ever heard of Geezer or Daisley? It’s a silly question because destiny brought these musicians together and we are all better for it. Sabbath changed music forever and Ozzy was the singer that belted out the line “What is this that stands before me” to kick off the first album and influence generations of musicians. Don’t downplay just how enormous Ozzy was on music.
@jackiewilliams4854 Bob daisley was in Rainbow and uriah jeep so yes. Tony iommi is the only reason we know who John osbourne is
Ozzy’s a fraud and he needs to own up to stuff. He did melodies and yes his vocals....but he didn't write the music
Bob’s always a great guest!
Absolutely! Hope you are doing well
Sadly learned Randy Rhoads brother has had a very serious stroke.....thoughts and prayers
Positive Vibes
Bob, Lee and Randy were destiny.
👍
And Sharon was destiny's interference she is a POS and broke up a great band
Izzy’s voice is an amazing treasure. So are his bands. It’s a very special legacy. Ozzy didn’t happen in a bubble. Even in grade school I was into the combined efforts of the evolution of members. Bob Daisley rules!
Ozzy happened because of genius songwriters who carried his ass
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle they road his coat tails and are nothing without him.
@@BillNelson-OU812 how are great musicians nothing without a bumbling clown who did not write, play an instrument or do lyrics?
They could write songs without him and did on Diary. Iommi did not need Ozzy.
Ozzy is the epitome of a guy who rode coattails being the least talented guy in any group he was in
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle then why didn’t they do it on their own? It’s Rock’n’Roll, not Jazz.
@@BillNelson-OU812 so you think they were going to move on from Ozzy after writing the music? what's the question?
Ozzy needed them more than they needed him
Great Interview ..
Ozzy always cane up with brilliant vocal melodies though. He may have not played an instrument, but his the way he sang them made them songs as great and unique as they are. Doesn't matterif he didn't write most of the lyrics, he got the best out of them, and to me that's equally as integral.
Many if those melodies were based on the guitar. On Diary the musuc was so above his pay grade, Lee kerslake had to demo melodies
he mostly just sang along with the chords, listen to Iron man to see this. Lee Kerslake came up with the vocal melody to Flying High again
Great interview
did you hear the whole thing?
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle Yes i did i always love a bob daisley interview he has played with so many of the greats and he has some great story's🙂🙏
For years i've felt like Ozzy was a case study for failing upwards in life, Black Sabbath got DIO which eventually got us Rainbow Rising band and the Last in Line band some of the greatest music ever recorded. and Ozzy married a record execs daughter who burned through musicians for 30 years hazing them off the tour and then blackballing them from a career when they no longer suited the Osbournes purpose and then parlaying that brand into a reality TV show. R&RHF has long been a joke since inception and this move fits their pattern of historical revision, erasure, and censorship, perfectly. Ozzy is a drug addled corporate controlled marionette and a bad friend and that will always be a real drag on the amazing music he and so many forgotten people gave us.
Ozzy is a guy who won the music loterry, he could not write, did not play an instrument....but found himself surrounded by incredibly gifted musicians repeatedly
🤘🏻 🌟 🤘
For many years now, when someone asks me who my favorite band is, I always say The Blizzard of Ozz, never Ozzy Osbourne. That would imply I am a fan of all Ozzy & his later solo albums, and that definitely is not true. Bark at the Moon has a place in my heart, The Ultimate Sin less so. After that there were some good songs with Zakk but the persona and musical direction that Zakk morphed into is such a turnoff to me that I never listen to his Ozzy-era albums. Never. On a side note, it is strange to me that people think the two Jake albums are better than the two Randy albums. Anyhow, Ozzy owes his long solo career (which as Daisley points out, did not start out as a solo career) to the Blizzard of Ozz band, particularly Randy Rhoads, whose instantly classic guitar riffs and histrionics gave Ozzy the lift he needed, a lift so great that it sustained him for the next 40+ years. And yet Sharon (if you believe that Ozzy was not involved) had the truly evil impulse to rerecord those first two Blizzard albums to spite Daisley and Kerslake out of their royalties. If Ozzy deserves an award, it is for surviving so many years with Sharon. Bob, if you read this, thanks for the lyrics, they were "symbolic, of course."
you are a Blizzard of ozz truther supporter , aka B.o.o.t.s I am one too.
People absolutely need to know it was a band, most of the musicians who lived that time refer to it as Blizzard of Ozz, as Dave Mustaine said: Blizzard of ozz seemed destined to be the biggest band in the world......that's how good they were
Bob Daisley wrote the killer bass lines for ozzy . Love Rudy Sarzo, but you gotta give Bob the credit here and Lee. Definitely have to remember your roots without these guys. Ozzy wouldn’t be who he is.
Bob was a founding member of Blizzard of ozz...and key contributor on the songs and especially with the lyrics
This whole project owed it's success to Randy Rhoads. Take his contribution away and you have nothing. Would have flopped, died and Ozz would be know for his time in Sabbath only.
