There's not too many videos of him. Every know and then, someone will post a clip of a blurry Randy Rhoads, ducking into a heavily wooded area and disappearing.
Life is strange. He was one of the guitarists that were older than me, that I'd look up to back when I was a kid. Today, in 2021, I was just watching these solos of a young Randy Rhoads, frozen in time. And for the first time, it dawned on me that he is young enough to be my grandson.
@@70snostalgia A more cogent memorial to Randy Rhodes is that he died preventing an insane coked-up roady piloting a light plane he should never have been allowed near from killing his (the roadie's) wife and others in a caravan he was trying to ram. . A very under-remembered and very genuine hero - as well as a genuine muiscal genius.
he did? he just stabbed him in the back changing his story about Randy being the greatest he ever worked with now changing it to Tony Iommi Ozzy romanticizes that relationship
He didn’t play with feeling, he played with passion like his life fucking depended on it. He embodied the music. He became the music. He could play fast as hell but it was nowhere near sloppy, he was clean as fuck. Tricks? Sure, he could do them, but that’s not what he was all about. He incorporated classical music into his work in a way no one else had done before. The dude could solo, riff, read and write like a God. Long live the king that is Randy Rhoads.
Музыка 🎶 Ренди Роудса , эти два первых альбома Оззи, это лучшие его альбомы с точки зрения сочетания музыки и мелодии . От солло к большинству композиций стынет сердце , от того что думаешь , что да действительно написаны шедевры как будто он Ренди знал , предвидел , что другого шанса у него не будет . Уверен что нет другого такого гитариста как Ренди Роудс узнав уего путь творчества , это же надо быть с таким сознанием чтобы добившись такого успеха игнорировать славу рок музаканта и говорить я просто хочу играть на гитаре . Его коллеги по группе Оззи говорили , что Рэнди только любил играть на гитаре, в то время как другие увлекались разными веществами ...... 😅.
So genuinely modest, like when he was receiving an award and didn't understand why they chose him. Most likely because playing guitar to Randy is like breathing to the rest of us
Yea man. I seen him during both tours. Blizzard and Diary '81 & '82. I was 19 & 20yo. Sounded just like the album, imho. He was the king. Very grateful to have witnessed the master in real life. God bless his soul. He'll live on in my heart forever. Randy was THE man!
Unlike alot of musicians who play doped up to hell and back RANDY was drug free and when he died in that awful plane crash the whole world knew according to his toxicology report the only thing in his system was nicotine. People may not take stock in the fact he was that way but he was real , present , and true to his craft. I have nothing but the highest of respect for that and the man. His family should be very proud of how he truly was an angel and resisted temptation even though it was there for the taking. In my opinion that is the mark of a true man. May he rest in peace in the halls of God almighty entertaining him with his spot on beautiful music....
@@10zeppcheeto Yes . Randy's pilot of the airplane went for a dive bomb move of their tour bus. The plane hit a power line and started spinning . They crashed into the ground and exploded on impact .
The wing clipped the bus first then a tree the the house. It was insane. The guy flying the plane was actually the bus driver. He took the plane for a joyride. The plane belonged to the guys house they were at. They stopped there for AC repairs to the bus. @@jamesvaughan1999
Randy was a guitar god. I am very proud to be able to experience him with Ozzy shortly before his tragic death. The news back then was a shock and I was pretty much at the end. One of the best guitar ever. Rock in Heaven.
Mr Crowley is probably one of the best guitar solos ever. And the outro solo is just insane. If there was any other takes of his solo it would be awesome to someday hear them.
Greatness. I briefly met Randy at Guitar Center West Hollywood in 1978 or 79 80, + or -. A more humble and polite gentleman you could never hope to meet.
Had the privilege of seeing Randy on Ozzy's first solo tour in Buffalo at a theater. Original 3 piece Motorhead opened the show...what a friggin night.
Randy Rhoads was something special. His playing was like a rolling rapid with complete control. A virtuoso. A burning candle that got snuffed too soon. I only hope that his life inspires others to keep that flame burning for a very long time.
