The guy put Randy and Ozzy together. Ozzy owes him his solo career. Metal fans all over the globe owe him.
Yes....
Funny Story to That Whole Thing(Dana Connecting Ozzy to with Randy) Too....
Yeah. I did a similar thing. My ex was very list and I.put a science book in his hand. He wound up becoming a science teacher. Lol, no acknowledgement for me. He never told anyone.

Wrong. Mostly Ozzy owes his solo career to Bob Daisley, aside from him having enough name and be managered by the Ardens, then Randy, Lee and Jake after which it was just riding the waves created by the aforementioned.
Bob would still have written some great music with another guitarist plus Ozzy's inputs, had Dana not introduced Randy. Of course it would have been very different. But we have to remember Bob and Ozzy were still playing with other guitarists when Ozzy returned from that time in L.A. to England so _all chips were still in the air_ .
Bob said their drummer and guitarist weren't good enough and from then when he heard Ozzy speak about the guy he'd heard in L.A. they still also had to persuade David Arden to have Randy flown to England etc.
Dana may just be one of the greatest rock n roll story tellers ever!. Well done - many more great interviews cued up and coming soon.
Really? I couldn't follow his train of thought at all.
When can we expect part 2 of ozzy meeting Randy?
He fkn Nailed it :)
I was just thinking the same thing. I could spend all day listening to him tell rock star stories all day.
Gram Bonnet is Pretty Good Too.....👍
I feel like "If you love someone's music, don't meet them" doesn't apply to Dana Strum. He seems like one of coolest, easy going guys ever!
Totally.. i met him a couple times over the years and he was always very cool, polite and professional... such a great dude.
When him and Mark were auditioning drummers and guitarists for Slaughter they made sure they guys they hired wanted to be nice to fans.
I met the entire Vinnie Vincent band when they opened for Alice Cooper in ‘87..Every one of them was awesome!!! Very nice to us..I’ve met Mark and Dana since then around 2003-04 and they were just as cool!!
He personally handed me one of his bass picks at one of Vince's concerts
I did laminates for Slaughter for years between '94 - '00, and yes the entire band were fantastic, both to work with and personally. Down-to-earth, hard-working, talented and humble. No matter whether they were headlining, opening or on a larger package lineup they were always incredibly grounded. And excellent writers/musicians to boot. Nothing but love for the guys
I love how he repeatedly acknowledged how lucky he was. Really humble.
Such a cool guy! He should write a book on his life in rock!
Long as he does the audible for it
I met him before. He was super cool 😎 Thanks Dana for being cool !!
Agreed!!
Dana needs his own show!! He has the "IT" factor in telling stories! Truly a gift. I would subscribe in a heartbeat!
“IT” being he’s not a complete fake. He’s speaking some actual truth. Most “entertainers” are narcissistic phonies.
@@readmore4178 Very true! 👍
He's alright. I'd burn one with him. He seems pretty grounded.
totally agree
Yea. He definitely does
I fully appreciate Dana Strum's blunt honesty.
He is right, 80's rock music will never die, I go to the grocery store and they're playing Judas Priest on the PA or Foghat or Warrant and I'm singing along picking up food, you can't kill Rock-n-Roll 😁
Really, because I only hear adult contemporary or pop at grocery stores or Walgreen's/CVS.
@@mariopalos9238exactly I just hear the same computerized mumble rap and mainstream pop everywhere now
I actually met him at the Rock Never Stops Tour in 98 (Scriba New York) He was just coming off stage and I yelled to him as he was walking to his bus. About 15 minutes later he came through the ropes and found me and said,"What's Up Dude?!" We stood there bullshiting for about 10 minutes!! He's an all-around great musician, great personality and just a great person! And yes I did get his autograph! Thx DANA!!!
great story teller, I could listen to this guy for hours, the way he tells his stories etc is so engaging, please get more with Dana
I totally agree
Agreed, this was great. Would like to hear more from Dana.
Tim taught me how to play guitar in 94. He lived in Henderson around the corner from me, but we met at the halfway house. He was a great guy and an awesome teacher. I still play today but the 4 or 5 trips to his house he had me playing songs. If not for that I would never have stuck with it.
I want to hear more about Tim. Dana seemed to be a bit puzzled about him and what direction he was headed in. Shame that he left us so early.
Hey Mac, interesting comment you have here. I’ve been looking into more about Tim and the tour managers arrest with a kilo of coke back in 1993, but there is very scarce information on it.
Was he at the halfway house as a part of a probation or parole thing? Did he ever speak of it to you?
a lot happened that part & time in his life
I love ’80s rockers who age with class and grow as people. Fascinating and inspirational video.
Never really knew nor liked Dana Strum until now. What a great storyteller!
agreed
this just proves we need an hour of dana telling stories and giving his thoughts on everything from groupies to breakfast cereal ... dude is fun, funny and pretty damn smart
Two of the best storytellers of back in the day are Rudy Sarzo and Dana Strum. That’s because they were smart enough to avoid the pitfalls of the lifestyle.
