- MAB's "Tribute to Randy" is the complete version of Michael's amazing tribute to guitar great Randy Rhoads. This version was performed live in MAB's studio and is available on Michael's "Performance" DVD available at www.angelo.com. The recorded version of "Tribute to Randy" is available on his "Hands Without Shadows" CD available at www.angelo.com
Michael performed some of Randy's most famous solos in "Tribute to Randy" using a completely different approach and techniques. Randy Rhoads used tapping extensively in many of the solo sections, whereas Michael choose to use "sweep" arpeggios to re create the magic of Randy's music. Michael wanted to pay homage and respect to one of the greatest Metal Guitarists of all time - Randy Rhoads, with this tribute. Enjoy!
Michael used a Marshall "combo" amp with 2, 12's to achieve his sound. His Marshall stacks were used as props for the video.

Soy tu fans numero 1 de Argentina🙋
insted of tapping using the edge of the pick MAB used the sweeping method. The sweeping sounds better and refined i can hear every note
He even likes comments and posts !!!wow
Respect 🙏🏻
This might be the beer but every time I drink I listen to this and I want to cry. Cheers 🍻
all that talent and the guy never has a bad word to say about anybody.
Things are great, why be negative towards anyone? Thank you 🤘
i love it that this video is already 10 yrs old yet he still takes the time to reply to comments as much as he can! rock on Michael!
@@misteri09 Talk about a class act huh? Amazing talent but an even more amazing human being!!!
@@MichaelAngeloBatioOfficial love your speed kills vids, I have been going back to them since I started playing back in the early 80's.
@@MichaelAngeloBatioOfficial i like your attitude and your passion
"I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it. - Marty McFly
Bravo
ScareCro just epic
ScareCro i'm a 13 year old myself, I never got infected by "Despacitis," "Jake Paul's City is England's Disease," "Lil Uzi Syndrome," or some other shit, but I love metal more than a man loves his own money.
No dude kids now a days listen to the shit which goes by the name of BIEBER and ONE D !!!! good old rock and roll is done and dusted sadly...
You missed the quotation mark 😋
Thanks for stopping by to check out the video! Be sure you like & subscribe to see more from me!
Randy would be proud of that lick at 1:20
first time of my life listen with no delay thanks
Sos un ídolo la verdad inspiración para muchos agradecería tu saludos se lo aprecia
If thou dont sheddeth at least 1 tear from this video, you're no musician.
Your awesome
Everyone talks about Michael's speed, articulation, and sweeping skills because he IS great; but you have to bow to his Monster Vibrato... there is some INCREDIBLE string shaking going on here!!!
He's better than Randy
Technique-wise yes. Musically there's no comparison, Randy was note for note one of the most soulful players.
@@johnmcintosh7784 not even fucking close. randys worst song. (which he doesnt have a bad one) is better than anything michael has ever done. Playing faster doesnt make you faster even though randy could play fast like no one else.
His right hand picking control is insane.
He's mastered his craft over the years
He was a lefty guitarist but in his childhood there was no lefty guitars so he brought up with righty guitars and his right hand is locked
he's insane enough to shredd on a Quad-Guitar 😆
There is a video by Troy Grady on it. Grady explains it very well and gets the legend to demo it. If you haven't watched it go and just do it now.
And don't forget that he is left handed ;-)
the cleanest sweep picking in the world!
Hi Frank Gambale!
Yeahright he sucks
Frank gambale
No one replied to this with names because it’s true. One of the best “sHrEdDeRs” of all time.
Ricardo Costa right, like too clean lol and his alternate picked runs are ridiculous. He’s broken speed records and didn’t even know it. Meanwhile people are playing “flight of the bumblebee” at 700bpm and calling it the world record lol.
Batio is so freaking badass on so many levels. It doesn't seem to be humanly possible to do what he makes look easy.
Michael Angelo Batio: One of the best guitar shredder in history of Rock. Always amaze me.
Met him in person when he came to Trinidad and had a guitar clinic. Had dinner with him along with the people who organized the clinic ! He is so humble and down to earth. A lot of musicians with their pompous ego could take a page from his book.
Saw a interview where he said he learned guitar to annoy his sister, growing up. I'll take that any day over the great rock-star mythologies people try to weave. He's real. I do wish he'd leave the over the neck type gimmickry alone; just playing orthodox kick-ass hard rock guitar, he's a beast.
I went to one of his clinics and he was a total dick, ignored a lot of people's questions and was a condescending prick. hahahaha Just kidding just as you said he was friendly and patient with players of all levels. Awesome guy, wish I coulda had dinner with him. I watched Ozzy and Jake E. Lee eating fried chicken before the show, it was kinda funny till other people came around and started yelling shit at them and ruined it. Dicks.
