I was at the April 15th, 1982 show in Ft. Wayne, IN. UFO opened up for him. Brad Gillis was on guitar. Great Rock and Roll memories! I first saw Ozzy in Ft. Wayne on Aug. 27, 1981. I was blessed to have seen Randy and some new band from England called Def Leppard... lol.
@@vaekkriinhart4347yet somehow has made a career out of it, playing and recording with the largest names in rock, yet you shit on him because YOU don’t like his style. Where’s the link to your video on here showing us how a proper drum solo is done? Maybe link us the one where you’re playing in Rio in front of that giant crowd, or Donnington. I mean you’re so good you had to be playing with someone famous right? Carmine is this you?
He's the best. Seen him 20 times his vocals are off the chart. He's a legend and still alive pleasing his fans. Let some one else sing it never gonna happen. Stop being negative to a absolute treasure to heavy metal. Love you ozzy
I was fortunate to see this show in Oakland, CA. Brad did a tremendous job of filling some really big shoes in record time. He stayed true to the iconic parts while still infusing his own style. No mere feat, but he did in in style. Amazing.
I agree, but one thing to point out is his tone is also very similar to Randys, that makes him fit like a glove. You can tell its not Randy with the playing, but the tone could trick some people ;-) Good stuff.
@@benoitbastien1915 😳 unimaginable my friend but all things considered he did a great job 👍🏽Randy had BIG shoes to fill , and now I'm afraid were losing the Ozman himself 😔 when Ozzy leaves us it will be a sad day for music 🇺🇸🦅💪🏽
@@benoitbastien1915 yeah, Vinnie Vincent did the same, replacing Ace Frehley in KISS in 82/ 83.. Big shoes to fill. Ace was no Randy Rhoads, but he was adored by fans.. Vinnie did an awesome job, too, like Brad Gillis.. Lots of pressure
I was lucky enough to see Ozzy with Randy Rhodes shortly before his death on The Diary of a Madman Tour, what a great show and I've seen Ozzy several times over the years and it has always been a great show.
I too saw the diary tour before this at the San Francisco cow palace with Rose tattoo opening ,and I've seen both of the first 2 van Halen tours1 at the Oakland coliseum,at the day on the green,Green, no body could ever hold a candle to as amazing as Randy was and still enthralling as he was thar night Will always remain the pinnacle of showmanship,and musicianship I will ever probably and I thank God for that most priceless gift I've ever been blessed to have witnessed and Randy was a conductor as the right hand of god !but I loved how Gillis did symptoms of the universe,with a little added personal bit that was not in the orig.
I also saw this tour one of the greatest live shows ever still got my tour shirt after seeing my idol tommy play his solo that proves he's one of the best drummer live to see
I saw this show in MD. I remember sitting in my car in the High School parking lot when I heard the news about Randy. I was so bummed not being able to see him but Brad did a great job and his guitar tone was outstanding. What a great decade for Metal/Rock music.
BIG SHOES TO FILL...BRAD GILLIS SHOWED WHAT A BEAST HE WAS TO BECOME IN THE NEXT GIG. AWESOME JOB. I'VE ALWAYS LOVED "GOOD BYE TO ROMANCE" BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN. R.I.P. RANDY ⚘😪
He just whammied it. Which was disrespectful cause Randy just died. Randy played so precise and so clear. Brad just dive bombs everything. You gotta be a guitar player to understand the difference......why you think Brad just lasted less than a year? Jake e lee was WAAAAAAAAY better
@@jerrywilliamson8372 I don't know if Brad did anything disrespectful, he kind of stayed true to that style of play which I don't care for. He also had limited time to learn all of the songs so I give him credit for that. What was disrespectful in my opinion was the fact that they had that tour at all. I am am sure that fat ass, tone deaf, drug addled idiot Ozzy needed to pay his dealers though, so the show goes on.
@@jerrywilliamson8372 you are wrong in every single way. If he perfectly mimicked Randy, THAT would be disrespectful. He didn’t stay because he had a little band called Night Ranger that had already recorded its debut album. Get your facts right.
@@jerrywilliamson8372 I really felt like the whammy, and dives are his "way out" because he couldn't play the solo correct. So he did what he knew. If that makes any sense?