Bob and Randy made the magic, Lee helped on diary which is arguably the greatest album ever written.
Randy did the riffs, arranged the music..along with Bob who helped witb bridges and did the lyrics.
Bob's contributions cannot be overlooked.
Jake E Lee gives a nod to Randy saving Ozzy's career.
Yes Sir ☮️
Bob and Lee not being inducted based solely on their contributions to the greatest 2 albums ever committed to tape is a crime punishable by death......complete sacrilege......
I view ozzy getting inducted as a nod to Blizzard of ozz and if he doesn't properly come clean and thank Randy, Lee, Bob and Evan Jake E Lee, he's a bigger POS than I currently think he is..
Great band Ozzy was simply the frontman
Ozzy has always alleged he and Randy wrote most of the first album before Bob was in the band, clearly lie
Blizzard of ozz is the eponymous debut...its the top selllung metal debut in mudic history. The album cover is the name of the band ..ozzy was allowed to have his name above the band. He paid for the album so the band agreed. Its like Ritchie blackmore's rainbow...same concept.
Just watched the Os-bourne's podcast & he was genuinely embarrassed being nominated & kept repeating 'I don't deserve it' - we all know who controls that clan:/
why watch the Osbournes revisionist history anything....
Sharon knew he was getting nominated and decided to openly campaign....dog and pony show
Ozzy should not be inducted into the Rof if Bob, Randy and even Lee isnt but I do believe sharon should be inducted, (Correction) Indicted for the fleecing of countless musicians including the aforementioned along with others like Carmine Apoice, Jake E Lee and countless others. They say her old man was a Tyrant and horrible person. The apple didn't fall, well u know the rest
Ozzy should go in with his second band, Blizzard of ozz.
I am eager to hear his acceptance speech and how contrite and honest he is
He needs to laud Bob Daisley and apologize. And Lee Kerslake and Jake E Lee.
General Contractors get all the credit for building a house when they never swing a hammer! Ozzy formed the band or was the reason for a band in the first place. So I get it. I do agree the rest of the band was more talented. Great first albums.
he formed the band with Randy Rhoads and Bob Daisley, Ozzy broke ground the other guys did the heavy lifting and then Ozzy let his skank wife ruin the band
Nothing can touch the two Blizzard of ozz albums
It’s too bad that Ozzy never got to record with Bernie torme Bernie only lasted 7 dates on the diary of a madman tour in 1982.
OZZY screws over everybody. Except Sharon.
7:00 Ozzy was finished after Black Sabbath, he was completely irrelevant. Randy Rhoads and Bob Daisley changed all that for him. Ozzy owes them an awful lot.
Us fans that were around at the time Blizzard came out ....ALL UNDERSTOOD THAT WE WERE GETTING AN OZZY SOLO ALBUM.....NO MATTER HOW YOU SLICE IT....WE DIDN'T CARE OR THINK IT WAS THE BLIZZARD OF OZZ !!!!.....FUCKING FACTS.....
But that's Osbournes revisionist history and no one should refer to it as a solo album that's factually incorrect and it perpetuates a lie
I remember someone bringing the boom box into the cafeteria at school and put Blizzard on and the vibe at the table was "who the hell is this guitar player??". Ozzy's name definitely drew you in, but the songs and musicianship is what kept you there.
@@profsteel8217 right, and anyone who saw that band live realized where all eyes shifted during songs.
Ozzy's voice and image turned a lot of people off and they disregarded the music just because of him sometimes. But when I got a chance to play the music to an open mindl even my father, the reception was positive to the music. As my dad said: it sounds good until O squared opens his mouth
Paul Stanley is so FOS , as usual . He wouldn't even have Ace Frehely and Peter Chriss at the Kiss RNRHOF Induction which they clearly deserved to be there and play Kiss Songs . He had Posers like Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer in their Ace and Peter KISS Halloween Costumes . But Paul expects Ozzy to have All of his Minimum Wage Employee Musicians he has had in the last 44 Years that he ripped off , to attend his RNR Roll HOF induction ? Sharon Osbourne won't allow that .
We can't really use Ozzy's lack of Lyric / Music Composition Writing against him as a RNRHOFer . Elvis Didn't write nothing in his entire Music Career whether it was Lyrics or Composition .
that is not Paul stanley that is some loser hack using fake gloss in a comment section.
Posers..you mean professional musicians who were not drugged out crybabies?
minimu wage? Except Bob, Randy and Lee were paid as founders of the band. And Randy was even offered a management fee.
How about this concept ? Ozzy pay for them to attend the induction since he owes them money
Elvis never wrote a song or played a note on any of his records. Tell me; Paul-does HE deserve to be in?
Jesus. He’s growing tiresome.
who is growing tiresome? Ozzy's lies?
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle both Geezer and Bob have said, in other interviews, that Ozzy was great at contributing vocal melodies to their lyrics. That’s writing.
