Jake E. Lee is one of the most underrated guitarist ever. Such talent.
Ahhhh, no…..
Fortunately you are not right. Jake is recognized as an extraordinary talent, every musician I talk to raves about Jake's songwriting and guitar craft. Jake E. Lee is a highly respected person. Sharon and Ozzy .... are not.
Define "underrated" please.
@@lilmike2710 he does not get the reocgnition he deserves among the best.... he is underappreciated. He is not often brought up in conversations with Ed and Randy.
And he was ripped off of songwriting credits
@@michaelredondo5491 no, he is underappreciated, Jake is not often put in a sentence with Randy and Ed and others from that ERA.
Jake is more respected than the Osbournes for sure
I don't miss the 80's,because i NEVER LEFT the 80's! 🤟
im stuck in 93
for ever young 🤟
If that were the case, you wouldn't be on a platform that did not exist in the 80s. Lol
But please tell me you drive a DeLorean or Fiero and crank the cassette you're listening to while wearing a Spuds MacKenzie shirt! That would bring me SO much joy!
@@nonprogrediestregredi1711 well,i still wear Reebok Pumps.
@@dwade6322 Good enough for me! Lmfao
I love the fact that I got to live through the madness that was the 80s. Fun times!!
Yes it was.
seeing Ozzy at or near his peak was awesome
You survived and it was fun, many did not😅
Gen Z wouldn't understand Nov80s babie here
Jake has more credibility than Crue and Ozzy, he was mostly sober. the funniest thing is when Jake started doing interviews promoting Red Dragon Cartel, he talked about the time Crue tried to replace Mick and offered Jake the job, Nikki tried to dismiss it saying Jake was looking for attention, and then the kerrang interview from 1985 showed up and Nikki got eviscerated online and had to backtrack
Nikki is such a fraud
How are you mostly sober. You're either sober of you're not lol. Not sober doesn't mean you're an addict. If you drink alcohol twice a year.... you're technically not sober
@@MrShenanigans28 easily, most of the hours you are awake, you're sober. If you drink occasionally and get buzzed or drunk you are not sober.
People can be mostly sober, if they spend most of their life/time sober. I think you have a literal interpretation of the word ,not one most follow.
Jake spent of his time sober.
Why someone hasn’t made a book or a movie on Jake E. Lee’s life is a mystery to me. It fits perfectly to an amazing movie. The beginning, the ups, the downs, the coming to terms with reality, and the getting back into it and seeing the people he has missed from back in the day and how respectful the younger generation is to him.
It’s a perfect movie.
I’d watch it a thousand times man.
I love Jake's, sober version of the story. It makes it funnier knowing he was uncomfortable during this madness.
Or stupidity as well, lol.
Jake has way more credibility
nobody in the right mind would be comfortable with that kind of madness to be honest.
This was the first concert I ever attended. Jake was phenomenal
Mine was the Diary tour with Randy in 81!!!
@@chatsworthosbornejr.9153 👍✌️🤘
@@chatsworthosbornejr.9153 Totally agree , way better than pentatonic Zakk!
Me too
Me too
Saw this show three times. Those shows are what I rate every other concert against, and nothing has ever equaled them. Pure metal insanity.
That was a fantastic show! I saw it once
Saw it at msg in NY when I was 17.
Damn! Wish I could've seen this show...sounds like one crazy-circus tour.
you hold Motley crue and Ozzy as the platinum standard? that's absurd......You obviously never say the blizzard of ozz tour with Def Leppard or UFO
I'd figure the next tour with Metallica in their prime with Cliff supporting Ozzy would've blown away Crue/Oz. At least for me it would've lol.
This guy, man…was there another shredder from the 80s, who got it done without a tremolo/whammy bar??
Rad-ass vibrato!
Boston Garden, Daisley/ Sixx side, way up!
Got my handcuff belt confiscated, but got it back on the way out, like coat-check, lol!🤘😎👍
~Class of ‘85
Dave Mustaine, has disdain for the whammy bar, I think to him it's like cheating.