Oh Gorm... yuh coulda big up Shyam (the people who organised the clinic ).
i agree, the hand flipping thing needs to stop .....
Then why in the world is his URL for sale?
If I had just 1% of your talent I’d be happy as all hell!
Thank you Rahl!
you have it
@Nicola Lacirignola ㅋㅋㅋㅋ me 24%, i'm not happy either
You got to understand that there is is not talent only pracitice!!!! :)
@@stefsss66 That is incorrect.That's like saying anyone can break the world record for weight lifting with enough practice, or anyone can beat the fastest man in the world if he runs a lot, or anyone can do math like Einstein. No, it doesn't work like that.
I've been playing guitar for over 40 years (delta blues, classic rock, very little neo-classical). I don't think I've ever seen this level of technical mastery combined with this level of intensity. I was genuinely scared at several points because it was like watching a nuclear reactor going off close-up. The enemy of great playing is getting too excited while doing it, yet that excitement still has to be present to convey the emotional content. It's a genuine understatement to say that most people have never experienced this level of intensity at any moment of their lives, let alone have the ability to switch it on like this (and somehow live with this nuclear reactor inside the rest of the time as if some ordinary mortal). Much Respect.
i had that level of intensity with your mother last night
Pretty much..yeah
It has to be a helluva comedown for him when he stops, and pretty nerve wracking if he ever wants to turn it off but he can't...like if he's trying to sleep or something and his mind is still racing thinking of notes and riffs
I don't think other skills like woodworking or computer programming have as much room for mastery as guitar does...pulled those examples out of my ass so I could be wrong, but I can't really see there being a Michael Angelo batio of fishing lol
Michael is so mind-blowingly good. That Mr Crowley was a piece of art.
After watching this.. i looked at my guitar and my guitar laughed at me..
RIP Randy Rhoads.. and thanks to you Sir. Michael Angelo..
This comment is hillarious 😂
3:24 "You've achieved high score!"
*mario flag pole noise*
@@MichaelAngeloBatioOfficial Priceless - I laughed my ass off.
I think super mario score was written by MAB
*super MABIO
@@angadgianirogers1844 That would be a pretty awesome rendition of Super Mario, I would LOVE to see that!
Randy and MAB, they were both born in 1956…I could only imagine if Randy were still alive…he would have been same age with MAB. Randy you will be missed forever my guitar hero. Thanks a lot Michael for this amazing tribute.
I didnt know abt this..i thought randy was like a father-figure or teacher-figure to MAB, as in the age differences.. didnt know they are at the same age!
I met MAB after a guitar clinic at Rochester's House of Guitars. He was friends with my now ex-wife. So Michael, the ex, my 2 youngest son's (16 and 14 at the time) and the 16 year son's buddy all hung out afterwards and later went to dinner. After he finished his set walking to the "green" room back stage he asked me what I thought ( of course I knew of him since OFr Nitro days) and I stopped walking, put my arm around his shoulders, looked him in eye and told him he had no technique. LOL. He was gracious, interesting, funny and kind. He regailed us with awesome about EVH, Uli Roth, Shemker and a slew of greats and his contemporaries. Fascinating, humble and witty. Stellar musician and incredible human being!
Nice! Randy is applauding in Heaven! R.I.P. Mr. Rhoads - Gone but not forgotten!
+Raul Martinez He sure is. Total legend
sleeping dogs
Gone but not forgotten
how would you know that for certain-- applauding in heaven?
Unfortunately he is in hell, no way he is in heaven. The last song is called Mr Crowley which is a tribute to Alister crowley who was the founder of satanism who is an idol to most of the musicians in the music industry.
When you watch this in Japan, his fingers are blurred out.
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
damn you!...i now have to buy a new computer, spat out my coffee all over it, when i read that.
@Philip Holmes Because they're penises
Philip Holmes its a porn bruuh
Lol love your racism
Its not only your playing... but your sound man, makes my mind crazy!!!
I really appreciate that Alek! Thank you for the thoughtful comment.
@@MichaelAngeloBatioOfficiali am your fan.
The guy is a guitar master! The great thing is He’s so talented and doesn’t appear to have a giant ego. Much respect and awe go out to him! A true pro!
Dude I still remember, back in 2010, when I first watched this video. I was 15, starting to play the electric guitar. I wanted to be able to play like that man. Today, at 25 years of age, I managed to play on live television, I have an album on Spotify and played in many gigs.
Michael man, I used to study using your Metal Method videos. I am so grateful. I aspire now not to have your splendid technique anymore, but to be as a professional, charismatic and energetic human being as you are.
