Bob Daisley Denies Reasons Sharon Osbourne Didn't Release First Practice Demo Randy Rhoads

JAKARTA - Bob Daisley, bassist on Ozzy Osbourne's first solo album, responded to Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne's claim that Bob's training record quality from the original band "Blizzard Of Ozz" with the late guitarist for Ozzy's solo band Randy Rhoads was too "terrible" to be released to the public.

In the latest episode of "The Osbournes Podcast", Ozzy and his family discussed the legendary Daisley demo, Holy Grail, which reportedly contains about eight hours of recording sessions with Rhoads.

When Ozzy and Sharon's son, Jack, suggested that Randy's family decide whether the recording would be released, Sharon said: "Right."

However, Ozzy offers a more practical reason why the footage has not been published. His quality is bad, he said. "His quality is so bad."

Sharon agreed, saying: "[It was recorded] on a small cassette machine - on a small cassette machine. And yes, we have no right to do anything with it."

Daisley (now 73 years old), who has sued the Osbourne family several times for unpaid royalties, responded to Sharon and Ozzy's latest comments in a new interview with Artists On Record Starring ADIKA Live! Regarding Ozzy's claim that the unreleased recording quality was "terrible".

"Well, I don't know if Ozzy really listened to the demo. There are footages of what I have on my website... And the quality wasn't bad at all. And it wasn't a small cassette player. It was done in my boombox that I used to record all our exercises," Bob opened.

"I used to record the exercise really just for us to make it a reference for what we did when we wrote the song because of the famous last words, 'Oh, we'll remember it tomorrow,' and I never want to take that opportunity."

"So, I used to record everything. That's the only reason I recorded everything, is so I have a reference the next day and we won't forget anything. But actually the quality is pretty good, because [it has] been recorded on the cassette player - the big cassette player, one of the boomboxes, was once called a blaster."

"People don't call it that anymore. But if anyone wants to hear for themselves the quality, they can judge. It's on my website. I put the footage there. I put the footage to commemorate Randy's death. I put the footage there when [former drummer Ozzy] Lee [Kerslake] died. In my opinion, there are three or four clips that last about 30 or 40 seconds. You can legally play something for 40 seconds without having to get permission," he concluded.
