There's British English, there's American English, there's Australian English - and there's Ozzy's English that makes my 10+ years of learning English as a second language a total waste of time. 🙂 Thanks for uploading, it is priceless!
Ozzy is my favorite! 😂 These Tapes are Legendary thanks for the Post! Everybody if u love ozzy Go vote for Ozzy to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!
Fawk the RnR hall of shame.... You mean OZZY AIN'T AND HASN'T BEEN INDUCTED YET/OR EVER?.....See? What I tell ya (bought THAT HOF joke that it is anyways) 😒
@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle Amazing!! I Saw Randy Roads On the Blizzard Of Ozz Tour! Unfortunately He Was Killed by the Time I Saw the Diary Of A Madman Tour! Brad Gillis Was the Fill in! But the Show Was Still Awesome And Electrifyingly incredible!! Incredible Times!
I was 14 when this interview took place. I saw the Diary of a Madman tour on February 5th, 1982, in Lansing, Michigan. Six weeks later, Randy Rhoads was killed. It truly does not seem like 42 years have passed. Time is so fleeting. One minute, you're a 14-year-old kid counting down the days until the Ozzy concert. The next thing you know, you're rapidly approaching 60! Thanks for sharing the interview. I miss those days!
I was listening to old Howard stern interviews with him the other night, and O mentions its from psych meds. Hes seemed over medicated, and its been kind of sad to see. But hes also spent a lot of his life being completely unmanageable and out of control. He likely wouldnt still be here if they hadnt managed to calm him down somehow.
The interviewer was Crazy Chris Tetley, I have this on an interview picture disc from way back in the 80’s. I think Chris died a few years ago. Blimey this brings back my childhood memories! Thanks for posting 👍🏻
Nice until he completely screwed him. Technically he already screwed him while this interview happened. It was probably the last time he had anything nice to say about him.
@@TheTapesArchive That's for sure. But I still hold ozz accountable for letting her get away with all the crap she's pulled on every musician who played with ozz. He's like an old mutt following around his owner. And she's definitely the real prince of darkness.
@@mbass718 Ozzy knew exactly what Sharon was doing, he was absolutely complicit in screwing their musicians for money. Jake E Lee himself told us what Ozzy said to him after stealing his credits and royalties for Bark At The Moon, something like "i had to fuck you, that's the business, when i was in Sabbath we got fucked, now i have my own band and i fuck you, eventually you'll get your own band and you'll fuck them, that's how the business works, nothing personal", what a nice chap.😞
@@mbass718Sharon is the Dragon Lady and Ozzy is the 🐀 RAT, that just FOLLOWS her EVERY move/command/suggestions/ta DO etc..On and on .... YES, I tend to think the SAME as you... NOT just shame on Sharon but yeah! SHAME ON OZZY as well!..... SHAME ON the WHOLE Ozzy Osbourne camp for any and ALL of the BS that they "pulled on people"..... Shame Shame Shame.....😒
Yeah, i was thinking that very same thing... loved him from the first listen in 81! From then until he was taken from us, it seemed like a blink of the eye. I didn't even really know what he looked like. But wow, talk about making an impact! I've been missing Randy for 42 long years. 😢

My personal Diary I wrote the next day after the last show of Randy Rhoads in Knoxville Tennessee! RIP RANDY! YOU ARE SORELY MISSED! OZZY OSBOURNE: THURSDAY MARCH 18TH 1982: RANDY RHOADS LAST SHOW AT THE KNOXVILLE CIVIC COLISEUM: DIARY OF A MADMAN TOUR: Upon entering the coliseum after buying my tour shirt and ticket 🎫 stub processing: I noticed the stage was set up like a medieval castle with arches and bats 🦇 flying around the top of them. There was a staircase leading up to Tommy Aldridge’s Drumkit. The top left of Tommy was where Donny Airey’s keyboards were set up. Stage right and left had to cages with which Randy Rhoads would appear from the floor stage right and Rudy Sarzo stage left. OZZY had a throne of which he would appear out of to start the show to Over the Mountain. Tommy had his drum tech dressed as an Executioner stand beside his kit with his arms crossed. The staircase had a small section that would open and a small dwarf named: Ronnie (after Ronnie James Dio the new singer for Black Sabbath-replacing OZZY) and hand OZZY towels and water between songs. Little did we all know that later in the show: the executioner would bring the dwarf out to be hung from the rafters and later he would cut off his head using a guillotine! At the end of the show OZZY climbed onto a giant mechanical hand that OZZY stood on top of and launched unspecified meat 🥩 🍖 into the audience! Of course it was all an a theatrical act as the dwarf appeared to take a bow with OZZY and the band. When OZZY smiled we noticed he put vampire 🧛♀️ teeth in! We laughed hard! I went to the show with my friend Richard and his older brother Greg who was 18 at the time. We were 13. Greatest show on earth! Richard and I were both terrified and thrilled at what we witnessed! Unfortunately the next morning all that excitement and energy was gone as we learned that Randy Rhoads perished in a plane crash in Florida. Richard and I played drums but Greg played guitar 🎸 and he definitely took it the hardest! One of the greatest guitarist of our generation and had just won the new guitarist of the year by Guitar Player magazine. Rest In Peace Randy Rhoads your music lives on! Sincerely, Gary Lagstrom
Thanks for sharing. That brought back some forgotten memories. I saw them at Reunion Arena in Dallas in February, a few weeks before you. Forgot about the executioner next to Aldridge. They must have added the hand and the meat throwing or maybe I just forgot. Plus I didn't know the midget was named Ronnie. I just remember the hanging during 'Goodbye to Romance' maybe they added the guitine. Remember Tommy Aldridge's afro was red, white & blue? Randy Rhoades playing was clean and his sound was impeccable. Fun times.
