Jake was an absolute MONSTER on guitar. And he OWNED that stage.
He's an exceptional guitar player that should have gotten his royalties, it's not right. Thanks!!!
Not least for putting up with one of the Ozzy's worst drinking periods if the stories told hold any truth.
Let’s not even get started on the super weird Badlands licensing blackout!
Absolutely!!! But being modest and down to earth as Jake is, is a reward in itself,that's why he's is still relevant today with much respect among us guitar players.
Agreed - what a lousy way to treat the musicians. It's like indentured servitude. What would it have hurt the Osbournes' profits if someone else who actually did work on it shared some? I'm sure there was more than enough to go around.
@@chriscircelli8821 his current Red Dragon Cartel stuff is absolutely amazing!! He's still got it, if not actually better. And with the big dark and grey gotee he looks like some wise old prophet! 😂🤘🤘
Jake was my favorite of all Ozzy's guitarists. His stuff with Badlands was amazing too.
OMG Jake E. Lee! My guitar Hero! My favorite guitar player. Incredible creativity, technique, original, wonderful stage performance and added to what I've seen, read and heard is a fantastic human being. A guitarist who had to endure so much comparative criticism with Randy and still play in a band that was a real nightmare with Ozzy and his wife. This guy is so underrated in the Rock scene. I am really happy for him that every year this has been changing. 10/10
Jake E Lee is still one of the Greatest Guitarist in the world. He has the whole package of playing style + Looks + Energy.
Jake should be enrolled in the Rock and Roll hall Fame For his Nearly 40 years of Giving his Life to the Music Business.
What Sharon and Ozzy did to Jake and Many Others... Is just Criminal !! How the Hell they had Gotten away with this as well How do they both Sleep at Nights. We Never Know...They completely showed no care and Respect for Jake and all the others. I Hope one day Jake will have the Last Laugh in the End.!!
Well stated 👍
well Sharon got her payback from the view
As a young teenager i used to own the "ultimate sin" album with Jake on it as the lead guitar player. Not one bad song on that album and his playing is phenomenal. Sad to see how it all ended
The Ultimate Sin is a shredding's clinic, insane playing...
I got into The Ultimate Sin to help me learn to write songs in 1993. Grunge / alternative was my choice of music, but my songs kept sounding like nirmudhoneyvana. I ripped off Killer Of Giants SOOO hard, lol.
Ive heard so many people slag that album off and its bloody brilliant. Jakes lead work is phenonemal on it...
"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good people die like dogs. There's also a negative side..." - Hunter S.Thompson
👍
John Gerson. It's a den of thieves. Yoko Ono, Cortney Love are living off their dead husbands. The only reason Ozzy is still alive is we have auto-tune now. Dead artist sometime s make more than live ones.
Well, if anyone knew the sins of the world it was Hunter S.
1984 BATM's tour in Salt Lake City, probably the best live's performance from a guitarist i've ever seen, must watch...
Jake is a once in a lifetime musician, the best player Ozzy ever had...
I totally agree. I was there, with Motley opening when they were in their hayday. Good times.
Also saw him with Badlands at Rafters in Salt Lake City. So close up in a bar performance and he slayed. Never disappoints.
Agree. An incredible video. Jake plays like a demon
Hes very good but no, not the best Ozzy ever had.
DAMN STRAIGHT that batm /album/tour was phenomenal... and so; beer cause of Jake!
He had some really tough shoes to fill after Randy. I think he did a terrific job. I really like his style. I think Randy would have been proud , God rest his soul.
Amen.
Did Jake pass?
@@wingsofpegasus
@@jakeham4017 Nope. He's still kicking with his latest band Red Dragon Cartel.
Agree 100%
Honestly ..he put his shoes on and raised the bar. Randy made mistakes...Jake didnt
Jake was brought in because ozzy realised van halen was where the sales were at that time. Jake was a great looking lad , never stopped moving on stage and could play all the randy rhoads stuff whilst putting his own LA shred slant over it. Just His fills show you how great he is.....easily in my top five guitarists of the 80s... Oh and he wrote some amazing songs for ozzy
Jake made it look almost too easy when he played Rhoads' material. And he had phenomenal stage presence too.
