In this edition of #thedailydoug, I'm listening to Ozzy Osbourne as a solo artist for only the second time. It was amazing to watch Ozzy, Randy, Bob, Don, and Lee do their thing. I was especially taken with Randy's guitar playing. Come rock out to some classic Ozzy with me!

Not only was Randy a phenomenal guitar player but also a very intelligent and kind human being. RIP Randy Rhoads.
thanks
His family is still trying to get money owed by Sharon.
was Randy also a teacher of guitar
@@MrKennyanders yes
@@TheMoneypresident Don't even mention that horrible woman.
The smile on Ozzy’s face as he watches Randy playing is priceless
I like to think that Ozzy's thoughts were: "Man, what amazing fuck band I have and I'm the worst member of that."
😂😂😂😂
They were besties.
Pure talent... 100% unmatchable!
"That sounds good!"
and
"Let's mmake a lot of money!"
at the same time.
🤣🤣🤣
You can see the admiration Ozzy had for him even in this video, as if it was the first time he had heard him play.
I love the ending, where Ozzy is just looking at Randy and Tommy (Aldridge, the drummer) with this big grin, as if he's thinking, "Eat your heart out Black Sabbath, I got myself a great band here".
@@acfiv1421yep. No disrespect to Tony Iommi, but I always imagine him shitting himself when he first heard Blizzard of Ozz😂
Randy is absolutely one of the greatest guitar players to ever walk the earth. So sad we only got to hear his talents for such a short time.
We got gypped. He had much more to offer
It's not even the usual "well he was an idiot and used drugs; we know what'll happen there" state... he rarely even drank an occasional beer. He died in a prop plane crash. Complete cosmic accident.
I seen him in 1982 Feb Diary of a Madman my Very 1st Concert ever seen 4000+ concerts big and small mostly heavy metal and It's like that song IT Feels like the 1st time which No guitarist afterwards was even in the same Classically Talented Stratosphere as RR.
@@TaRAAASHBAGS same with cliff, in fact, the bus driver was said to be drunk when driving.
AMEN BROTHER.
The bit at the end where Ozzy becomes entranced watching Randy.... says it all - he couldn't believe his luck finding this guy. Randy was a tour de force at the cusp of neo-classical metal... what a player.
I know, imagine what he’d could’ve accomplished had he not died. I’m still in awe every time I hear his solos.
Bassist Bob Daisley wrote the incredible lyrics for the songs on Blizzard of Ozz and Diary of a Madman. Bob and Randy worked on writing and arranging the music. Bob Daisley is one of the most underrated Australian musicians.
Should have been called blizzard of bob
Lee Kerslake also had massive involvement with Diary of a Madman, and even delivered vocal melodies as Ozzy wasn't there during the writing processes of Diary of a Madman and has Bob mentioned in his autobiography was with Sharon most of the time....
And who tf is Rudy Sarzo
The guy who learned Bob Daisley's bass lines.
@@aetherscapes1
Rudy is also a legend!
Randy was that dangerous combo of really knowing the instrument and fully understanding the music
I'm 54 years old.
I remember when this album came out and I've been listening to ever since.
I still get goosebumps. Randy Rules.
EDDIE WHO ?
Your reaction to Saint Rhoads' solo made my day. I remember when this album came out in 1981 and I heard Randy play for the first time. It was the same reaction that I had when I first heard Eddie Van Halen play1978. I stood there with my mouth hanging open and my jaw on the floor. Sure there have been plenty of "Guitar Gods" prior to Randy. But this dude just hit it out of the park. It was devastating when he passed in 1982. RIP Saint Rhoads. Thanks for doing this song Doug.
Yeah man this album blew me away when it hit. I remember the Rave that this was the singer from Sabbath doing his own thing. And the 2nd album was just ad great. Did many of bong hits to those hits in my high-school days. OZZY ROCKS
Neither Eddie or Randy were better than one another, Just different on the same plane of existence... I consider them equals.