@@rickshafer6688I think I read OZZY saying they added the Executioner doing more and it was Sharon’s idea that the Executioner also use the Guillotine to cut off his head. I don’t know about Tommy Aldridge’s hair it may have been the lighting that gave it that look. I found out later the dwarf’s real name was John Allen but OZZY to make fun of Ronnie James Dio since he was small as well to call him Ronnie. I do know that when I saw the last show that it was the second date of the second leg of the tour. From the time you saw them they took a 2 week break went back to LA to come up with more ideas according to Sharon. The first date back was Atlanta and Knoxville was the second. When we heard about Randy we were all convinced that OZZY was gonna hang it up and if it wasn’t for Sharon insisting Randy would not have wanted that then OZZY was definitely ready to stop and he said so. Hellva show! Best show I’ve ever seen! RIP RANDY RHOADS ❤
@garylagstrom3864 Thanks for replying. Dude, I was thinking why I thought Aldridge's hair was red white and blue. This is a story but it shows how memory works. Anyway I play guitar, 1982 was my senior year and my band backed a couple of cheerleaders to "Let's Get Physical"-Olivia Newton John. - Anyway, during rehearsals one of the girls and I struck up a conversation about the concert. I was"that was Randy Rhoades!" (About a lick I was doing) She said "the hair?, the red white and blue hair?" Kim Temple was her name. Then I remembered Aldridge's Afro was indeed red, white and blue. Also besides Randy Rhoads I really wasn't interested in the whole satanic evangelism O.O. was promoting. I figure why I don't remember the hand or throwing meat. Ozzy at the end of the show, after the encore, called "every bloody kid up to the stage". I was middle 5-12 row on the floor. So immediately standing on my seat I was bumped and almost knocked over by a wave of humanity from behind. Turning around there were maybe five other people on the floor who remained in their seats. All the rest flooded to the front of the stage. Couldn't see a thing, by that time I'd had my fill. Didn't expect that would be the last time, first and last that Randy Rhoades was available to be seen playing. At least in Dallas. That whole seen was ridiculous man, too much to add. Thanks for helping the memory recall bro. Peace.
Just came across "The Tapes Archive" when I was checking out a Van Halen doc, the making of 1984, and after perusing your vid library I gotta say I'm a bit excited to start watching them. THANKS!!!
When I was 22 years old, Ozzy Osborne was coming to the Sam Houston Coliseum on February 17th (1982). Since first hearing Ozzy’s “Blizzard of Oz” solo album, his new guitar player Randy Rhoads had become my guitar hero. I didn't know much about him, nor did I even know what he looked like, because Ozzy's album pictures really didn't distinguish who was who in the band photo. To this point, I had assumed that the dark-haired guy (Rudy) was the guitar player I had recently come to idolize. Anyway, my girlfriend Mindy and our housemate Chris quickly found a way to score some tickets for the show. I figured if we showed up at the arena early enough, we might get a chance to meet the band before the show. It was a warm afternoon in Houston when Chris, Mindy and I arrived at the concert hall. We made our way around to the loading dock side of the building to look for tour buses or any other sign of band life. The road crew had already arrived and was setting up the elaborate stage for the “Diary of A Madman” tour. Surprisingly, the atmosphere was very relaxed. We were able to simply walk in and observe at our leisure without anyone hassling us. This went on for the better part of the afternoon. As we loitered about the premises, I befriended Randy’s guitar tech. He informed me that the band would be showing up around 5pm to do a soundcheck. In the meantime, he invited me into a makeshift dressing room to have a look at Randy’s guitars. They were sitting on guitar stands right in front of me. Just feet away from my hands were Randy’s signature cream Les Paul with the snakeskin strap, along with three custom made “V” shaped guitars. His polka-dot V, white pinstripe V and a black one, the latter two sporting the name “Jackson” on the headstocks. At this point, I was not really familiar with his guitars. And this was also long before Jackson Guitars became a household name. Needless to say, I was quite intrigued by them. Luckily, I had the presence of mind to bring a disposable camera with me. I asked the guitar tech if I could take a few pictures of the guitars. He didn’t mind, so I began to snap away. Just as I was photographing the assortment of guitars, a rather large and in charge road manager walked in on me and freaked out. “What the f#$k are you doing in here??? Gimme that efffing camera, those are custom made guitars!” he barked. The guitar tech tried to quell the big fellows concerns, but he would have no part in negotiating any compromise. “Gimme the effing camera if you wanna see the show” he demanded. As a 22 year old punk kid, I was in no position to argue, so I reluctantly gave the Paul Bunion looking troll my stupid camera. The guitar tech apologized for the road managers over-reaction and allowed us all to stay and hang out. Like clockwork, the tour bus pulled into the loading dock at 5pm. Tommy Aldridge, Rudy Sarzo and Randy Rhoads soon stepped out. Randy was wearing blue jeans, a black pleather jacket with no shirt under it with a white towel draped around his neck. Absent from the group was Ozzy, who apparently didn’t do soundcheck with the rest of the group. I quickly made my way over to who I thought was Randy and asked for an autograph. Slightly unprepared, I only had a small piece of paper that I had found nearby for them to sign. Rudy signed one side of the paper and Randy Rhoads signed the other side. I managed to make some small talk, at first thinking that Rudy was actually Randy. Up to this point, (As I said, I wasn’t entirely sure what Randy actually looked like). “Man, you’re a great guitar player” I said. Rudy looked at me sort of puzzled and pointed me in the direction of the actual Randy Rhoads. Needless to say, I felt like a douche. Randy was very unassuming, soft-spoken and frankly humble. He happily complied with my autograph request. He had to lean the small piece of paper onto the side of the cinder block wall in order to write his signature. He simply wrote, "Randy Rhoads". After several minutes, the band disappeared inside the arena and we followed along like lemmings. During their soundcheck, I stood directly in front of Randy Rhoads as the band ran through the song “Mr. Crowley” in its entirety. Randy was playing his cream Les Paul and never sounded better. I was in awe that afternoon, watching this soon to be legend warming up for the impending show right before my eyes. Except for my girlfriend Mindy, Chris and myself, (and a few road-crew guys), there was nobody else in the arena. A few short weeks later, Randy, twenty-five years old, was killed in a plane crash in Leesburg, Florida. I was davestated. His autograph remains framed on my studio wall to this day. Also, a few weeks earlier on March 5th, John Belushi died of a cocaine overdose. You could feel a chill in the psyche of the masses around Houston who had just absorbed the news of both of their untimely deaths. Both tragedies were a stark reminder of my own mortality...I'm nearly 65 now.....Can you imagine what would have been captured on my disposable camera had i been allowed to keep it??? That tour manager did a great disservice to the world. I hope he's reading this! Jeff Dyer - Uncle Sally
Pretty good collection, just missing the day on the green interview from July ‘81 28:53 we’re ozzy keeps talking about gynaecology, the after hours backstage interview, the entertainment tonight interview and two on the town interview .