Sharon Osbourne tried to screw Bob Daisley for years too. He wrote almost ALL of the lyrics on every solo album up to and including No Rest For The Wicked.
I know Ill catch hell for saying it by the Randy die hards....but Jake was and will always be my favorite guitarist that Oz has ever had in the band....and he's easily my biggest influence as a player
@@warborn_inc. I wish Jake could have been the long term guitarist for Ozzy, he was such a great replacement for Randy !!
Jake was my favorite Ozzy guitarist
Jake did not have Randy’s feel or phrasing. Randy’s version of this could bring a tear to anyone’s eye.
@@whamsie4022 to be fair, it's just about impossible to recreate any of Randy's material without thinking about the original. With that said.....Jake does an absolutely killer solo during Suicide Solution that you have probably seen floating around on youtube. Being that it's his and not Randy's, it doesn't make me compare it to Randy's at all.
I get that same goofy smile on my face when I listen to Jake play😂
I was lucky enough to see Ozzy with Randy and then later with Jake. They're both incredible guitarists. To me they're tied for 1st place of the guitarists that Ozzy has worked with. Whenever I listen to the records that he did with Randy and then Jake, I'm just blown away. Also, Jake had a great stage presence.
👍
BearBonesWolfFleshLambSkin 2019. Wow ! You saw both of therm. That's amazing ! Yup ! A tie ! Two great guitar players !
Me too...saw Randy, Brad Gillis( that concert was broadcast live from where i live in Memphis Tn), jake and zakk...
Jake also played Randy's stuff in a really kind of authentic way, respecting Randy's original tracks.. while being incredible himself! I love Randy and Jake.. it's one of life's tragedies that Ozzy doesn't realise how good it was with Jake
Jake E Lee is amazing. My fav guitarist without question. He attacks the instrument and when it’s time to ignite the fretboard he lights it up..
I saw them on this tour at Birmingham Hippodrome. Jake put on an incredible performance. So exciting to watch. Superb talent.
Randy would have been in awe of Jake E Lee. Thanks Jake.
jake e. lee is one of my great inspiration , he is an incredibe guitarist
Saw Jake with Badlands he is really awesome and I’m gonna see him next month at a small club with Red Dragon Cartel
Badlands was awesome. They definitely deserve some more attention.
Cool!
Going to see him and RDC at 37main in Buford Ga..cannot wait..
of course, im not surprised by this guys reaction. not many could touch Jake or 80's heavy metal guitarists
I had tickets to Ozzy in 1982 and a month or so out from the show, Randy was killed. The show went on, and many people forget this but I was there, Ozzy had Brad Gillis fill in as a temp guitar player. This is exact same time Night Ranger was hitting it big. Brad did excellent for having such a short time frame to learn all the tunes and solos.
I was very fortunate to have seen Ozzy with Randy a few months before his death one of those live experiences that you can never forget. 👍
Brad got treated like cow pie...screw this I'm outta here!
I had to endure Bernie Torme at the Buffalo show, was so looking forward to seeing Randy. Was my first concert, and I was still mourning Randy's loss, I really couldn't get into it.
i also had tickets to the upcoming show in boston but i decided not to go .i couldn't imagine watching someone else doing Randy Rhodes guitar parts
Hes the guitarist on Ozzies second best live album, Speak of the Devil.
Jake is my favorite player from that era. Still one of my favorites. His playing is emotional and fiery.
Donald Daley. Yup ! Mine to !
I also find Brad Gillis guitar playingn the Speak of the devil live album, amazing. Another amazing underrated guitar player, in my humble opinion
Gillis was a killer player!!!!! Monster
A fantastic showman! Blistering soloage!! Saw him with Ozzy in 86’! He has a unique style; doesn’t use a whammy, doesn’t need one. 🤘🏻
Another great break down of another great guitar player!! ROCK Fil!!
