Brad was epic! Amazing album Speak of the Devil...still a favourite! Saw Brad play with Ozzy in 82’ and he was outrageously good. Nobody talks about his time with Ozzy but Brad period remains a favourite for me
The Speak of the Devil album is what I used to learn how to play a lot of basic guitar riffs my first couple years of playing. 1983-84ish. Brad Gillis Is tragically underrated but will always be one of my all-time favorites. Was never able to use the whammy bar as a tool for tasty phrasing quite like him though. Nice to know I'm not alone in my love for Mr. Gillis! 🤘🏻
Sykes and Ozzy would have been EPIC!!! That wouldve worked really good, i wish they would do it now even although Sykes does his own music really well, his new single is AWESOME!!! "Dawning of a brand new day"!!
Pete Way was with Ozzy for a bit. So was Brad Gillis. New Night Ranger is kinda cool. Not sure where I'm goin with this. Thanks for the post. RIP Pete, Phil, and Randy.
Nowadays from everything that is out there on ozzy you can tell working for ozzy would be a total pain in the ass. I truly believe had Randy lived and left ozzy. Sharon and ozzy would have screwed Randy over like they did with Lee, Bob, and Jake.
Any rumored reason and explanation for a failed collaboration or potential collaboration, nevermind a feud, if its source is any Osbourne, the likeliness of truth is about 1% if even that.
Michael was only on Lonesome Crow,the 1st Scorpions album before quitting to join UFO , and was on a few Lovedrive tracks when he briefly rejoined. Uli Roth deserves credit for lead on the albums between Lonesome Crow and Lovedrive. Sykes was awesome in Whitesnake.
@@jacobbutler3426 that's what i thought - by the attack, and that "whole handful of a chord" vibrato! the first time i saw a guitar player do that, on a les paul- right in front of me, at a concert, was rick medlocke, then of blackfoot- during "train train" - unforgettable! mid 70's
@@craigrheberling this is true. I never like Vandenberg. He had a couple of good songs in his solo album, "Wait" You and "Burning Heart" I just didn't like his sound.
Schenker or Sykes playing with Ozzy would have been interesting. I think Sykes would have been the better fit of the two but I guess we'll never know. That being said I don't think Brad Gillis ever got enough credit for his time with Ozzy - he was amazing! Criminally underrated for sure
Lol, thank God both Michael and John declined the offer !! While John might take Randy's place, Michael is way too much for Ozzy, he must be only his own boss!
...And Michael is not into playing other guitarist's leads, which he would've had to do with Ozzy. He didn't like playing Uli's leads when he was with the Scorpions.
@@thomasbrandt4816 absolutely , that's why he left Scorpions once again despite the fact he played Uli's stuff flawlessly (imho Michael has always been a better improviser than Uli on stage, just listen to what he did on those early Lovedrive gigs, unbelievable guitar playing ) and he never accepted the gazillion of offers from other big names. I mean, I love his integrity as an artist, even in the bad moments! That's rock and roll..
Killer work as always,, Could you imagine if John or Michael joined Ozzy we wouldn’t have there Music contributions so glad we have Randy’s work w/ Ozzy it worked out for the best, interesting... :)
Michael Schenker Group MSG 79-82 that contribution, John Sykes Tiger’s of Pan Tang 83 and Thin Lizzy after that those are the contributions they gave us we wouldn’t have that if they would’ve joined Ozzy ..
Yes Randy Rhoads was one of Sykes' biggest influences. Among his influences were also Eddie Van Halen, Gary Moore and Ritchie Blackmore. There's an interview where John Sykes says that he copied Blackmore's stuff in the 70s
Michael Schenker had opportunities to play and record with Aerosmith, Whitesnake, Deep Purple, Ozzy, Rolling Stones, Thin Lizzy...at least this is what he said.
My recall of the story: Michael has wanted a "kings fee" due to Ozzy. So with a little insight in Michaels psychology, this is what likely happened. Ozzy wanted Michael. Michael did not want to join Ozzy nor turn him down either. So he claimed a phantasie fee knowing Ozzy couldn`t accept. So Michael got rid of the job without turning the old Master down.
Interesting. I wasn't aware of this. Good stuff. I love Ozzy's Randy-period as well as Jake E. Lee. To my ear, most of these players have very different styles, so imagining any of them playing with Ozzy during what became the Jake-period is hard to imagine. Sykes is a great player! He and Vivian, I definitely see the similarities. M Schenker, I could definitely see him having been a good Randy replacement. Same with George Lymch, who was of course friends with Randy. Someone mentioned Gary Moore, but I can't imagine Moore playing with Ozzy. I could see Moore playing Whitesnake Slide It In material. On the other hand, I could see Scott Gorham or Scott Robertson of Lizzy playing Randy-type riffs. Of course, Brad Gillis did a terrific job as an immediate replacement for Randy, but he was much better suited for Night Ranger. Soooooo many great guitar players from that era!!!