Did you see him live back in the day ?
@@fendergibs no in 83 I would have been 14. I do remember Ozzy coming to Cleveland and that would have been with Randy. And it was a big deal. Heard that it was a good show and the theatrics were great for that day. Cleveland had WMMS 101 FM and as far as radio stations they were it. They kept common folks like me up to date on the world of music. I remember vividly the day they announced that Randy died in a plane crash. They said Ozzy survived even though the plane crashed into the tour bus. (Try and figure that out when that's all you know) but I started a few years before collecting news articles of such. What started me was John Bonhams death. I started acquiring a lot of articles then in the mid 80s hit a dry spell because for me there wasn't anymore good music being recorded. I'm not even sure if I have that book still.
@@fendergibs Nope. I was in high school when Oz released both of those albums featuring Saint Rhoads. By the time I was "old enough" to go to concerts he had passed. Still one of the people I regret not ever seeing.
That bass player is Rudy Sarzo. If he stole you're pajamas, you ain't gettin' em back.
This wasn't Bob Daisley and Lee Kerslake. It's Tommy Aldridge on Drums and Rudy Sarzo on bass.
Beat me to it.
I read somewhere both were very new to the band, thus the sloppy performance. I think Doug would do better to hear the studio version, although it's always good to watch Randy, as rare as it is
@@joex9865 Or he could listen to the Southampton 1980 soundboard gig featuring both Lee Kerslake and Bob Daisley, which easily puts this gig to shame.
Randy's mother was a classical teacher....he definitely brought that element to OZZY but it was Randy and Bob ( Daisley) who really shaped these songs...
Now let's see your impression about the phenomenon and legendary Randy Rhoads and why in such a short life he forever marked the history of guitar and music in general.
Insane performance and despite me hearing it for probably the 500th time, eyes tearing up yet again as I'm overcome with emotions over how gifted Randy was and how very early we lost him.
What Randy did on this one song in some obscure cable tv station in front of maybe 12 people...the phrasing, emotion, composition...technically, all other guitarists, Page, EVH, Henrix etc never did in over 50 years of them playing. The guy was the best ever, hands down.
Can we talk about how incredible Rudy Sarzo's bass sounds on this??? His tone, his presence in the mix, his playing with all the running fills & varied chuggy rhythms driving the pacing of everything else by his changes in sustain lengths & spaces between notes!
Rudy Sarzo did not play bass on this
@@gollum404 LOL, did you even watch? That most certainly is Rudy on bass...unmistakable.
@@gollum404yeah that’s him
@@jeffreyboyer3714 Bob Daisley played bass on this song
@gollum404 Bob played in the studio version. The guy that toured with Ozzy and played all these songs live was Rudy Sarzo and thats the guy you are seeing in this footage, the one and only Rudy Sarzo. Even though the studio recordings were not recorded by him, Rudy was an extremely great bass player I even picked up a bass because of him.
Also, Tommy Aldridge is the guy playing the drums here which did not record in the studio tracks but was the guy hired for the tour. Ozzy had the best of the best in studio and on the road back in 1980-1982.
Wow! It’s so crazy to me that Doug hasn’t done this song yet
Right??
Well, now he did.
Your joy the moment you realize that the solo of Randy is on a descending circle of fifths, is delightful!
Unfortunately there are some cons out there pretending to be you, promising prizes.
This was all Randy’s influence. The man was so innovative and no one played like Randy. To me he was the greatest guitarist of that era. His influence has only gotten greater with time and will continue for years to come.
Richie Faulkner who replaced KK Downing in JP has slowly evolved into channeling Randy all the time. There's a great live performance where he does a 5 minute solo on a Les Paul. I almost felt Randy's presence. Phrasing, note choice etc... he doesn't play like him, very different style but I can hear Randy all over his playing.