Yes!! Somewhere out there there is some live stuff that I heard on Sirius "Ozzy's Boneyard" that I woulda swore it was the Tribute recording, except he had so much cool riffle added throughout the whole song, it's crazy good. And of course I have yet to find it anywhere
Randy would Improvise pretty much every solo and and add more.. as the tours got further in he would do it more so to keep from getting bored with playing the same thing all the time.. His solos are extremly difficult to begin with and then improvising them as he went is just mind blowing.. He was and always will be the best in my book. Sad he met such a tragic end at such a young age. There will never be another.
Every time I see RR playing live it's something I have to want to see more, damn he was so good and that crap about him and EVH not being friends or whatever was because they were never around each other long enough to be friends. Randy was a totally different player, he was getting better really fast.
I think that rivalry started on the Sunset strip. Both played at the same clubs and were known as the two best young guitarist on the strip in the 70's.
His playing on Revelation is insane. I've heard him play so many times and I always come away in awe of what he did. We only had him for a short period of time, but he left us a lot of greatness.
I agree- Crowley's two solos and Revelation are RR's best solos. I would add in SATO. How he blended those scales with that tone is so vastly under-appreciated.
It's usually the top selling singles that get all the attention like "Crazy Train" or "Flying High Again". I am suggesting songs like SATO have stellar solos but not as big of a hit commercially. @@boethius1812
@@freebee8221Ozzy was "passed out drunk under the drum risers" for most of the recording of the 2 Randy albums crying himself to sleep over his girlfriend breaking his heart. Sharon had to hide his alcohol to force him to get his ass up & even sing his lines.
i saw ozzy and him play music mountain in upstate ny in the summer '81. i was 15. that children of the grave solo still gives me chills and i haven't heard it in >30 years. thanks for this.
It's those short bits like 2:50-3:00 that just let you know that he's thinking on a whole different level than the contemporaries. That and the finale of the Crazy Train solo are freakish.
Seen him live at Atlanta Georgia in the old 0mni with his poke ah dotted flying V and he was and still is in my opinion one of the top 5 best guitarist of all time!!!

Sad to say I forgot about these masterpieces. Was a wee lad when I first heard him. First records I ever bought, and first guitarist I ever really "listened" too. Randy broke the mold

Epic footage of the all time wizard of Oz casting his melodic spells upon us with his 6 string polka dotted magic wand - Thank you for posting this would love to see the entire performances of these clips RIP RR!
It's more agressive. Tony has a relatively clean sound on the album in general that album has a bit less gain than Paranoid. But with Randy it sounds like the amps are about to explode.
Randy Rose and Jimi Hendrix, the two best guitarists of all times. I’m glad I got to see both of them. I guess I’m dating myself sometimes it pays to be old. Love you Randy ! See you soon. Love, Guy. 4:19
I started playing guitar the year after Randy was killed.. so almost 40 years Ive been playing.. Randy is my biggest influence of all... I thought I had seen all the videos of him released to date but I have never seen these videos of him.. Where did you find them and is there more of the close up shots as seen here? As far as solos for me that was life changing,, Crazy train, Flying high again, Revelation mother earth, you cant kill rock n roll, steal away,,,,,,,, Well shit,,, ALL of them... everything he ever wrote,, he was a genius... So many call Eddie the greatest,, huge feud for years back in the day of who was greater,,, Although I love them both,,,, Randy's classical mixed with heavy metal spoke to me more than Eddie's kind of 30's swing meets metal style and when you compare song for song the albums while Randy was alive,,,, I love every song on those albums where its I do not on VH,, i skip songs on VH albums... Anyway,, great to see those videos.
the run he puts in the Revelation solo sounds like it goes on forever on an endless fretboard, amazing. The way he translated the Steal Away the Night solo to capture the triple tracking of certain parts in the studio
So effortless the way his fingers moved up and down the strings. No question that Randy was Ozzy's greatest guitarist, but I always said that Jake E. Lee deserves a lot of accolades as well. He stepped in and kept Ozzy going when Ozzy could have stopped altogether after losing Randy. Jake was a different musician than Randy but you can't deny that some of Ozzy's best work was recorded with Jake. Randy saved Ozzy after Sabbath but Jake also saved Ozzy after Randy.
