Ultimate Rhoads

Personally, I don't think there's only one right way a legacy can be continued, or just one correct way for someone to be fan either (and only certain self-appointed gate-keepers have the right to dictate what that will be). Offensive behaviour is often in the eye of the beholder too. To me the most...

Usually, legal agreements tend to be fairly specific about what a person can and cannot do as part of a contractual relationship. This one was NOT specific, in its assigned rights - which is why I chose to not participate in it. Vague would be an understatement. And I agree with your decision RRP! ...

You are still angry and barking at the wrong people. I acknowledged that your photos were not published in the RR book. They don't owe you any money or credits, but you're still shouting. Probably just as well, otherwise he'd have to stand in line with the others whose photographs and material WERE...

Hmm i just noticed in that last pic from day on the green that randy is bending the A string and not the G for that beginning and ending part of crazy train. I am going to have to go listen to this and see what it sounded like now :) Edit: Alright that photo is definitely not Crazy Train as i alway...

All three of those are great, but that first one is ICONIC. It's THE photo I think of when I think of Randy live. Does somebody know if this picture was already 'famous' before the release of the Tribute album, or was it new when the album was released? That photo was somewhat famous before the Tri...

Further proof of just how factionalized the Rhoads legacy camps are, but are people really surprised about this? The family has spent 30 years portraying Randy as a saint, and the Velocity book does a fair bit to show him as just a regular guy with strengths and weaknesses... And then we have some o...

HOLY SMOKES!!!! After prob more than a Year of Login Problems & No Computer...I finally was able to RE-Activate my account (thank god)...I even went as far as creating another account but had problems still due to my browser.....So since my last post Ive moved to California (actually in San Ber...

OK gents (especially Matt), Is this the snazzy classical guitar Randy purchased? We've seen some shots of him from the back practicing on it in El Paso TX Feb '82, but this is the only front shot I have seen. Am I wrong? Do we know any details about this instrument? Don't know anything about the in...

I just re-read that interview with Andrew Klein and suddenly something 'clicked' when I read "New Jersey" ...: Ozzy's concert at The Capitol Theatre in Passaic, New Jersey on April 24th 1981 was professionally shot. Every concert in that theatre from 1973-1984 was pro-shot. It was a 3-cam...

Semi offtopic; I've posted this somewhere else too, but can't Rudy/Tommy be forced to deny knowing of any live footage etc by contract? It would not surprise me with all the other legal stuff that happened. It's possible. It might also have been just an unofficial hint from Sharon of "we don't...

i'm wondering why it would be in b/w , i have house footage of aerosmith from 1979 and it's color why b/w ??? http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/3446/exportjjjk.png Appears to be just the equipment they had at the time. I saw some footage of The Pretenders playing at this venue, about 6 months befo...

I changed the title, because unless there's no evidence but the guys word, its just a rumour. Come on, Jodi let him read her private letter? The guy doesn't even mention that he saw the film himself, so we're supposed to believe what one guy heard from another guy...are we really that pathetic? the...

Thanks Shockwave, .......so those who thought there was pro-shot footage, and did some research on the most likely venues (ie.Passaic) to have been filmed, didn't know what we were talking about I wonder who has the rights to this?

good read. its quite frustrating to read "the photo's don took tell the story of the crash.......will never be made public". I am glad know one will see them but it would be nice to have "closure" about it to stop all the speculation that goes on here. He has hinted at a cause I...

.....don't know that she'd be keen to talk. Why would you think that? (Just curious as to your reasoning) Part of it is that if Andy had the ability to source what Tommy described as a "big freezer bag" of cocaine, you just can't be sure who that guy might've known. With Wanda being as cl...