This was filmed later when Sharon had convinced Ozzy to kick Lee Kerslake out as they wanted Tommy Aldridge. Bob wasn’t happy and consequently left or was kicked out too. Bobs book ‘For Facts Sake’ is a great read that tells about his contribution to Ozzys career and the credit he and Lee didn’t receive as well as insights into Randy’s life.
Reading Bob's book and Rudy Sarzo's book together gives an interesting and consistent picture of what Randys time on the road with Ozzy was like. Between Sharon's rose colored rewriting of Ozzys past behavior and Randys younger fans turning him into a 2D saint, it is harder over time to keep Randy a real human being.
Been meaning to read that!! God, I despise that shrill-voiced hag.
Sharon has sacrificed a few musical souls for the benefit of the dark prince.
@@donaldwrissler9059 while i think you are 100% correct, he was still only 25 and a hell of a musician. the tragedy of his death is enough to warrant the singing of his glories, in my opinion. my eldest is a few years younger than randy was. i can't even imagine what must have been like for his family, if it hurt that bad for the fans. so i say let them praise him as they please :P hope i was clear, i'm a few beers in
@@youruncleted I understand what you mean, even even after a few . My point was that turning Randy into a religious icon does him and his fans(incl Family) a disservice. If he was greater than human; then his work didn't come from craft and hard work, but just the random choices of fate. Randy's love of teaching and desire to learn; as seen by the huge change from QR1/QRII to Blizzard./Diary, makes his journey so compelling and tragic.
Ozzy's just looking at his band finishing the song like he's a spectator, marveling at how great a band he has behind him. Randy was a musical genius, but the rest of the band is so rock solid too! I don't think we'll ever witness anything like this again. Great pick, even if Ozzy's not singing at his best at this performance. Maybe a cold. Maybe too much alcohol and drugs. But I treasure the performance regardless. I started playing guitar after I heard Ace Frehley from KISS, and then Randy came along and blew my mind! In my view he's still the best guitar player in the world.
Just watched an interview with Tommy Aldridge, and he said the reason this is so slow is that Ozzy sang the opening line of the song slowly, so Tommy just followed his lead.
I think it was effective at this tempo though. They must have liked it too, or else they would likely have done another take?
@Guitar Channel Yea, I think it's fine. I saw another reaction to it, and some were commenting on the speed; then I just happened to catch TA talking about it in an interview, so....the more you know. 👍
I remember seeing Ozzy live in 2003, and something that impressed me about his band at the time (Zakk Wylde, Jason Newsted, Mike Bordin, Michael St. Claire) was how they would smoothly and often in the middle of lines change tempo to match Ozzy's vocals (which at the time were erratic; he was much better before and after). They all knew precisely how the vocal lines fell on every single beat, and they just made sure that they did, regardless of the spacing Ozzy had. It was a masterclass in supporting a singer as a backing band.
Tommy and Rudy Sarzo, one of the best drummer - bass duo of all time.
I remember Rudolf Schenker from Scorpions saying that it was seen as very cool at the time to play songs slow and controlled.
Tommy Aldridge is such a badass drummer... 😎 ..one of the best classic metal line-ups EVER!
Well said!
Tommy is my all-time favorite drummer.
Master and pioneer of the double bass setup.
It's been 35 years since I first heard Randy Rhoads, and I'm still blown away by his musicianship. Absolutely phenomenal.
One of the most incredible solos of all time. Randy was an absolute genius.
The way you smiled while Randy is playing says everything you need to know. One of the great losses in music, my goodness what he could have done.
Watch Ozzy as Randy was playing the solo, as I imagine Ozzy was mesmerized by Randy's unbelievable talent.
Yes, he sure WAS!🎉
He really LOVED Randy, what a truly gifted musician!! 🎸❤
“Long live Randy Rhoads”!!!!
He was a pioneer of neoclassical metal, my favorite…
Randy has been my favorite guitarist since I first heard him in early '1982. Daisley wrote the lyrics, Ozzy came up with the vocal melody.