Bark at the Moon is one of my favorite licks of all time! Jake E. Lee is the most underrated Ozzy guitarist for sure.
I have never understood all the criticism Jake receives, most of it coming from my fellow Randy elitists. There have been some legitimate complaints like not liking his tone and such but mostly it's " he sucks Randy is better." I saw Jake with Badlands and I was just in awe the whole time. Plus he has some hidden gems on The Ultimate Sin album that nobody talks about like Fool Like you. So a note to my fellow Randy is the Best club members, You are not honoring his memory by trashing every guitarist to follow him. I believe had Randy lived and simply quit Ozzy, even he would have felt Jake was a more than sufficient replacement.
👍
I got hooked on Osborne's albums because of Jake e Lee. I could not stand that voice and shitty Iommy guitar but Jake E Lee made Osbourne sound very good.
Craig Well said and yes Badlands kicked ass!!!
Craig. The guy was ripped off. They were all ripped off.
JEL’s solo on Bark at the Moon is one of the best on an Ozzy record
One of the overlooked things about Jake's playing (and Randy's) - no tremolo bar used. Any note bending normally done by the bar is done by pushing the neck one way and the body the other (2:43), or by sheer strength of finger bending.
Filling Randy Rhodes' shoes is a challenge for anyone. I'm not a huge Black Sabbath fan, but Lee holds his own on this.
@Fergo no, I didn't know. Thanks for clarifying.
Yeah it can be confusing with Ozzy being seen as Sabbath!
@Fergo 😉
Black Sabbath have had only one guitarist...the incomparable Tony Iommi
@@michaelketley876 That my man is correct. Tony Iommi is & always will be the THE guitarist.
Thank you so much I love watching these great guitarist
Jake is a badass, no doubt about it. His work with Ozzy and Badlands was great. Just checked out Red Dragon Cartel the other day and from I heard it impressed me, so I will check that out more in detail. What I like about his playing is not just his lead playing, but his rhythm playing as well he plays a lot of complex riffs that are challenging to get right.
I remember I studied Jake E Lee when I was learning guitar on my Hohner SG Ferrari!!
Jake was big on hammer-on finger slides which emulated an echo. And playing the tight strings behind the first fret, for effect.
Good days.
Randy Rhoads fans do not like hearing this but I'm going to say it anyway Jake E Lee is every bit the guitarist that Randy was especially his rhythms, in my honest opinion are more complex. Jake also has more of a Van Halen style fire in his playing, in the early days anyway! Bark at the Moon especially that is a very complex Rhythm structure!
Jake E Lee was a one riff wonder with Bark at the Moon. Randy Rhoads on the other hand wrote far more complex catchy riffs in his short time with Ozzy. But they both copied Eddie Van Halen though Zakk Wylde was way better than Jake E Lee when he took over.
@@truthseeker9636 you obviously don't play guitar lol!
@@Marshall-uy2dv played for 30 years.
Truth Seeker Jake E Lee, technique wise, is better than Zakk. Zakk just steam rolls his way thru the music, pinch harmonics galore. Oh, I’ve been playing guitar since 1980. I know what I’m talking about.
@@keithblackwelder1751 Whatever.
I love Jake but it seems that during this era, the keyboards were always way too loud in the mix
sprtstr96 WAY too loud. Keyboards have no business in hard rock. God I hate Ozzy.
There’s a version on RUclips that has NO keys. Pure guitar greatness 😄
@xblackcatx13
Keyboards have no business in hard rock.
Deep purple: Hold our water
Keyboards were the main intro to Mister Crowley so I guess that's where it came in this particular song. But seeing both Blizzard of Ozz and ultimate sin live there really wasn't a whole lot of keyboards throughout all the songs. Just a little bit here and there for intros
Jake's playing was so horribly underrated, he was a BEAST!!! To just pull off the phrasing the way that he did was so impressive, not to mention a lot of the subtle nuances that Randy originally wrote!
