So many fantastic solos we will never hear because he passed on so soon. Good to see Michael Schenker get some love though. One of the GOATs and often overlooked.
Schencker was a master of cool riffs and his solos are incredible! “Rock You To the Ground” and “Ulcer” from his “Assault Attack “ album have great solos as well as being well crafted.
He had such interesting musical contribution to Ozzy’s music. Not just hard rock riffs but very beautiful pieces which he then blended with the heavy stuff. It worked wonderfully.
One mistake I made in my early twenties was to confuse Randy Rhoads with Gary Phil. I had thought Gary was Ozzy's guitarist in the early 80s before joining Boston, but Sammy Hagar was his employer. That wasn't helped when I found a preset tone in my Line 6 Pocket Pod labeled "Crazy Train" that I thought also sounded like the Boston tone.
When Eddie Van Halen said that Randy copied him, all I heard was jealousy. Eddie couldn't stand to have someone that was on a similar level as himself. Their styles couldn't be more different. Randy's playing was based on Classical. Eddies was not.
@@TheHumbuckerboythat is the same thing I said about Eddie's playing. It was whammy bar heavy. Plus from blizzard to diary Randy's playing changed and was different but still Randy playing. He grew in that short of time. Eddie's playing stayed the same. Not knock Eddie as he is a great player but Randy never wanted to stay the same
@@IRmetal9456 I'll knock evh. He stagnated. Tried the same jealeousy nonsense with Paul Gilbert too by trying to copy the drill bit, no pun intended. Randy was first on the sunset strip. Ed was the copy cat
@@IRmetal9456 Yes, although Eddie lifted the roof off with the showcasing of his phenomenal playing on 'Eruption' it really was the most significant piece of music that he would ever record..
I listen to this Randy Rhoads play the guitar and it makes me nauseous. Listen to Miles Davis play an instrument which was the trumpet and compare him to this. Then listen to Blue Moon. Then go back and listen to this freak

Michael schenker one of a kind I also liked another German guitarist uli job roth
Micheal Schenker has been one of my favorite guitarists for years. I liked Leslie West's pure blast. I saw him live back in the day.
Saw Schenker back in the 80s and he was executing some great lead !
Mine too. I loved his debut album and his third album “Assault Attack “. 😮 Simon Phillips on drums was kind of a surprise. 😅
Randy was one of a kind. Gone WAY too soon!
Glen Buxton of Alice Cooper was a HUGE influence on RR as well...

Plus I never really heard too much similarity due to Eddie's continual use of the whammy as opposed to Randy's style.

I seen Ozzy with Randy prior to his death in Madison Wisconsin Dane Collisium.
Lucky you. ✌️
saw RR on ozzy`s blizzard of Oz tour.

You make no sense at all, Randy was a guitarist not a trumpet player. No 1 has ever heard of you either.
Music is not about being like Miles Davis.
Miles Davis and his skin flute never played rock n roll. That jazz nonsense isn't relevant and never was outside of nursing homes