What a great band Ozzy had back in the day, pure talent
I treasure all of Randy's repertoire and to hear you depict Mr. Crowley was truly a delight to witness. Few musicians can make their instrument sing with such a celestial elegance of power and grace that Randy had just started to tap into upon his tragic departure. You'll find that his compositions and melodies crafted and developed are a gift to mankind. I humbly request that at some point you listen to "Revelations Mother Earth." It was a joy watching this reaction video from you, Thank you Doug, Thank you!
I concur completely.
Thank you so much for talking about Randy on your channel. He was a beautiful person, amazing musician, and just one of the best people you'll ever hear about. He left a mark on so many people through his life.
Randy taught classical guitar at his mom's music school when he was a teenager.
And Tommy Aldridge (drummer) looks exactly the same today as he does in this video.
Rudy Sarzo looks the same too!
Randy was a rock guitar player first and only later took up an interest in classical guitar. I don't think he taught classical guitar at Musonia.
@@slimwthatiltedbrim2733 it was common knowledge amongst my friends back on high school that Randy was teaching classical guitar at age 16 in his mom's school. That might be incorrect, so let me know if there is proof otherwise.
@@jomojojo6603 Yes, of course we know he taught at Musonia and had an interest in classical guitar. I'm simply not aware of him teaching classical guitar. In all the things I've read, heard and watched about Randy I don't think I've ever come across anything saying he taught classical guitar.
You are asking me to prove he didn't do something. It would be easier to prove something he actually did, so if he did actually give classical guitar lessons that info should be available. And if it is I have no problem acknowledging my error.
@@slimwthatiltedbrim2733 fair enough. Personally, I think that hos fingernail on his pinky is proof that he had more than just an interest in classical guitar. (Yes, that was tongue in cheek)
I have a deep reverence for Randy's gift. The mere fact that he was always learning and wanting to better his craft speaks volumes taking lessons giving lessons such a big person in a time of big ego's he never claimed to be the best
Randy was classically trained from the time he was old enough to read. He had actually been planning on quitting rock/metal and going back to studying to become a professor of classical music. He was devoted to the music before anything else. There's a corroborated story that he would sit in hotel rooms or the bus playing guitar all night to the point Rudy Sarzo (who knew his mother) had to call his mother to tell Randy to put the guitar down and go to sleep.
taking lessons after shows
That intro gives me goosebumps still to this day, I can't think of any better intro ever made.
I'm self taught: playing/ theory/ reading. And I am old enough to have been into my 10th year of playing when Mr. Crowley came out. This song was what transformed the circle of fifths from theory into practical reality for me. It was another door opened up into the next step of my journey. Virtually everything Randy played was a master class in some form or another. We can only imagine where his own journey would have taken both he and us had he not died so tragically at such a young age.We know he wanted to explore classical guitar and other genres more from what those who knew him have said. Such a loss, yet such an incredible legacy of music he gave us in such a short space of time.
Just the mention of Randy Rhoads brings a tear to eyes. He was absolutely phenomenal and one of the biggest inspirations as to why I picked up a guitar even though he died 6 years before I was even born. Ironically, I'm also a pilot now and whenever a Randy song comes on during my drive to the airport I just think, "fuck...I hope I don't clip a bus and tumble into a house..." Long live Randy Rhoads
There are not many videos, sadly, of Oz and Rhoads. You can tell OZZY's amazement watching Rhandy playing. Still hard to believe they only did 2 albums together. For me, as a player, seems like there is so much more. Why? Because every song RR did on those 2 records are greatness.
Randy changed how I felt and approached it guitar. I have spent over 20 years studying his style and music after learning as a teenager that he had started his Venture into being classically-trained. His solos themselves were like their own little song... if he were alive today I seriously think that you would have overshadowed some of the greatest players including evh, he wrote so many beautiful compositions in such a short time... A true musician and Gem.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
One of the greatest guitarists ever. It was such a shame how he died. It was so easily preventable. Fly High, Randy. ❤️
Tommy Aldridge on drums. Rudy Sarzo on bass. Legendary line-up. Randy... gone way too soon.
ha ha I think Rudy was just trying to stay out of Randy's way
Bob Daisley on bass on the album, Lee on drums.
