240 – Bob Daisley (Rainbow, Ozzy Osbourne, Gary Moore…

September 7, 2020November 23, 2020
by andy

While Bob’s career in music is not spoken about nearly enough in the public domain, his book ‘For Facts Sake’ (Amazon/Utopia Records) is an eye opening autobiography that gives Bob the opportunity to set the record straight. Bob kept journals since 1976 which helped fill in many of the gaps left by others and also dumped hundreds of candid photographs from his personal collection, which will leave you in a constant state of awe. In my opinion, this is one of the best rock/metal autobiographies out there that I’ve read.

If you’re a music fan and you’re here for stories, this is the podcast episode for you. We only scrape the surface!