@@sekovittol3124 Ah, yes! Thank you kindly!👍🤘😎
Marty Friedman is another. There were a few Gibson Les Paul shredders who never got into the tremolo stuff.
Yeah
Hendrix Blackmore Beck and EVH are all cheaters for using a trem bar
Lol
Those guys are some of the GREATEST players ever… if not the greatest.
It’s just personal taste man
@@deadreckoning292 Huh? Hendrix, Blackmore and Beck aren’t 80s shredders, imo.
I was asking if there was another from that era that didn’t use a whammy.
Another replied that Mustaine thought it was cheating.
Not sure who you’re speaking to, as nobody here referred to tremolo users as ‘cheaters’…
Would love a FIB Jake E Lee interview
Jake said it was a spider that got snorted, from his recollection, in a video interview/chat he did on Tone-Talk youtube channel
He definitely did say so.
I was front row on this tour, with a party girl on my shoulders. It doesn't get much better than that. Great show from both bands.
I saw the bark at the moon/shout at the devil tour back in 84.
It was kick @$$ 🤘
I met them (except Vince) in 1994 at an autograph signing in Nashville. It was for the tour with Carabi. They were all really nice. Mick even gave my friend a cigarette. But they were sober. I could not imagine being around them when they were out of their minds on drugs and alcohol. They did some crazy shit!
Man hardly anyone showed up at Starwood, they put everyone in the pavilion and taped off the grass
And according to Corabi and what has been hinted at by other members of the band, "they weren't that sober!". What I mean is the intention was to stay sober, but it was (more or less) a merry go round of the members falling on and off the wagon the entire time and the band toured on two buses..Nikki and Mick were on the "sober" bus and Tommy and John were in the "drinking" one.. I believe the most sober member during these years was Mick!. Corabi has claimed he and Tommy drank on the bus, went to clubs, etc and Nikki was known then to fall off the wagon many times and later during the "New Tattoo" era, went totally off the rails with the drinking and blow, but contrary to what some think, claims to have stopped heroin in January of 88' and never went back!.
Saw this show at the Spectrum in Philly, both bands were awesome, Jake was on his game, he did a great job
I was at that show too.
So Jake was the only one with any sense out of the bunch
You miss the 80s man right now I'm yearning for a time machine!!!
I read this book over the summer, got it from my local library. We have a really good one. Great book.
That was the best bill I had ever seen. I’ve seen many concerts too.
I miss the Music & the 80's!!!
With all the shity bands today, I don't blame you.
I remember on the back of shout at the devil it said this record may contain backwards messages..what a genius move to promote the record
Nothing But a Good Time is a great book. I got so into it i finished it in 2 days. Great stories about great bands in the greatest decade.
When rock n roll was real.
Jake E Lee rocked! 🤘🏽
Still rocks.
the first concert that I ever attended. Ozzy/Motley Crue/ Wasted Rochester NY 1984
I love ozzy and motley crue. These guys were some crazy fuckers. I was in my early 20's during the prime time in music and loved every minute of it! 80's rocked man.
Nice to know that Jake walked away from Stupid.
Alcohol, drugs and the road makes people do weird shit.
I saw Ozzy twice with Jake E. Lee. He is just a phenomenal guitarist and musician. He is the only one who could play Randy's songs without sounding like he's attempting to put his own signature or copying the solos note for note. Jake is able to make them sound natural. As for the Ozzy and Sharon........probably the worst people in the industry. Or at least at that time. As said by Ozzy, "I want doe. I want lots of doe".
I guess if you blame one you have to blame the other as no matter how screwed up Ozzy was, he had many moments (from what ive heard) of clarity and sobriety and numerous members come to him over the years over royalty disputes and this is right out of Sabbath, when the band was supposed to be "Blizzard of Ozz", not a solo band and how every musician on those first few albums got royally screwed by the Osbourne's!. I reference this era as im most familial with the shenanigans that went on during this period and all the shady business deals of Sharon Osbourne, who was/is obviously the mastermind and she is her fathers daughter, so much of this is to be expected!..The Osbourne's made a fortune in screwing over the musicians the wrote and played on these albums and I doubt over the years much changed in that department..