And that aside, Ozzy’s career has been huge,y successful and pro;infix-he deserves to be in the RRHOF by sheer influence alone.
@@glengamble526 no it's not Ozzy could not write a song if his life depended on it, he hummed melodies that the guitar basically wrote....
Ozzy benefited from great musicians carrying his ass....
Ozzy is nothing without the songwriters which he is not
Ozzy gets way 2 much credit, the bands he was with wrote everything especially Geezer, Tony, Ozzy couldn't write Cat if u spotted him the C and the T
If it’s the real Paul Stanley I would be careful since recently kiss has been accused of not really playing live for real. You can listen to Eddie Van Halens son saying this.
it's not it is some insecure hack using stupid gloss.....no one with self respect using fake names in a forum. Paul Stanley is not hanging out on Eddie Trunk's webpage
OZZY wrote nothing on those 1st two albums !🙄👎
he did the melodies on Blizzard of ozz.....and in songwriting copyright that is viewed as half of the song.
Now,. how intricate were those melodies as not defined by the guitar...he also threw out ideas.
Ozzy alleges, that he and Randy wrote a lot of the first album that he would hum ideas and Randy would write underneath it.
Now if you listen to Tommy Aldridge, Ozzy was so on drugs if he hummed an idea and you asked him to repeat it seconds later he could not replicate it.
Ozzy may not have been a lyricist but he definitely has an instantly recognisable voice. He wrote great original vocal melodies. Randy was also phenomenal. But please stop the Bob Daisley is a genius rubbish. The only thing he is famous for is what he’s done with Ozzy. If he was such an outstanding writer all the other Ozzy albums should’ve been huge also but they weren’t. I like him. I like his bass playing but give me a break. He even tried to take credit for his suggestions on what songs to play on Gary Moores albums.
Shut up and retire quietly
Ozzy has an iconic voice, but make no mistake about it, you watch any live video or hear the bootlegs with Blizzard of ozz, people were coming to hear great musicians execute like Randy ....
Bob Daisley is a genius, he and Randy formed a genius songwriting tandem and who carried Ozzy through the next 4 albums after Randy died, Bob mentored Jake and Zakk,
Bob has played with so many great musicians, especially guitarists is that a fluke. Who is the guy who told Gary moore to do a Blues album...Bob.
Who helped write the best 80s Sabbath album that did not have Dio on it? Bob Daisley.
No ignorant music fan, he is only well known to you for Ozzy. Some of Uriah Heep's best stuff has the blizzard of ozz rhythm section.
Amazing coincidence Rainbow's best album arguably has....Bob Daisley on it.
Bob is arguably the most underappreciated rock musician of all time
Stop being an insecure hack and respect the all time greats like Bob
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle Dave if you stopped at the second last paragraph I’d have no problem.
Let me start by saying I’m a massive Randy Rhoads fan as are you. I’m also a fan of Bobs playing too.
But because someone doesn’t share your exact opinion means I’m a hack? Silly you.
Bob played with many great guitarists for one reason. He’s a great bass player. But the reality is Bob is most famous for two things. His association with Randy and Ozzy and his constant whinging about not being acknowledged enough for his work with them. Nothing he did before or since has come close. Which should speak volumes. Many guitarists he has worked with have all said he’s a great bass player. Not one of them has ever called him a genius. Only he does. He has tickets on himself. And you ! Poor little soul. You’re like a little woke university student. If we don’t share your exact opinion you get your knickers in a knot and start hurling insults. I clear sign of ignorance. Grow up
@@johneee2402 you should have no problem either way as I only promoted reality.
Suggesting Bob was not integral or is not a genius on some level is absolutely a hack-ish comment. There is no one who is part of Rhoads nation or a Blizzard of ozz truther who should not put Daisley on a pedastal next to Randy.
He is most famous.....it does not mean he is not known for other things. Every artist is going to be known for one thing above all else. Randy is known for his time with Blizzard of ozz yet he was founder of Quiet Riot...
If you got ripped off, called names. had your music re-recorded to avoid being paid. where would you be? I would be ripping the Osbournes every chance I got. under no condition should the Osbournes had the bass and drums re-recorded to spite Bob. Bob got screwed over bigtime they cheated him, Look at their act starting with Diary , not even originally crediting Bob and Lee. Wouldn't you be pissed. Bob is fighting to keep his name in the conversation because the Osbournes want him erased from history . They are the ones in the wrong here not Bob
Bob has done a lot of great music since and prior to Blizzard of ozz albums? The Uriah Heep albums with him are awesome, the Gary Moore Stuff is fantastic. Randy was a fan of Bob's band Widowmaker even .
Because the Blizzard of ozz albums are among the greatest of all time does not mean what he did outside of that is any less impressive.
You should be more supportive of Bob and ripping the Osbournes
John Michael Osbourne does not belong in the rock n roll. But Nazareth featuring Dan McCafferty belongs in
He does with Sabbath and Blizzard of ozz