Blizzard of Ozz. Randy Rhodes Bob Daisley Lee Kerslake. Ozzy managed vocal melodies. The credit was never given where it was due. It was originally a band not a solo project
Excellent true statement! I was fooled by Sharon's BS until they pulled re-recording Blizzard and Diary with Trujillo and Bordin! At least Mike Borden was regretting doing it but not Trujillo
this is correct, Blizzard of ozz was a band, except on Diary of a Madman, Ozzy was really reduced to doing just vocals, Lee had to step in to help out with some of the melodies
I remember at the time feeling like the 1980s were crap compared to the 1970s,but compared to the 2020s it was paradise….A much better world….I’m glad I’m old enough to know I’ll be dead soon,the future looks horrible now.
"...influence me in my writing..." Oh, Ozzman... BS... Cut the "trap". You didn't write until Black Rain, mate. :) Go ask Bob Daisley :) /// Thanks for uploading these gems, The Tapes Archive!
Ya, it was Bob and Randy, Bob and Jake, Bob and Zakk......the common denominator is always Bob Daisley, lyrics and arrangements. He was the real savior of Ozzy and, of course, Randy.
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle Yes... He may have contributed with a line or two on Black Rain (as of Black Rain, I had meant), but he had never really written previously. Every time I see "an album I wrote with..." I go like: No, Ozz... ehehehehehe
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle Ozzy wrote the lyrics to Black Sabbath, Who are you, Am i Going Insane and just about all the melodies in Sabbath. Geezer said he would wait on Ozzys melodies before composing lyrics. But Ozzy has wriiten a handful of songs in his time and is still doing so.
This time capsule archive captures an important truth: Ozzy had nothing meaningful - much less complimentary - to say about Randy while Randy was alive. Only after his death - when Randy began to be idolized by fans - did Ozzy begin to self-servingly sing the guitarist's praises. Beyond simply stating his name here (only when asked directly about the band by the interviewers) Osbourne never even mentions Rhoads. Since the plane crash, however, Ozzy has attempted to rewrite history, claiming he considered Randy a musical genius and a beloved brother whose death devastated Ozzy. (Even though Ozzy was back on the road within a couple weeks of Randy's passing - just as quickly as Ozzy could find a replacement guitarist.) The fact is, as per his family, Rhoads thought he was treated like shit by Osbourne and was planning to leave the band as soon as the Diary tour was over.
Yeah I always wondered about that. Because he got Brad Gillis right away and was there even any time off to grieve Randy's death? I mean, how the hell could you just go out and perform again so quickly like Nothing ever happened.
@@antilaw9911 they were broke and the tour was booked, they just had to keep going. Same as when Buddy Holly died, the rest of them went on the next night without him. Show biz.
Thank you. Right on point. Only thing that's wrong is that Randy was contracted to do 3 albums. He was gonna leave after the 3rd one. You're spot on with everything else though. What's abysmal is that Sharon owns a vast majority of the rights to everything Randy did for ozz. Had he lived they would have screwed him the same way they've screwed everyone who's played with ozz and gave him a second career. Completely off the backs of Randy, Bob and Lee. It still hurts to this day that Randy got killed a few weeks before I was set to see him tear the roof off of MSG. I still wish I never went to that show. It was the saddest and lousiest show I've ever seen. If they had an Oz of morals they would have rescheduled those dates and given the fans some time to mourn. What's funny in this interview is the nice words he said about Lee. This was likely the last time he had anything nice to say about him. They also haven't done Shite in keeping Randy's legacy and memory alive. Maybe the only musician they haven't treated like garbage is Zakk Wylde but he sucks anyway. You couldn't pay me to go see him anywhere. He can play the Randy stuff but it has no soul and he just shreds the same scales over and over. Sharon and Oz have been rewriting the history from the moment they got rid of Bob and Lee. Like in the 30 years after the Blizzard Doc.. They make it look like Rudy and Tommy were there from the beginning. Not one word or Pic of Bob and Lee. Bob made out OK and got paid for the work he did while Lee ended up freakin bankrupt and having to sell his house. It only took them about 35 years to send him the platinum albums he deserved from the beginning. He did have a heart of gold saying.. it was all Water under the bridge.. In regards to Sharon and Oz. Anyhow, F the Osbourne family.
Well....I guess im never gonna hear "SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH" the same way ever again. And good for Ozzy helping that starving dog. I hope he might've, could've gotten him a home after the steak. 🥩
As a life long fan of Ozzy , I’d never heard these interviews before. But I have to say, it’s obvious from the lack of Randy Rhoads being mentioned in the interviews that Ozzy didn’t know he’d meet the greatest musician he’d ever meet, until that offal morning on March 19th 1982 ! And imo probably wouldn’t be where he is now if it weren’t for Randy Rhoads RRR
Ozzy knew what he had, he told Dana Strum and Bob Daisley obviously. Certainly in some of the interviews Ozzy does not talk much about his band or Randy Rhoads. I think he knew how good he was when he heard Blizzard of ozz and the double and triple tracking Randy overruled him on...
Clean pro shot video footage of Randy Rhoads from the Ozzy NY from the April 29th Rochester show on video would be the Randy Rhoads Holy Grail to package with Bob Daisley’s rehearsal tapes, I’m sure the interviewer at the end was referring to the After Hours tv show degraded footage that got recorded on April 28th of 1981, the day before the show, it had to be a tragic drug fueled oversight on Sharon’s part how little video footage of exists Randy’s magic, Quiet Riot fans had bootleg camera footage from the crowd trained on Randy in the late 70’s for fucks sake!…Hopefully footage re-emerges…🤞🏼
Wow, a rare period in his career! Obviously was still married to Thelma, (remember kids, $haron took Ozzy from his wife and two young children!) Louis is the little boy on the front cover of Diary of a Madman…that’s Thelma on the back cover, as slumped madman on table.
Thats so funny him talking about Salt Lake City and being banned from the city , But i saw him in Jan. of 1982 w Randy on the Diary tour . So glad you weren't totally banned Ozzy !!!
