Everyone always makes fun of ozzy for his state after years of drugs. But you can almost see his mind clear and his undivided attention to the playing of his late dear friend
He’s doing pretty well considering both his age and lifestyle, the fact that he’s 71 (happy birthday) and relatively healthy physically, and for the most part knows what’s going on, is pretty insane
When you consider that Randy died in 1982, still reasonably early in the history of heavy metal, and some of those solo parts still sound amazing today, it's incredible.
Seeing how quickly the underground flourished though, I'd say this wasn't as early in the genre as you'd think. Heavy metal was doing all kinds of crazy things in 1982.
@@thehonkening1 This may be a miscommunication on your parts in regards to it being a joke. You're probably not familiar with this sense of humor. But essentially it's saying that his spirit is still playing it. Lol Like, yo, even now in death the man hasn't stopped..! 😂
Everyone is a RUclips comment section philosopher. He probably hits refresh on this comment every 5 minutes waiting for someone to go "woah" "that's deep" "mind blown" etc.
Holds up with today's players it smokes most of em. The 80s metal and rock guys are the best players ever in my opinion of course there is great guys today but nobody hears them because music is pretty much dead
@Babis Tse psh.... no such thing! But today's is just absolutely pathetic! I mean, so I'm told. Whelp, going to go back to the guitar now! If you need me I'll be snor......practicing.... over.. here
Man, i can feel Ozzy's heart going. He clearly still misses Randy, he looked like he would cry any second. He looked as if he was clearly seeing Randy playing in front of him, like a ghost.
There was an interview with Ozzy where he was asked if he could go back and change anything about his career what would it be - He said "I'd never have let Randy get on that fuckin' plane". Didn't hesitate or have to think a second about it.
@@solartoast I saw that one! I cried! Literally without hesitation he said that.. I have so much love for ozzy and randy. And I wish randy would be here to this day to help ozzy get through the tough times he’s going through.. I have so much love for the prince of darkness himself.. I’ve watched the most of his shows he’s been on and I saw his true self. He has feelings, he loves and he crys. Nobody sees that because they don’t watch him they watch what everyone posts on the media.
He replaced Randy in a heartbeat when he died, they were in the middle of touring, he found a replacement guitarist and resumed the tour in just two weeks. Literally everything about this man's persona, including his edgy "darkness and satanism" is fake and for more money. I bet this is not even the first time he heard the tapes...they just brought in the camera and acted like it is.
0:55 Ozzy recognizes part of the famous tune by Italian composer from the early 19. c. Rossini. Ouverture from William Tell. He askes "what's this?" , but I don't think the other guy recognizes.
There's a very famous bootleg recording of Quiet Riot playing "Laughing Gas" where Randy has an extended solo, and he plays it in that as well. I remember downloading it off napster back when I was a teenager and burning it onto a cd along with a bunch of other classic metal, then every night before bed I'd turn out all the lights and put my headphones on and close my eyes and just listen to that CD. I can still remember the track list - Laughing Gas was the 3rd song, after Tornado of Souls and Seasons in the Abyss.
What is so odd is that Randy had a terrible fear of flying and had a very hard time convincing him to go up on that ride. He finally relented and now the rest is history. At least they reported he died instantly so there was no suffering.
Ozzy looked like he was about to cry. But he always seems taken aback. You can see it on his face. He said he loved Randy Rhoads and felt a lot of guilt and remorse for what happened. His words not mine. This is simply an observation.
+Matt Elrod and your point is? I never said anything bad about Ozzy crying. It's a tough thing to deal with. I have also listened to lost audio of several friends that played music that I hadn't heard before and cried. I'm a musician and songwriter.
Matt Elrod It came off as such. "if you heard your dead friends lost solo you would feel emotional" That is something that should be left unsaid. In my comment that notion should have been obvious...that is, since I felt the need to express what he was feeling, through my own empathized observation.
Buckethead is a mind blowing guitarist but its one thing to copy and modify open source techniques, another to create a song that resonates with not just other guitarists but with the sheeple as well.
every guitar player has a handful of little "ditties" that they play when they're just screwing off, and you can hear some recognizable melodies in this that he must have warmed up or practiced with. so cool to hear famous musicians playing outside of an official performance or recording
Ozzy is saying "whats this?" cos he recognises the classical melody, people assume he is saying "whats this" meaning the whole track. You see the recognition in his eyes
Forever Grateful exactly. He was asking what that little riff was. The other dude was kind of condescending, but it’s funny watching Ozzy give up on the thought because he can tell the other dude isn’t following him. It’s like he’s saying, “fuck it. Think I’m stupid, I don’t give a fuck.” and then going inward to try to figure it out.