Can't imagine Gary Moore playing with Ozzy? What about Led Clones? That track is pretty awesome (especially for being kind of a tongue in cheek joke tune) and to me it sounds like Gary wouldn't be too far off the mark to be a fit playing with Ozzy. Not to mention - Ozzy desperately wanted to get Gary in the band for some time.
A little known fact: After the late, great Randy Rhoads (RIP) died, the first guitar player that Ozzie asked (actually begged) to play with him was Dave Meniketti, from Y&T. Dave turned down the offer and Ozzie gave the job to Brad Gillis, who did a great job filling Randy's shoes, before he left to form Night Ranger, another great band. I am glad Dave Meniketti turned down the offer though, because Y&T is my favorite band of all time. Ozzie also offered George Lynch the job, but then later retracted the offer at Sharon's request. Jake E. Lee is also a great guitar player, but rumor has it he was screwed over by Sharon so he left. Zakk Wylde is a very good guitar player in his own right, but his style of pinch harmonics every other note does not really appeal to me. To each their own I guess. Come to think of it, Ozzie has been associated with some really great guitar players over the years, starting with Tommy Iommi, from Black Sabbath. No matter who the guitar player was though Ozzie produced some really good music that has endured very well over many decades. 👌
@RL E Hey, no argument from me there. I just don't want to ruffle the feathers of the Zak Wylde fans. You know how that can get. IMO Jake E. Lee's style fit Ozzy perfectly. He is an amazing guitar player. I saw Jake play with Ozzy 3 times and they were all incredible shows. Too bad Sharon had to screw him over though. Brad Gillis also did an excellent job, considering who he was filling in for. Brad is also a great guitar player, but his style is much different than Jake's (there is a reason they call him the Whammy Bar King....lol). I am happy Brad moved on to form Night Ranger though. I have some great memories with both Ozzie and Night Ranger from the 80's onward. Keep on Rockin'!
FYI, Brad was already in Night Ranger, they were signed by Don Arden’s label as well, that’s why he was chosen, Night Ranger was on break, Brad had two weeks to learn all the material and finish the tour. Brads interview on the subject is here on utube. You can hear Brad tell ya himself.
Schenker is the link between Blackmore and yngwie..never got rhoads in the UK as we were blown away by EVH and couldn't understand all the fuss. JAKE E LEE was definitely a step up from rhoads Though
@@eckg7592 Trust me... Listen to White Zombie's La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Volume One, and Astro Creep: 2000 , in the dark. These albums are loaded with sounds and shit that you can't hear sober. These albums were made for acid. I did it back in '95 and I've preached it to anyone who will listen ever since.
Randy was too good for Ozzy and Sharon, as were Schenker and Sykes. Dave Meniketti was too good for them, too-He turned down Ozzy/Sharon AND Whitesnake...
Schenker claims Phil Mogg punched him before he “disappeared”. Ozzy would have done it with his notorious Birmingham Hello. Michael is crazy like a fox.
If Michael's goals as a musician were to return to being a starving artist, he certainly succeeded with flying colors. He should look in the mirror. MSG fan's memories are more vivid than reality.
I saw Michael Schenker at the Flying Monkey in Plymouth ,NH this year . He's still at the top of his game. The solo during Rock Bottom was incredible .
Its widely known they didnt wsnt to pay a decent guitarist, that's why they got Randy and then Jake then Zakk....they went with unknowns Sharon didnt want to pay nor have a guy overshadow Ozzy ...she said this years ago
@@thomasbrandt4816 are you kidding? Check out his fluid melodic lines throughout the speak of the devil double live album. Sweet rhythm and great improvisation. All those two guitarist would be doing is chuck berry unison bends and pull offs.
Respectfully These two amazing guitarist struggled to play the songs in the manner that was as articulate RR in other words they were not quite good enough and that's the Gospel.
Ozzy the luckiest drunk ever in history rock, if he was really that hammered in those days,, can't stumble on one great shredder after another with luck n a good team,,,,damn lm totally jealous,,lol
John Sykes has always had the most magnificent hair.
And a Awesome sound 🎸
Brad Gillis brought those old Sabbath tracks to a new level on Speak Of The Devil. Just awesome playing.