Hmmm,ozzy is a bad interview, he tries to stick to a scipt,but cant do it! I saw him do a really good interview with Whoopi Goldberg back when no more tears came out!
No, it’s ‘Crazy’ Chris Tetley, a DJ from the Uk, he interviewed lots of rock bands back in the 80’s, he made interview picture discs, I have this one on LP 👍🏻
I know Ozzy isn't the most powerful metal vocalist, But Ozzy is the original heavy metal voice, Ozzy has a very unique and haunting voice, And all those great guitarists who worked with Ozzy in his solo career knew it, So they wanted to work with one of the most unique voices in Metal, Not just another typical sounding powerful metal vocalist, They wanted to work with Ozzy, Because he has one of the most iconic and unique voices in music history.
It’s interesting him talking about his wife Thelma; as obviously Sharon was managing at this point and I’m sure I read that Sharon slept with Randy Rhoads to get back at Ozzy for his infidelity; but given what happened to Randy the timeline here is a little confusing… I could of course be talking a load of rubbish
Interesting the second part of the interview is prior to the famous Rochester show and AFTER HOURS< clearly referencing the band as Blizzard of ozz, exposing another lie of the Osbournes. Ozzy's answer on Lee did not make much sense, wonder why no mention of Bob Daisley
OMG... Such a unique soul and a great man I'd love 2 hear more stories man Ozzy ur the absolute fkn best of the best wow what a legend I'd love 2 just meet u u r my friend the G.O.A.T.... wow the way I wrote this kinda makes me seem like ima stalker and creepy AF and thats why im editing this i love me some ozzman and randy roads ozzys bday is dec 3rd and randys bday is dec 6th of 1956 and my bday is dec 6 1976 anyway just clarifying im not a weirdo lmao

@@nicko808 Do you know IF he was a Rock drummer as well, as I thought I caught a part in the interview with THAT reference between him and Ozzy (talkin about Tommy Aldridge)......POOR ol LEE KERSLAKE 😔...As badazz as a drummer LEE WAS? (WITHOUT the help of having/playing double bass) He just NEVER HAD A FULL ON "CHANCE" as being/STAYING "thee drummer for Ozzy Osbourne.... "I guess?" Aldridge supposedly DID play on Bark at the Moon LP but?... He's MORE known for playing Lee Kerslake's PARTS, OFF those 1st 2 ICONIC OZZY albums...... Lol. ROCK the funk ON 😎. 🤘🔥🤘
Jake E Lee (probably the best guitarist of the era) got screwed just like all of the master guitarists that Ozzy had. I'm sure Sharon used Ozzy as well and took him for many millions without him even knowing it while she was Fucking over everyone else.
At 3:20 I realized that the "horror thing" Ozzy is talking about doing doesn't come to fruition until Randy dies and he's recording Speak Of The Devil with Tommy, Rudy and *Brad* *Gillis* ..... right now in this interview Randy is alive & breathing and thinking about guitar riffs ,solos, lines & passages...... My God what would have come if that coked out asshole andrew aycock hadn't have killed Randy that day. I'm sad all over again now
@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle I think he was referencing the horror theme on the Speak of the Devil tour and album art. He hung that dwarf with a noose in the European show and the artwork was even more sinister than the Diary of a Madman cover lol. I just thought that was cool that he said "the horror thing"! He definitely carried it out even with Randy gone...
Nice, but it gives me a headache, Ozzy talks to fast and nervously. I understand him, but ugh. I can't take the no breathing or thinking between questions lol
Odd that this is years before his physical condition which leads to believe he has a stutter and stammer with Brummie accent. Speech impediment maybe due to chemicals. I care for him nonetheless
Wow, You really really have to be an Ozzy fan to Listen to this whole interview, It's annoying as hell to listen to him talk, Can't understand shit he talks, It gave me a headache on the first two minutes of the interview.🤯😩🙄
There's British English, there's American English, there's Australian English - and there's Ozzy's English that makes my 10+ years of learning English as a second language a total waste of time. 🙂 Thanks for uploading, it is priceless!
I was born six miles away from where Ozzy lived in Birmingham and even I struggle to understand him sometimes…😂

Me too. Lol
The album ruled and still does.

Oh Wow!! Thank You For this!! I Was there for the Blizzard Of Ozz and Diary Of A Madman tours! What an Incredible Time to be Alive!🤘🤘
how great were those with that band
@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle Amazing!! I Saw Randy Roads On the Blizzard Of Ozz Tour! Unfortunately He Was Killed by the Time I Saw the Diary Of A Madman Tour! Brad Gillis Was the Fill in! But the Show Was Still Awesome And Electrifyingly incredible!! Incredible Times!
I was 14 when this interview took place. I saw the Diary of a Madman tour on February 5th, 1982, in Lansing, Michigan. Six weeks later, Randy Rhoads was killed. It truly does not seem like 42 years have passed. Time is so fleeting. One minute, you're a 14-year-old kid counting down the days until the Ozzy concert. The next thing you know, you're rapidly approaching 60! Thanks for sharing the interview. I miss those days!
Oh wow, what an AWESOME surprise this is!!! Thank you so much!!!!
This is the clearest I’ve ever heard Ozzy speak.. Possibly booger sugar especially since this is from 81
he used to sound coherent.....now he is bumbling fool
I was listening to old Howard stern interviews with him the other night, and O mentions its from psych meds. Hes seemed over medicated, and its been kind of sad to see. But hes also spent a lot of his life being completely unmanageable and out of control. He likely wouldnt still be here if they hadnt managed to calm him down somehow.

What a find! They filmed After Hours this same night. Crazy!
really ?...
I think After Hours was done early in the morning though so it does not make sense the comment
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle the lady interviewer mentions in the second half that the band is filming their After Hours show this night.
The interviewer was Crazy Chris Tetley, I have this on an interview picture disc from way back in the 80’s. I think Chris died a few years ago. Blimey this brings back my childhood memories! Thanks for posting 👍🏻
NICE!!! In the history of Rock there are few moments as perfect as the Ozzy/Randy combo just after he went solo. Thanks!!!!!
He was actually 32 years old
Its nice to hear that Ozzy thought so cordially of Lee.
