First Time Hearing OZZY OSBOURNE - "Mr. Crowley" 1981 

This song's solo is epic. RIP Randy Rhoads, you were incredible and still are.

Aleister Crowley was an English occultist who lived from 1875 through 1947. Ozzy played heavy metal throughout his career. Heavy metal existed long before System of a Down. Love your channel and observing you reacting to unfamiliar music with an open mind.

Randy's use of triplets during the solo is so brilliant. It keeps the cadence moving while providing texture. It's very classical in nature.

Ozzy helped give birth to metal when he was in Sabbath, and made people fear it even more when he went solo. Metal was like satanic worship to people back then. They just didn’t understand it was another way of expressing music and was something they didn’t understand so they labeled it “demonic” and “aggressive.” While some metal can be like that, this is an example of its more beautiful side.

Ozzy Osbourne and Randy Rhoads are 🐐 🐐

RIP Randy Rhoads and Lee Kerslake..both gave me great music that gave me so much when I needed it and continues to inspire!

Randy Rhoades was one of the best guitarists there was. An absolute legend of his time. RIP!

I had tickets to a concert with Ozzy Osborne, on the way to the concert Randy Rhodes died in a plane crash, what a tragic loss, guys, you're listening to like one of the top 4 guitars ever

I believe that's Tommy Aldridge on drums. He's still drumming at 70 years of age for Whitesnake. Rudy Sarzo on bass. He was with Quiet Riot and of course the great Randy Rhoads on guitar

As a lifelong rock guitar enthusiast, it always fun to see someone experience the greats for the first time. These dudes are funny as hell too. They remind me of my parents how they remember names and stuff just a little bit off what it really is.

Randy Rhoads on lead guitar. He was hands down one if the best guitarist of all time. We lost him far too young he was 25 years old when he died. RIP Randy.

People forget that Humans created Instruments. Beautiful Instruments. From our souls and the beats of our hearts. When you listen, I mean really listen, it taps into something primal and instinctual. I love it and love seeing people experience it. ✌🏽

One of my favorite guitar solos I've listened to.

Randy Rhodes is a Legendary! He died in a plane crash when they were on tour for Crazy Train album not long after this time. He is considered one of the greatest guitarist of all time. Such a loss for all of us. Can you imagine what he would of accomplished if he would of loved.

It's amazing to see tiny little Randy Rhodes up there with guitar that's as big as him just shredding and never missing a lick. RIP Randy

Not only is Ozzy still alive, he just dropped a new album. A great song from the new album to check out is Patient Number 9. This performance is a bit slowed down compared to most versions. I prefer it slower because it has a more ominous feel.

When I watch Randy Rhoads play it brings tears to my eyes. He was just incredible! I was at the concert in Orlando when they didn't make it.

Randy Rhoads was taken from us way too soon. Such incredible technicality and poise. Truly a master of his instrument. RIP sir...

RIP Randy!! Gone to soon, killed in a plane crash, Ozzy is and Always be a master metal.

Allister Crowley practiced magic, Mr. Crowley is Ozzy's song about him of course, Jimmy Page ( Led Zeppelin guitarist) has lived in Mr. Crowley's house in England for a long time now.

Don't forget who's on drums, Tommy Aldridge. One of the greatest drummers OAT.

Not sure what's more amazing, your first time hearing this or the fact Ozzy is still alive and rockin 🤘

Randy Rhoads was absolutely amazing. My favorite of all the guitarists that have played with Ozzy and Black Sabbath through the years. Gone too soon 💔

RIP Randy! Best Metal Guitarist of all time.

His voice is one of a kind! When he sings you knows it’s Ozzy!

My fav Ozzy song

This song was about Aleister Crowley, Aleister Crowley born Edward Alexander Crowley in 1875, was a famed writer, occultist, and hedonist known for practicing magick-this unique spelling not only differentiated his practices from stage magic, but also encompassed all actions leading toward a person’s destiny, or their “True Will.”

Keep em coming guys, great reaction! Thanks for checking out my request! Remember the guitarist Randy Rhoads (my #1) was killed in a small plane crash at the age of 25 in 1982. He was just incredible...You guys gotta do a review of Ozzy - Revelation (Mother Earth) with Randy Rhoads from the album Blizzard of Ozz (edit, also check out the songs Diary of a Madman, You cant kill rock n roll, Flying High Again etc etc etc) Randy was the shit...

The bat biting thing began with a dove. At some record deal signing event, someone handed him a dove, with the idea that he'd release it as a symbol of peace (this was 1981 and we were all living under the very real thread of nuclear war). Ozzy was pretty drunk though, by this point, and just bit the head off and spat it at the journalists, with blood dripping down his chin. The bat came a year or so later, when someone threw one on stage at a gig. Ozzy picked up the stunned bat and bit its head off (he says he thought it was rubber), and the bat promptly bit him back and he had to be treated for possible rabies. It's hard not to love someone who was banned from San Antonio for 10 years, for pissing up the Alamo.