Thank you so much.
Sounds like an awesome journey man!
Hopefully you can take some time to answer a guitar question of mine. But how do I get faster at playing? Do I just need to play a riff a million times until I can play it lightning fast? Or is there some technique/exercise I can use to help me get faster?
Thanks man, and keep on rocking 🤘
Good for you man
Jesus dude simmer down
@@EricGames117 That has worked for me in mastering scales and some songs. So I would say try it, but everyone is different.
@@EricGames117 Metronome
I can clearly hear every note,insanely fast,and extremely clean,not everybody can do that👌
Never gets tired listening to this masterpiece One of my fav solo insturmental of all time.. from PH🔥🔥🔥
This man is incredible!!!!❤️👍🤠👍
For this video Michael used a Marshall "combo" amp with 2, 12's to achieve his sound. His Marshall stacks were used as props for the video. Thanks!
+MichaelAngeloBatioOfficial sounds amazing!
Whatever he used, he used it wisely.
Awesome !
Cheers and rock on \m/ \m/
what guitar, a schector?
***** dean
MichaelAngeloBatioOfficial THE MANN!!!
so.. ... ...clean....
just found out about the greatest guitarist of all time. got chills
Thanks!
god damn Michael's tone here is to die for, just like Randy's!
Randy smiles from Heaven whenever he hears this masterful, soulful tribute. Loved how you took a half beat out of Crazy Train at the end, that was awesome.
He removed that half beat, didn't he? I noticed that too. MAB shreds this tribute to the legendary Randy Rhoads.
Long live Randy Rhoads.
Thank you Tom!!!
@@MichaelAngeloBatioOfficial Thank YOU brother! I'm 46 now and I've followed you since I was a teen in the 80s, it's such a privilege to connect with you! GOD BLESS YOU, my man!
I walked in to Mary's Music in Clarksville, Tennessee, one day back in 1991, not knowing that Michael was there doing a clinic. He was in the middle of doing the 'over / under' technique and I had to do a double take to make sure my eyes were not tricking me. It was a true WTF moment, and I've been a fan ever since!
Mr. Michael. You are one of the best guitarists that have ever existed and not only that, I've seen you in live streams and interviews and you are a great person.
Thank you for sharing your talent and vibes.
Greetings from México!
Can't stop listening. Perfect playing and colorful sound. Bravo Maestro Michael!
Yet to find a video where MAB misses any single note! How can anyone be this perfect?!!
It's the champion mindset he has. To this day, he plays with the intention of continuously getting better
Sarthak Mohanty he is not a Man, he is an Alien sent to Earth to male guitarists look bad
He certainly makes Yngwie sound extremely sloppy, especially in terms if timing.
gvcc
35 years and more of playing guitars
you are amazing. you are one of by biggest inspirations for learning guitar. probably the best sweep picker ever
I am glad I can inspire you!
Probably the best alternate picker ever too. Utterly insane level of technical skill.
Nothing i can say would explain how awesome this is, nothing,. You heard it !!!! We need a emoji bowing down to the almighty Randy Rhoades, im just glad i was alive and got to see him live twice in one year
This was posted 12 years ago and I still get goosebumps listening to this maestro on guitar.
One of the sickest things I've ever seen.
It's crystal clear, this guy is amazing, it's a pleasure for the ears.
never heard a sound so sweet. easily the best heavy metal tone ever.
Been listening to this since 2010 and never got enough 🤘🤘🤘
Thanks for sticking around! Glad you enjoy the track.
@@MichaelAngeloBatioOfficial Enjoy it? I love it, so energetic and vital, the arpeggios, the sweeps, it's awesome. I'm a very big fan 🤘
Jeez is it 10 years gone already?! Missed my Tea again.🤔
Dm really is the saddest key only because of Randy's work on Mr. Crowley. MAB, you have done it again.
It is a pleasure to watch a true master of the instrument. Just watch his picking hand. There is no wasted motion and it is as efficient as one can get. He makes it look easy. There are only a few people with these skills, but it's not even really about that. It his obvious love and passion that make him such a great musician. Liked and subbed.
O guitarrista com a técnica mais perfeita que eu já vi.
Obrigado pelas boas palavras! Você é demais!
Best Guitar player in the world.
Thanks James!
@@MichaelAngeloBatioOfficial i am from indonesia... Fans MAB.. 😁
Best shredder
@@MichaelAngeloBatioOfficial best guitaris 😊
Yes he’s awesome, crazy stuff I’ve seen
MAB has easily the best Guitar Sound of all the guys out there
I've only really seen MAB in the context of his double neck dual playing, which while interesting, I didn't really get into that much as far as wanting to listen to it. But holy shit I did not realize how amazing this guy is. That was simply incredible, not what I expected. Tasteful, perfect, impossibly clean and precise, and just a brilliant tribute.