Man I thought the same thing but as a drummer that toured a little but, it's possible that his personal kit got hung up in travel or something?.. that's more of a question I guess than an answer but I've had that happen on a MUCH smaller scale lol
@@txtamaman I did some small scale touring, and shit was always lost/damaged/late. I traveled with my snare and bass drum pedal with me at all times, so if I got stuck playing on someone else's kit, I at least had the feel of my own gear at the center
He was on Sonor all through the Pat Travers and Gary Moore period through this tour. I don't think he was on Yamaha until the US Festival in '83. Could have been playing them on the earlier '83 tour with Jake but I think it was the white one shown here.
@@neonknight-1522 I know some good drummers. George Kollias, Terry Bozzio, Marco Minnemann, Thomas Lang, Gene Hoglan, Sean Reinert, Chad Smith, Dave Weckl, Steve Gadd, Vinnie Colaiuta, Dennis Chambers, Simon Phillips, Jojo Mayer, Derek Roddy, Virgil Donati, Mike Mangini, Mike Portnoy to only name some... but Buddy was the best.
saw this show in El Paso. Had a friend working it, so I got to see Ozzy get in the chair on top of the tower and watched it spin him around fast as hell so it looked like he just appeared after the flash to distract the crowd.
Saw this tour in Buffalo at the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium. One of the best stage shows I ever saw and I have been to well over 100 concerts. Only thing missing was Randy even though Brad Gillis did an amazing job, he's not Randy.
Ozzy 🤟 and will miss you and the band and I wish I could be there to see you in person and the band if you could send me a ticket to see you back stage 😁 and the band and Iron man is my favorite song with good bye to romans you all rock hard 🤪🤪🤪 crazy train I love all your songs 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙 love you all very much !
actually speak of the devil is my favorite ozzy album of all time, i remembr my aunt had blizzard, and diary but i remembr looking at the album cover as a child and being scared s***less but def a huge influance for a 4-6 yr old.....
Amazing how Brad filled those Giant shoes of Randy's... R.I.P. Randy... I have to say that I think it would be pretty cool if Brad Gillis and Ozzy got together to do at least one album or even an EP of some new songs... just because.. Also, I read in an interview years ago that Ozzy said that He would have kept Brad as his guitarist if He didn't go back to Night Ranger.
Yeah, Brad was offered the job and has never talked about why he left other than saying he wanted to back to Night Ranger as they were getting a recording contract. There was always speculation that it was because Ozzy wasn't in a good place over Randy's death and/or Sharon being a horrible person....but I'd say whatever the reason he made the right choice because look what they did to Jake E. Lee!
And been a total drunk delivering pizza for a living , if wasn't for cutthroat souless Sharon steering him and hiring great talent to make him what he is .
Brad really did do an amazing job..... and he was grilled by the fans for it so much..... Brad had 2 days to learn 18 songs before going to the audition.... can you imagine trying to fill Randy's shoes with 2 days of prep for 18 songs and then maybe 3 weeks of prep time before going on the road? .. that must have felt awful.. I'm gonna edit this comment just a little..Randy's solo on this song brings me to tears every time
Haven't people figured out by now that Ozzy is not a singer lol he is a frontman there is a difference.. one being the fact that they can't sing but hes an entertainer.
@@GidDree In this context, overdubbed means "recorded later on." The basic definition is "adding a recorded part ON TOP OF an EXISTING recording." In this particular case, Ozzy sang the vocals later on in the studio. Most likely, the audio from this live show was recorded on a large mixing console, and they played back the music WITHOUT Ozzy's original vocals in a studio where he "took his time" and recorded a vocal take (or several takes) without making any mistakes. It's a pretty good bet that if you were in the audience when this show was recorded, Ozzy didn't sound this good. It has been widely admitted for many years that all the vocals on the Speak Of The Devil album were overdubbed (aka: "fixed" at a later date). If you listen carefully to his voice during the singing parts and compare them to the parts where he calls out to the crowd "Let me hear you!" or "Let me see your hands!" you'll notice that the vocals sound quite different. It doesn't mean that the album sucks or anything. Ozzy has personally stated that he hates the album, but I love it. Nobody wants to put out a product that sucks, so they improve it any way they can sometimes. It's why "bootleg" albums sound like crap & don't sell well... they're more of a raw performance and not a glossy studio production. This album is what I'd consider a hybrid; not a true live performance, but not strictly a studio album either.