I'm 58 yrs old and your reactions are the exact same as mine when I was a teenager way back then. You guys have a really fun channel, keep it up!

The song is an ode of sorts to Aleister Crowley, an English poet, magician, occultist and something of a counterculture icon from the early 1900s.

Still to this day one of the most tragic losses in all of humanity. The man was as gifted as Mozart when it came to composing.

Motley Crue was on tour with Ozzfest many great bands toured with Ozzfest , many bands toured in Ozzfest and it gave them recognition and made them famous

it is pretty awesome watching you guys evolve into rock fans ! 👍

The studio version of this song is 10,000x better. This one has the weirdest, dragging feel to it. It’s great to see Randy Rhoads play, but the overall performance by everyone just isn’t same

“Mama im coming home” ozzy best song. Peep that

Greatest Rock Guitarist Ever!!! GOAT!!! RIP Randy Rhoads!!!

Randy Rhoads one of the GOATS on guitar!!!

Close my eyes forever duo with Lita Ford n Ozzy. And mama I'm coming home by Ozzy

Learning Randy Rhoads solos is a must for any metal guitar player to this day. 🤘🤘

Y'all finally met the greatest guitarist of all time! This man is the reason I started learning to play guitar, him and Zakk Wylde who also plays for Ozzy

Glad you enjoyed this! A great metal song to check out is Run to the Hills by Iron Maiden!🤘

The way Randy infuses melody into that hard as hell neo classical is god given

Excellent choice fellas!!! Heading over to see your barracuda reaction....btw that incredible guitar guy is the late great Randy Rhoades RIP

Some brothas listening to Ozzy n Randy Rhoads! Respect!!

In this song Ozzy's singing about Alister Crowley, a famous person from back in the day that was hardcore into the occult. Not just satanic, but other ancient religions. I think Led Zeppelin bought his house and alot crazy shit happened there. Check it out!

I LOVE y'all! Great way to get a new perspective on some of my favorite songs. Please keep doing this.

I saw this tour and have amazing 35MM pictures of Randy Rhoads that the world has never seen...Rock N Peace Randy...🤘🎸🤘

RIP Randy - one of the best! Great reaction guys!

Randy Rhoads forever! My inspiration ❤❤☮☮

1980's wow , had a great time. Girls ,concerts parties, joined the usmc. great song !

The bass player in red, Rudy Sarzo, was also in the band Quiet Riot 1977 before joining Ozzy's band 1981 and then later re-joined Quiet Riot 1983. Rudy's brother Robert Sarzo is a guitarist.

Mr Crowley one of Ozzie's many Mega hits Diary of a Madman is a really good song as well as blizzard of Oz other songs No More Tears, Mama I'm Coming Home, the ultimate, sin, and many other number one hits when Ozzy went on his own after he left Black Sabbath

one of the greatest live performances ever captured. Randy was just amazing

much love for you guys Ozzy hell yeah

One of the best guitar solos ever ! Another excellent solo is Vinnie Vincent's in the song Not For The Innocent (Kiss).

Ozzy is still rocking.

Maiden is probably one of the highest energy live heavy metal bands in history lol

Also, I just wanna thank the lot of you of you for bringing pure entertainment for the last little while. I really like watching people experience things I enjoy for the first time. Alot of promise in the fact that you guys literally have enjoyed everything you've watched on this channel. It's good to have an open mind.

One of my Ozzy favorites is "Mama, I'm Comin Home". Great video and a different side of Ozzy.

You guys are hilarious and definitely appreciate your respect for the masters of rock. And metal lol. Great reaction 😃

Three separate killer solos 🤘🤘🤘

You guys might not like a lot of these songs but wow talk about bringing back memories from the old days for me here and everybody check out these old classic metal and rock songs either way you guys keep rocking out

Heavy metal goes all the way back to late 1960's. The song "Helter Skelter" by The Beatles was actually the first Heavy metal song recorded, I think that was in 1968. Ozzy Osbourne didn't know that he bit the head off of a real bat but, he deliberately bit the heads off of 2 white doves in the year 1981 during a business meeting with his record label, Epic Records. I don't know all of the details, but this was for real! Yeah, I'd call that pretty damn dark and crazy!

You guys should react to their live version of war pigs, amazing performance by their drummer

The best part about this video is Ozzy wearing his homemade "OZZY" shirt

Watching Randy play brings tears to my eyes

As I listen to the first solo, I glance at the miniature Randy Rhoads polka dot V above my fire place and got an amazing chill through my body. RIP Randy. The fact that his music still produces such a reaction speaks volumes.

Not gonna lie, guys, this is a crazy deep song to cover.

Do korn freak on a leash

Lost a lot great ones to plane crashes. Love ozzy. Remember to play Rush- Tom Sawyer I really enjoy watching these young men discover new and old music of all genres

I absolutely love it when I see one culture enjoying anothers' music.