@@jackmacmusic Yeah, pretty sure he's asking "what's this?" in the british way of "why is this the way it is;" sort of asking himself and the engineer why the quote sort of sprang up out of nowhere, prompting the engineer's comments about how the take was done and he just kept going.
Seeing Ozzy's reaction to this is such a bittersweet feeling for me. I can't imagine how he must have felt. You can feel the amazement and pain just by looking at his face. He really loved Randy. Who can blame him for that? Randy will always be my favorite guitarist. I know it's so much more intense for Ozzy.
Think about this: Randy was one of Ozzy's best friends. They were pretty close. His death sent Ozzy spiraling deeper into depression and drug use. And now, after thirty years, Ozzy is hearing something from his old friend that he hasn't heard in years. Something new. Like a message left for him, thirty years in the past. Just... imagine how Ozzy feels for a second.
Black Death 1347 no though or emotion? did you not see his face during the whole video? he looked like he shit himself after hearing this, his face is like holy shit, this guy was amazing.
+Black Death 1347 Only a brain-dead fool would watch this and say Ozzy conveyed no thought. smh. Perhaps you have an issue with awareness or simply you need words to tell you what to think. The look in his eyes and the one simple. "wow" conveyed much more than many words could ever say. Damn common core is destroying people's damn minds....helping to create the very ones who tend to cut on others mental faculties.....the irony.
Young people of today won't have that. There is so much social media legacy people just leave behind when they go now that it just won't feel the same because they aren't completely gone. Just check their Facebook or whatever. I had a few friends that died in the late 80s and early 90s and there is virtually no record of anything about them. Sure, a birth and death certificate but not hours of recordings.
i love how randy threw in that classical melody there at 0:57 , just like he did in his QR days long live randy rhoads u can just tell a Randy Rhoads solo and his playing, he had such a unique sound, and his style was great.,... I damned sure wish we could of seen that Rickenbacker bass near the end by ozz...
@@BorkKillsOneLegMan At least the Randy Rhoads part is true. The 70's were a different time. I can't say I blame her. Who knows how many chicks Ozzy nailed.
This clearly ripped open a very old scar on Ozzy’s heart and yet it sounds to us and probably to Ozzy that he is just in the other room fooling around on guitar. It’s beautiful, like a time machine. You are with Randy with the lights off in the room. Amazing!
34 years ago today, we lost Randy. I live only minutes away from his final resting place. It's touching to see other's paying their respects too. On this day in 96' my first daughter was born. She also comes to Highland, and honors his memory. God Bless You Randy, your father rip, and your dear Mother. ~
you do know ozzy has nothing to do with the music at all right? or the lyrics? he basically pays people to write songs for him, pays people to record them for him, then hops into the studio 1 day hammered off his ass, slams em all out and lets the techs apply autotuning as needed.
@@FingerinUrDaughter pretty much everything he's done in the studio since No More Tears has been WAY overproduced. His new stuff sounds like an AI algorithm wrote it lol. Even in the early days Sharon had more to do with the songwriting process than Ozzy. But I also know for a fact that Ozzy can still sing his ass off live. He is a legend and the frontman of the band that literally invented heavy metal
@@elbeetlebeasto correction : you know for a fact that they have been using the same autotuning settings for 40 years. jonathan ossborne can barely speak, and you honestly think thats his ACTUAL singing voice youre hearing? its pure autotune, when they arent outright playing his vocal dub over the concert and he lip syncs to it.
Today is Dec 23 2023 and I just saw the latest pics of Ozzy leaving the hospital. Damn. It actually choked me up. I am normally not a morbid type to dwell on negativity, but he's in real rough shape right now. God bless that man for providing so much to not only myself, but countless millions. Many of his songs got me thru some bad days.
i think ozzys love for randy was and still is stronger than that of most true blood brothers, i also think the little chinese kid , whos probaly not so little now, lifted ozzys spirit so much, how cool was that this little asian kid, playin like Randy on ozzy's shoulder. love that man , i think the ozz man has a huge heart, and yea he may have done some wild and crazy things in his life but , i feel like ozzy is far more spiritually connectected to our maker than most of the people who put him down.just sharin a thought.love ya ozzy
The ONLY good thing about living in San Antonio is that in 1982 ozzy pissed on The Alamo and I got to see Randy Rhoads... Beautiful set and a spotlight on Randy is what I remember the most... I was CRUSHED when I heard he died because he was just so amazing... Very sad day...