Jake is awesome, but all of the guys did a good job with Randy's stuff Joe Holmes did an awesome job, he paid tribute to his teacher well.
ozzy and Darth hideous are lowlifes
@@dgenerated OZzy gets way too much of a free pass, he signs off on the code reds that Darth Hideous executes on, If you know she is a horrible person , make her run stuff by you.
I will only refer to the band name, I never call those first two albums Ozzy albums i think we have an obligation to call it by the legal name, Blizzard of ozz.
Ozzy and darth hideous two of the worst people in music
I remember when they reissued those first two Ozzy albums with different bass and drums. That blew me away the length they would go to. Ozzy said he didn't know about it and would never have signed off on it, but I find that hard to believe. Once the backlash started getting back to him is when I think he realized what a dumb move that was. I've always loved Ozzy's music too. Sharon may have helped save him, but I seriously think he would've made better albums through his post Randy years without her.
@Perpetual Motion ozzys lying , he signed off on it. Darth hideous is a POS. Imagine thinking you need to avoid paying the guys who wrote, recorded and performed the music, despite having millions...
Jakey Lee sold his soul to rock'nroll
He rocked he rolled, he did what he was told. Jakey Lee, from Ten I see.
Come back Come back Jakey to me.
@@sunjester8254 Jakey Lou Williams is his real name…check yourself before you check others.👍
@@sunjester8254 check your pants
@@sunjester8254 Nah, you bitched out someone unnecessarily, when your info itself was incorrect.
Too concerned with being right.
How about give props to the OP and editing or deleting your original comment, as it is wrong and you come off as self-righteous.
Sorry, you’re obviously having a hard time with that!
At the end of the day, I’ll take facts over excellent grammar!🤘
I saw that tour in Portland, Oregon.. An epic metal weekend of Ozzie and the Crue one night and the scorpions the next night.
I caught one of those shows from that tour. Ozzy and Motley Crue in Birmingham Alabama. I was 13 at the time. All i can say is it was one giant party
Greatest party was the 80's with no Mobiles !
Thank you
Saw Monsters of Rock 84 in Karlsruhe Germany. I cant even explain how massive that whole day was...
I admire musical genius and that’s why I clicked on this video, to hear what Jake E Lee had to say then this Bible verse came to mind as I was listening
“whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame-who set their mind on earthly things.”
Philippians 3:19
I saw that tour twice. Once in Indianapolis with Waysted and then in Timber Ridge Michigan at the American Rock Fest. with a bunch of other big names. Day after I graduated high school. I never snorted ants or licked piss. But I lived through some insane times around then. Ozzy & Shout At The Devil were always playing in the background lol
Knowing everything we know about Ozzy, isn't it funny that our parents thought he was the devil reincarnate, when in reality he was just a drunken buffoon.
They were nuts. All of them.😅
Absolutely.
I saw this show May 5th 1984 in Charleston civic center Charleston WV. I dont remember who if anyone opened up for Ozzy that night.
I went to their concert in Rochester, NY 🤟✌️
My wife and I just talked about the ant snorting incident yesterday!!!
Good lord I would have liked to of been a fly on the wall for that tour
Another show ,well done.Love your energy
Perry Parris
Jake e Lee also also swore it wasn't ants it was a tiny spider. Funny how he didn't mention that here
Keep postin Man!!!
❤️ Ur content
Shout at the Devil flipped that cassette from Side A to Side B at least 6 x day.
I remember being in 8th grade and traveling across the Puget Sound to the main land , our football team in a school bus , before exiting I made sure every time before a game, to listen to Knock'em Dead Kid . Even though I probably wasn't going to play in the game, but it's not the worst thing that could happen. I could have been a pussy and not try to make the team.
That was my go to pre game song before games from 96-2001
Wow 🙄 so cool. I want to be just like them.
“Let me finish my beer, THEN I’m outta here”
I saw them with Waysted on the bill too
What if Randy was a sacrifice?? Just a thought 🤔
To whom?
Jake has said it was a little tiny spider Ozzy snorted in an interview. Sorry, can't quite recall the reference. Maybe with Eddie Trunk?
