Jake adapted Randy's solos. He said this many times. I have heard that Ozzy wanted Jake to copy them, but Jake didn't want to be compared, any more than was necessary.
Two observations: 1) As much of a train wreck as Ozzy was back in the day, the dude was a total natural when he hit the stage. Perfect timing. On key. Working the crowd like a boss. 2) Jake E. Lee is a fucking beast!
Jake E Lee nailed every solo. That guy is one phenomenal guitarist. I never knew he was this good, Holy crap. What's craziest, it's that he's pulling it off live!!!
You have to hand it to Jake...he was just a kid and had only been with Ozzy for a few weeks...he had to learn all of Randy’s parts...write material for the new album and perform at a huge festival...he was only in small club bands before that...good work!
@@johnmcminn9455 True, but one thing that always lingers is why the guy kept allowing himself to be conned over and over and over. Even to this day he said he "probably" would work with Ozzy again. Stories get inflated, everyone wants to make a buck or get attention and most will say, skew, distort their stories if it plays well with their agenda.
I've been a Randy Rhoads fan since I first saw him play back in '81. After he passed away and they got Jake I was so happy to see someone who can play Randy's solos without destroying them but also Jake adding his own flair.
What a killer video I'm 57 years old I was 20 when they show went down... We slept all night in the dirt parking lot the night before it was worth it every band kicked ass and this was off the hook when Ozzy did mr. Crowley... I'll never forget it
We camped out from Friday am and saw all three days, then left on Tues am.. It was A LIFETIME event for me.. I was 17 and my friends were fifteen.. Loveddd this show.
I was there I'm 54 now but it was just like yesterday had great tickets and I climb that big dirt hills jumped over the fence got chased by cops on horses for the hell of it best concert ever I've been to a lot shout out to Campbell hometown
What Ozzy and Sharon did to Jake was criminal. They used and discarded Jake when they should have been grateful as hell to him for saving Ozzy's career at that point. Jake E Lee was nothing short of a miracle that kept Ozzy at the top following the loss of Randy Rhoades.
This was beautiful. Jake E. Lee totally deserved a better luck in the business... Great player. Great feeling. Great composer. He was totally up to the challenge of steping into Randy's shoes...
He later went on to play in a band called Badlands. They were definitely different. The lead vocalist ended up dying from aids I believe. I ironically found a Badlands CD laying in the street in somewhere around 1999 or 2000 having never heard of the band before but I ended up kind of liking them. ua-cam.com/video/F5o3huMA-iU/v-deo.html
Jake E Lee was one of the most underrated guitarist ever to share the stage with Ozzy. He was SO good and SO his own style. Which reflected again in Badlands. Btw, I recorded this show live and still have the tape. Something I hold dear to me.
Mr. Crowley is basically one long solo from the Master of his time, Randy Rhoads. No one was doing anything like it. But for Jake to step in and play like that, Amazing. Simply Amazing!
SuperStrik9 The idea of Ozzy actually writing anything is kind of funny. Sure Sharon, we're all idiots. We'll believe Ozzy wrote all that music! Better watch out Sharon, the "killer of giants" is comin' for ya!
@@paulieramos not only that and I hate to admit it because Zakk is one of the absolute best but... Don't his solos sound a little samey after awhile? Like you can predict the pig squeals you know? Like it's his trademark but it almos feels like looking back at it there's Not a lot of variation from the squeals... I don't know is that just me?
@@christianblack392 I feel you, right. He just uses the same squeal. My favorite and will always be the MIGHTY VAN HALEN, then RANDY. You know who was really good but died way too early Cris Oliva from savatage
IMHO Ozzy has made a career riding the coattails of his first 4 albums, the Randy and Jake era's. Losing Randy was tragic but firing Jake was fucking moronic (Sharon's idea). Ozzy's music was never that caliber again.
+B33tle_HD I'm with you--I like pinch harmonics as much as the next guy but it can become a crutch just like the wah or any number of "cheap tricks" that are used to substitute for actual musical expression. That is what was so great about Randy Rhoads--he managed to say so much with his playing.
Nothing against Randy or Zakk, but Jake is hands down my favourite Ozzy guitarist. Love his playing so much. Bark at the moon is one of my all time favourite riffs.