👍
As a huge Ozzy fan, glad to see you did a video on Jake E. Lee! Underrated Guitarist!
I also wanted to add that you did an excellent quick breakdown of the history between the osbournes and Jake E Lee..very well done
Thanks!
Sharon screwed over Bob Daisley and Lee Kerslake just the same. Jake didn't deserve it either. He was such a great replacement for Randy.
Ozzy’ career got a big extension with Randy and Jake as his guitar players. Those two guys brought the talent; they pretty much carried Ozzy - and Sharon.
I know someone who grew up with Randy... she said Sharon and Ozzy were only paying Randy a thousand a week. She said Randy wasn't happy about it because Ozzy was raking in hundreds of thousands per show during the Blizzard and Diary tours. She thinks that was another reason Randy wanted to leave Ozzy...
@@scottdunn2178 Eventually everyone leaves Ozzy
Ozzy didn't forget Jake though. Jakey got to tour with him on the Ozzmosis tour. I saw it and it was great!!!
Why review a guitarist covering another guitarist?
Randy Rhoads was irreplaceable. Jake did a Great job. Later guys miss the mark(Zakk). But yeah Jake was a close proximity too Rhoads in regards too theory and style'ism in play. Jakes best work is Bark at the moon and Ultimate sin. Grossly underated albums imo. Thanks Fil you rock.
Too be fair, I think most of Ozzy's guitarists are irreplaceable. Randy, Jake and Zakk all have a very distinct style and sound and their individual styles really shine through on the albums they played on.
Bullshit Rhoads was very replaceable and he was..end of conversation
Well it was bound too happen. A complete Dumbass just made it into this otherwise well going analysis and dialog we had going. Now Sir Jerks A Lot Angelo has the intellect too somehow degrade the Fact that Rhoads was and Is Well beyond what most musicians have ever achieved in their life's. Randy did so in a 2 year span and it is still world wide and happening today. Only an Idiot or Fool would post what Angelo posted.
@@BlueberryStinkFinger62 Alright Angryo, I get that's your opinion, but I respectfully disagree. I think this video is a great example of how Rhoads was irreplaceable. It's great the Jake put his own spin on it, but his interpretation is not an improvement on the original. Each time Ozzy hired a new guitarist, in particular the three guitarists I mentioned previously, the style of music changed Ozzy played changed.
@@ricdale7813 a complete dumbass is you and a handful of Rhoads fanboys who continue to try you see TRY! To blow smoke up are Asses about Rhoads being this great guitarist...do you know Rhoads doesn't even place in the Top ten with the all time greats like Eddie van halen & Jimi Hendrix it's you Randy Rhoads fanboys who keep building Rhoads up to be something he wasn't or never will be ...he's never in the top ten of the Guitar Greats because he doesn't deserve it...he done Nothing to deserve it...end of conversation
Love your videos - love your choices - love your impressions. The whole thing always make me happy! Thanks so much for all you do!
Thank you for this. Jake is one of my favorite musicians; he never is lost on the frets, such a range of fluidity and control in his playing.
Imagine stepping into the shoes as the lead guitarist for Ozzy after the phenom that Randy was (RIP). Not only did Jake excel at this but some of his songs were completely knocked out of the park with classics like Bark at the Moon. It was criminal that Jake wasnt paid his dues. The ugly side of the music industry. Ozzy, Sharon - WTF were you thinking?
Jake stepped in and did a really, really great job. It’s always tough to see another musician (or vocalist for that matter!) have to step in after a departure of a key component of the sound of a band. To bad the relationship with Ozzy ended regardless of the reason. I think he’s one of those guys who can play anything you throw at him and make it sound fantastic with his own style.🤙🏻😎🎸
👍
Fil there is a vid of Jake with the Red Dragon Cartel playing Bark at the moon at some small bar and what he does with the end of song solo is mind boggling. how i wish it was on the actual recording of the song.