Dana ought to be the go-to guy for so many of those rockumentaries, instead of Dee Snider.
Geez Dana is a great story teller. Here in Australia Slaughter albums were very hard to get from "The Wild Life" onwards, I found a little independent Record shop that would import them for me but the albums were probably triple the price of anything else and took months to arrive. They were worth every cent.
I wish they would tour Australia. Long way to travel to the US for their shows.
Had the opportunity to meet Dana (and his family) on MORC in Feb 22. What an incredibly nice and genuine man! He took time to introduce us to his wife and son, have a full on visit with us, thank us for supporting his band, sign a photo, and wish me a happy BD. He & his wife both told us to come say hey anytime we saw them and that they loved having us approach them. Very cool.
I've had the chance to meet Dana on several occasions, he is the coolest guy. I'm so glad he found a way to make a living out of this crazy business. Thanks for all the music, the memories and the great stories...
Every young musician needs to hear this.
My 20 and 21 year old kids LOVE 80's metal. They go to metal shows too.
Fortunately 80's metal is still alive in Vegas and LA.
80s rock will never die in my house it’s usually blaring out of the windows of the house or blaring out of the windows of my automobile 80s rock rules forever 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Definitely should write his biography, can't wait to read it
His stories about Ozzy are the best
Awesome story, a true guy! I hate grunge, love the 80's rock!
agreed. Grunge sucked long live the 80s-early 90s
After seeing the first part of Dana's interview a while back I couldn't wait for part 2. Dana is a fantastic story teller and we need more. Dana is 80's rock royalty for sure.
Dana start a podcast! I’d listen to your stories all day! I bet he has some great tales of rock stars and the rock business side of things.
Man- these are good interviews. I think there’s a place for more longer form. You’re clearly asking great questions leading to great and insightful answers.
Thank you for this. We appreciate this so much!
This is great. Genuine and truly passing on some priceless history and wisdom. Should absolutely write a book!!.
I have been a fan of his work since 88, great dude and spirit about him. God bless
I loved and still love Vinnie Vincent Invasion and Slaughter! I only got to see Slaughter live back in the day, but they were amazing! Thanks for featuring Dana and his great stories. This is an oral history of one of the greatest periods in music!
That first VVI album was awesome!!
It's so great seeing Dana! I've often wondered how he was doing and have so many great memories seeing Slaughter live on a number of occasions and meeting them too. Fun interview!
Good to hear...So many took the other path.Right On,Dan!
Always admired him for not falling into the trap of drugs and heavy drinking. Damn, can he tell a story though! Really should write a book but maybe he knows too many stories lol Long live 80s Rock!
Slaughter is my favorite! Great interview, Dana! 🥁😎 🎶 🎤 💕
Great interview. Refreshing to hear an articulate logical person. He strikes me as probably one of the best people to have as a bandmate.
What a Nice guy Dana. Thanks for the video. Keep posting those please.
This is the greatest rock and roll story ever told.
I could listen to him talk for hours. I met him at a show and he was very nice. He’s iconic.
Hands down best interviews on this channel belong to Dana. Hopefully more to come!
Fascinating interview!
God bless you, Dana Strum.
Dana Strum seems so very genuine and down to earth. I grew up in 80s and love this music!
Dude gives a great interview. Enjoyed listening. Thanks, Dana.
I saw them on the Rock Never Stops tour in '98. Amazing show all around.
Awesome story telling 🤘🤘 Last time i saw Mark and Dana was 4 or 5 years ago at the whiskey barrel in Laconia NH. Awesome show. Would love to meet Dana and just talk about music. I miss my band days. Still play but not the same. I miss being on stage, playing music. Such a fun time
Great interview with Dana. He was such an integral part of the scene (introducing Randy Rhoads to Ozzy for example!). He made some great music with some cool bands. I actually have his guitar pick from one of those shows he mentioned. Such a cool guy!
80’s Metal will NEVER die!
The greatest era of music
Love Dana’s ability to tell the stories.
Dana is a productive builder of relationships and bands. He's a selfless maker of shit happening. Gold. Pure fucking gold of a human.
Thank you Dana for all your honesty brother..I always enjoy hearing your tales..Stay well..
LOVE 80's metal ! Always will!
Got to meet Dana, Tim and Blas at a meet and greet around ‘93. Very nice, talked to everyone. Got Dana to smile with my then girlfriend (now wife)-something he “didn’t do” for photos. What I didn’t expect was the bear hug from Tim, like meeting a long-lost friend. I was genuinely sad when I heard he passed away.
Great chat!! 80s rock and metal will certainly never die because nothing replicates that vibe and feeling. There’s nothing out there that’s as lasting. A lot of (not all) modern rock and metal sounds the same.
Missing soul, too electronic, forgettable.
Love these guys. Many nights before and after shows I have spent talking everything from music business to guitars to being parents with them. Dana in this interview is just like the real Dana. He is such a great person to be around.
