8 Unforgettable Randy Rhoads Moments

Randy Rhoads was one of the most revolutionary, rip-roaring and influential guitarists to ever rock planet earth. Remembering the Ozzy Osbourne / Quiet Riot shredder who left us too soon, here are some unforgettable moments from Randy Rhoads.

Rhoads really became a guitar titan when he joined up with Ozzy, but if you’ve never seen him shred onstage with Quiet Riot, you’re missing a giant piece of Randy’s career. There’s a ridiculous six-minute video on YouTube of Rhoads stretching his guitar’s limitations to its very zenith, and it was just for a crowd of a few hundred instead of thousands.

Few guitarists have put on a clinic like Rhoads did on Ozzy Osbourne’s debut solo album, Blizzard of Ozz. We all know the kick-ass “Crazy Train” solo, but Randy’s neoclassical influence really came shining through on tracks like “Mr. Crowley.” You’ll see him rip through that devilish track along with a classic part from “I Don’t Know.”