I had to think of the old story that Steven Tyler was so wasted on drugs in the 70s and early 80s that he can't remember making certain Aerosmith records and allegedly once suggested in the mid-80s that the band should cover a song he had heard on the radio and really liked only to be told "It's us fuckhead!" At least he seems to like his own style.
XD 4 seconds of playing this "joke" were enough and Ozzy was pissed off. Of course Randy was a pro guitar master and turned Ozzy's mood. This was what i thought, till the end of this clip. The one to his right wanted to declare. :) At the end he proudly said: "...and you listen that, that nobody has heard in 30 years.??. To Ozzy it was enogh again and straight he answered " I've never heard that" and the clip is over :D :D To me the answer was correct, because Ozzy didn't agree with this "Joke" and with the one to his right, maybe... and related to the "30 years" Ozzy's answer was true again (this solo was lost till this clip was made, so how could Ozzy ever hear it? And by the way Randy was the first, that has heard it. So it's difficult to say " that nobody has heard for 30 years" :D But it doesn't really matter, because after that Ozzy surely became happier again. Reasons could be : 1. no talk about something, that Ozzy should know better 2. Time to improve his drug level 3. Time to improve his drug level and last but not least Number 4 : Time to improve his drug level. Hahaha, nice clip!
Almost 10 years later I come back and still see the jokes. Yeah, as he got older he might have gone off the rails, but watch the comments change after his eventual passing. All I see is a man who misses his friend, and hearing something new is like hearing his voice again. That's what music is, and it proves it stays no matter how far you've gone...or maybe this is why he's further gone that it sticks with you all these years.
yeah, sad to see isn't it. drug abuse turned ozzy into essentially a mentally challenged person, and people mock him for it. laughing at the disabled isn't cool however they got that way, and someone shouldn't have to die to make someone realise that
Amazing guitarist. He was very young and had those nimble fingers that could play anything. So sad that he didn't get to show us his best...because his best was yet to come.
darn tootin, he woulda went further than evh and unlike evh, he would have kept up with all the big time shredders like yngwie and Vai and take it even further!
+Tama John I liked RR as a teen, but be serious. If you haven't done so, check out Steve Morse, Shawn Lane, John Petrucci, or Al DiMeola to get started.
It’s amazing how unmistakeable Randy’s tone is! I’m still amazed to this day that no one has been able to copy, mimic, and or recreate his sound. Wonder if he’d still sound like this today if he was alive. It’s really such a shame!Randy should still be around today. All because of someone else’s fault deciding to piloting a plane high under the influence. Randy and Rachael Youngblood should of used better judgment an told the guy no and had backed out of that one. It’s too bad will never get to here that tone on a new album or live again.
To be fair Ozzy was so fuckin' wackadoo on drugs in the 80's that you could probably play a video of him reciting his wedding vows to Sharon back to him and he'd probably have the same reaction
The Heavy Metal industry will always miss two very big musical pioneers that changed the history of this music throughout the years. R.I.P Randy Rhoads and Dimebag Darrell. You may have left the world of the living. But, your souls moved on in other people.
Ozzy was truly shocked and amazed! Say what you will about Ozzy and Sharon's dealings after Randy's death, but I truly believe Ozzy loved Randy very much.
RR was such a brilliant, brilliant guitarist. I had the pleasure of meeting him and Bob Daisley and Lee Kerslake before their 1st show at Hammersmith odeon in 1980. Randy chatted with us for around half an hour and was a genuinely really nice guy. Such a tragic end to not accomplish and show more people his incredible talent and great sense of humour. RIP, you will never be forgotten.
Randy Rhoads was a monster on guitar!!!! 😊☺🙂 Hearing his unaccompanied soloing or his guitar playing in general always and to this day still puts a smile on my face!!! Imagine when Ozzy first heard Randy play at his audition for the Ozzy gig!!! I would be blown away!!! Too!!!😊 Randy Rhoads and Eddie Van Halen were like emerging super stars in the late 70s and early 80s!!!! It was like golden age of guitar super heroes or something!!!😊🙂☺😄😃
Eddie Van Halen was nowhere near Randy rhoads level, Randy was a true musician and a learning one at that Eddie Van Halen was nothing but a an opportunist and a musical thief, ask Tony iommi
I think Randy was better. He didn't follow the modes, he made them up as he played. Malmsteen always follow the modes, which works but its kind of boring and certainly less genius.