@@joedecker3900 They were the better musical pairing !!!!
@@joedecker3900 Yes.
The outtro solo still gives me goosebumps every time. Could I recommend "Revelation Mother Earth"? Beautiful classically influenced guitar work.
I don't know how you could possibly be over 40 years old and not have heard this song.
I was lucky enough to see the Diary of a Madman tour before Randy died. It was a stripped down stage set, as some of the tour's trucks had gotten stuck crossing the Rockies in a January storm. The show went on, and the lack of the stage theatrics did not diminish the performance at all. Incredible performance by all the members, followed by the incredible shock hearing of Randy's death only months later. Gone too soon!
F.Y.I., the drummer for that live performance was Tommy Aldridge and the bassist was Rudy Sarzo. Tommy had played with Black Oak Arkansas and Pat Travers Band before joining Ozzy. Rudy had played with Quiet Riot prior to Ozzy and would rejoin them after leaving Ozzy.
When I hear Randy Rhoads play I cannot say anything other than his play evokes amazing emotion within myself and my heart. I sometimes tear up because he would not just play notes... it seems like he is playing from his heart to reach and emote his inner feelings. Amazing guitarist, classically and anything he wished to become amazing at. He seemed to have been a prodigy until his untimely death at age 25. I will forever thank Randy (along with Oz, Daisley, Sarzo, etc.) for the music they released which saved me many times from thinking of doing what wouldn't be able to be undone.
I'm 51 and grew up on Ozzy. The 1st time I heard Blizzard of Ozz, Randy instantly became my favorite musician. Diary of A Madman is in my top 5 favorite albums. I wish the world could have continued to watch Randy grow as a musician. 🤘🤘
One of the greatest to ever do it.
Who knows how far Randy would have gone in the guitar world had he not passed so young.
He was ahead of his time, and definitely one of the biggest influences to today's hard rock and metal guitar players.
Rip Randy Rhoads he is truly goated and has really impacted my life in a way. Thank you Randy!
I get chillbumps whenever I hear RR play this song
You can easily see in this video that Mr. Helvetian’s is extremely gifted. He must have perfect pitch (or at least relative pitch), and picks up on keys in an instant. I would love to be able to recognize pitch and chords the way he does. It’s amazing to see someone pick apart songs so quickly and with no instrument for aid. Thanks, Doug, for making these videos.
7:40 probably the reason why I’m stuck with this track in the first place. Hardly heard anything else classically haunting yet captivating like that.
Ozzy has a knack of getting on board incredible musicians. Daisley wrote ironic lyrics (so any occult accusations are absolutely untrue), Don and Randy composed outstanding music. So, Ozzy looks like a mere vocalist performer and a project leader here among such creative people. And how lucky they were to get Jake E. Lee who was able to play Randy’s solos not by note and even elaborate when it was room for it, like in Suicide solution.
Bob and Randy were the songwriters, yes Don did the intro......
I mean playing someone's stuff note for note should be expected from a professional musician no? Jake did a great job. Jake did mess up some of Randy's stuff, not tapping with the pick on I don't know goes against the solo
Not to mention Brad Gillis for a brief time.
As perfect of a rock lineup as can be. Magnificent.
My favorite Ozzy song.... i love when music experts give me new appreciation to my favorite music
My first concert was Ozzy in April of 1982. It was the 10th show after he returned to the road after Randy's death. Brad Gilles (from the band Nightranger) filled in for that show. It was a sad day when we lost Randy. RIP
*in this live version we have rudy sarzo on bass and tommy aldridge on the drums.
Tommy and Randy just played it out there at the end. Not sure Ozzy knew they were gonna do that.
What wonderful instrumentalists, what a wonderful composition and what a peacock on vocals.
