In a new interview with Guitar World, Bob Daisley discusses his time as Blizzard Of Ozz bassist and co-writer for Ozzy Osbourne.

Daisley shares stories about his dismissal and re-hiring by the band and reflects on working with Randy Rhoads, Jake E.

Lee, and Zakk Wylde.

A key excerpt from the feature reveals the tension between Daisley and Ozzy during the recording of Bark At The Moon in 1980.

Daisley recounts how he was dismissed by the band after Ozzy and Sharon asked him to agree to replacing Jake E.

Lee with Tommy Aldridge during a UK tour, but then re-hired six weeks later.

He notes that he would never agree to replace Lee because "the chemistry was perfect and the formula was working well." The interview also touches on the events surrounding Randy Rhoads' death in 1982.

When asked about his role with Ozzy during the time of Bark At The Moon, Daisley replies that his responsibilities remained the same - co-writing music, writing all lyrics, arranging songs, and inspiring.

He emphasizes that "it wasn't out of blind loyalty to Lee" but rather a strong understanding of the band's sound.

Daisley also recalls being asked to return to work with Ozzy and Randy Rhoads on another album in 1982 after being in Uriah Heep at the time, but notes that the project was put on hold after Rhoads' death.

The interview highlights Daisley's significant contributions to Ozzy Osbourne's music and provides insight into the band's inner workings during a pivotal period in their history."