@@GidDree It's not overdubbing.. if anything ozzy is singing with a lot of reverb on his vocals or possibly even reverb with a little bit of delay mixed in.. i could be inaccurate too but this is def not overdubbed i would confidently bet money on that lol. What hes probably refering too is the fact that Ozzy is using the reverb effect as he sings. A lot of singers use it just like guitar players do. You hear how it sounds when ozzy sings and his voice sounds echoy/spacious/big sounding and when he sings it's lasting longer and sounds more open and broader? Thats because hes using reverb and hes using it almost as a crutch and helps his vocal performance sound more full making it harder to hear his flaud singing Because Ozzy is notorious for trying to sing and his voice cracking up you can see it happen to him in so many performances from back then and even now. Overdubbing is a total different technique. Overdubbing is used when the singer has a vocal track that's pre recorded and playing through the PA system and the singer is singing along to the overdubbed recording or sometimes lip syncing to the overdubbed vocals playing giving the illusion that hes singing when hes actually not and what the crowd hears is the pre recorded overdubbed vocals which is not happening in this performance. So that guy who commented that his vocals are being overdubbed is incorrect. Overdubbing is also done in the studio after the live performance to make it sound better like the other dude mentioned in the comment above me.. but this is totally live, in the moment as Ozzys live singing, no overdubbing.
@@markcheetah4960 Even if you're trying to say this is an overdubbed performance he still sucks in this performance too And why would they go out of their way to overdub and correct it just to make him still sound like crap? lol I highly doubt this is an overdubbed performance.
Obviously this was overdubbed in the studio after the live performance. The vocal is far too perfect to have come from Ozzy's performance you see here.
Brad did such a great job here. Followed the jest of it all the best he could. Not note for note Randy style. Only had a few days to figure out the structure.
Yes Max Norman , his producer has said Ozzy went in and redid the entire vocals for this show . I think it's safe to say Ozzy didn;t sound too great lol or would have been no need for this .
Never knew they did "Band Jam" with Brad. Thought it was only done with Randy. Really makes me sad they must have a full recorded show with Randy but won't show it for whatever reason.
*_I know one thing I don't know how the hell _**_-O-_**_ _**_-Z-_**_ _**_-Z-_**_ _**_-Y-_**_ isn't ballin his eyes out while singing goodbye to romance._*
So....Nobody's gonna mention the dude hanging from the noose above the stage the whole time???😂😂😂😂😂😂. Seriously, though, Ozzy sounds amazing as well as the band...Aldridge is a monster.
Randy was not interested in recording an album of Sabbath songs, Sharon and Ozzy being so insistant that Randy told them he wanted to leave the band. But then the tradgedy. Sharon has always known how to fuck up bands.
Changing the guitar solo in Goodbye to Romance is like changing the lyrics. Brad Gillis could have learned that in 5 minutes he is an amazing guitarist and it’s such an emotionally contextual solo he shouldn’t have tried to better it, it’s not possible.
I thought Brad did a KILLER job filling in for Randy!! Speak of the devil will be always one of my faves!! BUT WHY IN THE FUCK DIDN'T SHARON AND OZZY TAPE A LIVE SHOW/ VIDEO WITH RHOADS??????
@@christheghostwriter I think there's more to it than that, where do the royalties go to for example? To the surviving members of Randy's family? They must have had money from blizzard and diary album sales
@@paulpearson1180 based on my experiences as an on again off again professional musician who did a few recording projects over the years and stage managed a touring live act, I stand by the idea that they didn't have much money in those first few years. It's a whole different world now, when people can make albums on laptops. Back then it cost a FORTUNE to make albums. Studio time was expensive in those days, and it took a long time and cost a lot of money to make a record. In addition to the studio time, they also had to pay Max Norman a salary to produce. And they had to book rehearsal studios, find musicians, hire musicians, transport musicians, provide lodging for musicians, pay musicians for writing sessions, pay them for studio sessions, pay them for live shows, deal with food and per diems, rent expensive buses and buy expensive plane tickets, build stage sets, transport stage sets, book hotel rooms, have stage costumes made, and on and on and on. This was all just to get the thing off the ground so Ozzy could tour to support the first album. In early 80s circumstances, I bet they were a couple hundred grand in debt (at a minimum) when he launched his solo touring career. And the record companies took most of the money from record sales in those days. Even if Ozzy got fronted a bunch of money from the record companies, artists are often in debt to record labels for years, depending on how much it cost them to make their albums. I doubt Ozzy and Sharon were really rolling in dough until a decade or so into his solo career. I'm pretty confident that, if they could have afforded to do an extensive pro-shot multi-camera video/film or do multitrack audio recordings of either of those tours, they would have. That stuff was also a lot more expensive back in the day.
