- Ozzy Osbourne and Randy Rhoads are best visually documented in the form of the After Hours filming. Which, as Rudy Sarzo has said, is the best visual for Randy, period! On April the 28th of 1981 the band took stage at the 31 Studios in Ogden, New York. As they performed for this television program on WUHF Channel 31, based out of Rochester, New York.
These four songs that were captured on film, would later go on to be some of the most rare and priceless footage of Ozzy, Randy, Rudy, and Tommy playing live!👌
Thankfully this happened. Ozzy was very lucky to find Randy.
good research on this famous show, which sadly is really one of the few live videos of Randy Rhoads playing live.
Good call out on Lindsey Bridgewater, who did a great job on that tour nor overplaying like DOn did on the Diary tour trying to play to Randy's guitar riffs.
This was an early a.m. show by all accounts except Marty's.
Rudy is a good storyteller and remembers everything well.
This is right before they played 2 shows on may 2 1981 with MOTÖRHEAD at the New York Palladium due to scheduling conflicts they played an 8 and 11 o’clock show on may 2!!!Motorhead kicked some serious Ass!!!!
This was recorded 10 minutes from my house in Ogden! Right off Manitou Road!
That studio still there?
@@EdwardBaggettEdtrader I believe the building is still there but not sure if it is still used as a studio.
After hours is one of the few performances where Randy's tone with his guitars and amps is pure and unadultered. In every live instance, he often used a heavy chorus effect added to his playing. It's the only thing I don't like about his sound. You can hear it a little here and there like in Mr. Crowley on that show but it's largely removed at the soundboard level. A fully remastered, cleaned up version visual and audio would be amazing to own!
Every other live audio has been adultered with EQing after the fact and altering his sound significantly. The Tribute album is a prime example. Listen to the guitar on that and truly compare to After hours and they sound completely different. The After hours performance is my go-to for true Rhoads sound.
It is basically impossible to do a much better version that what we have. As the source materials are limited. It was a small TV News level equipment and tape that were used.
I never actually pictured Rudy Sarzo in a recording studio, because Ozzy had to keep bringing Bob Daisley back to write songs, handle the lyrics & play the Bass on Ozzy’s studio albums.
@4:30 randy looks exhausted ready to fall over.
That pic is from the last gig that randy played, he was dead only 12 hours later😢