My brother is probably one of the biggest Randy Rhoads fans in the world. Or at least he was until you passed away of an aneurysm a few years back. He actually had the same style of hair is Randy Rhoads in the same facial features. It's funny now when I look at pictures of Randy I can still see my brother. Anyways I watched him collect Randy Road stuff for years. I wasn't fortunate enough to see Ozzy why Randy Rhoads was alive but I know every note of every song that the man played. On the other hand I did get to go to the Bark at the Moon concert and the ultimate sin concert with backstage passes. Not only was Jake are huge stage presence and phenomenal guitars. But he was also a great and amazing person. He is a true musician. He is also a true inspiration.
Another great analysis Fil. I have been so lucky to see Ozzy with Randy, Jake, and Zakk. It's my understand that Ozzy insists that all of the guitarists after Randy play as close to note for not Randy's parts. Everybody wins.
I will bet anything that the deal Jake had the Osbourne's sign is the reason why The Ultimate Sin is not available or in his catalog now.
Lee Bunn. Your kidding ! It's such a great album ! They committed the "Ultimate Sin". Stealing money from starving musicians.
actually the story about the ultimate sin is royalties and songwriting credits to the past bass player Phil soussan he wrote shot in the dark and there is a feud there between him and ozzy look it up
Also I love the way Phil watches the videos of the guitar playing. He looks like he's watching someone cook a steak or something delicious and he can't wait to eat it.
I saw that tour in person. It was great 👍
Another great analysis. The more people who know Jake's crucial contribution to Ozzy classics the better. Definitely right on the versatility. A musician far more inclined towards bluesier 70s grooves (based on his output post-Ozzy) who nevertheless took crazy 80s flash techniques further than any other Ozzy guitarist. While Randy will always be the greatest Ozzy guitarist - especially due to his innovation and writing ability - Jake for me had the most effortless feel on the guitar and the best vibrato.
Thanks!
Fil, 'bout time we had early (ie pre 75) Sabbath analyzed. Everybody knows how great Tony & Ozzy were, but a lot of people don't realize just how fantastic Bill Ward & Geezer Butler were in their prime. One of the greatest hard rock rythm sections of all time.
Bill Ward is an awesome jazz drummer.
@@mikecoleman4795 those two made Tony good but simple guitar riffs and playing sound incredible
He was amazing live... learned a great deal from him as a guitarist
He's one of the underrated
guitarists.
His ingenious technique called
"Jake Fake" was great!
Then his looks and play are
perfect for Ozzy's worldview.
My favourite Ozzy album is The Ultimate Sin and my favourite concert video is The Ultimate Ozzy.
Jake! He will be out on tour soon with RDC.
Jake E is awesome. One of my faves
I've seen Jake several times Oz, Badlands, Cartel. Great musician.
Paranoid at the US fest. Lee on that solo was fantastic, and that was Iommi's piece.
Please review Jake with Badlands. 1st album was epic. True hard rock masterpiece. Ray Gillen's vocals are incredible.
William Najger Agreed!
His chord playing back on the ultimate sin album is what was super difficult
Plus.. saw thus live several times same year.. some of our greatest concert memories
Cool!
Jake E. Lee rules! He is an underrated guitar player, but he really is a guitar god and not just a replacement 👍
Check out Killer of Giants, Rock n' Rebel, all his rythm parts are amazing! He is a complete well-rounded player.
ln God We Trust. He's my favorite Ozzy guitar player.
Oh I almost forgot his vibrato technique, did not need a whammy bar and the US Festival performance of over the mountain is a good example, doing the whammy bends without a whammy bar is most impressive!
Larry Johnson. Tell me about it ! His technique is superb !
Make me cry. Jake is forever.
Saw him
85 86 long time ago. 17 maybe. Yep. Awesome....
