Show Notes
This week our wild and willing wordsmiths Mick and Joel look at the short but stunning life of Randy Rhoads. A one-time guitarist with LA also-rans Quiet Riot, he became more famous as Ozzy Osbourne's right-hand man following his departure from Black Sabbath. Along with Sharon Arden (later Mrs Osbourne), Randy was absolutely fundamental in resurrecting Ozzy's moribund career. He also proved hugely influential to a brand new generation of guitarists. But all was not to last long. Within just two years upon the world's stage Randy was tragically killed when a senseless prank went wrong. But what a talent, and what a small but perfectly formed legacy.
