BASS CULTURE...Bob Daisley

 


     A native of Sydney, Australia, Bob Daisley began his musical journey as a guitarist-turned-bassist at the age of fourteen. Inspired by soul music and the British Invasion, his first studio project was Wide Open with the Australian based band Kahvas Jute. Quickly realizing that better musical opportunities lie elsewhere, he moved to London in 1970. Within a few years, he found himself touring and recording with bands such as Chicken Shack, Mungo Jerry, and Widowmaker. By the late 1970’s, he joined Rainbow alongside Ronnie James Dio and Ritchie Blackmore for several tours and the record Long Live Rock’n’Roll. In 1979, Daisley had a chance meeting with Ozzy Osbourne at a bar in London and shortly thereafter, began recording Osbourne’s debut solo record Blizzard of Ozz.
     In addition to working with Ozzy Osbourne as a solo artist, he recorded with Black Sabbath and Uriah Heep. He had an “on again off again” touring relationship with these artists despite playing on many of the records. Daisley also established what would become a long-time association with Gary Moore, playing on several records and tours between the 1980s and mid 2000s.
