I've found the magazine from this 1981 interview. This is the mag translatiion to English.

After Suicide Solution (with Ozzy on a roll) Ozzy proclaimed with great enthusiasm several Sabbath songs as an encore, Iron Man and Paranoid .
After this concert we talked with Randy Rhoads, Rudy Sarzo and Tommy Aldridge

-Randy, how did you meet Ozzy?
RANDY RHOADS: I met Ozzy in a club in L.A., Ozzy was looking for musicians for his group and we were a perfect match.
-With Quiet Riot you made two LP’s but the group never made It big, why?
RANDY: when we made our first LP we were still young, I was just 17 and at that time the situation for hard rock bands in America was very bad.
-Tell us something about the new LP
RANDY: The title is “Diary of a Madman” and it will be released in October, I can assure you that it’s lots better then the first one
-BOB DAISLEY (bass) and LEE KERSLAKE (drums) are replaced, why?
Randy: after our first tour it appeared that Ozzy and Bob couldn’t agree with each other en Ozzy wasn’t happy with Lee’s support
-And then?
RANDY: then it was the time to search for good replacements, I had the idea of asking Rudy Sarzo, we were in Quiet Riot together and Ozzy requested Tommy Aldridge
RUDY SARZO: It was a close call or I would have went to Angel, Randy’s phone call was right on time.
-During the concert you changed your guitar a lot, was there something wrong?
RANDY: each song needs a different sound so it’s necessary to change guitar, I prefer playing on a Les Paul.

(After this conversation we saw Tommy Aldridge sitting quietly in the corner)

-Why did you leave Pat Travers?
TOMMY: business.
-After a bit of urging Aldridge told us:
I didn’t like it at all musically or financially Travers was very strict. But the real reason I left was manager David Hemmings. He’s an ….. (censored)
Do you know he used to be a roadie with Ozzy? He should have stayed that! Radioactive is the worst LP Travers has ever recorded.
-What did you do after that?
Tommy: I played a blue Monday(?) with Gary Moore and recorded an LP with him but it didn’t turn out to anything.
-What do you expect from the new LP?
Tommy: Although I didn’t play on it , it will be fantastic!See more— with Rudy Sarzo.

Yeah this has been discussed on many threads etc. Apart from that small snippet of Randy talking to Motorhead backstage. I've asked everyone who i know who went to this gig and they all say that no cameras could be seen. So if it was ? i think it would've been shot on an 8mm hand held camera. But these photos have just seen the light of day for the first time. So we can all live in hope :wink:

Did you guys see the video snippet of Randy from this show posted on Youtube earlier this year? Someone posted it on this forum, I believe (sorry, I don't know how to link it.) So somebody was videotaping the ozzy gig that day, although they were back a ways in the audience.

My friend knows Fin Costello pretty well have you asked him about photos mate ?

It's regret, i think that really is the worst kind of pain, yeah guilt is bad, and sadness is bad, but regret is the sickly combination of both.

Yeah Fin has no control over his photos now, as Getty images have bought his back catalogue. He has retired from photography now. He just does it as a hobby.