This man truly misses Randy still to this day...Randy was way ahead of his time and Ozzy knew it or Sharon...but its sad seeing Ozzy down when he listens to Randy he's usually very talkative from what you can make out...lol...Long Live Ozzy
+Rhythmista He was pretty good but I beg to differ, the guy stood next to me (Guthrie Govan) wearing the Pacman tee shirt in my profile pic is pretty f*****g awesome !
I hate Zack's solos. It sounded like a colony of bees got loose on the guitar. So glad he went solo. Even though I haven't seen Ozzy much since he left.
Calbenmike -That goes without saying..Let me rephrase my comment..I meant the best compared to Randy's peers, and Ozzy's other guitar players. I'm a drummer and even i know that Hendrix was the pioneer of hard rock guitar. Without Hendrix, there would be no Page, Beck, Iommi, Blackmore, Van Halen, Vai, Rhodes, Wylde, etc..
I met Randy and the band (minus Ozzy) in Feb. 1982 at the Sam Houston Colosseum at their 5pm soundcheck before their show. Myself and two friends got to go in Randy's backstage dressing room and ogle at his guitars.... then they let us watch them run through Mr. Crowley in it's entirety during soundcheck. Just three of us and road crew members only... I was 22. His autograph still hangs on my wall.... A month later, he was gone...
you know, i'm not one to make a crack about dislikes on a video. But how could you not like this? This is a testament to true friendship. Randy and Ozzy were practically fucking brothers. He probably heard this some 25-30 years after Randy died, and in less than a minute he probably was thinking about all the time they spent together, all the fun they had, and how losing him changed his life. And as much as I really hate to say this... 94 People really just don't get what it means to have a friend. My advice: get out more instead of down-voting shit.
a, nope! Randy didnt even want to be on the same bus as the drunkin fool Ozzy was there to party RR was there to play his ass off every nite write and get better if that was possible,they werent even speaking.Ozzy found out RR was moving on after a few albums!
justin kasey Ozzy himself did say that Randy Rhoads wanted to move on because he had classical guitar goals in mind. Randy got tired of getting up on stage and playing the same rock songs over and over again. He felt restrained. So Randy would work on his goals when he had the time, while Ozzy and the rest of the gang would go out and party at a bar. However, that says nothing about what their relationship status was like. Randy really did like and have a lot of respect for Ozzy. Randy was also appreciative of the opportunities that Ozzy gave him. When Randy had made the decision to quit the band, it was not for any personal reasons. He wanted to quit so he can pursue other opportunities that laid before him.
It would have been amazing to have seen what Randy would have produced after his work with Ozzy. One of the most spectacular soloists to ever pick the strings! I have practiced his 'Crazy Train' solo thousands of times and still need to practice to achieve the speed and clarity that shines on this brilliant track. I know there are far more guitarists now a days who are just as good, if not better guitarists, but this was back in the late 70's, early 80's. And the fact remains that he was ready to move on to conquer new styles and techniques with his guitar playing. Let's not forget he passed at the young age of 26... Holy Shit! R.I.P Randy Rhoads, You will always be missed, remembered and never forgotten. Thanks for the music. Cheers!
@@SendEstringsForXmas but Ozzy had recently punched him in the face in a drunken rage when Randy told him he was gonna leave to pursue classical guitar at UCLA
It's crazy how he looks healthier today than he did back in the 80s even though he's 146 years old now.
That’s just what happens if you stop taking drugs
To be fair this is nearly 10 years old

that also boggles my mind because the solo was way too advanced for the music scene back then. randy is some sort of time traveler
Ahead of his time no doubt. I was born in 82. And the RHODES MODES are essential
100% true!
Seeing how quickly the underground flourished though, I'd say this wasn't as early in the genre as you'd think. Heavy metal was doing all kinds of crazy things in 1982.

I mean it's not the first time randy played that. Go back to his Quiet Riot days and he played it quite a bit.
@@jackmacmusic Yeah, pretty sure he's asking "what's this?" in the british way of "why is this the way it is;" sort of asking himself and the engineer why the quote sort of sprang up out of nowhere, prompting the engineer's comments about how the take was done and he just kept going.
Seeing Ozzy's reaction to this is such a bittersweet feeling for me. I can't imagine how he must have felt. You can feel the amazement and pain just by looking at his face. He really loved Randy. Who can blame him for that? Randy will always be my favorite guitarist. I know it's so much more intense for Ozzy.