@@Thunder_Lightning_and_Fury Brad Gillis wasn't really a heavier guitarist for Ozzy's brand of music. Night Ranger was more of a pop rock band and that was Brad's style.
@@mjeh1 Ozzy said in interviews that Randy wanted to leave anyway and study classical guitar but Ozzy convinced him to stay to get some money and success under his belt. If Randy didn't die, he may have recorded another album with Ozzy at some point but he was already going in a different direction. Plus, Randy and Sharon had "relations" one drunken night together so that would have put tension between Randy and Ozzy. Who knows how it would have worked out.
@@jonw.3886 I agree. He wasn't heavy enough. I've been playing guitar for 44 years. I don't think I would have stepped up after Randy passed away. Jake sure did weather some dark days. He'll always be great.
Great work... that's fun to watch. Hell anything with Randy is fun to watch. But you did a nice job with this one. I love anything with Randy but at the same time it hurts that we don't have a full clear show that we can all have our minds blown from! There's only a few things that are must see for me.. and really anything with Randy or about him is one of those few things. Thank you
Seen him many times at the Starwood with Q.R. I played well back then as did a friend if mine that was there often. Picking & fingerwork was like watching a pro funny car on a fingerboard. Straight badass. First guy I saw pinch strings for harmonics & 1st to bend a les paul for trem. Always a cream les paul custom with ebony fingerboard. A solid heavy guitar & he made it work hard. I don't know if there is good film of his finger work but if there is it would definitely be worth finding. God bless him.
I will never forget that night in Passaic, NJ at the Capitol Theater, with Lemmy opening up for Ozzy and the Blizzard! A night that I will treasure until I can catch a hug from Randy up above...I will always miss you brother!!!😞 R.I.P.🤟🙏💜💜💜
Crazy he is suspended in time at 26 years old. I'm 52 now and still look at him like I did when I was 12-13 years old. Life and time is so weird. To this day Ozzy Randy Tribute is still my iPhone background pic.
I dunno how he can play so fast and what seems like forever without slowing down. My hands would cramp up trying to play like him. But he's a genius and a natural who worked very hard to learn how to play the right way. He's definitely one of my all time favorite guitarists
I love Randy’s solos. Crazy how he does the solos for the Black Sabbath songs, knowing he doesn’t like playing them. Sounds amazing. R.I.P Randy Rhoads 👍🎸❤️
It's where a lot of his solo techniques originate from though. He was an ego filled guitar maniac driven by Marlboro and cocaine, I have a copy of his autopsy death report. He denied even listening to Sabbath as well, his inferiority complex shined through there when logically accomplished guitarists could see right through his bs...listen closely and you'll hear his cocaine speed sloppy playing throughout...he would be ashamed listening back hearing all of his mistakes and into action problems inherently associated with playing aggressively on light strings which cocaine does to you. He was most likely assassinated by the pilot because he was quitting the band after winning an award for guitar player which is the last thing he should have been thinking. Ozzy punched him in the face, word got back to Sharon and her daddy record producer president of the label...they weren't about to let this affect the bands future financially. You research and connect the dots, I know it's crazy but once you know how Aerosmith and others have acted and got away with murder then you may understand and believe it.
Oh…so we are to believe that Ozzy wanted to assassinate his business partner? Ahhh…no. I don’t buy that for a second. The bus driver was doing blow all night before the flight and he was to say the least, an impaired operator. Simple as that
I think the whole Tribute Album is life changing. It's crazy that arguably the two most epic solos on that album are during Paranoid and Children of the Grave, which are Black Sabbath songs.