Interesting story for me.... I was having a drink and a late night dinner at the bootlegger in Las Vegas. (Local spot south strip)... the bartender and I were discussing favorite guitar riffs of all time and another fella was joining in... they named theirs and I said “the intro from bark at the moon just crushed” and the other guy says “thank you”.. I didn’t put 2 and 2 together when he said his name was Jake... it was Jake e lee... much older than what I remember so it through me off .. cool dude and good talk
I'm with you there. I was lucky enough to see all three of Jake's tours with Ozzy. The first was in March of 1983. He was a literal "unknown." The tour program had Brad Gillis listed. All I knew before that show came from an interview I read with someone named Jakey Lou Williams who had replaced Brad in the band. After that night, well... 41 years later and he's still a personal fave.
Jake was great! He was well up there with most guitarists. Amazing songwriter, his music theory is top notch with all his chord variations to match the key and rhythm of the song. In terms of being treated fairly, I feel he would’ve done great in a band like Whitesnake or someone like that. Fuck Sharon and Ozzy !
Agree jake is great why for god sake he got less popularity don't know he deserves more. Funny that zakk got known of those pinch harmonics john sykes did it before, vivian campbell too, randy and many others
You can still see him play in Red Dragon Cartel...I can never get enough of this guy..Salt Lake City, Utah, Suicide Solution, he ripps up that guitar solo..must see if haven't yet
7:26 Tommy Aldridge cymbal choke, something 99.99% of everyone present for this show would never even notice or hear or care about...what an absolute professional
Tommy Aldridge was the best drummer Ozzy ever had IMO. Bark at the Moon Live 1984 (here on You Tube) kicks ass. Hell of a drummer. You can also find the same performance listed under Bark at the Moon Legendado.
Agreed. His snare drum was mighty - leading the charge, constant and valiant! That was his Paiste RUDE period. I had a full set of those back in 1984. In fact I was the first guy to get them in the whole Bay Area. I love those things and I still have a few - a Sound Edge bottom (with an ancient 2002 black logo bottom on top) and 18/20/22" Crash-Rides. The 1983 22" Ride/Crash was the first one I bought, and the only one that didn't eventually break, so that's a treasure. If you want to see/hear some nice Tommy drumming - check out the Whitesnake Live at the Hammersmith Apollo 2004.
I've always been amazed at the way Ozzy puts the mic in the stand for about 0.00000018 seconds before taking it back out again. That's an Ozzy trademark that no one else does.
Bark at the Moon is all anybody talks about. The other album Jake did with Ozzy, the Ultimate Sin is full of amazing music, and as far as Jake E Lee's wizardry, wipes the floor with BATM. 'Never' 'Lightening Strikes' 'Killer of Giants', the title track - none of it is remembered, Ozzy never played any of it live after the tour ended for it. It's one of the great Ozzy records - Jake is on fire, and Ozzy, with the money and the booze (as well as a certain sadness about RR) just ballooned in weight and as a direct result his voice was more powerful and passionate than at any time in his entire career. Just listen to 'Never' and tell me that isn't Ozzy at his most powerful.
I mean he's amazing in sabbath, especially on Sabbath Bloody Sabbath in '74. But i think there is an urgency and passion in his voice on Ultimate sin that is unlike anything he had ever done. His voice is huge. Some of his best singing.
***** it is so criminal that Jake was treated like this and if it only comes down to money then what happens to the art..I think Oz has brought so much to the music world but guys like Jake obviously help him along tremendously and Jake was and is a brilliant player hands down..he took over for randy amazingly which in itself is fn huge!then he wrote something great tunes ..one I would like to hear more is rock n roll rebel and the other is journey to the center of eternity. .incredible stuff!
***** you can't go wrong learning that song brother!and yes I could not put it any better than you on where ozzy and Sharon would be without the late great randy and of course the Jake man kept his career alive!
Randy 's live EP version of this used to be my party-piece. Live Bark at the Moon a close second. Until now hadn't listened to it in years. Ozzy stood on the shoulders of some great musicians. A lucky clown.
Jake has something that I've always admired. You hear him on the album and he sounds great. Then you hear him live and you think that he was holding back on the album. Jake is a live musician where too many others are studio musicians.
It's nothing short of amazing that Jake was able to pull that lead off as fast as the tempo was. If you go back and listen to Randy play it live, he almost had to throw in extra notes because it was played so slow. Jake is an awesome guitarist.
