IMO the greatest guitar player of his Era and genres. So fluent, graceful and crisp, and totally in a class by himself. Take nothing g away from the others of the time, Eddie VanHalen, lynch, kirk, Mustang their all great in their own rite but what randy did in his brief time blessing us with his talent is unsurpassed. His mosoleum is like 2 miles from where I am born n raised and spent a lot of time there thanking him for what his guitar majesty has done for me personally.
I think randy was slightly better than Eddie...Eddie was technically brilliant but he was missing that special something which was soul quality...magic only randy had...if Jimi Hendrix had lived long enough to hear both their work he would say randy had IT like Jimi had IT and Eddie slightly missed it... 1. jimi 2. randy 3. eddie
A Randy Rhoads video is a lot like a Bigfoot video. You can be sure the person recording can not possibly hold the camera still or focused on the star. Randy breaks into the first solo and camera cuts to Tommy Aldridge. Incredible incompetence.
god damit where is all the pro shot stuff??? i mean, this qualifies as pro shot but only because the camera man is on the stage. is this one of the gigs rudys brother was filming?
1. jimi 2. randy 3. eddie thats how it goes...eddie was groundbreaking and technically brilliant but missing the soul quality and magic that randy had and of course jimi had in spades