Think about this: Randy was one of Ozzy's best friends. They were pretty close. His death sent Ozzy spiraling deeper into depression and drug use.
And now, after thirty years, Ozzy is hearing something from his old friend that he hasn't heard in years. Something new. Like a message left for him, thirty years in the past.
Just... imagine how Ozzy feels for a second.
Well put CJ, very well expressed. :)
\m/\m/
I guess we'll just have to imagine, since Ozzy seemed clinically unable to convey a single thought or emotion. For all he knows, he's at a 7-11.
Black Death 1347 You can see it in his eyes, though. And hear it when he says "Wow."
Black Death 1347 no though or emotion? did you not see his face during the whole video? he looked like he shit himself after hearing this, his face is like holy shit, this guy was amazing.
+Black Death 1347 Only a brain-dead fool would watch this and say Ozzy conveyed no thought. smh. Perhaps you have an issue with awareness or simply you need words to tell you what to think. The look in his eyes and the one simple. "wow" conveyed much more than many words could ever say. Damn common core is destroying people's damn minds....helping to create the very ones who tend to cut on others mental faculties.....the irony.
Imagine hearing one of your best friends so many years after he died. Lots of emotions
Young people of today won't have that. There is so much social media legacy people just leave behind when they go now that it just won't feel the same because they aren't completely gone. Just check their Facebook or whatever. I had a few friends that died in the late 80s and early 90s and there is virtually no record of anything about them. Sure, a birth and death certificate but not hours of recordings.
@@matthewlawton9241 Right, wheres your myspace top friends lol
Due to drugs, he probably doesn't remember who his friends were that long ago.

At least the Randy Rhoads part is true. The 70's were a different time. I can't say I blame her. Who knows how many chicks Ozzy nailed.
This clearly ripped open a very old scar on Ozzy’s heart and yet it sounds to us and probably to Ozzy that he is just in the other room fooling around on guitar. It’s beautiful, like a time machine. You are with Randy with the lights off in the room. Amazing!
There will never be another like Randy Rhoads!!
Eh. There's been plenty of em
Ozzy: ''I've never heard that"

U can see it his eyes that he's having a flashback of a moments in time with Randy playing then he snaps out of it in the end..amazing to watch
I needed a cigarette and a beer after hearing that solo

Yea, I could go for some of that too.
just going for jack daniels and a cigarette also! :D
James Houck same but instead of a cigarette, a joint would be better ;)
You can clearly see the intensity in ozzys eyes when he's listening to this, you can see the memories flowing through his head. Amazing
34 years ago today, we lost Randy. I live only minutes away from his final resting place. It's touching to see other's paying their respects too. On this day in 96' my first daughter was born. She also comes to Highland, and honors his memory. God Bless You Randy, your father rip, and your dear Mother. ~
Ozzy is a true musical genius. So he was probably FEELING Randy through that solo. You could tell he almost cried about halfway through.
you do know ozzy has nothing to do with the music at all right? or the lyrics? he basically pays people to write songs for him, pays people to record them for him, then hops into the studio 1 day hammered off his ass, slams em all out and lets the techs apply autotuning as needed.
@@FingerinUrDaughter pretty much everything he's done in the studio since No More Tears has been WAY overproduced. His new stuff sounds like an AI algorithm wrote it lol. Even in the early days Sharon had more to do with the songwriting process than Ozzy. But I also know for a fact that Ozzy can still sing his ass off live. He is a legend and the frontman of the band that literally invented heavy metal
@@elbeetlebeasto correction : you know for a fact that they have been using the same autotuning settings for 40 years. jonathan ossborne can barely speak, and you honestly think thats his ACTUAL singing voice youre hearing? its pure autotune, when they arent outright playing his vocal dub over the concert and he lip syncs to it.
Agreed! He is a musical genius, no doubt. And these comments above are Fn pathetic and clueless..
After all these years Ozzy never stops being blown away by Randy, I love it!
Today is Dec 23 2023 and I just saw the latest pics of Ozzy leaving the hospital. Damn. It actually choked me up. I am normally not a morbid type to dwell on negativity, but he's in real rough shape right now. God bless that man for providing so much to not only myself, but countless millions. Many of his songs got me thru some bad days.

That’s hysterical 👍🏻😂
Okay I chuckled.

haha fuck, you got me. cheers for making me laugh my dude.