I'm a huge Randy Rhoads fan but Jake E Lee is still one of my top three favorite guitarists of all time.. I was fortunate enough to meet him on the Bark at the Moon and the ultimate sin tour. Very very cool guy. definitely one of the best shredders and hugely underrated. He never got the recognition that he deserved. he went on to do great work in Badlands.. Red Dragon Cartel
I was 13 people back from center stage....after or rather during crazy train had to exit stage left...too damn hot... people were dropping like flies! Eric Underwood class of 81 Downey High School California
@Keith Long Hey... It was a hot summer day...it was people's body heat from being so close they were hosing us down My friend Billy was short ...he tugged on me and when I bent down to hear him I swear it was like 15 degrees hotter a foot down.. I told him ( he looked all pale ) hold on to the back of my pants and don't let go for nothing...we plowed left ...by the time we cleared the crowd about 150 yards left Billy had like 45 people hanging on to him like a train! People just couldn't get out and they would just pass out and we were picking them up over our heads and passing them along and putting them over the stage barrier for medical...if you look you can see it in the video...people getting put over that barrier wall in front of the stage! ✌️
LONG LIVE RANDY CASTILLO!!! LONG LIVE RANDY RHOADS!!! Randy Castillo is honored in the Smithsonian American Indian Museum for his contribution to rock music, can't get much better than that!! Apache
U guys are wankers. Jake is a drunk loser. When randy came out on the diary of a madman tour he had flames shooting from fingers. He was a god among men and the ONLY guitar player to EVER give Eddie a run for his money.
Sigh...No...Wrong..After Randy there was Brad Gillis. Jake is a great guitar player, but Brad was offered the position first and declined to stay on after Speak of the Devil.
Tommy has played with some of the best, such as Black Oak Arkansas, Pat Travers Band, Ozzy Osbourne, Gary Moore, Whitesnake, Ted Nugent, Thin Lizzy, Vinnie Moore & Yngwie Malmsteen and more. IMHO he's also the the best pioneer in double bass drumming!
I love Tommy's drumming too but Lee Kerslake was the real drum monster. Not convinced? Just listen to the drum intro to Over the Mountain or Little dolls.All done with a single bass drum!
bwdrums1 While Im quite sure there was “blow” around there -I can guarantee you that Tommy wasn’t even considering taking any. I met one of his personal friends and Tommy is not like that at all.
Chris Kemp He won the lottery alot....tony created heavy metal guitar thrusting ozzy into heavy metal god status. Then with randy creating a eerie style of heavy guitarl blue printing the path for his solo career. Then again with jake ,the only guy who could truly follow randy without trying to copy him..Then even zakk was perfect even tho he couldve been replaced easier than the previous
@@snowblind3838 geezer wrote literally everything in sabbath, he was a genius, obviously the other band member had input but he played guitar too and would construct the songs and what not
@@vandenbos6401 there are different types of singers. If Ozzy were a joke singer then Sabbath would not have made it off the ground and Ozzy by himself would definitely never have had s successful solo career. You can say "oh Sharron is the one that made Ozzy famous" and you would technically be correct because she did have the makings as a great manager. But great managers can't make you big if you don't have any talent.
Jake had just stepped into some BIG shoes...and did a damn fine job. So nice to hear a real live recording...straight up rock, as it was. Really played, and not doctored.
I was there in US 83 Festival. I was in the front row right in front of Jake. He did a great job that day, no apologies needed. You rocked it hard Jake!!!
I like how Jake changed it a bit. It wasn't so much change that it was ruined and he made it his own while maintaining the integrity of the piece. Randy changed his own solos. He improvised on occasion. It gets boring playing the same exact solo every time. Even when they're brilliant solos. I actually started using one of Jake's techniques after seeing this video. When the second solo starts, right after the interlude, Jake does the triads using hybrid picking. I've had trouble playing those triads like they're written. For some reason it's always been easier for me to play 4 note groups than 3. I started using hybrid picking and now I have no trouble with them. Why go see it live if it's going to be exact like the studio recording? It's cool to see how bands pull off songs that have overdubs in the studio recording, in a live setting. If Randy was a God (and I don't argue that) then Jake is, at least, a demi-god. He to has some brilliant solos. Like Bark at the Moon, Rumblin' Train etc... I'm not sure why anyone feels compelled to be negative about Jake, he had some HUGE shoes to fill and did a damn good job.