Oh yeah!! Mr. Crowley. What a great classic. And, it's so cool because, Crowley was an actual person. Love and Blessings guys. BTW, the audio sounded like it may be dragging a bit

One of the coolest songs. This one is about a man named Aleister Crowley who was a mysticist back in the 60s. He thought he was an actual wizard.

I was fortunate enough to see this tour in 1982 when I was 16 in Ann Arbor, Mich...drove from Detroit to see Ozzy and Randy Rhodes. He is in rarified air on the guitar with Eddie Van Halen and maybe 2-3 others. So glad I got to see Randy live...

You reacted to Gary Moore a short while ago guys, and it was Gary who finally persuaded Randy to join Ozzy. Gary was Ozzy's first choice to join his new band, but Gary had already started his own solo career after leaving Colosseum II and Thin Lizzy, so Gary helped Ozzy find a new guitarist. Randy had already been offered the job by Ozzy, but it was Gary, after Randy asked for Gary's advice, who told him that if he joined Ozzy's band he would become recognized as the great guitar player he ALREADY was. How right was Gary, Randy was phenomenal. I'm pretty sure at some point Gary and Randy would have collaborated on a project at some point, after becoming friends. R.I.P. guys.

Rip Randy Rhoads

Hey guys, love you reactions and your overall vibe, keep it up! If i may request a react I would love for you to see Rammstein - Du hast live it will blow your minds how lit it is! cheers from Portugal!

Wow guys, it's great that you're digging music history out, I just spent five hours going through your videos and reminiscing my young years!!! Still didn't see any Deep Purple (Smoke on the Water) to my surprise. Jethro Tull with Locomotive Breath is another suggestion. Keep it rolling, we love it👏🥰.

The amazing Randy Rhoads on lead guitar. Left us way too young @ 25 yrs. young in a senseless plane crash. RIP Randy

Try out Dreamer by Ozzy you’ll love that song

An Occult based song, and one reason he's the Prince of Darkness. The guitar is Randy Rhoades a guitar prodigy as you can hear, who died tragically in a car crash a year later.

Hi Family, I'm from Aust or, oz as I call It down here. love your show and reactions, you fellas give me a laugh. I was hoping you might look Up , Gurrumul Yunupingu. He was a blind Aboriginal man, learning guitar In the outback, he played his guitar upside down. You need to hear this man. like an angel. And Yoyhu Yindi. Try treaty, a hit at pollies. If you've heard of Australias Deltra Goodrem , she did a song with him also (Gurrumul). I would love your reaction. And also your thought on Us Indigenous. Pay My Respects to Elders, Past, Present and future. Wominjenka from Wurundjeri country, Kulin nations. OZ.x Peasc guys.

YOU guys are funny 🤣😂 I enjoy your reaction😊 bless you all

This song is about Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), a British practitioner of black magic. Known as "The Wickedest Man Alive," Jimmy Page based some of the Led Zeppelin album covers on his work.

Megadeth holy wars

legendary band line up R.I.P Randy

Lots of great music out there from every genre. Keep it up guys.

Thank you for your honest reaction I love you all

I am old enough to remember when this album first came out. Saw Ozzy w/Randy on Dec. 31st, 1981 in Los Angeles. This entire album was mired in controversy. There are three versions of this album - the original, the 2002 reissue, and the 30th Anniversary edition. The bass player and drummer you see in the video (Rudy Sarzo and Tommy Aldridge) are not the people who recorded the original version (Lee Kerslake and Bob Daisely). Sarzo and Aldridge are on the 30th Anniversary edition. The 2002 reissue is Robert Trujillo and Mike Bordin. Ozzy reissued the album in 2002 to avoid having to pay Kerslake and Daisley royalties from the original version.

Ozzy is my favorite singer I've seen him live 3 times !!! I know you will love his work!!!

This is one of my favorite Ozzy songs. The guy he’s singing about was definitely fitting of Ozzy singing about him. Long Live Randy!!

You had me and wife rolling with 'Donkey Teeth".🤣🤣😆

New fan for life,You guys are the best.

I remember having to teach this song a lot I've been playing guitar since I was 7 I'm 20 now turning 21 and this is my favorite solo to play when I gig I close the nights playing this solo

the guitarist was the late, great Randy Rhoads, who tragically died in a plane crash after recording the Diary of a Madman album (right after this album).

That bassist is Rudy Sarzo. He is a legend who also played with Quiet Riot and Whitesnake!

You guys are awesome.. best part was guy in back in black Hoodie playing air guitar on first solo and facial expressions.. lol .. much love

I never expected to see 4 black guys rocking out to this kind of music, but I’m here for it 😂😁👍🏻 awesome video guys, glad to see y’all having fun

So cool to see you reacting to classic rock/heavy metal!