I met slaughter in little rock in the 90s very cool and great guys. Thanks for signing my ticket brothers! 🤘😎🤘
Thank you Dana for such an interesting journey through some absolutely fascinating times.
Long Live 80's Rock!
Don’t know why I never really tuned into Dana, but love this. What a cool and great guy.
Great storyteller.
I was lucky enough to hang/work with the boys a few wks ago at arcada ... and yes, I could listen to dana and the stories all day long.. great guy, treats fans like family. Can't wait to see them again!
Damn, This is GREAT stuff!!!👍🤘🏼✌️👏
I'm thankful I've had the opportunity to play this style of music in these Iconic clubs on Sunset,etc...
Thank you for bringing us these interviews. I could listen to Dana all day. Looking forward to part 3.
#Damngoodtimes
Great interview. Dana Strum sure has some good stories. And, Dana can do a great Ozzy impression.
One of my favorite bass players
Cool Dana, I like what I hear. Dam, your right you were there. and they were good times for all. Thanks for sharing
Keep the Dana videos coming.
FANTASTIC! THIS IS PROBABLY THE ONLY THING ON TH-cam I'D ACTUALLY PAY TO SEE! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THESE! EXCELLENT JOB DANA STRUM!!!
I love Dana Strums down to earth and common wisdom towards his craft and interactions in and towards his generation and experience
I love Dana. Probably one of the coolest guys out there. Brillant mind. Now him I'd like to hang with. Rock on.
Dana is a true gentleman and a great person !
Yeah he has something that just makes you listen. I like listening to Dana's stories. Maybe he should have his own show on youtube or something. Cool and talented guy. Need more. lol
My grand kids are going to know I want Slaughter to play at my funeral. Hell No Celine Dione sad woman.:)
Very well-spoken, grounded human being. Good dude.
Definitely agree to the as long as people listen to 80s metal music. It will never die. I’m in my early 30s And that’s mostly all I listen to all day 😊
thank you dana much love and respect !!!! what else can you say about dana but wow!!!!!!
I still play on that very premise of the way guitar made me feel as a kid. So great to hear Dana put that into perspective. I will play that stupid guitar till death do us part.
Dana Is The Man! I love the way he records albums and mixes them👊🏻❤️👊🏻
Thank you for such an awesome interview!! Dana is such a genuine, cool guy! I wish he’d write a book or do a podcast!! 🎸 🖤✨
Dana I opened up for you and Slaughter in Hershey Pa at a club called Shakeys. You and Mark were AWESOME! You invited myself and my drummer Jerry to have dinner with you guys during soundcheck. Mark listened when we sound checked and we had just released our first full length CD and were playing some songs for the check. He come and asked "you guys are gonna play that stuff tonight right?" I said well our job is to get the crowd going so probably not. He insisted and we talked about our gear. Great night. Thank you Dana and Mark for a great experience. Not all of them were with other bands unfortunately.
Well spoken, clear and the guy just has character.Really good interview..
This guy is my new Charlie Murphy.. his storyline is awesome. And yep slaughter was awesome and also loved 2 songs from Vinny Vincent invasion
Dana Strum is prob one of a few rockers that actually remember the 80s. Hes like the sober friend you were at the bar with last night, the one ya call the next mornin and ask what the hell happened last night.
80's music, or metal will never die Dana? I can grab whichever CD, and play it whenever I want. It's always going to be there for us to enjoy. Thank you for all the great music.
What a great interview. I really appreciated Dana’s stories and insights. He seems like a genuine, level-headed guy. I’ve wished that Slaughter would record some new music for years.
Great interview. Dana is a cool dude.
Thank you Mr Strum. You taught me a lot. Love your videos. I hope I can meet you someday. Chris Canfield, Captain Howdy Pay it foward!
Slaughter is one of my favorite bands. Their music is like positive psychology. It leaves you in a positive mood. Mark S. and the guys are true legends.
I’ve always been so interested in the 80s sunset strip clubs … wish they’d let Dana and a few others just tell tales about the Starwood ,Rainbow, the Whiskey and many more
More Dana interviews please, he's cool!
I always loved Dana, he knows his stuff.
I dig this dude's attitude. Rare to find.
Cool interview! Thank you, Dana!
Really enjoyed this, always knew he was smart and the brains behind some things, but didn't know him or hear him speak, NOW I see why!
Love how articulate he is about it perfect keep going!,,,
I love you Dana.as you so honestly with you interview ❤ hope to get you autograph one day.
Thank you brother for being an ambassador of the greatest musical time period ever! All else pales by comparison! Music uses to be like fine dining regardless of your genre…it was extraordinary: now it’s hot pockets and tater tot’s. Keep it alive!
That was really enjoyable, outstanding perspective. 🤘😲🤘
I thought i was the only one who didn't go to his prom.thanks for video.I still buy 80's metal cd's.
He's so awesome 👌 👏
Dana does an excellent Ozzy impression.