A lot of the comments blame Sharon for screwing Jake and who knows who else, but don't let Ozzy skate. It sounds like one of those deals where the guy lets someone else be the heavy so he can have the benefits and none of the blame.
Yeah Ozzy is always seen as the bumbling singer who doesn’t know where he is but he was actually a tough guy, fired people , punched people and was vengeful towards Ronnie Dio. He definitely shares
Ozzy had a part on almost everything Sharon did, especially stealing royalties from his musicians.
Jake himself said that Ozzy told to his face he fucked him. People pretend he's this goof that took too much drugs and just wanted to make great music.
He's not. Ozzy punched Randy Rhoads in the face when he wanted to quit the band before the accident. Ozzy act like they were like brothers, reality seems much different, they hated each others in the last days.
Ozzy also headbutted and broke bassist Don Costa's nose for no reason before firing him. After he paid for his surgery to keep everything silent.
Such a friendly guy.
And lee Kerslake didn't even get his gold and platinum album plague until he was on his death bed
I had forgotten the impact OZZY had on my life. I was looking forward to another analysis but when the video started, I was transported back to the age of, well you know, way the hell back.
Good times!
Thank You very Much Mark.
Love all your Videos. :)
Jake did a good job, I really liked his last solo, they got his volume up loud enough, he is just so melodic on that solo, it is a shame he got robbed on that album that sold so many copies here in the US. Well, as Fil said, musicians don't understand the money part too much unfortunately,
An idea of a topic which relates to seeing musical origins, (which might not be worth the trouble), is that I have always thought that a straight line could be drawn from the octave soloing of Wes Montgomery to the Hendrix instrumental piece "Villanova Junction Blues" at the end of his Woodstock performance (There's a cover by Steve Tibbetts). And seeing that Hendrix performance as inspiration to a younger generation of players, you could draw a line to Steve Vai with his octave playing in "Sisters" and "Tender Surrender", and another line to Eric Johnson's "Manhattan", and "East Wes". I'm not saying that they didn't know about Wes Montgomery, but that the Hendrix piece might have been a catalyst in them incorporating octaves in their playing (since they are both Hendrix fans). I find this kind of stuff interesting, but it would involve using a few different clips, and might just be too much work.
It sounds interesting, you should stick a video together and see how it works!
Actually I have been in the audience at that gig. It was "RockPop In Concert" in the Westfalenhalle in Dortmund, Germany, December 17/18, 1983.
Cool!
Jake is actually unique. You can tell he is playing without seeing him and thats a huge thing.
I agree,Jake was unbelievable.
Wesley Burrell Understatement !
Honestly he hasn't gotten his fair recognition from everything I have seen. As far as Ozzy solo goes, I love Randy (obviously), and Zakk Wylde is awesome, but Jake is up there with those two easily. This may be an unpopular opinion, but my personal favorite album is The Ultimate Sin, which was a Jake E Lee album. I was a junior or senior in high school, at Circle K getting gas and I saw the cassette for dirt cheap. I played the fuck out of that cassette. That's what got me really into Ozzy. I recommend anyone who loves Ozzy to give that album another listen.
Another great vid Phil!! Jake’s one of those players that has flash in spades, but that feel that he has is a rare gift. He holds those bends out & kills ya with the vibrato. He deserves so much praise for his talent! I swear, Musicians Institute should hire Jake to teach a course in feel. It’s a lost art lol!
Great analysis Fil... fascinating to hear your thoughts as always
No disrespect to George Lynch, but Jake was the right choice to replace Randy. To see how good Jake really was, search You Tube for "Ozzy Osbourne - Bark At The Moon (Live 1984)". If that's really live playing -- check out the monstrously good solo -- Jake was on fire here. Ozzy's two best solo-band guitarists were Randy and Jake, in that order.
Yeah!
Agree, Randy then Jake. Brad Gillis did a great job, Zakk - too much pinch stuff.