Everyone here is rightfully commenting on Bob, Tommy, and even Jake. But don't forget Don on keyboards. He was a perfect compliment to the band back in the day.
mano a mano you see that cymbal choke at 7:26? That man is a pro at all times. Nobody would care or notice if he missed it. But he cared. Legendary musician. So under appreciated
The drummer, guy is a legend in metal/rock's history, played with some of the best musicians around and on some of the most important, influential rdcords of all time...
Love RR and Jake, big part of that creative process was due to Bob Daisley the bass player(seen playing in this video). Bob wrote or co wrote many of Ozzy's greatest hits working with Randy, Jake and Zakk. He wrote lyrics, pieced together ideas and provided compositional framework. Bob along with countless others screwed by Sharon.
Very true. I think Ozzy finally squared up with him and the others. Without Bob you had nothing. Ozzy owes his post Sabbath career to Bob. He wrote everything. Ozzy was and is a singer ..a vocalist. not a lyricist as the credits on the first 4 solo albums would have you believe. Sharon is without a doubt the biggest fuckin cunt in the business. she took pride in fucking people out of their publishing rights then kicked them out of the band. she would have done the same to Randy had he not been killed.
I think Jake knew that he would be appreciated more, after he was gone. This is a perfect example of knowing Randy's original solo's but adding his own flavor. He visites Randy work (mostly) then shows you some flair because Jake is a badass too.
+Ian Sorola Probably wouldn't have lasted long, as none of the members did...They got ousted at one point or another, great ones too, like Jake RR didn't get a chance to quit or get ousted
This was the first time I'd ever heard or seen Ozzy Osbourne. It was on HBO or Showtime or something. I lived in this little Mormon town and thought I was really doing something I shouldn't have been. lol It felt so good I never looked back. Jake did a hell of a job standing in Randy's shoes here! This wasn't even a year after the accident and before Bark at the Moon was released so I can only imagine the pressure Jake must have been under at the moment. Pulling this off in front of over 100,000 screaming fans!!! Shiiiittt, that's nuckin' futz!
Jake says he doesn’t get nervous. Good thing, most people would, just having joined with Ozzy right before this concert. He’s one of my very favorite guitarists. Ozzy was so lucky to get him.
People think Crazy Train is just a metal/rock song or anthem at sports games. They dont understand the true message behind, yea it can be a hype song too but the main message is just so emotional. Not to mention very melodic voice ozzy has and the song is melodic as well.
@@dontmakemelaugh01 my friend had to explain why he had a sunburn down the middle of his face. His cheeks and top corners of his forehead were like ass cheeks white, so damn funny for so long after. He took all the joking like a champ lol I forgot about that until you mentioned how hot it was.
Historic Films Archive it says in the description. I bet they are the only source who could provide the original material. Bits and pieces have been used for US festival documentaries, but the majority of the material (or enire concerts) is still on hold up.
Jake E Lee...there are no words to describe his talent.
Bark and Ultimate sin.
@@daviclar867 100% spot on
So true. Bark at the moon. Such a killer album
He's a fucking hack.
his vibrato and melody is on par with Randy honestly, anyone who says else is deaf
Jake's fucking ripping it up here - no one other than Randy himself could play Randy's solos with the precision, feel and passion that Lee did.
Jake adapted Randy's solos. He said this many times. I have heard that Ozzy wanted Jake to copy them, but Jake didn't want to be compared, any more than was necessary.
What are your metrics for 'feel' and 'passion'?
he changed a bit
And then came Zakk
What? He's all over the place making shit up. Fucking trash.
Two observations:
1) As much of a train wreck as Ozzy was back in the day, the dude was a total natural when he hit the stage. Perfect timing. On key. Working the crowd like a boss.
2) Jake E. Lee is a fucking beast!
Pretend train wreck
…and you can understand what he’s saying

Check out his performance during the Bark At The Moon tour in Salt Lake City 1984, mindblowing stuff.
@@livingbeing1113 Yes! It's incredible isn't it!
He actually played them very differently. He kept the spirit of them though.
Watching the handful of solos I’ve found on UA-cam of him makes him hand down the most underrated guitarists. Too bad he got some bad luck with bands
@@mrhyde2250 different ? LMAO
It always amuses me watching Ozzy go back to the mic stand, put it on for a half a second, then take off again.
