the Heavy Metal book I bought that one back in 85 or so. Believe it or not, it's pretty old. It has great pics of Randy which now I am sure have been reposted over and over , I think they are from the Mtv photo shoot or cow palace show. If I remember I need to break that one out, it has the guitar player interview articles from the 82' issue. The biography from David Bene on ebay, I bought that one too. It does mention some personal things more human and more the focus is young Randy through QR. I think cause Kevin D. and Kelly were some of the main sources. Not the Ozzy camp. Mick Wall book I bought again around 88' at a bookstore. Awesome book. I have a couple of the others mentioned,which I need to dig out and look at again. I have heard $haron O. is a good one to read.

and Rudy's is great, a must!

I noticed that the price of this book has gone down a hell of alot i would buy it but i'd get hammered with the shipping costs to the UK. I think two are available so snap up a bargain before they all go...
