Very cool. Thanks for posting!

 

[Meathead]

Cool! I hope Bob releases it all someday. Sharon and Ozzy no doubt will put a stop to it saying that it's theirs.

 

[ibenhad]

Awesome thanks. Daisley and Kerslake are one of the greatest bass/drum duos in rock history.

Bob Daisley... the main reason Ozzy ever got a solo career (sorry Randy fans... and Sharon fans, if those even exist)

That's a long shot at best...in fact I have to call it bullshit IMO. Bob wrote the lyrics, Randy composed the bulk of the music. Which of those two aspects of Ozzy's early material gets more attention? And if you've read anything about the early days, its hard to believe that the project would have ever gotten off of the ground without Sharon's management style. I can't stand her but she was the driving force behind all of it...there likely wouldn't have been anything for either Bob or Randy to contribute to without her manhandling of Ozzy. Bob was certainly crucial, but no more so than the other two you mentioned.

thanks for the laugh!

I love Bob but this is great comedy right there and yeah..trolling like bullshit

Sorry Randy fanboys, but Daisley wrote those tracks
Up to No More Tears, then Ozzy's material started to suck, weird coincidence

Daisley did not write the guitar riffs and of course had nothing to do with the guitar solos. It was actually Daisley and Rhoads for all of the music except one track on Blizzard where Kerslake co-wrote. Daisley wrote all of the lyrics and Ozzy contributed a bit on the melodies. A lot of this information is in Daisley's book "For Facts Sake".

Yes, Randy of course contributed. Daisley just gets no respect or recognition for what he did, and that was write good songs. Since he's been gone, Ozzy's career has been musically pathetic

You're simply wrong...a lot of those riffs can be heard from Randy's days in Quiet Riot (or did Daisley write that material as well?). You have no clue what you're talking about...seems to be a theme with you.

A riff doesn't make a whole song
Do you own those first 2 Quiet Riot albums? How's the songwriting on it? Crap? Yes indeed.

I agree with you as far as Ozzy's solo career being pathetic give or take a couple of LPs. It was the chemistry of Daisley and Rhoads with Kerslake pounding on the drums that made the first two LPs classic as far as the music goes!!

I highly recommend Daisley's book. It is a great read!

And neither do lyrics. It was a collaborative effort so I'm not sure why you take the position that Daisley's input was more important than Randy's...it was a joint effort. And ultimately it was the riffs and solos that brought those albums to the forefront, not the messages in the lyrics.

As for QR, yeah those songs weren't great, but Randy exhibited immense growth between then and BOO, and then again from BOO to DOAM (with very little time between them). He was on a rocket-like trajectory that unfortunately we'll never know where it might have taken him.

And as much as it pains me to say it, Sharon's importance was immense. Even after the band was formed and the songs were written, she wrestled control away from her father and promoted the project in a manner that he never would have as he had grown tired of Ozzy's antics and had essentially given up on him.

None of this is to discount Daisley's importance...rather to discount the statement that he was the "main reason" for Ozzy's solo success.

I agree with much of what you're saying
Why do I say Daisley was more important than Randy? 10 more years. I wasn't talking BOO or DOAM exclusively. I don't get the perception that he wrote lyrics only; he wrote lyrics AND music, sometimes with Randy/others, sometimes by himself

You guys all blow donkey dick...

I personally know for a fact that all those tracks were written straight from the spirit world by Jimi Hendrix...

I'll give you the longer tenure...I was referring to your comment:

Bob Daisley... the main reason Ozzy ever got a solo career

BOO and DOAM to me are what put him back on the map and launched his solo career which is why I took that position. By the time BATM and later albums came out, they were highly anticipated...the solo career had already been "got" by that point.
To your point, Daisley was certainly what allowed him to maintain success through NMT...and I agree that everything after that for the most part was garbage.

 

[Shawn Lutz]

someone needs to do a little research on Rhoads and Daisley before they spew inaccuracies

 

[sytharnia1560]

I just love how it doesn't matter what forum you are on when there is a thread about randy and the 2 albums it always turns into and ozzy sucks bob did it all. Fact is without any of the 4 guys those first 2 albums would not have sounded like they do

now back to OP .... I having been overly interested in the "grail" tapes up until now but hearing those snippets has upped my interest levels. Hearing the different crazy train solo is mind blowing. The fact that bob has posted little bits now gives me a little hope that we might get to hear a lot more

cool link, nice to hear some Randy playing off the cuff