Michael is probably the most humble guitarist who knows his discipline really well. I love him so much♥️♥️♥️♥️
2021 still watching... rock on!!!!
Not even one single fucking note missed!
I could hear this for the rest of my life...
of course not a single note was missed...this was recorded in a studio....
João Matos what about 5:27
I don't comment a lot on videos, but as a lifetime fan of rock 'n roll I believe MAB deserves some credit. His tributes of various artists, especially this one for Randy, really speak to me. The discussion of who is the greatest guitar player, or greatest whatever, will always be a subjective one. Regardless, in my own personal opinion, MAB has to be right up there with the greats and definitely one of the best all out shredders I've ever heard.
+Ben Dorn I agree
True 👍 he is so underrated ...
In interviews MAB has said that that seeing Randy live in Chicago really inspired him to develop his classical side.
Exactly! And when he shreds he knows exactly what he's doing, and what I love about MAB is that he takes a famous riff, like in this video, and improvises in the same scale that exact riff is written in. Ok that didn't make much sense. The part at 03:05 is what I'm talking about.
What distinguishes MAB amongst the guitar gods is his flat phrasing, his often disconnected ends of ideas, like what are you trying to say with this flawless admirable technique.
God that Mr. Crowley solo version was just euphoric! The Classical aspects in that song just set such an amazing mood to the whole piece, it’s incredibly beautiful.
I have just become the biggest fan of this phenomenal man < 3
God i love you and your playing . Randy is one of my only favourite people in this world , and i think you are in my list now !!!
He adds some emotion to this solo during the sweeps, most people just hit the notes.
I played this video twice then three times in my head ;)
Crazy Train, Mr Crowley. Above and beyond, just the basic day in the life for Mick Batio, so swift
Wonderful just to watch anyone that is a master of their craft at work. This gentleman is certainly that.
Absolutely incredible. I just relived the 1980s and I wish I could go back and relive those years again. Awesome job.
My man. My dude.
That was simply amazing. Those pinch harmonics are simply gorgeous. Randy would be so proud of you. Keep it on, Michael!🤘🏻
Thanks! Randy was the man!
Somewhere in Japan, there's a 4 year old saying "I've been playing like that for the past 5 years."
Not possible.
Not in this case.
Not in this life.
Then if its true whats his/her guitar level now?
Ahhhha ahhhhh ahhhhhhh
Appreciate the speed and interpretation - Michael Angelo is without a doubt one of the greatest and gifted guitarist - Still, as clean, crisp and fast as some of these sound - Randy's feeling, time and attention to each note can be missed in contrast... I applaud Michael for paying tribute to probably the best guitarist that caught our ear back in the 80's - thanks for this I enjoyed it
I can imagine an enormous smile on Randy Rhoads face.
the mr. crowley part gives my chills every time :)
absolutely
+James Edwards which part is that?
+SwedenMetaFan you damn right sir
legitimate goosebumps every single time
Couldn't agree more! And I play Mr. Crowley at my weekly gigs, and it still hits me everytime!
4:58 That is just gorgeous!
I love watching him play. So, so remarkable. Dude deserves every single bit of success and admiration.
There is more talent here than my brain can comprehend. Bravo to this wonderful tribute! I love it!
Michel Angelo you have no idea on how much you’ve helped me , your lessons on how to sweep pick and just the way you play is encouraging to keep
Practicing and get better and better , thank you - Parker
When Michael Angelo plays solos better than you with his hand over the neck.
And he can do it with both hands on 2 necks at the same time with his arms crossed. I found his album and Vinnie Moore's about the same time and I was listening to it on the way home and decided... Ok just fuck it, I'm going home and burning my guitar. Luckily my house was about an hours ride from the record store and I got over it and was properly inspired by then, still felt like crap though. I'll never be that good, I said, here it is about 30-31 years later and though I got a lot better he still makes me shake my head and say. But how the fuck? lol
Chuchi 98 I can do that too...
*IF I'M MICHAEL ANGELO BATIO*
He may be more technically proficient, there's a certain magic in the way Randy played them originally. He seems to try to capture that but fucks it up. I think he's great, but some things are better left as they are.
:(
i quit
you sir are definetly one of the best guitar players ever
After watching this video again( I guess for the 600th time now), I have some feelings I'd like to share, especially knowing that Mr. Batio is reading all of these comments:
I've been following you since I was 15. I am 26 now, and most of my guitar playing( the picking stance and your style of bends which you've explained in countless tutorials), have your influence in them.