Nice until he completely screwed him. Technically he already screwed him while this interview happened. It was probably the last time he had anything nice to say about him.
Sharon helped in that.
@@TheTapesArchive That's for sure. But I still hold ozz accountable for letting her get away with all the crap she's pulled on every musician who played with ozz. He's like an old mutt following around his owner. And she's definitely the real prince of darkness.

@@1wickedgroove he was a real piolet. Just high on coke but how was Randy to know that?
@Hayley.a ...I know, me too. Imo, he was the perfect guitarist. And i have no clue how someone goes beyond perfection. But Randy would have...
God do I wish it was 1981
AMEN or LIKEWISE!

My personal Diary I wrote the next day after the last show of Randy Rhoads in Knoxville Tennessee! RIP RANDY! YOU ARE SORELY MISSED!
OZZY OSBOURNE: THURSDAY MARCH 18TH 1982: RANDY RHOADS LAST SHOW AT THE KNOXVILLE CIVIC COLISEUM: DIARY OF A MADMAN TOUR:
Upon entering the coliseum after buying my tour shirt and ticket 🎫 stub processing: I noticed the stage was set up like a medieval castle with arches and bats 🦇 flying around the top of them. There was a staircase leading up to Tommy Aldridge’s Drumkit. The top left of Tommy was where Donny Airey’s keyboards were set up. Stage right and left had to cages with which Randy Rhoads would appear from the floor stage right and Rudy Sarzo stage left. OZZY had a throne of which he would appear out of to start the show to Over the Mountain. Tommy had his drum tech dressed as an Executioner stand beside his kit with his arms crossed. The staircase had a small section that would open and a small dwarf named: Ronnie (after Ronnie James Dio the new singer for Black Sabbath-replacing OZZY) and hand OZZY towels and water between songs. Little did we all know that later in the show: the executioner would bring the dwarf out to be hung from the rafters and later he would cut off his head using a guillotine! At the end of the show OZZY climbed onto a giant mechanical hand that OZZY stood on top of and launched unspecified meat 🥩 🍖 into the audience! Of course it was all an a theatrical act as the dwarf appeared to take a bow with OZZY and the band. When OZZY smiled we noticed he put vampire 🧛♀️ teeth in! We laughed hard! I went to the show with my friend Richard and his older brother Greg who was 18 at the time. We were 13. Greatest show on earth! Richard and I were both terrified and thrilled at what we witnessed! Unfortunately the next morning all that excitement and energy was gone as we learned that Randy Rhoads perished in a plane crash in Florida. Richard and I played drums but Greg played guitar 🎸 and he definitely took it the hardest! One of the greatest guitarist of our generation and had just won the new guitarist of the year by Guitar Player magazine. Rest In Peace Randy Rhoads your music lives on!
Sincerely,
Gary Lagstrom
Thanks for sharing. That brought back some forgotten memories. I saw them at Reunion Arena in Dallas in February, a few weeks before you. Forgot about the executioner next to Aldridge.
They must have added the hand and the meat throwing or maybe I just forgot. Plus I didn't know the midget was named Ronnie. I just remember the hanging during 'Goodbye to Romance' maybe they added the guitine.
Remember Tommy Aldridge's afro was red, white & blue?
Randy Rhoades playing was clean and his sound was impeccable.
Fun times.
@@rickshafer6688I think I read OZZY saying they added the Executioner doing more and it was Sharon’s idea that the Executioner also use the Guillotine to cut off his head. I don’t know about Tommy Aldridge’s hair it may have been the lighting that gave it that look. I found out later the dwarf’s real name was John Allen but OZZY to make fun of Ronnie James Dio since he was small as well to call him Ronnie. I do know that when I saw the last show that it was the second date of the second leg of the tour. From the time you saw them they took a 2 week break went back to LA to come up with more ideas according to Sharon. The first date back was Atlanta and Knoxville was the second. When we heard about Randy we were all convinced that OZZY was gonna hang it up and if it wasn’t for Sharon insisting Randy would not have wanted that then OZZY was definitely ready to stop and he said so. Hellva show! Best show I’ve ever seen! RIP RANDY RHOADS ❤
@garylagstrom3864
Thanks for replying.
Dude, I was thinking why I thought Aldridge's hair was red white and blue. This is a story but it shows how memory works. Anyway I play guitar, 1982 was my senior year and my band backed a couple of cheerleaders to "Let's Get Physical"-Olivia Newton John.
- Anyway, during rehearsals one of the girls and I struck up a conversation about the concert. I was"that was Randy Rhoades!" (About a lick I was doing) She said "the hair?, the red white and blue hair?" Kim Temple was her name. Then I remembered Aldridge's Afro was indeed red, white and blue.
Also besides Randy Rhoads I really wasn't interested in the whole satanic evangelism O.O. was promoting. I figure why I don't remember the hand or throwing meat.
Ozzy at the end of the show, after the encore, called "every bloody kid up to the stage".
I was middle 5-12 row on the floor. So immediately standing on my seat I was bumped and almost knocked over by a wave of humanity from behind. Turning around there were maybe five other people on the floor who remained in their seats. All the rest flooded to the front of the stage. Couldn't see a thing, by that time I'd had my fill.
Didn't expect that would be the last time, first and last that Randy Rhoades was available to be seen playing. At least in Dallas.
That whole seen was ridiculous man, too much to add. Thanks for helping the memory recall bro. Peace.
Rhoads not Rhoades.
Spell check keeps adding a 'e'.

Ozzy english lesson from the past ❤ thank you for sharing this 🇫🇮✌️😍
so cool! thanks buddy!
Just came across "The Tapes Archive" when I was checking out a Van Halen doc, the making of 1984, and after perusing your vid library I gotta say I'm a bit excited to start watching them. THANKS!!!
Right on! Welcome!
Ozzy is a true madman.
and a lowlife POS who needs to come clean on many things
When I was 22 years old, Ozzy Osborne was coming to the Sam Houston Coliseum on February 17th (1982). Since first hearing Ozzy’s “Blizzard of Oz” solo album, his new guitar player Randy Rhoads had become my guitar hero. I didn't know much about him, nor did I even know what he looked like, because Ozzy's album pictures really didn't distinguish who was who in the band photo. To this point, I had assumed that the dark-haired guy (Rudy) was the guitar player I had recently come to idolize. Anyway, my girlfriend Mindy and our housemate Chris quickly found a way to score some tickets for the show. I figured if we showed up at the arena early enough, we might get a chance to meet the band before the show.
