Ultimate Rhoads

I would like to applaud the Osbourne's for the extras on the box set. After Hours looked good (although the vid was edited - Crazy Train) as well as the Albuquerque, '81 Paladium and '82 NM footage. It gave me a real sense of the Diary concert atmosphere. We all wish for more Ozzy/Randy footage lik...

Diary wasn't worked on as long as Blizzard. I gotta think that there was less money because the band needed to work (just finished UK Tour). One of the better things you can credit Sharon for is getting them back in the studio. Ozzy only had a deal for Jet records in the UK. It wasn't until after D...

"Eating before concert not recommended"

That's funny stuff! I imagine if you were to catch a nice Porterhouse or T-bone you could take it home and have it for dinner, LOL.

I bet Randy is laughing his ass off about all this religion talk.

"Look Jimi, they are fighting over ME!"

Actually, Frankie Benalli wrote the triplet part that showed up on "Over the Mountain." The original L.A. band that Ozzy rehearsed with prior to going back to England was Frankie Benalli on drums, Dana Strum on bass and Randy. I have stated this before also... I read it in an interview wi...

Check this out! There must be more PRO footage of Randy Rhoads out there!!

That was put on for an interview I believe. Nothing else from that was recorded.

Blizzard of Ozz's debut album was made while everyone was on drugs. Strange things happen being under the influence of grass and coke. :lol: The album has a lot of fade out sounds, not the best production due to the low cost involved. Diary of a Madman had a somewhat better budget thus a somewhat be...

ME ME!!

There should be a shrine there just like at the corn field where Buddy Holly's plane went down. Yes, I know it's at a person's house (garage). Anyway, it was the last place Andy, Randy and Rachel were alive.

The thing that gets me is that Randy was afraid to fly. I hate to fly. If it wasn't for vacation or business I would never get in a plane. Especially some small aircraft. You couldn't assure me of anything. No "he won't do anything stupid" or "he was fine when we went up" could m...

I'm a motherf^¢king hardcore Randy Rhoads fan! I'm damn glad I bought the box set. Not even an option not to buy it. The biggest deal was that those albums are now restored with Bob/Lee intact and beautifully remastered (not destroyed like a lot of today's squashed mastering). A great new live CD a...

Lee Kerslake said that Bob "took Randy by the scruff of the neck" and sort of tutored him along and helped him. Here's the thing about Randy. It's clear from listening to those QR songs that Randy wasn't much of a songwriter. Phenomenal guitarist, but there are lots of great guitarists wh...

[/quote]didn't mean it to be anything personal against you rhoads-fan. My bad if it sounded that way. Just seems like its always bob bob bob around here anymore. i'm sure bob helped shape randys playing on those records.. just feels like he wants us to think he did everything on those albums.[/quote...

I tend to think Bob Daisley had more of an influence than possibly Randy did. Bob has also said he talked to Randy about the way the music should be played. Did Bob also hang the moon? I mean how much credit does this cat think he should get? No lyrics = No songs Of course Randy's playing was excep...
