this happened on February 15, 1982, the highlight of the tour according to Rudy, despite lingering tension from the double live album to feature Sabbath covers
This was in Beaumont Texas. It is a shame that this venue is a covered, outside, sand bottom rodeo arena. I live here. I was 13. When a good Band would come in we would go to my cousins house which was behind this coliseum to listen and hang out. Love & RIP from us girls way out back 💙 Randy Rhoads
Proof?! Please prove that you really was friends with Randy's Nephew!! if you're another bullshiter, I'll tell you everything that is possible about you in less than 7 minutes. 👍
@@dr.bimbambula at least that’s what he made me believe, since it’s one of the few interviews that that I’ve seen where he can actually process a thought in full sentences and I could actually understand everything he said.
Ozzy had some very cool sober windows in his career. The best part about only smoking weed and drinking a bit is there is a time of lucidity in between and often the effects of the use are not prominent. Coke has some prominent after effects with involuntary fidgeting so you can tell when Ozz wasn't snorting the mountain and kissing silver inlaid clouds.
I was fortunate to see Randy Rhoads in concert on the Diary of a Madman tour, February 19, 1982, in Corpus Christi, Texas, a month before his untimely passing. It really hit me hard, because he was the reason I took up classical guitar lessons to add to my Heavy Metal guitar playing. I still have the original Randy Rhoads Guitar World magazine Interview titled "A Cinderella Story" of how he got the gig with Ozzy, and the follow up Tribute magazine of the same interview. I would cut out pics from magazines and cover my walls completely with my favorite Heavy Metal bands, but not from these Randy Rhoads mags. They are my prized collection. Rest In Peace Randy, We'll meet in the end.
People forget, he was still a teenager when he joined Ozzy. To be that freakin good at his age is astounding. Even though he was not on this earth very long, Randy Rhoads still inspires generations of rock guitar players. Imagine what he could have done with another 50 years on this earth?
Been listening to ozzy for over 35 yrs, my first concert as a matter of fact! He loved randy, its hard to see him hurting even today when he speaks of him.....
He died just days after my 12th birthday and right after I saw him in the Colosseum in Houston 1982. One of the last and very few shows he played on the Diary Of A Madman tour. I miss him so much. I bet Randy, Kevin, and Frankie are jammin' right now. God bless them and their families.💜🙏☺👍
@@Daniel-kx7ip Did you go? That tour was so badd-ass! I wore my DOAM concert jersey($21 back then) to school the very next day after the show. It had stains from the stuff Ozzy was throwing into the crowd. Like some kind of meat or something. I cried for a long time after Randy died. Many people did. God bless you friend.💜👍
Un chitarrista eccezionale ed un musicista unico. Sono orgoglioso e felice di aver vissuto questa epoca per aver conosciuto una miriade di stra eccezionali musicisti e chitarristi di portata straordinaria🎸👍
Sound checks are where the most extraordinary things happen that are just practiced. There was smoke coming off of Randy Rhodes guitar neck when he was laying down his licks man was extraordinary absolutely extraordinary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then there's Ozzy being Ozzy.
The golden days of rock. So many bands with talent unlike todays trash. I still remember playing Blizzard of Ozz for the first time on my cassette deck. We all thought Ozzy was done and here comes this monster album with a brand new sharpshooter on guitar. I wore out a bunch of tapes of this and DOAM. The legend of Randy Rhodes still burns bright
Anyone else notice that Randy started evolving in 82? I was listening to a Montreal 82' recording of "Mr Crowley" and he was using a lot of Pinch Harmonics, and pedal effects that sounder closer to a Zakk Wylder rendition of the same song.
you mean the King Biscuit Montreal show in July 81? Even Max norman said his playing and writing was night and day from the BOO tour and album He used them sparingly and effectively, Zakk overuses them
I heard somewhere that the Gibson shirt Randy is wearing is the shirt he wore when he crashed, shit about Ozzy caught a piece of that shirt sometime after the crash
What amaze me the most is how good Ozzy is to find good guitar players, ofc Rhoads is my favorite guitar player of all time but you cant deny the line up of guitar player he have had.
@@devolve42 A bump becomes not even a drug anymore after a while to addicts.. It becomes more like just taking an aspirin or something. It's not even looked at as a "drug"
I was living in Baytown Tx, at the time, and I went to this show. Then a couple Nights later saw them again in Houston at the Sam Houston Colosseum. Phenomenal Shows! Funny thing is, I really didn’t realize what I was witnessing. Well, as they say: You don’t know what you have,....... Until it’s gone.
I was thoroughly entertained. Didnt expect that Quite Riot vid at the end. I turned down a ticket to see Ozzy with Randy once cuz money was tight. Then there was no, "Next year."
I saw diary of a mad man tour June 4 1982 at Toronto maple leaf gardens With Santers band opening up ..unfortunately just before the passing of the great Randy Rhodes ..I was only 15 and remember the audience chanting Rhodes name throughout the whole concert to honor of him.
I was at that gig ...i was about to turn 18 on the 14th Had taken the 14 hour train ride from Northern Ontario...my first real trip to Toronto .. first huge concert and time at MLG... I remember Santers.. Brad Gillis...and a ton of weed smoke in the air. About a week or so later saw Scorpions and Rainbow at CNE. I actually went on to sing for a living for well over a decade including tons of gigs at Gasworks/Heaven etc at one point opened for Night Ranger in Columbus Ohio...second and last time i saw Brad Gillis...
Yes I remember the weed smoke aswell..the ushers were busy that night lol..I saw ozzy a few times ..I remember apart of the show where he hung a midget.. not sure if it was that show or not . do you remember that happening in the 82 show ? Yes gasworks and those quart beer and the bands ..was a great time in the 80s down on yonge st.. What was your band called might of seen you ?
It's funny how things go... He died that same year (1982) and one year later Yngwie arrived in the US to change the world with his neoclassic style. Randy didn't even have the chance to listen to Malmsteen, and I wonder what would he think of Malmsteen's playing.
@@snowyrain5730 I understand that you like Randy Rhoads, and i like him too. However, Rhoads is not even close to what Malmstenn does. Two different universes where Malmsteen is on a different level.
@@dorianponcela9680 I would argue that Randy actually composed quality music that is interesting and that you want to listen to repeatedly. He could shred (Mr. Crowley solo), he could play ballads (Goodbye to Romance & Tonight), he could create dramatic and beautiful soundscapes (S.A.T.O. and the instrumental section of Revelation/Mother Earth). Everything Randy did had quality (maybe except No Bone Movies, LOL). While technically impressive, nothing Malmsteen has done is particularly memorable or interesting.
@@wastrel09 Well, I've been listening to Malmsteen for a long time and he has a lot of memorable and interesting stuff... :) Most people say that it's all on his first three or four albums, and when he was in Alcatrazz. However, he has composed amazing songs on each of his albums until now, but maybe not so great as his first years. Randy did amazing things in only two years and he could have done a lot more. However, Malmsteen is a unique musician and not only a guitar player.
Oh for fuck’s sake, you feeble minded god freaks. Quit putting your weirdo stank on everything. Now we’ve got to hide the kids, god weirdos are around...
I can't be the only one who noticed Randy playing Eruption between 1:20- 1:38? After hearing that I have a whole new outlook on Randy. I was around for the Eddie/Randy war of the 80's. Of course I chose Randy. It looks like Randy respected and appreciated Eddie more than the press let on.
Steven Passarelli Randy treated Eddie well, but that didn’t go both ways. Eddie was too jealous and competitive. Randy was generous and helping. Great person...best rock guitar player there ever was.
That wasn't eruption dude. Just because a person taps, that doesn't mean it's eruption. Ed definitely made it popular and it became a staple among guitarists. But Randy had to learn Ed's stuff because his students wanted to learn it. There is a youtube of a lesson with Randy playing some van halen riffs. That's just awesome