Lol.
i think ozzys love for randy was and still is stronger than that of most true blood brothers, i also think the little chinese kid , whos probaly not so little now, lifted ozzys spirit so much, how cool was that this little asian kid, playin like Randy on ozzy's shoulder. love that man , i think the ozz man has a huge heart, and yea he may have done some wild and crazy things in his life but , i feel like ozzy is far more spiritually connectected to our maker than most of the people who put him down.just sharin a thought.love ya ozzy
***** Is that really you? I've been waiting so long!
i know me to! haha lol! thanks kevin lol
i was thinking that was an odd thing for christ him self to say !
I think it was Japanese kid. NOT all Asians are Chinese.
could have been i just remember ozzy with a little asian lookin kid on his shoulders playing like a pro ,
He loved that man of course he reacted like that. Rip legend

The ONLY good thing about living in San Antonio is that in 1982 ozzy pissed on The Alamo and I got to see Randy Rhoads... Beautiful set and a spotlight on Randy is what I remember the most... I was CRUSHED when I heard he died because he was just so amazing... Very sad day...
He doesnt.
you obviously dont play
@@adalstan 13 years if your talking to me. Guthrie govan 👍
@ADK_MSE playing for 25 years my boy. Should I follow Rolling Stone magazine, they said Lennon was a better guitarist than Randy?
Ozzy say's, "I've never heard that" Which means he heard it 20 minutes ago, he just cant remember
Erock 😂😂true
But deep down Ozzy remembers and just wants to hear it again and again and again...
Lol I thought the exact same thing
I had to think of the old story that Steven Tyler was so wasted on drugs in the 70s and early 80s that he can't remember making certain Aerosmith records and allegedly once suggested in the mid-80s that the band should cover a song he had heard on the radio and really liked only to be told "It's us fuckhead!"
At least he seems to like his own style.
"Wha? What's that tune?"
"That's 'Pop Goes The Weasel', Ozzy."
"Fuckin' amazing. Did we ever record that?"
appreciation and respect. that's what ozzie has
I guess you don't know about how he screwed over Bob Daisley then?
He was playing the William Tell Overture aka The Lone Ranger theme near the end.

0:54 Ozzy thought he heard an ice-cream truck
LMAO 😂😂
🤣🤣😂😂 It's funnier when you click on the time frame and it zooms to it 🤣
Hahahaha
Lmfao
Lmao 😂😂😂😂
You can tell ozzy is really amazed. It always hits a nerve when he talks about randy.
The look on his face says it all..
hes just in utter bewilderment because of plastic
Ozzy reacts to the William Tell Overture at 0:54 . A little joke left by Randy.
Perik Holt Yeah that’s the best part and thanks for this comment because like Ozzy, I recognized it but would never be able to name it.
XD 4 seconds of playing this "joke" were enough and Ozzy was pissed off. Of course Randy was a pro guitar master and turned Ozzy's mood. This was what i thought, till the end of this clip. The one to his right wanted to declare. :) At the end he proudly said: "...and you listen that, that nobody has heard in 30 years.??. To Ozzy it was enogh again and straight he answered " I've never heard that" and the clip is over :D :D To me the answer was correct, because Ozzy didn't agree with this "Joke" and with the one to his right, maybe... and related to the "30 years" Ozzy's answer was true again (this solo was lost till this clip was made, so how could Ozzy ever hear it? And by the way Randy was the first, that has heard it. So it's difficult to say " that nobody has heard for 30 years" :D But it doesn't really matter, because after that Ozzy surely became happier again. Reasons could be : 1. no talk about something, that Ozzy should know better 2. Time to improve his drug level 3. Time to improve his drug level and last but not least Number 4 : Time to improve his drug level.
Hahaha, nice clip!
Thorsten, what the fuck are you talking about?? He listened to it, liked it and was impressed.
@@thorstenhabeeinengooglewil1030 Are you saying that this isn't really Randy and they were just trolling him?
Almost 10 years later I come back and still see the jokes. Yeah, as he got older he might have gone off the rails, but watch the comments change after his eventual passing. All I see is a man who misses his friend, and hearing something new is like hearing his voice again. That's what music is, and it proves it stays no matter how far you've gone...or maybe this is why he's further gone that it sticks with you all these years.
yeah, sad to see isn't it. drug abuse turned ozzy into essentially a mentally challenged person, and people mock him for it. laughing at the disabled isn't cool however they got that way, and someone shouldn't have to die to make someone realise that
Sim....😢
Rest in peace Randy Rhoads. In my opinion the worlds greatest guitarist.
Ozzy is thinking "what kind of drug is he on, and where can I buy it".
