I listened to Joe Satriani earlier and thought
it was time for something mellow, so I put on
a violin concerto composed by the great man
himself, Niccolo Paganini
Being laid up these days I've been watchingmore music than just listening... I have been watching lives shows by Van Halen and Motley Crue, both from 1984, Michael Schenker from 1981 and Terrible Ted Nugent from 1976...
For me, the last thing to go into the CD player was Pat Traver's "Heat In the Street"....a killer album. Also, it features Tommy Aldridge on drums. This was his last band gig before coming to play with Randy. He left Travers and was doing some session work with Gary Moore. From what I understand, Randy was a fan of Gary Moore's and stopped in one day to meet him while Moore and Tommy Aldridge were working in an adjoining studio. Tommy said later he was blown away by Randy's playing and soon joined the new project w/ Osbourne because of the chance to play with Randy. I saw them (Randy and Tommy) later with Rudy Sarzo during the 1981 Blizzard of Ozz tour.......wow, what a stunning combination of players that was...absolutely blistering, never to be forgotten.......but that's another story!!!!!