It was a warm afternoon in Houston when Chris, Mindy and I arrived at the concert hall. We made our way around to the loading dock side of the building to look for tour buses or any other sign of band life. The road crew had already arrived and was setting up the elaborate stage for the “Diary of A Madman” tour. Surprisingly, the atmosphere was very relaxed. We were able to simply walk in and observe at our leisure without anyone hassling us. This went on for the better part of the afternoon.
As we loitered about the premises, I befriended Randy’s guitar tech. He informed me that
the band would be showing up around 5pm to do a soundcheck. In the meantime, he invited me
into a makeshift dressing room to have a look at Randy’s guitars. They were sitting on guitar stands right in front of me. Just feet away from my hands were Randy’s signature cream Les Paul with the snakeskin strap, along with three custom made “V” shaped guitars. His polka-dot V, white pinstripe V and a black one, the latter two sporting the name “Jackson” on the headstocks. At this point, I was not really familiar with his guitars. And this was also long before Jackson Guitars became a household name. Needless to say, I was quite intrigued by them. Luckily, I had the presence of mind to bring a disposable camera with me. I asked the guitar tech if I could take a few pictures of the guitars. He didn’t mind, so I began to snap away. Just as I was photographing the assortment of guitars, a rather large and in charge road manager walked in on me and freaked out. “What the f#$k are you doing in here??? Gimme that efffing camera, those are custom made guitars!” he barked. The guitar tech tried to quell the big fellows concerns, but he would have no part in negotiating any compromise. “Gimme the effing camera if you wanna see the show” he demanded. As a 22 year old punk kid, I was in no position to argue, so I reluctantly gave the Paul Bunion looking troll my stupid camera. The guitar tech apologized for the road managers over-reaction and allowed us all to stay and hang out.
Like clockwork, the tour bus pulled into the loading dock at 5pm. Tommy Aldridge, Rudy
Sarzo and Randy Rhoads soon stepped out. Randy was wearing blue jeans, a black pleather jacket with no shirt under it with a white towel draped around his neck. Absent from the group was Ozzy, who apparently didn’t do soundcheck with the rest of the group. I quickly made my way over to who I thought was Randy and asked for an autograph. Slightly unprepared, I only had a small piece of paper that I had found nearby for them to sign. Rudy signed one side of the paper and Randy Rhoads signed the other side. I managed to make some small talk, at first thinking that Rudy was actually Randy. Up to this point, (As I said, I wasn’t entirely sure what Randy actually looked like). “Man, you’re a great guitar player” I said. Rudy looked at me sort of puzzled and pointed me in the direction of the actual Randy Rhoads. Needless to say, I felt like a douche. Randy was very unassuming, soft-spoken and frankly humble. He happily complied with my autograph request. He had to lean the small piece of paper onto the side of the cinder block wall in order to write his signature. He simply wrote, "Randy Rhoads".
After several minutes, the band disappeared inside the arena and we followed along like lemmings. During their soundcheck, I stood directly in front of Randy Rhoads as the band ran through the song “Mr. Crowley” in its entirety. Randy was playing his cream Les Paul and never sounded better. I was in awe that afternoon, watching this soon to be legend warming up for the impending show right before my eyes. Except for my girlfriend Mindy, Chris and myself, (and a few road-crew guys), there was nobody else in the arena. A few short weeks later, Randy, twenty-five years old, was killed in a plane crash in Leesburg, Florida. I was davestated. His autograph remains framed on my studio wall to this day. Also, a few weeks earlier on March 5th, John Belushi died of a cocaine overdose. You could feel a chill in the psyche of the masses around Houston who had just absorbed the news of both of their untimely deaths. Both tragedies were a stark reminder of my own mortality...I'm nearly 65 now.....Can you imagine what would have been captured on my disposable camera had i been allowed to keep it??? That tour manager did a great disservice to the world. I hope he's reading this! Jeff Dyer - Uncle Sally
I am making music inspired by Ozzy thank you for all your documentaries
Right on! I hope to make more one day.
Pretty good collection, just missing the day on the green interview from July ‘81 28:53 we’re ozzy keeps talking about gynaecology, the after hours backstage interview, the entertainment tonight interview and two on the town interview .
23:19 sad hearing his plans for the 3rd album lineup with Randy. 😢
great t
...never heard of this Ozzy character before... sounds like a nice guy ...
LOL
He's an up and coming singer.
no he's a lying POS bag backstabbing musicians
Well, "nice" maybe when he's not high on drugs or alcohol, and especially when he's not screwing his musicians out of money and royalties.😉
Blizzard of Ozz. Randy Rhodes Bob Daisley Lee Kerslake. Ozzy managed vocal melodies. The credit was never given where it was due. It was originally a band not a solo project
Excellent true statement! I was fooled by Sharon's BS until they pulled re-recording Blizzard and Diary with Trujillo and Bordin!
At least Mike Borden was regretting doing it but not Trujillo
this is correct, Blizzard of ozz was a band, except on Diary of a Madman, Ozzy was really reduced to doing just vocals, Lee had to step in to help out with some of the melodies
RHOADS...NOT Rhodes
GREAT JOB ALL...THANX 4 MAKING Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO the music worldwide.
LOVE YOU ALL...!!!....MUCH LOVE.!!
I remember at the time feeling like the 1980s were crap compared to the 1970s,but compared to the 2020s it was paradise….A much better world….I’m glad I’m old enough to know I’ll be dead soon,the future looks horrible now.
"...influence me in my writing..." Oh, Ozzman... BS... Cut the "trap". You didn't write until Black Rain, mate. :) Go ask Bob Daisley :) /// Thanks for uploading these gems, The Tapes Archive!
he did not write Black Rain, Ozzy never wrote...he did the melodies which really came as a result of the guitar...
Ya, it was Bob and Randy, Bob and Jake, Bob and Zakk......the common denominator is always Bob Daisley, lyrics and arrangements. He was the real savior of Ozzy and, of course, Randy.
