This book when it comes out will be vital reading for all Randy fans! this is a man who was with Randy from the first show in the US in 1981 thru to that tragic day in 1982.

I have a lot of respect for Rudy he was a great Bass player and if anybody know the full story it will be him. I heard that he had lots of problems getting it printed and whatever your oppinion of Rudy, all the people who have bitched him will be buying it and picking through it for a new insight into Randy.

I cant wait to get my copy what do you guys think? :D

I, for one, am DYING for this book to come out. Rudy Sarzo has been an absolute favorite of mine since seeing him with Randy during the "Blizzard" tour in 1981. He so totally dominated his side of the stage, playing with an aggresion that made him the perfect live complement to Randy. No.....he did not write the bass lines to those first 2 Ozzy albums.....but he sure as hell brought them to life in a highly stylized and memorable manner! Man!!! Did he ever!!! If you saw them together, I'm sure all would agree.

I've had the pleasure of meeting Rudy on several occasions over the years and each time we spoke only of his time with Randy. He has told me more than once that his time playing with Randy was the absolute highlight of his career, no question. This book should be an excellent glimpse back into those days. I cannot wait.........but I will if I must. I'm sure the wait will be worth it......

Rudy Sarzo is a great guy really!
I have seen him about 2 years ago with Dio. He didnt't seem to age at all, he looked very atletic, his playing and stage act was great! Looked like he could be up there with Randy again right away!
This guy was there with Randy when he was making it big. This is a must read for every RR fan imo.
Can't wait for it either! :twisted:


*btw I hope Kevin Dubrow/Kelly Garni will come up with a book as well. :wink:
