Clapton is the man, but Eddie is the best/Michael Jordan of guitar and Angus has more memorable songs than Van Halen and that's just the facts but Eddie nonetheless is the best ever
I knew the father of Sharon was a crook but never thought his daughter was like father. And this while they already were filthy rich. Jake E. Lee isn't the only one, Lee Kerslake and Bob Daisley told similar stories. And there are more. And also many others showed they can't trusted. It pisses me a bit off that my heavy metal heroes aren't what they look.
I feel bad for Jake. I got to see him with Ozzy on the Bark at the Moon tour in Dallas, Tx. He did do Rhoads justice on the songs Rhoads wrote and played on. I got to see Rhoads live too with Ozzy before the accident that took him away from us way too soon.
That's really sorry if Sharon they got millions and Jake got hundreds jale was the best guitar player Ozzy had besides Tony Zack blows Jake knows how to play an axe love every song on both albums check out Jake smoke on lightning strikes
Apparently Jake ain't the real shit he THINKS he is. I'd say a stint with Ozzy is lone his claim to fame, He wasn't with RJD because he played one style which didn't suit Dio. "I give up," the mantra of a loser.
ACDC SHOULD HAVE BEEN HEADLINING, AND THEM OPENING FOR ACDC. DON'T GET ME WRONG BUT, I WILL SAY THIS, FROM 1 TO 4 , ACDC, VAN HALEN, OZZY AEROSMITH,,SORRY BUT THAT'S MY LINE UP. LOVE THEM ALL. I SEEN ALL OF THEM IN CHICAGO AND ALPINE VALLEY WISCONSIN
That's so sad that these guys busted their asses to write these songs just for these selfish people to screw them over and throw them out like yesterday's garbage! Jakes my favorite guitarist from Ozzy as well!
Fantastic video. During the pandemic, I stumbled across an interview Jake E Lee did with some podcast. He talked a lot about the Ozzy years, but more so how management screwed over Badlands. He went into details about how the last tour was paid for by themselves and they traveled with all their equipment. Ray's death was a tragedy, and you nailed it how grunge came up out of nowhere. My dad was a failed musician in a band, who never got famous,and was always bitter how grunge just came up out of the blue and the landscape of rock music changed overnight. Many bands were dropped in favor of the hot new thing that was coming out. The story about George Lynch is sad. I had no idea he was nearly in Ozzy's band. Thank you for these stories, they're incredible. Jake was one of my favorite 80s guitar players. The Ultimate Sin has some really good songs, and his guitar playing had more of a blues touch to it that I fell in love with.
I watched a vanhalen video and they said after touring for the 1st album they were still in debt. I was friends with lorn black (great white) R.I.P. he was paid 150 a week food and travel accommodations were covered. He really got screwed on writing. He rearranged a lot of the songs. Jack in a interview says he was 6 hrs late to rock me video shoot and was fired before he arrived yet it's lorns hands in the video. Jack was a asshole way back in Dante fox. It's amazing he shot the maid in a botched armed robbery trying to get money for coke. Him and Kevin Dubrow were a pain
..... R&R is a street-level business & Ronnie did learn from the best in the business (Ozzie, Blackmore... promise, delay, obfuscate, lie, repeat) & R&R was very, very good to him.
When a boy picks up a guitar, he learns the girls come 'round... And he sees things heat up when he gets his licks down... So now he believes in these mythological gods, lightnin', and money... And then he starts up a band and things begin to get bloody... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game...
And now the bands starts giggin' at these nightclubs where there's always a sinister element... And they seem to have forgotten all about God and the words of the new testament... And all the kids say, "These guys are heavier than Nine Inch Nails"... And a major record deal has now become the holy grail... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game...
Now a hot-shot producer comes along and they all sign on the dotted line... And they go in the studio and now it's just a matter of time... And they tour Europe and they get drunk on stage, but in England they think that's cool... And back in the States, the critics set up and start to drool... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game...
So now it's tattoos and piercin's and leathers and groupies and go-fers... And managers, and agents, lawyers, publicists and chauffers... And the party's never gonna end as far as anyone can see... And then a friendly stranger shows up and says, "The first one's free"... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game...
And now the band has become the darlin's of the media - they're all the rage... And there's hysteria and public appearances and fistfights backstage... Ah, it seems the gods have smiled upon the band and have embraced them hell-bent... So now it's carte blanche, 'cause money talks even in hell...
And then comes E.R.'s and stomach pumps and machines that kickstart the heart... And the band breaks up and the bass player O.D.'s as the album reaches number one on the Billboard charts... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game... Rock-N-Roll is a vicious game...
And now the band has become the darlin's of the media - they're all the rage... And there's hysteria and public appearances and fistfights backstage... Ah, it seems the gods have smiled upon the band and have embraced them hell-bent... So now it's carte blanche, 'cause money talks even in hell...
I saw the "Triple Threat", Dio, Megadeth and Savatage.I saw Ozzy twice.Dio and Ozzy, were two of my rock heroes.At the time, i didn't know what two selfish,idiot fools they were, i was too immersed and indoctrinated to even know the difference. They cant enjoy their misered,millions because Ronnie is dead and Ozzy is brain dead. It looks like we all get our just rewards!😏🤷