@@caseyrichmond6511 I remember when I first heard that solo and I was in complete awe. It came out of nowhere and I couldn't process what I was hearing, so I had to replay it over and over. It still gives me chills to this day.
So cool, seeing live Randy videos is like seeing a Bigfoot video
Not the truck right??
There's not too many videos of him. Every know and then, someone will post a clip of a blurry Randy Rhoads, ducking into a heavily wooded area and disappearing.

Imagine how many more fantastic solos he could have made if he didn’t get into that plane

Behind him he knew that .. Randy made the Ozzy we know today just facts
@@tiffanyroseangeles34 That sounds opportunistic to me as well.........
that's why he let him died
Randy was his best friend & saved his career. If you read Ozzy's autobiography, he really shows his love for Randy.
Rest in Peace Randy !!!!!!!

As far as solos for me that was life changing,, Crazy train, Flying high again, Revelation mother earth, you cant kill rock n roll, steal away,,,,,,,, Well shit,,, ALL of them... everything he ever wrote,, he was a genius... So many call Eddie the greatest,, huge feud for years back in the day of who was greater,,, Although I love them both,,,, Randy's classical mixed with heavy metal spoke to me more than Eddie's kind of 30's swing meets metal style and when you compare song for song the albums while Randy was alive,,,, I love every song on those albums where its I do not on VH,, i skip songs on VH albums...
Anyway,, great to see those videos.
the run he puts in the Revelation solo sounds like it goes on forever on an endless fretboard, amazing.
The way he translated the Steal Away the Night solo to capture the triple tracking of certain parts in the studio
So effortless the way his fingers moved up and down the strings. No question that Randy was Ozzy's greatest guitarist, but I always said that Jake E. Lee deserves a lot of accolades as well. He stepped in and kept Ozzy going when Ozzy could have stopped altogether after losing Randy. Jake was a different musician than Randy but you can't deny that some of Ozzy's best work was recorded with Jake. Randy saved Ozzy after Sabbath but Jake also saved Ozzy after Randy.
And they totally screwed him over. I wonder if they would have done Randy so dirty.
Brad Gillis gave it a shot too. Not for long though.
@@Thunder_Lightning_and_Fury Brad Gillis wasn't really a heavier guitarist for Ozzy's brand of music. Night Ranger was more of a pop rock band and that was Brad's style.
@@mjeh1 Ozzy said in interviews that Randy wanted to leave anyway and study classical guitar but Ozzy convinced him to stay to get some money and success under his belt. If Randy didn't die, he may have recorded another album with Ozzy at some point but he was already going in a different direction. Plus, Randy and Sharon had "relations" one drunken night together so that would have put tension between Randy and Ozzy. Who knows how it would have worked out.
@@jonw.3886 I agree. He wasn't heavy enough. I've been playing guitar for 44 years. I don't think I would have stepped up after Randy passed away. Jake sure did weather some dark days. He'll always be great.
I literally remember guitar hero world tour I loved playing mr Crowley over and over and over
Great work... that's fun to watch. Hell anything with Randy is fun to watch. But you did a nice job with this one. I love anything with Randy but at the same time it hurts that we don't have a full clear show that we can all have our minds blown from! There's only a few things that are must see for me.. and really anything with Randy or about him is one of those few things. Thank you
Seen him many times at the Starwood with Q.R. I played well back then as did a friend if mine that was there often. Picking & fingerwork was like watching a pro funny car on a fingerboard. Straight badass. First guy I saw pinch strings for harmonics & 1st to bend a les paul for trem. Always a cream les paul custom with ebony fingerboard. A solid heavy guitar & he made it work hard. I don't know if there is good film of his finger work but if there is it would definitely be worth finding. God bless him.
I will never forget that night in Passaic, NJ at the Capitol Theater, with Lemmy opening up for Ozzy and the Blizzard! A night that I will treasure until I can catch a hug from Randy up above...I will always miss you brother!!!😞 R.I.P.🤟🙏💜💜💜
Crazy he is suspended in time at 26 years old. I'm 52 now and still look at him like I did when I was 12-13 years old. Life and time is so weird. To this day Ozzy Randy Tribute is still my iPhone background pic.
