My Take
Bob Daisley is exactly the sort of musician I find myself rooting for: the indispensable man most listeners never name. He laid down the bass and co-wrote much of Ozzy Osbourne's defining 1980s output, and his resume runs through Black Sabbath, Rainbow, Gary Moore and Uriah Heep. What impresses me is not just his playing but his songwriting and co-production work, the quiet architecture beneath famous records. Frontmen get the spotlight, but careers like Daisley's are the load-bearing structure of rock history. Decades of that low-end craft, mostly out of view, command real respect from me.
