Randy is one of my personal favs. I feel he did a lot in the two albums he did with Ozzy. His desire to keep learning more and more about guitar really impresses me. When he was on tour in every city he stoped in, he would crack open the phone book and look for classical guitar teachers. He could have taken the lazy/easy way out and been satisfied with his playing and success, but he didn't.

It's to bad we don't have any additional material from him; just imagine what he would have been like now!

The other thing that I feel really sets him a part from some other guitarists is that everyone that has interviewed about Randy said he was a really nice guy. Kinda reminds you of the Zakk Wylde article where Zack bought a kid a new guitar.

What I really enjoy about his playing is that he throws in these little solo parts all thoughout the song. He bends the neck of his gibson guitar, whammy on his flying V and just has an ability to get unique sounds from the guitar.

In my book, I give him 2 thumbs up! cool.gif
