Ultimate Rhoads

So yeah - as someone over at YouTube said, the first 49 seconds are the outro solo with some pretty good isolation of only the guitar...but then it repeats at that mark. Nothing new to see or hear folks. But the isolation of his playing so that it sounds very clear and up in the mix is an improvement.

That is a totally logical and reasonable explanation of the accident. It totally makes sense with what has been described as Randy in the back seat seemingly trying to help Rachel, who had fallen forward. Unfortunately, there are a lot of crazy folks out there that want to believe the worst or float...

Yup, except the Runes around the front picture would probably have said something else, besides: "Randy Rhoads, Axeman...etc."

I wouldn't doubt that there is an instrumental recording somewhere of pre "Diary" tour rehearsals so the band could see what worked and what didn't musically. My guess is that Tommy would be the person that might have anything matching that description. That way, Ozzy would have a musical ...

I wonder if these random notes were done by Bob Daisley? They rhyme pretty good and are somewhat witty, and seem to be the kind of thing that Bob might have scribbled down while waiting for Assistant Producer "Peetie". Anyhow, that is my guess - that these writings are Bob's.

Thank you for posting. I guess no one stops by here that often. I *just* remembered my password to be able to log back in here. The best part of this video was that the host was not a fan and did a pretty unbiased report of the facts that he could find out. He added some technical knowledge regardin...

There are a lot of pictures surfacing on FaceBook and elsewhere that I have never seen before. It almost feels like people are rediscovering, "Oh yeah - I went to that Ozzy show back in '81 or '82 and took pictures of that amazing guitarist...so, I guess I'll post them!"

That is amazing, and was a real labor of love. Kudos to you for taking the time to do it well and do it right! Total respect and love from me here...and I bet you could put one or two of these together for a small profit from some of the die-hards on here that would put them over the moon.

I honestly think, what is so bad about the truth? Ozzy was brilliant enough to surround himself with world class players that gave us the first two albums - including that he could take credit for "discovering" Randy Rhoads (or at least giving him a platform large enough so that others cou...

Very Cool, Astral Plane! Thank you. Those pictures from Providence are amazing. I'm surprised that someone hasn't properly packaged those with the "A" grade audio floating around from that show aka "Howling Blizzard". I've read all the books out there...Rudy's, Bob's, and others ...

Seriously...No one on this board (or who is left) saw any of these shows? We have audio of 5/4 (Springfield) and 8/7 (Providence), but I'd LOVE to have an idea of what I missed, particularly on 5/1 (Boston) and 8/9 (Cape Cod). I'll pay ca$h for a boot or two! Ha, ha. Maybe even a bit more for video...

Yeah, I think most of the emails that got leaked to the press were derogatory remarks made about certain actors or producers...gossip-type stuff that dressed down some of them. I wouldn't expect to find any emails related to Ozzy, Randy, or live tapes. But if files were located and/or downloaded, th...

Maybe somewhere down the line, something will leak out? Someone should reach out to the hackers and have them look for this stuff.

Yes, you beat me by a month, although I'm sure I lurked in the shadows as a "guest" for a long time!

With Randy's Rock and Roll Music Hall of Fame induction in October 2021, and the 40th anniversary of his passing this March 2022, there was momentum and buzz around his name again. There seemed to be a lot out there...on the internet, in print magazines, online interviews - and the original owner of...

I was thinking the other day...Sony was hacked in 2014 by "Guardians of the Peace", and some film footage and controversial emails were made public. Supposedly, the hacks originated from North Korea in response to the the impending release of the film, "The Interview". I also bel...