@@christheghostwriter I would say by 86 they were doing just fine. The Ultimate Sin tour was filmed for home video / pay TV release (I seem to recall HBO showing it back in the day). Plus every album up to that point had hit Platinum or better. Also Sharon's a savvy (not to mention cutthroat) business person so I doubt they were living off food stamps. But yeah everyone takes it for granted these days with having the equivalent of a high end camcorder in every phone. Back in the day it was a big expensive deal to have a show pro-shot.
Of all the rock and roll deaths I think Randy Rhodes is the one that hit me the hardest, it still brings tears to my eyes ....RR forever 🤘
Rudy Sarzo. Amazing player and a really nice guy too.
Simply Wonderful! 🙏✌️🤘🎸

It's a pretty good bet that if you were in the audience when this show was recorded, Ozzy didn't sound this good. It has been widely admitted for many years that all the vocals on the Speak Of The Devil album were overdubbed (aka: "fixed" at a later date).
If you listen carefully to his voice during the singing parts and compare them to the parts where he calls out to the crowd "Let me hear you!" or "Let me see your hands!" you'll notice that the vocals sound quite different.
It doesn't mean that the album sucks or anything. Ozzy has personally stated that he hates the album, but I love it. Nobody wants to put out a product that sucks, so they improve it any way they can sometimes. It's why "bootleg" albums sound like crap & don't sell well... they're more of a raw performance and not a glossy studio production. This album is what I'd consider a hybrid; not a true live performance, but not strictly a studio album either.
@@GidDree It's not overdubbing.. if anything ozzy is singing with a lot of reverb on his vocals or possibly even reverb with a little bit of delay mixed in.. i could be inaccurate too but this is def not overdubbed i would confidently bet money on that lol. What hes probably refering too is the fact that Ozzy is using the reverb effect as he sings. A lot of singers use it just like guitar players do. You hear how it sounds when ozzy sings and his voice sounds echoy/spacious/big sounding and when he sings it's lasting longer and sounds more open and broader? Thats because hes using reverb and hes using it almost as a crutch and helps his vocal performance sound more full making it harder to hear his flaud singing Because Ozzy is notorious for trying to sing and his voice cracking up you can see it happen to him in so many performances from back then and even now. Overdubbing is a total different technique. Overdubbing is used when the singer has a vocal track that's pre recorded and playing through the PA system and the singer is singing along to the overdubbed recording or sometimes lip syncing to the overdubbed vocals playing giving the illusion that hes singing when hes actually not and what the crowd hears is the pre recorded overdubbed vocals which is not happening in this performance. So that guy who commented that his vocals are being overdubbed is incorrect. Overdubbing is also done in the studio after the live performance to make it sound better like the other dude mentioned in the comment above me.. but this is totally live, in the moment as Ozzys live singing, no overdubbing.
@@markcheetah4960 Even if you're trying to say this is an overdubbed performance he still sucks in this performance too And why would they go out of their way to overdub and correct it just to make him still sound like crap? lol I highly doubt this is an overdubbed performance.
I didn't know Brad filled in for Randy, Wow!!
I would have loved to be at this Concert , I would have had a out of body experience , or levitate or something , ...
Obviously this was overdubbed in the studio after the live performance. The vocal is far too perfect to have come from Ozzy's performance you see here.
Brad did such a great job here. Followed the jest of it all the best he could. Not note for note Randy style. Only had a few days to figure out the structure.
It sounds like Ozzy redid the vocals in a studio.
Absolutely
Yes Max Norman , his producer has said Ozzy went in and redid the entire vocals for this show . I think it's safe to say Ozzy didn;t sound too great lol or would have been no need for this .
@@SJ-ty5rw lol… “re-did”??? These vocals are straight off Blizzard!..
I noticed he wasn’t double tracked the first tour. Diary became more apparent.
@@robchell9196 I never noticed any signs of any live juicing until well into his career. The tech wasn't really there in 82/83
Brad done brilliant
Speak of the devil !! Habla contigo mismo!! Los conflictos se arreglan por uno mismo!!
I would hate to be around people that look to him for answers to what lies ahead for mankind.
Brad is still my favorite guitarist after Randy. I love Jake,Zakk,Gus G,..,but Brad made it his own which I know Randy would have wanted it that way.