More importantly, you have influenced my life as a person, making me better, helping me realise that humanity shouldn't be forgotten no matter what success levels you reach.
You sir, are a genuis at mind, and a loving, respectful person at heart, and A GOD of music. Thank you for existing, and thank you for influencing people like me with your dedication and humbleness.
I still feel shock and awe while watching your videos. Wish you a long, healthy life, full of shredds and even more guitars!
One thing this dude has in common with Randy... He's great AND humble. Best possible combo. **Hats Off**
A great guitar player paying homage to a very great and influential guitar player. I love the quad-guitar MAB plays on Nitro's Freight Train music video. Both Rhoads and Batio deserve the respect of the Metal Nation.
I still keep returning to this song 13 years later whenever I feel down. It brings back all that energy life needs. They say there will never be anyone as Randy again, But the same goes for Michael.
Michael, you engraved your name in the history of rock and metal. Generations and generations will remember you. Living legend!
With Michael there's no doubt. A real guitar player.
this man is a beast. no wonder he has 2 world records
What are they?
Forever Randy RHOADS!!
I take this as a huge compliment to Randy.
I just cant understand how he is able to get such clean and amazing sound. It is just.....amazing, really an inspiration to keep on practicing!! excellent!
i can feel the heart and soul of Mike for R.R! best of the best!!
This performance is beyond impressive and beautiful. Thank you Mister Michael Angelo for sharing your passion and being a great teacher at the same time. It is inspiring !
It's crazy and baffles me to see channels with folks sitting there and just reacting to other's works and have 200k-300k subs! while this legendary genius has less than 100k subs?!? That's just foul
🤘God bless you 🖤RIP Mozart of lead guitar Randy Rhoads🖤
The efficiency of his right picking hand is amazing with very minimal movement...just awesome!
In loving memory of Randy Rhoads
If Randy were still alive and playing THIS IS WHAT IT WOULD SOUND LIKE!!! Michael you are a LEGEND for this... Randy is my favorite guitarist of all time. I studied his solos more than any other... This a gift! Thank you Michael Anglo!
This is MAB in his absolute prime. The cleanest, fastest and most in the pocket playing that I've seen of his out of any video so far. Rhoads brought out the primal focus in Michael!
Really beautiful tribute to Randy. Never thought I would hear new solos that perfectly capture Randy's style while adding that Michaelangelo flair. Your love of the source material really comes through. Thanks for making my night with this jam.
This version is really good and I've listened to it countless times. There's another cover of Mr Crowley that's maybe a bit better. It's by Oziel Zinho, I think he's Brazilian.
ua-cam.com/video/EKhn9VJk9jE/v-deo.html
I saw him live in 1990 with "Nitro" I was absolutely completely blown away and was surprised . Being a bass player.... I listened to nitro and thought... "there is no way" so I went to see him live with the rest of my musician friends.. and i will tell you.. there is nothing fake about what this guy can do. TO describe Nitro, (his band @ that time) they had the longest hair, the craziest show, the best musicians there were. The drummer was incredible, the bass player was incredible, the singer was incredible and then there is mike... check out his old band.... they take extreme to the extreme of extreme and then make that extreme.
jerramie davieau wow!
Bobby is a killer drummer, i saw Him at a clinic in 1992 in a damn music store
Best guitarist on the planet by a country mile. And one of the nicest people you could ever want to meet. Peace and best wishes from Liverpool uk
No dude . Check paco de lucia on youtube ... xD
This man born humble and very nice person. Being a legend is just a bonus.
I got my first guitar in 1964 and was playing lead in a band just a few years after that to this day I do not have the skill and mastery by any measure. As Mr Batio has said many times, it is all about focus, dedication to the task and practice , practice and more practice. Thank you for the inspiration.
I believe this to be the most impressive guitar performance I have EVER seen anywhere! This so incredible - playing ultra clean!
Cant think of a more patient Teacher than MAB. Love all your music.
Higher Than All...How Many People Were Amazed After Watch and Listen Your Music...LEGEND
Randy+Batio = SUBLIME
I didn't know that you can play single neck guitar :O
Yes! 🤘
This is just so mindbogglingly good performance and interpreted. Omg the skill of Michael Batio is insane!! And on top of that such a great person!!!!!!! Michael you rock!!!
good job 1983 lives on ! Randy Rip !
2:06 to 2:48...... It's like my ears are having an orgy! and they are thanking me every time I replay it.... It's like the sound of angels weeping. So beautiful it reduces me to tears :')
It just never gets old listening to this, so amazing...
Michael is the Most talented and well rounded guitarist to ever live.