+loganbaileysfunwithtrains No, whatever drugs Randy was on, he was getting it from Ozzy ;)
+amjan randy didnt do drugs
Randy was the drug
+MrCoolbat no randy did loads of cocain you can tell by looking at him
+Billy stringer Randy was not a coke user. shuuuuudup.
Randy's guitar was like a weapon in his hands!!
Amazing guitarist. He was very young and had those nimble fingers that could play anything. So sad that he didn't get to show us his best...because his best was yet to come.
Rest in peace Randy. Such a great musician AND
person.
I think this is as close as we've ever come to seeing the expression on Ozzy's face when he first heard Rhoads play.
I have always admired how much Ozzy loves Randy and honors his memory every chance he gets.
Thank you Ozzy for bringing this young man to the light. I see the other influences Dime had expressed
can't.... stop... cryin.... not playing, this is just...... thank you Ozz Fest sooo much
You can tell this brought back a lot of memories. It took him right back to that time.
Randy is. The. Best. Period.
+Tama John So totally.
+Tama John He was one of the best. Great guitar player because he was a precursor.
GUITAR PIONEER...
darn tootin, he woulda went further than evh and unlike evh, he would have kept up with all the big time shredders like yngwie and Vai and take it even further!
+Tama John I liked RR as a teen, but be serious.
If you haven't done so, check out Steve Morse, Shawn Lane, John Petrucci, or Al DiMeola to get started.
Hello, it's 2022 and nobody could improve his style. God bless Randy and Ozzy ♥
It’s amazing how unmistakeable Randy’s tone is! I’m still amazed to this day that no one has been able to copy, mimic, and or recreate his sound. Wonder if he’d still sound like this today if he was alive. It’s really such a shame!Randy should still be around today. All because of someone else’s fault deciding to piloting a plane high under the influence. Randy and Rachael Youngblood should of used better judgment an told the guy no and had backed out of that one. It’s too bad will never get to here that tone on a new album or live again.
"Ive never heard that"
Was actually chillin next to him
To be fair Ozzy was so fuckin' wackadoo on drugs in the 80's that you could probably play a video of him reciting his wedding vows to Sharon back to him and he'd probably have the same reaction
Steven Tyler himself says he doesn't remember much of the 70s, so Ozzy might have a similar issue
I love this, everytime they bring up RR, it's a pure love he had for his friend and bandmate. It's like you can actually feel what Ozzy's thinking. 💜👍
The opening two riffs were just incredible... LL RR
Ozzy was thinking - "I tought he was the drummer"
Ozzy was fighting back tears throughout the whole thing. He was seeing randy and all he could do was listen to him.
WOW! That guy was awesome!
well, Ozzy is awesome too!
They made such a great team!
Most awesome guitarist in the world! Saw him play many times and Ozzy carry him on his shoulders! Picture of this still on my fridge today!
The Heavy Metal industry will always miss two very big musical pioneers that changed the history of this music throughout the years. R.I.P Randy Rhoads and Dimebag Darrell. You may have left the world of the living. But, your souls moved on in other people.
He looks like he’s being sent back like he’s actually watching him do it.
0:36-0:39 You can hear a 'oooh' and a 'aaah'. Was that on the tape?
I heard that too. Very strange.
satchfan2010 Randy was just getting intimate with his guitar.
john maddox damn. that WAS strange
to me it sounds like someone stringing 2 chords across a violin
satchfan2010 god that is so strange I keep playing it bak listening to it
Randy Rhoades is still my favorite. Great reaction from OZZY.
Ozzy was truly shocked and amazed! Say what you will about Ozzy and Sharon's dealings after Randy's death, but I truly believe Ozzy loved Randy very much.
0:50 you’d think judging by Ozzy’s face that Randy just walked into the room
0:51 Ozzies expression. Priceless.
RR was such a brilliant, brilliant guitarist. I had the pleasure of meeting him and Bob Daisley and Lee Kerslake before their 1st show at Hammersmith odeon in 1980. Randy chatted with us for around half an hour and was a genuinely really nice guy. Such a tragic end to not accomplish and show more people his incredible talent and great sense of humour. RIP, you will never be forgotten.
Man... what a 'little something' to have never heard until 30 years later. Glad it made it.