Very happy that I got to see him live even though the roadie drove the set to a different arena! No stage set, just a no frills banger.
If he never died, he would have been one of the top 3 guitarists of all time.
I dunno how he can play so fast and what seems like forever without slowing down. My hands would cramp up trying to play like him. But he's a genius and a natural who worked very hard to learn how to play the right way. He's definitely one of my all time favorite guitarists
Tonight, from DOAM, has not 1 but 2 of his best guitar solos!
I love Randy’s solos. Crazy how he does the solos for the Black Sabbath songs, knowing he doesn’t like playing them. Sounds amazing. R.I.P Randy Rhoads 👍🎸❤️
It's where a lot of his solo techniques originate from though. He was an ego filled guitar maniac driven by Marlboro and cocaine, I have a copy of his autopsy death report. He denied even listening to Sabbath as well, his inferiority complex shined through there when logically accomplished guitarists could see right through his bs...listen closely and you'll hear his cocaine speed sloppy playing throughout...he would be ashamed listening back hearing all of his mistakes and into action problems inherently associated with playing aggressively on light strings which cocaine does to you. He was most likely assassinated by the pilot because he was quitting the band after winning an award for guitar player which is the last thing he should have been thinking. Ozzy punched him in the face, word got back to Sharon and her daddy record producer president of the label...they weren't about to let this affect the bands future financially. You research and connect the dots, I know it's crazy but once you know how Aerosmith and others have acted and got away with murder then you may understand and believe it.
@@marklane870do say more, I’ve always felt he was killed
@@OscarMartinez-mv9wlI have no more, you research and lmk!
Oh…so we are to believe that Ozzy wanted to assassinate his business partner? Ahhh…no. I don’t buy that for a second. The bus driver was doing blow all night before the flight and he was to say the least, an impaired operator. Simple as that
@@marcusupshaw829not Ozzy but the business mafia side of the band, you know...just research mafia and music , huge rabbit 🐰 hole
I was so fortunate to have been given goosebumps seeing this incredible band LIVE during the Blizzard of Oz. I will never forget that feeling. 🙏🫶🏻✌️👍🏼
Saw Blizzard of Oz in Asbury Park, Convention Hall, NJ!!!🤘🔥💯😎
I still remember we were all amazed by him when he came out & all these years later we’re even more amazed.
Gifted beyond measures.
Wow. Awesome. I've never seen that footage other than the AHs vid. Such a great guitarist. RIP RR.
Awesome video! Thank you, thank you for taking the time to put it together.
One of the best of all time. Love that guy !! Wish they had included the solo for Goodbye to Romance. That's my favorite.
Man. I've heard all these songs so many times, but I'm crying. Life is so chaotic and unfair.
Fly high with the angels dear Randy❤️💕🌹 You are greatly missed!!!! I was always a huge fan of yours!!
I'm missing him so much...
It’s 2022. Just found this of Randy. A true genuine guitar hero. LONG LIVE RANDY RHOADS. ❤️🤘
RIP Randy! He was a beast
Thank you so much for this! I had goosebumps on my arms and legs throughout the whole video. 😊💝
The reason why he's finally going into the rock n roll hall of fame by himself! He was the fucking best period !
Was nice to watch...thank you..and to listen ! What talent!
I think the whole Tribute Album is life changing. It's crazy that arguably the two most epic solos on that album are during Paranoid and Children of the Grave, which are Black Sabbath songs.
Children of the grave on tribute is one of his best solos
The paranoid one always gets me, he does shit in that solo I've never heard anyone else do.
@@caseyrichmond6511 I remember when I first heard that solo and I was in complete awe. It came out of nowhere and I couldn't process what I was hearing, so I had to replay it over and over. It still gives me chills to this day.