His bar work is unmatched. Definitely an innovator...
True very true that album screams Gillis on guitar. Pretty good stuff..😎✌
How the hell did he decide that Night Ranger was a good choice
Sykes, Rhoads, Viv Campbell and most any other guitarist of that era were all massively influenced by Gary Moore and also Mike Schenker.
Randy Rhoads lmao, you know everything...mind reader 😭
Yes they were.It's a shame Gary Moore didn't get the credit he deserved. Sykes loved him in Think Lizzy
Totally agree, Sykes and Viv Campbell had always cited Gary Moore as their main influence.
Shenker? That doesn't sound right to me.
Viv Campbell also loved Rory Gallagher
Knac radio, long beach. Was lifestyle during late 80s 1986 LA. No radio station (i know of) played songs like 'angel of death' at 6:00 in morning.
Sykes and Ozzy would have been EPIC!!! That wouldve worked really good, i wish they would do it now even although Sykes does his own music really well, his new single is AWESOME!!! "Dawning of a brand new day"!!

I used to gig with one of those HH amps in my first band when I was a teenager back in the early 80s and I loved it !
Michael Schenker and Ozzy Osbourne would have killed each other fighting over the last bottle of booze.

The John Sykes interview is from Kerrang in 1984, and Ozzy wasn't "pissed off", he was pissed up
Right, I wrote "Ozzy was pissed" meaning Ozzy was dead drunk and Shawn read it "pissed off".
Two great guitar players!

The assertion that JS was influenced by Dio and Vivian is just wrong. Both players were heavily influenced by Gary Moore.
That's True. Gary Moore.
It would never have lasted regardless who Ozzy would have chosen in my opinion,two headstrong guitarist.

Even Gary Moore was offered to play for ozzy. But he rejected because he had his own band.
I heard that!
昔々の雑誌インタビュー記事では、マイケルはオジーの曲を全部練習して、ランディのプレイスタイルも覚えたというような事を語っていた。当時ＭＳＧの2ndアルバムのセールス不調かなんかで借金が膨らんでて金の為に受けるつもりだったようだ。
後に別の雑誌記事ではオジーとシャロンが当時を振り返り、マイケル側のギャラの要求額が大き過ぎて諦めたと語っていたと思う。
ＭＳＧは3rdアルバム制作にとりかかってるタイミングでもあり、それを投げ出してオジーのツアーに参加する事をコージーから咎められたとかいうのも最近どっかで読んだ。
これは全く個人の感想だけど、シングルDancerのB面に収められてた曲の雰囲気がなんとなくオジーの曲っぽいなって。
同じ感想を他の人からも聞いて、やっぱマイケルはちょっと影響受けちゃったのかな？なんて思った。
The proof that ozzy was wasted during the audition is that he couldnt tell if John Sykes was any good
