I mentioned this in another thread and i would appreciate it if you guys could help out. I'm looking for photos/pics of Randy and his guitar picks. I've seen a few but it's just hunting them out. I have a few but i'd like to see some more from his Ozzy days .This is one from the Heavy Metal Holocaust Port Vale 1981



Thanks to TK for these.

Special thanks to Frank for putting the thread up at TK and supplying one of his photos Cheers

Great work.

Killer pic Shaun! (from HMH '81)
Do I see blue, white and brown Fender Mediums there?

Look at the third photo down, on the mike stand you can see the very last pick towards the bottom looks almost shiny, grey, and has extra thickness.
My first thought when I looked at it was is that a stone pick. It looks like it has bevelled angles thinning out at the edge. The thing is no one has ever said that he used one nor did Randy...but what if someone gave him one to try out, just speculation. It is petty but I wonder what that pick is...if it is a stone pick it could just as much chance being a genuine tortoiseshell pick. Or it could just be a regular Jim Dunlop grey...who knows?!?!?!

Hey this is not the same subject but can anyone tell me why there are photos like he is singing at the mike stand. I did not thinkthat Randy sang back up.

in quiet riot he did. in ozzy he didnt.

What a beautiful pic! My favorite for this moment.

My favorite picks are fender mediums in the same color! SWEET!!!! I didn't know he used them when I bought them.

What's the story behind the picture stating Halorising picks from the Zeus Amp? Are those actual Randy used picks?

They are what was in the practice amp case when Halo bought the amp from the guy. I have questioned how they never disappeared or why the seller didn't sell them separately. But from the mix of types i think a couple of Rudy Sarzo's may be in there. I don't know if he ever used a pick ?. But they are vintage picks and from the time 1970's - 1980's.