@@alexalexalex797 I've read my comment again after almost a year and I realized something. I do agree with your comment. Distinctive, stable voice. Consistent career. Where my problem stems from is from January 16th, 1996 Broome County Arena. Front Row, right(ish) side of the stage for the whole show. Korn opens. Never heard of them but absolutely LOVE their show. Munkey flicks a pick and nails me right in the eye with it. Ozzy's show starts and you can just hear it in his voice from the first slurred scream that he was stumbling drunk. Sweat pants, ripped up t-shirt, literally stumbling around. Still butthurt about that.
I think Randy really helped Ozzy with his drug problem for the time. Sure he would still do stuff and drink a lot, but Randy's mentality definitely helped Ozzy, and I personally think he is at his best here. Sadly though, after Randys death, he resulted to drugs yet again, as you can clearly tell in later interviews. I miss Randy and Ozzy in his main prime. Wish he never left. Rock on Randy.
Wow ton of those licks exactly what he played on his live unaccompanied solo Suicide Solution off Tribute album He not only composed his leads but that solo AMAZING

Only Ozzy can talk for an hour and his mouth hardly moves.
because Sharron is really doing the talking ;)
Ozzy in this 1982 interview: "I've cleaned up since 1978." Hmmmmm...........
Well then randy died which sent him into more drugs and booze
Yeah, but he seems sharper here than I've ever seen him in any interview. (maybe just meth)

Ozzy's show starts and you can just hear it in his voice from the first slurred scream that he was stumbling drunk. Sweat pants, ripped up t-shirt, literally stumbling around.
Still butthurt about that.
@@joeyvanostrand3655 what can i say man, shit happens 🤷♂️
I mean we’re talking about a man who literally bit off a bats head on stage 😅
Was this Ozzy's most sober moment of the entire 80s?
Still not the smartest beer in the pack
"The humane society is saying I have been blowing up goats, I don't know where that came from." 🤣🤣🤣
--- too cool - long live Ozzyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
I think Randy really helped Ozzy with his drug problem for the time. Sure he would still do stuff and drink a lot, but Randy's mentality definitely helped Ozzy, and I personally think he is at his best here. Sadly though, after Randys death, he resulted to drugs yet again, as you can clearly tell in later interviews. I miss Randy and Ozzy in his main prime. Wish he never left. Rock on Randy.
Wow ton of those licks exactly what he played on his live unaccompanied solo Suicide Solution off Tribute album
He not only composed his leads but that solo AMAZING
Randy was a classical guitarist, and it shows right here. What a loss
Rip great Randy 😘
He was pure metal.
Ozzy doesn't look stoned here. Awesome.
Ozzy sounds so sharp here. Bizarro World!
Free mind, yeah ROCK ON 🎸❤️
Saw this tour about a week or so after the Texas dates. I'm guessing this was shot at the Beaumont gig?
Back when Ozzy could string a sentence together
But he sure can sing every word
WHERE WAS THIS? this is guitar history.
Holy shit how you found this!? Thanks for the upload!