Randy Rhoads was a monster on guitar!!!! 😊☺🙂 Hearing his unaccompanied soloing or his guitar playing in general always and to this day still puts a smile on my face!!! Imagine when Ozzy first heard Randy play at his audition for the Ozzy gig!!! I would be blown away!!! Too!!!😊 Randy Rhoads and Eddie Van Halen were like emerging super stars in the late 70s and early 80s!!!! It was like golden age of guitar super heroes or something!!!😊🙂☺😄😃
Eddie Van Halen was nowhere near Randy rhoads level, Randy was a true musician and a learning one at that Eddie Van Halen was nothing but a an opportunist and a musical thief, ask Tony iommi
Randy was such a beast. He had the potential to be on par with Satch, Vai, Malmsteen, Petrucci etc. Shame his life got cut so short
perhaps he has exceeded the musicians you reference
Randy was better
Randi met that potential; many a times I wished he’d never gotten on that plane. We lost a true genius with him...
I think Randy was better. He didn't follow the modes, he made them up as he played. Malmsteen always follow the modes, which works but its kind of boring and certainly less genius.
Indeed! You are right
This is just spine chilling just hearing this
It would be cool to see the music coming out of the speakers like he can.
This man truly misses Randy still to this day...Randy was way ahead of his time and Ozzy knew it or Sharon...but its sad seeing Ozzy down when he listens to Randy he's usually very talkative from what you can make out...lol...Long Live Ozzy
“What’s this?” Missing answer is: *notes from Rossini’s William Tell opera*

He was pretty good but I beg to differ, the guy stood next to me (Guthrie Govan) wearing the Pacman tee shirt in my profile pic is pretty f*****g awesome !
+Rhythmista true
I hate Zack's solos. It sounded like a colony of bees got loose on the guitar. So glad he went solo. Even though I haven't seen Ozzy much since he left.
Hendrix is the greatest guitarist to ever live.
Calbenmike -That goes without saying..Let me rephrase my comment..I meant the best compared to Randy's peers, and Ozzy's other guitar players. I'm a drummer and even i know that Hendrix was the pioneer of hard rock guitar. Without Hendrix, there would be no Page, Beck, Iommi, Blackmore, Van Halen, Vai, Rhodes, Wylde, etc..
I met Randy and the band (minus Ozzy) in Feb. 1982 at the Sam Houston Colosseum at their 5pm soundcheck before their show. Myself and two friends got to go in Randy's backstage dressing room and ogle at his guitars.... then they let us watch them run through Mr. Crowley in it's entirety during soundcheck. Just three of us and road crew members only... I was 22. His autograph still hangs on my wall.... A month later, he was gone...
Its crazy how randy was so inspired by classical music, using classic pentatonics waaww
Engineer:-pushes play-
Ozzy: “Sharon answer that phone!”
Engineer: “what?”
Ozzy: “huh?”
you know, i'm not one to make a crack about dislikes on a video.
But how could you not like this? This is a testament to true friendship. Randy and Ozzy were practically fucking brothers. He probably heard this some 25-30 years after Randy died, and in less than a minute he probably was thinking about all the time they spent together, all the fun they had, and how losing him changed his life.
And as much as I really hate to say this...
94 People really just don't get what it means to have a friend.
My advice: get out more instead of down-voting shit.
a, nope! Randy didnt even want to be on the same bus as the drunkin fool Ozzy was there to party RR was there to play his ass off every nite write and get better if that was possible,they werent even speaking.Ozzy found out RR was moving on after a few albums!
justin kasey Ozzy himself did say that Randy Rhoads wanted to move on because he had classical guitar goals in mind. Randy got tired of getting up on stage and playing the same rock songs over and over again. He felt restrained. So Randy would work on his goals when he had the time, while Ozzy and the rest of the gang would go out and party at a bar. However, that says nothing about what their relationship status was like. Randy really did like and have a lot of respect for Ozzy. Randy was also appreciative of the opportunities that Ozzy gave him. When Randy had made the decision to quit the band, it was not for any personal reasons. He wanted to quit so he can pursue other opportunities that laid before him.
It would have been amazing to have seen what Randy would have produced after his work with Ozzy. One of the most spectacular soloists to ever pick the strings! I have practiced his 'Crazy Train' solo thousands of times and still need to practice to achieve the speed and clarity that shines on this brilliant track. I know there are far more guitarists now a days who are just as good, if not better guitarists, but this was back in the late 70's, early 80's. And the fact remains that he was ready to move on to conquer new styles and techniques with his guitar playing. Let's not forget he passed at the young age of 26... Holy Shit! R.I.P Randy Rhoads, You will always be missed, remembered and never forgotten. Thanks for the music. Cheers!