Never knew they did "Band Jam" with Brad. Thought it was only done with Randy. Really makes me sad they must have a full recorded show with Randy but won't show it for whatever reason.
great band tommy Aldridge on drums Rudy sorso on bass and of course bradd gillis on guitar
Tommy is a legend
That kit rocking
*_I know one thing I don't know how the hell _**_-O-_**_ _**_-Z-_**_ _**_-Z-_**_ _**_-Y-_**_ isn't ballin his eyes out while singing goodbye to romance._*
Especially when he sings the line:"Goodbye to all the best, I guess that we'll meet in the end" thinking of Randy. I do.
Because he's drunk
@@carystorm1863 *_All the more reason to cry his eyes out. Alcohol can bring out emotions worse. Its created a lot of country songs I know that._*
Tommy Aldridge is the MAN!!!
So....Nobody's gonna mention the dude hanging from the noose above the stage the whole time???😂😂😂😂😂😂. Seriously, though, Ozzy sounds amazing as well as the band...Aldridge is a monster.
To sing this after Randy.. hard
I'm the only one cuz I live in shame but I'm free again😅😅😅
Randy was not interested in recording an album of Sabbath songs, Sharon and Ozzy being so insistant that Randy told them he wanted to leave the band. But then the tradgedy. Sharon has always known how to fuck up bands.
Tommy playing the same solo for 3000 years...good though
Let's see an upload of your drum solo. Oh wait, you can't upload any because you're a talentless POS.
I remember the picture record disc...wonder what happened to mine?🤔
por favor los temas Gracias
Tommy Aldrige is the best of!! In my opinion
Brad Gillis of Night Ranger, lead guitar..
You can hear the sad in the ozzy voice
There is no speak of the devil concert , look it up
Changing the guitar solo in Goodbye to Romance is like changing the lyrics. Brad Gillis could have learned that in 5 minutes he is an amazing guitarist and it’s such an emotionally contextual solo he shouldn’t have tried to better it, it’s not possible.
0:01 Who knew Tom Baker was this good on drums?
I thought Brad did a KILLER job filling in for Randy!! Speak of the devil will be always one of my faves!! BUT WHY IN THE FUCK DIDN'T SHARON AND OZZY TAPE A LIVE SHOW/ VIDEO WITH RHOADS??????
That shit costs money. They probably couldn't afford to do it
@@christheghostwriter I think there's more to it than that, where do the royalties go to for example?
To the surviving members of Randy's family? They must have had money from blizzard and diary album sales
@@paulpearson1180 based on my experiences as an on again off again professional musician who did a few recording projects over the years and stage managed a touring live act, I stand by the idea that they didn't have much money in those first few years. It's a whole different world now, when people can make albums on laptops. Back then it cost a FORTUNE to make albums. Studio time was expensive in those days, and it took a long time and cost a lot of money to make a record. In addition to the studio time, they also had to pay Max Norman a salary to produce.
And they had to book rehearsal studios, find musicians, hire musicians, transport musicians, provide lodging for musicians, pay musicians for writing sessions, pay them for studio sessions, pay them for live shows, deal with food and per diems, rent expensive buses and buy expensive plane tickets, build stage sets, transport stage sets, book hotel rooms, have stage costumes made, and on and on and on. This was all just to get the thing off the ground so Ozzy could tour to support the first album. In early 80s circumstances, I bet they were a couple hundred grand in debt (at a minimum) when he launched his solo touring career.
And the record companies took most of the money from record sales in those days. Even if Ozzy got fronted a bunch of money from the record companies, artists are often in debt to record labels for years, depending on how much it cost them to make their albums. I doubt Ozzy and Sharon were really rolling in dough until a decade or so into his solo career.
I'm pretty confident that, if they could have afforded to do an extensive pro-shot multi-camera video/film or do multitrack audio recordings of either of those tours, they would have. That stuff was also a lot more expensive back in the day.
@@christheghostwriter I would say by 86 they were doing just fine. The Ultimate Sin tour was filmed for home video / pay TV release (I seem to recall HBO showing it back in the day). Plus every album up to that point had hit Platinum or better. Also Sharon's a savvy (not to mention cutthroat) business person so I doubt they were living off food stamps. But yeah everyone takes it for granted these days with having the equivalent of a high end camcorder in every phone. Back in the day it was a big expensive deal to have a show pro-shot.
They did. Ozzy didn't want to release any of it so he didn't look like a vulture. I wonder what he has in the vaults.