Another hired gun.... but what a gun!! Jake is an amazing guitarist! He complimented Ozzy big time! So bloody sad what Sharon did to him....the smiling tyrant! Played his ar#se off and co wrote songs....and got royally scre#wed! What’s wrong with people! Ozzy the front man and Sharon the cash register! Hats off to you Jake your brilliant! Great analysis Fil! Cheers Mario!😀🤘🤘
🤘🙂
Grew up in San Diego, and used to go see Jake perform with a band called Teaser, when I was a teenager. Was always in awe of the guy. StraitaHead Sound was the venue, it was actually a teen nightclub, and some really great musicians filed through there along with Jake. Watching this brought back some great memories. Thanks Fil, I know this analysis is a year old, but I come across some of these gems from you that I missed, from time to time.
There we go again. The benefits as relates to royalties surface again. Can’t wait to hear your video on #Royalties.
Vita Health. I wonder if she made them sign their contracts in blood.
Jake was Great with Ozzy My favorite song that Jake played was. BARK AT THE MOON (AWESOME SOLOS IN THE MIDDLE AND THE END) EVEN THE VERSES AND CHORUSES WAS BAD ASS GUITAR WORK!!! Check out the cleaner guitar work on the song "Killer of Giants"
Fil, Jake's band Red Dragon Cartel (Patina) is incredible ! He's also said he won't be playing Ozzy songs anymore. OZ has had awesome guitarists. But the only ones Sharon hasn't screwed over is Randy, and Zakk. Don Airey on Keys. Bob and Lee recorded the first 2 albums but never toured.
Im sure she would have fucked over randy eventually too had he lived long enough.
Randy never got to live that long to get screwed by Sharon and Ozzy, and Zakk Wylde is just a mediocre guitarist and an ass kisser.
Mark Birchette. That's because he's dead ! He probably signed a similar contract.
J Cavazos No shit? I saw the tour he was killed on. Still got Front row pictures of him playing his poka dot V . Another master of the obvious. You people kill me with your lack of common sense. Most of you are just lost. Did you really think you were passing any new info. Christ Almighty. Bitch hasn't fucked over Zakk, and his nose is so far up their ass it's sickening.Randy had told Ozzy he was quiting after that tour to pursue his classical interests. More old news. You missed the whole point. SMMFH
I Saw Jake Play with BADLANDS with the LATE GREAT RAY GILLEN in PGH in 89 and He Had a FN CAST on his LEG and STILL KICKED ASS.!! I SEEN BADLANDS.2x and it was BEAUTIFUL WHILE it LASTED! ! They Really Had Something Special It's SAD How it Ended !!.
Cool!
Great critique Fil, nice job pointing out Jake's nuances and his approach to playing these solo's
Maybe consider doing a Bark at the Moon video or the solo spot on "The Ultimate Ozzy"? Like you said, this is Jake playing a Randy part. It would be interesting to see an analysis of Jakes Technique which has a lot of unique and great things.
Thanks!
A great guitarist, but I never cared for Ozzie!! I learned a lot from your analysis, Fil...you're the BEST!!!
Thanks Sally!
Sally Nielsen. Me neither !
Love your insights Fil - for me though it's Bark At The Moon - Jakes work in those to solo's is incredible
Yes he's a great guitarist one of my favorite
Jake did it his way...way more technical and he has taste. Randy was not his contemporary..Jake was doing his thing when Randy was in Quiet Riot..in Japan..so he wasn't an influence on Jake. Jake came in expected to fail..he came in and killed...watch the US Festival..he only had 6 weeks to prepare. He was in a bar/pub band..played for 25 people a night..6 weeks later,opened for 600k people and destroyed them. That's pressure
You should do a video on Badlands!!!!
I agree. Back in the early 90's, I played in a band that was in that phase of signing several offers/contracts..Thankfully, We had an issue with a band mate arise during that time, and eventually, disbanded. I wanted that fame, fortune back then, but am so happy it never came to be now that I've learned more of the business...Its cut-throat for sure.
