This morning I was looking through my music bootlegs and came across a Randy Rhoads compilation DVD I bought a while back and it got me curious. Side note, this DVD has After Hours, the 3 or 4 songs from New York and various news clips. Just in case anyone was curious. I think it has Quiet Riot footage but I'm not certain, overall quality is decent but not as good as some of the stuff on YouTube.
So I'm curious is there a compilation out there with the best quality and all the latest findings? I was looking at getting Six String God but I also saw a torrent out called Ozzy - Randy 1978 - 1982 but I wasn't sure of the quality. I'm aware of the NY and Mexico concerts which I hope to get in the future.
Anyone have any recommendations?
Is there a specific video compilation with the best quality?

The Randy 1978 - 1982 sounds like the tape you have mentioned... Not sure what the contents are on the Six string God disc. Most of the seen footage is what you have and the other clips on youtube etc ...

The 78-82 footage includes the soundcheck, Chicago footage and a few others that my comp doesn't have.GUITARIDOL5682 wrote:The Randy 1978 - 1982 sounds like the tape you have mentioned...

I've read the Six String God DVD has an out of sync After Hours.
I may just find the best off YouTube and make my own.

Re: Is there a specific video compilation with the best qual
Just an update for anyone interested. I downloaded the Rhoads 78-82 compilation and it was good in some parts and not so hot in others.
The Quiet Riot footage was a bit grainy, dark and had a few blurps.
After Hours seems like a good quality VHS rip.
Chicago footage is watchable and not bad.
New York show is decent
Anyways, still a good compilation to get but I certainly plan on trying to put all of the best quality videos together in a single compilation. I may try and get Six String God but we'll see, I'd love to get a good deal on the Quiet Riot Years but I've only seen that on eBay in around the $90 range.

Re: Is there a specific video compilation with the best qual
I have both the Six String God and the Quiet Riot years..both are pretty good. The Quiet Riot years along with the book were very enjoyable, it transported you back into that time very well..I really enjoyed that part where Randy was teaching a student Van Halen's "Runnin with the devil" lead...

I haven't heard that story about him teaching a Van Halen lead. Care to share good sir?devorerd wrote:I have both the Six String God and the Quiet Riot years..both are pretty good.

There's an audio clip on the DVD of Randy teaching one of his students a section of the "Devil" solo...He talks and they plays some of it...I've read that he often taught Van Halen licks to many of his students.