Randy was a real genius guitar player and composer!
Diary, this song and Revelation Mother Earth! Randy shines brightest!
I discovered Metal with Saint Randy Rhoads back in 1981. Still listening to those 2 albums every since every day. I even bought 3 Jackson RR guitars. RIP Saint Randy Rhoads
I'm so glad I saw him play live. It was an amazing experience
Crowley, rhymes with holy. Very worthwhile listen, both to the musical performance and a good breakdown into the chord progressions. No doubt left: Ozzy could sing, and Randy could play ... exceptionally well. Admire their talents.
Thank you- I didn’t want to say it, for fear of having to hear about how there’s more to this song than to say ‘teaching a new generation to mispronounce Crowley’ 😂
May GOD bless Randy Rhodes. I have heard this thousands of times but those guitar solos always inspire me.
The best guitarist that's been on this earth imo. RIP Randy
Randy was the original Neo Classical Heavy Metal Guitarist
Very tasteful music. Ozzy got lucky for finding Randy and very smart for hiring him. See how he played the whole first solo without looking at the fretboard? LOL. He was amazing.
a lot of luck went into that, Randy did not want to audition, his mom encouraged him.
He did not have gas money, Dana helped him. Ozzy flew back to England to jam with another band and fateful meeting with Bob Daisley changed the fortunes of metal history
My mother referred to Randy as the prettiest man she's ever known.Her and my Aunt use to watch him with his brother in Quiet Riot every weekend they played..He had a thing for my Aunt😂.I was young when he died but will never forget my mom balling her eyes out that day.He was classically trained and his influence really shaped that early Ozzy sound. RIP Randy
I was a freshman in high school when Blizzard of Oz was released. My local FM station played the entire album on the release date. As a Black Sabbath fan, I remember being blown away by the album. Randy Rhoades was so fresh. I wish I got to see Ozzy with Randy. He passed away a few months before I saw Ozzy for the first time. Now I wish Ozzy would retire.
Same here, born in 1967..... love Ozzy, but love Dio too
Randy was a legend. One of the greatest guitar players ever, if not the best. His technique was way ahead of his time and he was also a great songwriter. Rip Randy, you are a legend
Such a powerful performance makes me tear up every time I hear it.
There is video from the same session of I don't know, crazy train & suicide solution I strongly recommend viewing these as well
R.I.P. Randy, a true virtuoso of the axe! Imagine how the world of metal would sound like today if he just hadn't taken that bloody flight!!! 😢😢😢
It's really great to have this documented on video, but the performances captured on the original album track are stellar [with Bob Daisley and Lee Kerslake], and the production by engineer/producer Max Norman is chef-kiss level analog tech greatness.
Randy was a great guy. As mentioned his mother was a music teacher. Randy also taught guitar. He continued giving lessons between tours.
Revelation off this album has some beautiful guitar playing in it from Randy
Im so blessed to have seen Randy do TWO shows in 1night. SIMPLY AMAZING.
Randy rhoads is one of the biggest what ifs in music
Don Airey was also on the last Black Sabbath album with Ozzy - Never Say Die. The track 'Johnny Blade' has another nice keyboard intro, from Airey. So it's likely he and Ozzy remembered that and thought this tune would be best set-up with a keyboard intro also.
Just watched Purple two days ago, at the Monsters Of Rock in Sao Paulo, and Don opened his solo that led into Perfect Strangers with a piece of Mr. Crowley's intro
@@alexandremaireno-ni4ec Awesome! Airey has played keyboards with all those great bands. Ozzy loved his playing.
@@guitarchannel5676 it was! For a moment there I hoped Ian Gillan would go "Mr. Crowley..." How epic would it have been?
The keyboardist in this video is Lindsey Bridgewater I believe, Don Airey wasn’t on the tour with them at this time (but was on tour later for Diary of a Madman)
I was a senior in high school the year this came out. Blasted this on my car stereo along with Black Sabbath Heaven And Hell.
