Default Bob Daisley Interview

Interview time again for Gibsonbass.com

This time Graham (Rumblekat) Fieldhouse has been looking at Bob Daisleys bass collection, and got the low down on 40 years of performing. A great read - check it out! Thanks Graham

Bob Daisley has played bass with many of the hard rocks greats; performing on numerous albums by the likes of Mungo Jerry, Rainbow, Ozzy Osbourne and Gary Moore to name a few. His fall-out and subsequent court case with the Osbournes has been well documented but his fantastic collection of vintage guitars has not. We spoke to Bob about the instruments he owns, which of course includes some interesting Gibson basses!

Itīs impressive.
The interview is very interesting, with all these experiences with many musicians and bands, and the collection of basses is fantastic. Excellent.
Thank you very much

Great interview, Graham, as usual!

Uwe

PS: No mention of Widowmaker and his Mother Earth project (which at one point featured Jeff Watson from Night Ranger, Carmine Appice and Joe Lynn Turner with Daisley's bass playing very much up-front and him writing a lot too) though? Didn't he want to talk about them? I actually saw Daisley for the first time with Widowmaker (=ill-fated, not-quite-super-supergroup featuring ex-Mott the Hoople/Spooky Tooth, ex-Love Affair and ex-Hawkwind guys) in 1976/77 as an opening act to Ted Nugent. Since then I've of course seen him with Rainbow, Gary Moore and Ozzy.

Thanks Guys :D

There is plenty more I would have liked to talk to Bob about Uwe but as always there's only so much time.
