"For Facts Sake" Bob Daisley book now available on Amazon

What does he not understand about the term "ghost writing"? He was paid to contribute and shoulda kept it a secret.

I also thought it was pretty crummy of him to demand big money for personal home movies(that featured the deceased). Sure, somebody(a documentary filmmaker) asked for the Randy rehearsals, but he said in so many words he was holding out for big money for them all along because "that stuff's gold". Says a lot imo. He wanted to stab somebody in the back and make money off of inside information this whole time, is how I read it. He should have given those movies to Delores Rhoads long ago, and again...kept quiet about it. Now he's going around saying he has "the grail" of all home movies, just waiting for that big payday...all off a dead guy.

I was influenced by him too, until I read all of his hoopla online.
 
Ordered and on the way. Any thorn in the side of Sharon and the corpse formerly known as Ozzy is one I'm on the side of. If I stopped being influenced by musicians because they were crummy human beings I wouldn't have many influences left. He has a story to tell and I'm going to read it.

Furthermore, he's worked for some of the most notorious SOB's in the business in Gary Moore and Blackmore and he loved Moore and never publicly slammed Blackmore from what I remember. He was paid to do a job, was credited for said jobs, and went on his merry way. Me thinks the Osbournes play dirty pool and it's time they got some back. .

Sharon is a totally unethical person. She gets it from her dad, Don Arden, who was totally corrupt as well.

If it weren't for Bob Daisley, Ozzy wouldn't even have a solo career. He wrote the songs on the first three albums with Rhoads and then Jake E. Lee. Ozzy didn't write a damn thing.
 
Has anybody, other than Zakk Wylde, had anything nice to say about them after leaving or having been fired? And correct me if I'm wrong here as I may very we'll be. Daisley IS NOT and HAS NOT bitched about payment or credit for the songs or work he did for Ozzy post Bark At The Moon. I don't think he was a "ghost writer" per se. Strictly contracted and gave up publishing rights from the get go, no?

He has not bitched about the pay he received for BATM or NRFTW. He has complained about royalities for BOO and DOAMM that were stolen over the years by the Osbournes, who also removed both Bob and Lee Kerslake's credits from the original printing of DOAMM because . . . they are unethical narcissists.

^^^TRUTH^^^ and let it be known to all. Sharon is one of the most notorious crooks in the biz but there are way worse out there now and before her. I think she is just more well known. She should be ashamed of herself and so should Oz.