I seen Jake with Ozzy in 1983 at the US Festival in CA. He was fantastic!
Cool!
I really like Jake's playing and his personality. I feel for the guy. I've
been lucky enuff to see him w/Mickey Ratt,Ozzy, Badlands, and the Cartel. He always gives it his all. I was hoping that both he & Warren DeMartini would re-unite
in ratt.
Was Jake's Fender/Charvel painted white yet while playing in Mickey Ratt? Thanks
@@jahjah67
Yes, The Pearl White Charvel strat
with blk pickguard (it looked brand new!) The bassist had a Charvel starbody w/lighting bolt grafix.
The other guys used gibson explorers & Vees. Pearcy played a BC Rich half of the gig-
@@matthewpaluch777 awesome. Was Robbin Crosby in the band and do you know if there are recordings of Jake with Mickey Ratt? I saw Jake with Ozzy in '84 and '86. Saw him with Badlands in a tiny club and the show and his sound was fantastic. I'm assuming you lived in Southern California to catch Mickey Ratt.
@@jahjah67
Hey BM, yea I was living in So.Cal
@the time. No, Robin wasn't in the
band yet. Great times! Saw Q.Riot,
M.Crue, Roxx Regime (Stryper),
etc. Bought Athena Bass acouple
of shots @da Whiskey once (Tommy Lee's sister.)
Carlos Cavazo of Quiet Riot came cheaper. Do you believe Michael Schenker was in RATT ever? He had to take a back seat to Michael. That's seriously jacked up! They were lucky to be doing Casinos and that was if Stephen Pearcy ever showed up or was even in the band at the time. I saw him doing a bunch of covers at a dive. Like Breakin' the Law by Priest which he butchered.

Ozzy is on record as saying he never really clicked with Jake E Lee they didn’t have a close relationship. We all know why poor Jake got shit on from a massive height. Great video thanks 😊
Loved Jake E. Lee's work on Badlands.
The sad thing is Jake ended up working as a BMW mechanic in Las Vegas. He’s a guitar legend who should be living well off the royalties from Ozzy and Whitesnake. Dirty players out there. But all the money in the world won’t make a miserable person like Sharon less miserable.
Another great analysis and break down. side note, I know a young female artist who a guitarist, pianist, songwriter, and composer. She quite good at it. She also smart to know She does not want all the B.S. from the music industry to go professional. witch is sad because I feel She could be the Joni Mitchell of today's generation. Thanks for another analysis Fil.
Seeing and reading this is all new to me. Woe. I like to write screen plays and plan to make an independent film. Would I be wrong leaving out all of the names of people making it in front of and behind the camera and call it my own? It appears to me to have been a very stressful time for the OO band to grieve and accept anyone to replace family in a case like this. I believe Jake E. Lee must have been compared to Randy Rhoads during this early time as not good enough. Only Ok. Regarding adding new songs/riffs wasn't part of OO plan despite the effort made to fill that gap and move ahead with Lee. I can't imagine trying to carry on with tour dates when that team building to family start after the songs are written and played. That's drama. A good one for the Osbournes to air. I imagine few words and more bleeps. I've learned it takes four steps to create a team to complete and my guess they made it to step 2. Lee was in 3 if they split. Aren't Royalties earned to the team created? How can a contract be written to say your not entitled? Does every team member need an agent? I always thought band members were working together and shared equally. Is there deception on who is more valuable? Who gets the Lion's Share? Even dogs get rewarded scraps after a big meal. This sounds like greed came before group. Probably why good bands break up. If this is for Jake to get his share; lesson learned. I think he could get his own band, play what he wrote, and should get his own agent. Who does he play with now?
I've been watching you at strange times! Abu Dhabi, NZ and aus, I was like what's Fil doing on now! Back home to Newcastle, great vid. Oh and I def want more Fanny! They were awesome!!
Haha thanks!
Jake is so under-rated. One of my favorites. You should do some of his live Badlands videos.