Revelation (Mother Earth) would be a great song from this album to check out from a compositional standpoint.
This formation was the BEST formation Ozzy has ever had in his solo carrer. I love Zakk Wylde as well later on even though nothing can beat Randy. This formation was special, you can see how amazed Ozzy was of his own band at the end, looking everyone and just staring at how amazing they all are.
I just love your background knowledge. I think it's great to hear it in the context as you share and react to the video.
Classy act there not mentioning the specifics of Randy’s death. Really appreciate it.
Ozzy looking back at the drummer and laughing is priceless..
Ozzy wrote the melody only all the licks were mainly Randy’s with Bob Daisley working the licks into a song, all lyrics were by Daisley. This was the way the first 2 albums were written.
Doug , awesome job bro ! I’ve been listening to this track since it was released and I was just a young kid but you some how made it totally interesting in a new way ! I love when you talk music and call out the key changes. Lol. Just an excellent job
The Bassist is Rudy Sarzo also from Quiet Riot when Randy played with them and he told Ozzy about Rudy.
Doug! My man. This is one of my favorite Ozzy solo songs! I'm glad you have made it around to Mr. Crowley.
A young guitarist that wants to learn metal was asking me for advice the other day about what to study, I said classical guitar, I got a puzzled look, I explained that a lot of the great metal guitarists started playing classical. You could hear it in Randy’s playing. By the way you could hear it in the keys intro too.
It's crazy how many videos there are nowadays on RUclips breaking down guitar players and singer's no shortage of this , these song's are played more now than when they came out
Despite who you mentioned was on the album in this video is Rudy Sarzo on bass. He was with Randy in Quiet Riot and then went back to them when he passed and helped make them famous. On drums is Tommy Aldridge who played with Black Oak Arkansas, Pat Travers Band, Ozzy Osbourne, Gary Moore, Whitesnake, Ted Nugent, Thin Lizzy, Vinnie Moore and Yngwie Malmsteen.
Doug, I just want to say that I love your channel and love your intelligent, informed perspective on music I love without sounding in any way pandering, pedantic, or pretentious! You are a fan yourself now, dude! Being a guitar player for 20+ years, "cutting my teeth" on guys like Rhoads, your videos never fail to be insightful and respectful while also being willing to give our honest impression when you feel that the metal needs to be kicked up a musical notch. So thank you, my friend, it is most appreciated. And yes, Randy is one of the greatest guitar players I have ever heard, a true complete package, and from what it sounds like a stand up guy; I wish I could have known him...
Great reaction! I always appreciate your takes on music. I think you would enjoy a short acoustic instrumental Randy recorded as a tribute to his mother called Dee.
Hello Doug! Aqui no Brasil esta fase do Ozzy simplesmente foi o que forjou todos os headbangers... O príncipe das Trevas, como era chamado, nos brindou com 3 dos maiores álbuns de Heavy Metal de todos os tempos!
Até nosso grande compositor aqui do Brasil, Zé Ramalho, fez uma adaptação desta música junto com Robertinho de Recife chamada Mr. OZZY... ouça que é inimaginável uma mistura dessas...
Grande Abraço amigo!
Sim 🗿🍷
When they arrived in new towns In between shows Randy would look up classical guitar teachers and learn as much as he could
I just found your channel. I love your joy from these songs, as I grew up with a lot of them. Randy was one of my biggest early guitar influences, and his playing is just mesmerizing. Also, the keys from this song on the studio version just explode into your headphones.
The bass player stole my pajamas. lol Doug even has jokes. :)
Randy's Mom (Delores Rhoads) was a student of Herbert L Clark.
Clark was first chair coronet for John Philip Sousa.
Randy and his Mom would frequently play classical pieces together.
"Dee" would play piano or flute while young Randy would play guitar.
I would have loved to hear that mother/son collaboration!
Never seen someone get so happy about a descending 5th sequential pattern and I love it
When you get Doug head banging you know it’s really good.
