From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Living Loud
was a supergroup which included bass player and songwriter
Bob Daisley
,
Uriah Heep
drummer
Lee Kerslake
, guitarist
Steve Morse
of
Deep Purple
and
Cold Chisel
singer
Jimmy Barnes
. Deep Purple keyboards player
Don Airey
made a guest appearance.
According to the liner notes of the self-titled album, the project was instigated by Daisley who had discussed with Kerslake the possibility of re-doing some of the songs from the classic rock albums that they had co-written. Six of those songs, "
I Don't Know
", "
Crazy Train
", "
Flying High Again
", "
Mr. Crowley
", "
Tonight
" and "
Over the Mountain
" originally appeared on the
Ozzy Osbourne
albums
Blizzard of Ozz
and
Diary of a Madman
. In 2002, Osbourne had re-issued both albums with Daisley and Kerslake's original performances replaced by new bass and drum tracks after both musicians had sued Osbourne for non-payment of royalties and related issues. Despite playing on
Diary of a Madman
, Daisley and Kerslake's performances were credited to
Rudy Sarzo
and
Tommy Aldridge
for many years.
In August 2003, Daisley, Kerslake, Barnes and Morse recorded the eponymous album in Florida. Along with the Osbourne songs, the group also wrote five new tracks. Airey (who had also worked on the first two Osbourne albums and whose contributions were also uncredited) recorded his parts in London.
Living Loud
was released in 2004. While Morse and Airey were touring Australia with Deep Purple that year, Living Loud played two live shows, one at the Metro in Melbourne, and one at Fox Studios in Sydney. The latter event was recorded and released on DVD in 2005.
