Another blow for Ozzy. Apart from receiving treatment for sex addiction and the problems in his marriage with Sharon Osbourne after it was revealed he had been having an affair with his hairdresser, former Ozzy Osbourne bassist Bob Daisley has sued the musician and his Blizzard Music Limited for fraud, accusing the heavy metallers of withholding more than $2 million in unpaid royalties. Daisley has sued Osbourne several times for his work with the musician throughout the Eighties. The dispute centers around the royalties for the song "Crazy Train", which was originally released in 1980. Daisley has a songwriting credit on the track, along with the late guitarist Randy Rhoads. Daisley is seeking monetary damages, as well as punitive damages, while the complaint is also seeking a full accounting of Osbourne and Blizzard's books.