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle Yes... He may have contributed with a line or two on Black Rain (as of Black Rain, I had meant), but he had never really written previously. Every time I see "an album I wrote with..." I go like: No, Ozz... ehehehehehe
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle Ozzy wrote the lyrics to Black Sabbath, Who are you, Am i Going Insane and just about all the melodies in Sabbath. Geezer said he would wait on Ozzys melodies before composing lyrics. But Ozzy has wriiten a handful of songs in his time and is still doing so.
Wow I was at that Port Vale gig. The tickets were for Sabbath.
This time capsule archive captures an important truth: Ozzy had nothing meaningful - much less complimentary - to say about Randy while Randy was alive. Only after his death - when Randy began to be idolized by fans - did Ozzy begin to self-servingly sing the guitarist's praises. Beyond simply stating his name here (only when asked directly about the band by the interviewers) Osbourne never even mentions Rhoads. Since the plane crash, however, Ozzy has attempted to rewrite history, claiming he considered Randy a musical genius and a beloved brother whose death devastated Ozzy. (Even though Ozzy was back on the road within a couple weeks of Randy's passing - just as quickly as Ozzy could find a replacement guitarist.) The fact is, as per his family, Rhoads thought he was treated like shit by Osbourne and was planning to leave the band as soon as the Diary tour was over.
You got it.
Yeah I always wondered about that. Because he got Brad Gillis right away and was there even any time off to grieve Randy's death? I mean, how the hell could you just go out and perform again so quickly like Nothing ever happened.
@@antilaw9911 they were broke and the tour was booked, they just had to keep going. Same as when Buddy Holly died, the rest of them went on the next night without him. Show biz.
Thank you. Right on point. Only thing that's wrong is that Randy was contracted to do 3 albums. He was gonna leave after the 3rd one. You're spot on with everything else though. What's abysmal is that Sharon owns a vast majority of the rights to everything Randy did for ozz. Had he lived they would have screwed him the same way they've screwed everyone who's played with ozz and gave him a second career. Completely off the backs of Randy, Bob and Lee. It still hurts to this day that Randy got killed a few weeks before I was set to see him tear the roof off of MSG. I still wish I never went to that show. It was the saddest and lousiest show I've ever seen. If they had an Oz of morals they would have rescheduled those dates and given the fans some time to mourn. What's funny in this interview is the nice words he said about Lee. This was likely the last time he had anything nice to say about him. They also haven't done Shite in keeping Randy's legacy and memory alive. Maybe the only musician they haven't treated like garbage is Zakk Wylde but he sucks anyway. You couldn't pay me to go see him anywhere. He can play the Randy stuff but it has no soul and he just shreds the same scales over and over. Sharon and Oz have been rewriting the history from the moment they got rid of Bob and Lee. Like in the 30 years after the Blizzard Doc.. They make it look like Rudy and Tommy were there from the beginning. Not one word or Pic of Bob and Lee. Bob made out OK and got paid for the work he did while Lee ended up freakin bankrupt and having to sell his house. It only took them about 35 years to send him the platinum albums he deserved from the beginning. He did have a heart of gold saying.. it was all Water under the bridge.. In regards to Sharon and Oz. Anyhow, F the Osbourne family.
Solid points.
Wow- this is amazing
I remember this Tour. I had a weak heart. I saw the show and died. Thanks Ozzy 😮😅
I've seen original Black Sabbath and man they sound just like they do on their albums live
Well....I guess im never gonna hear "SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH" the same way ever again.
And good for Ozzy helping that starving dog. I hope he might've, could've gotten him a home after the steak. 🥩
As a life long fan of Ozzy , I’d never heard these interviews before. But I have to say, it’s obvious from the lack of Randy Rhoads being mentioned in the interviews that Ozzy didn’t know he’d meet the greatest musician he’d ever meet, until that offal morning on March 19th 1982 ! And imo probably wouldn’t be where he is now if it weren’t for Randy Rhoads RRR
Ozzy knew what he had, he told Dana Strum and Bob Daisley obviously.
Certainly in some of the interviews Ozzy does not talk much about his band or Randy Rhoads. I think he knew how good he was when he heard Blizzard of ozz and the double and triple tracking Randy overruled him on...
11:11 Ozzy's impression of excited black hotel employee.... pretty good :)
Ozzy is the best man.
no he's not he is lying backstabbing POS
KICK-ASS! Thanks! man
Clean pro shot video footage of Randy Rhoads from the Ozzy NY from the April 29th Rochester show on video would be the Randy Rhoads Holy Grail to package with Bob Daisley’s rehearsal tapes, I’m sure the interviewer at the end was referring to the After Hours tv show degraded footage that got recorded on April 28th of 1981, the day before the show, it had to be a tragic drug fueled oversight on Sharon’s part how little video footage of exists Randy’s magic, Quiet Riot fans had bootleg camera footage from the crowd trained on Randy in the late 70’s for fucks sake!…Hopefully footage re-emerges…🤞🏼
Sharon lucked out but she was a horrible manager on some levels , his death is on her shoulders. And really the lack of footage is a flat out whiff
Best tours ever. I'd say.🤘🏻
Incredibile! How have you got this?
Banned by the mormons 😂 I can see that happening, I live in Utah. Ozzy's got the best stories
Wow, a rare period in his career!
Obviously was still married to Thelma, (remember kids, $haron took Ozzy from his wife and two young children!)
Louis is the little boy on the front cover of Diary of a Madman…that’s Thelma on the back cover, as slumped madman on table.
Hard to like Sharon , truly . However , she did save him from himself , and brought him back from certain death......
This was cool ty
Lee "the sweetest man on earth" Kerslake R.I.P.😥
Diary will never be topped, we got robbed, the third album would have been historic.
Thats so funny him talking about Salt Lake City and being banned from the city , But i saw him in Jan. of 1982 w Randy on the Diary tour . So glad you weren't totally banned Ozzy !!!
"Hammer Horror thing on stage"... that's the DNA of heavy metals success..
I was hoping to hear some mention of Randy Rhoads, but nope.
he did mention Randy and he talked about the band.
Ozzy I realize you had bad press.
Love your music and wish to meet you.
Just wanted to let you know you are a legend.