I remember 1984. I had my retirement party.
I'd read that book.
Love the 80s 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Well, Ozzy made great music. That is about it.
the ant snorting thing is in the dirt 🤣
Id walk away from the pool too. My first singer was always drunk doin crap like that 😝. Funny shit
Why and how is there two different versions of this book??? Same exact title, damn near the same cover, and the same subject matter but by two different authors a year apart?
I went to the show in Cleveland (Richfield) on Feb 7, 1984. What I remember the most was waiting for my other high school friends to pick me up. I got into the car and half-way to the concert I couldn't locate my tickets!! I panicked. I made us all drive back to my house in a snow storm. I remember running around my house like an animal looking for my tickets! Finally, in despair I faced my fate of going back out to my friends and telling my girl we couldn't go because I lost our tickets. I opened up the front passenger door and there the tickets were on the ground in the middle of the snow! I picked them up got in the car and said, "Got em! Let's go!!"
That panicked state I was in I have never forgotten and forty years later I am nearly OCD checking my items before I get into the car.
About the concert: I remembered thinking that I am watching a rock legend in Ozzy. His voice. At the same time I also remember we all joked about how he was an "old man" which is what he looked like next to Vince Neil and others on stage. Ozzy was 36 at the time.
I don't remember being blown away by Jake E Lee like I was with Randy but it was a good show.
So they were at a pool in winter makes no sense ,it was my understanding this all happened in Lakeland FL .
That's why it's called the sunshine state.☀️
I meant because the video says it occurred in New York
Ozzy once had a trainer?
3 push ups is all Ozzy could do, hopefully that trainer was just paid in nose bleed concert tickets.
Still driving to blockbuster video..
Its a wonder ozzy survived them days!
Crazy times. I dont know about the snorting of ants. Thats over the top.
they did it, cuzTHATs what they did.
John 3:16
Ozzy P:16
It's been all downhill since the 80's.
I'd say ozzy and Nikki were acting like idiots, they weren't acting.
Texas Power Rails. Wow
i dont give a shit what anyone says. ozzy is the king of rock n roll. 'i am crowley man!' with a half oz of coke😂🤣🤣🤣
Just think if Motley Crue had been halfway responsible. Motley would have been even bigger. Music would have been even better.
They did what kiss has been doing since they started...relying on hype because the talent is long gone.
Ozzy snorted ants..who hasn't?
I mostly just tried to smoke everything.
kinda like to challenge myself , i snort stank bugs
they smell bad though
Jesus I’m getting wasted just thinking about that tour.
Saw the tour stop in Memphis. Mick Mars was the only member of the Crue not too fucked up to pull it off. Ozzy’s band was great but he also was in full buffoon mode. He sang the same verse for the entirety of the song “Believer”. I was f’d up as well, just not on their level. Scale of 1 to 10?…4
Theater of Pain is a terrible album.
Wow.....hahaha
Im always a bit disappointed in Ozzy when I hear things like that. But bad alcoholics do embarrassing shit. I think hes a pretty sweet guy at heart overall tho. It is disappointing that they shafted the people saving his career too. She seems to have a spending problem. Its unfortunate he has not been unbefuddled enough to do something about some of this stuff.
No one should try to one up on ozzy lol. The crue found that out real fast
Texas power rails 😂
lol
Saw it , lots of drugs.
Didn't Crue want Jake to replace Mick?
Yep; it has been confirmed by two people, one of them Jake himself.
Vince using a bottle on a girl....wonder if she would let him do that to her today?
"Cocaine is a hell of a drug"
hahahhahahah
That's the funny thing people try to glorify thus as this cool Rockstar excess and it's really a bunch of juvenile drunks acting like morons. Making fools of themselves.
You people idolize these people? I grew up in the 80s but these 2 groups ozzy especially is a waste of breathe. Motley crue never put out anything worth listening too
Terrible
Likky Piss or Oxy Codone would be a great name for Motleys 5th member ..
Ozzy morefone
After Randy...Jake is definitely the best guitarist ozzy had.
Pretty sure ozzy screwed motley crew at drinking