"Lee is the sweetest man i've ever met".....
whoever makes himself a sheep, the wolf will devour him
Hmmm,ozzy is a bad interview, he tries to stick to a scipt,but cant do it! I saw him do a really good interview with Whoopi Goldberg back when no more tears came out!
Love you guys
Who was the 1st Interviewer? Seems like they were also a Rock Drummer.
No, it’s ‘Crazy’ Chris Tetley, a DJ from the Uk, he interviewed lots of rock bands back in the 80’s, he made interview picture discs, I have this one on LP 👍🏻
Secrets they didn't want people to know! (he was not alone and a Solo Album)
I know Ozzy isn't the most powerful metal vocalist, But Ozzy is the original heavy metal voice, Ozzy has a very unique and haunting voice, And all those great guitarists who worked with Ozzy in his solo career knew it, So they wanted to work with one of the most unique voices in Metal, Not just another typical sounding powerful metal vocalist, They wanted to work with Ozzy, Because he has one of the most iconic and unique voices in music history.
God Bless Ozzy Osbourne
No, God Bless the musicians who propped him up
Wicked stuff
I like how people were concerned about Euros almost 20 years before they existed. Who did the subtitles for this... Ozzy himself?
Haha, dude you try to transcribe Ozzy.
Even I sabbath, the bass player wrote the words and Tony wrote the songs
Would be nice if there was the video
Ozzy was obviously loving the American blow.
The clearest he has even spoken. But it's "rock and roll is my religion and my LAW", not Lord. The captions are wrong.
It’s interesting him talking about his wife Thelma; as obviously Sharon was managing at this point and I’m sure I read that Sharon slept with Randy Rhoads to get back at Ozzy for his infidelity; but given what happened to Randy the timeline here is a little confusing… I could of course be talking a load of rubbish
I thought the same thing.
I’m sure some interesting memoirs might surface, once Ozzy and $haron pass on…
Sharon did sleep with Randy....and yes apparently a revenge ploy.
She is such a lowlife
I think Sharon tried to sleep with almost all of the musicians they had, especially the guitarists.
Sarzo was the one she slept with.
Ozzy was cutting edge. Rock god
You might be surprised, ozzy didn't write his songs or the lyrics ,Bob daisely did and some others like randy ,and Jake e lee
Randy, Bob and Lee was the best band Ozzy ever had.
Anyway amd beyond any ban ozzy played in Salt Lake City back in 1984 then.🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Interesting the second part of the interview is prior to the famous Rochester show and AFTER HOURS< clearly referencing the band as Blizzard of ozz, exposing another lie of the Osbournes.
Ozzy's answer on Lee did not make much sense, wonder why no mention of Bob Daisley
OMG... Such a unique soul and a great man I'd love 2 hear more stories man Ozzy ur the absolute fkn best of the best wow what a legend I'd love 2 just meet u u r my friend the G.O.A.T.... wow the way I wrote this kinda makes me seem like ima stalker and creepy AF and thats why im editing this i love me some ozzman and randy roads ozzys bday is dec 3rd and randys bday is dec 6th of 1956 and my bday is dec 6 1976 anyway just clarifying im not a weirdo lmao

@@nicko808 Do you know IF he was a Rock drummer as well, as I thought I caught a part in the interview with THAT reference between him and Ozzy (talkin about Tommy Aldridge)......POOR ol LEE KERSLAKE 😔...As badazz as a drummer LEE WAS? (WITHOUT the help of having/playing double bass) He just NEVER HAD A FULL ON "CHANCE" as being/STAYING "thee drummer for Ozzy Osbourne.... "I guess?" Aldridge supposedly DID play on Bark at the Moon LP but?... He's MORE known for playing Lee Kerslake's PARTS, OFF those 1st 2 ICONIC OZZY albums...... Lol. ROCK the funk ON 😎. 🤘🔥🤘
Let's not forget randy Rhoads
These tours were great-for music.
Few light bulbs here and thers flashing.
Showbusiness was yes a business based on lies always.
Jake E Lee (probably the best guitarist of the era) got screwed just like all of the master guitarists that Ozzy had.
I'm sure Sharon used Ozzy as well and took him for many millions without him even knowing it while she was Fucking over everyone else.
Ozzy on the best Peruvian marching powder! 😅
Ozzy is flat out lying about Utah, I've seen him here more than once! 😂😂
Who is the interviewer?
🇨🇦👽🎸👍🏼
Wait, Posty didn't make Ozzy famous? 😂
At 3:20 I realized that the "horror thing" Ozzy is talking about doing doesn't come to fruition until Randy dies and he's recording Speak Of The Devil with Tommy, Rudy and *Brad* *Gillis* ..... right now in this interview Randy is alive & breathing and thinking about guitar riffs ,solos, lines & passages...... My God what would have come if that coked out asshole andrew aycock hadn't have killed Randy that day. I'm sad all over again now
it is a sad foreshadowing....people need to realize when these interviews happened Randy was alive.
@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle
I think he was referencing the horror theme on the Speak of the Devil tour and album art. He hung that dwarf with a noose in the European show and the artwork was even more sinister than the Diary of a Madman cover lol. I just thought that was cool that he said "the horror thing"! He definitely carried it out even with Randy gone...
You got to remember Ozzy was not the Superstar of yodsy
Ozzy's speaking very fast. I've got a headache trying to keep up and understand him. He's definitely on coke or speed.
No doubt a blizzard. haha
Nice, but it gives me a headache, Ozzy talks to fast and nervously. I understand him, but ugh. I can't take the no breathing or thinking between questions lol
I think he may have had a bit of a toot of the booga sugar.
what ?
Cocaine snorts Ozzy
Odd that this is years before his physical condition which leads to believe he has a stutter and stammer with Brummie accent. Speech impediment maybe due to chemicals. I care for him nonetheless
He said rock ‘n’ roll is my religion and my law. Lol not Lord.
nice of him to cite Bob's lyrics too bad they never did that song live though setlist would lead one to believe they did twice
First line "love", the others "law".
You just couldn't even get his age right 🤔
I'm a functioning idiot.
who the hell cares....
I surely couldn't care less
Wow, You really really have to be an Ozzy fan to Listen to this whole interview, It's annoying as hell to listen to him talk, Can't understand shit he talks, It gave me a headache on the first two minutes of the interview.🤯😩🙄
This is a lot of bullshit!