+Scyle Ornitier done it all his life because he has always felt he dont do enough on stage so he tries to keep moving
I know, me too! And it only got worse with time!! LoL
The second I read ur comment, he did it, killed me
Cocaine is a hell of a drug lol
I cant unsee this shit
You have to hand it to Jake...he was just a kid and had only been with Ozzy for a few weeks...he had to learn all of Randy’s parts...write material for the new album and perform at a huge festival...he was only in small club bands before that...good work!
You have to hand it to Jake for wearing fingerless gloves, maybe he was auditioning for Meatloaf before this gig
@BLOGAN BURGESS the Bob Daisaly diaries were really intense, he wrote down everything .
He trusted no one, and was right.
He was with Ratt before taking the job with Ozzy, Warren DeMartini lived on Jake's couch while he learned the Ratt songs that Jake had been doing

I hate Zake adding his gay pinch harmonics to Randy Rhoads riffs.
Not only could Jake do Randy's work, but what Jake created was equally amazing
Bark at the Moons solo, is, IMHO, the best Ozzy song solo there is. The outro is unmatched.
Agreed
I’m a huge Randy Rhoads fan, but damn Jake can play, I don’t care what anyone says.
I think he's the guitar player after Randy that played Randy's stuff the best.
It's pretty well accepted that he was Ozzy's best guitarist and just constantly got nerfed by Sharon.
Who ever says Lee does not completely rip? His Badlands band was sick too
Jake unfortunately had to follow Randy, he had big shoes to fill, and Ozzy's habit of firing musicians didn't help.
Cornelius Crewe I’ve never heard anyone say he couldn’t play
Jake E Lee was brilliant. My favorite Ozzy guitarrista. He was flawless !!
rocky randy absolutely flawless.
Yeah he plays it good but who created these legendary songs...Randy Rhoads
Rhandy Rhodes. Then jake E Lee then Zack wylde. In my humble opinion. Randy was the most inventive guitarist Ozzy ever had .

Indeed and very cool to see him have a signature amp from Friedman that totally rocks
Big shoes to fill for sure
Yes he was
What Ozzy and Sharon did to Jake was criminal. They used and discarded Jake when they should have been grateful as hell to him for saving Ozzy's career at that point. Jake E Lee was nothing short of a miracle that kept Ozzy at the top following the loss of Randy Rhoades.

Are you for real? That was fucking awful
Not Even close tu Randys , no Even an inche!!
Bob Daisley on bass . Brilliant player. He wrote most of Ozzies songs
Jake was so underrated as a guitarist . He was a breath of fresh air after Randy's death, to play his solos so well .
Not even close. Fucking trash. It's an insult to say he could play anything near as well as RR.
Jake E. Lee, Tommy Aldridge, Bob Daisley, Don Airey. Amazing band!
Jake SAVED Ozzy's fucking career with BATM. Sharon thanked Jake by firing him.
Jake ruled then and he rules now.
Agreed. Also treated Bob Daisley much the same way.

I was at his feet in 84 in Paris for this tour. Same. I’ll never forget
Total shit it was he is.
To me Jake and Randy are the best guitarist that Ozzy work with. Amazing solo.
Without disrespecting Zakk Wylde, totally agree, unfortunately Jake was another victim of Ozzy's wife and thrown to the garbage as many others.
Totally agree! Also thin Vito Bratta from white lion woulda been a perfect fit!
Randy and Tony are by far the best but neither are better because their styles are uncomparable.

I was like three years old 😂😂😂
Jake is definitely the most underrated guitarist that Ozzy ever had. I got to see Ozzy with Jake twice. This definitely never gets old....
Jake has always been my favorite guitar player for Ozzy after Randy.
@@stanleybroniszewsky8538 Jake was a great replacement for Randy. Never cared much for Zakk
I'm with you there. I was lucky enough to see all three of Jake's tours with Ozzy.
The first was in March of 1983. He was a literal "unknown." The tour program had Brad Gillis listed. All I knew before that show came from an interview I read with someone named Jakey Lou Williams who had replaced Brad in the band.
After that night, well...
41 years later and he's still a personal fave.
“Should I put the mic on the stand now? Nooo I need to keep moving”- Ozzys high thoughts
😂😵😝😨😲😵😂
😂
Jake was Ozzy's best guitar player post RR.. He filled those shoes just to fine. I hate how he got done by Sharon..
Jake was great! He was well up there with most guitarists. Amazing songwriter, his music theory is top notch with all his chord variations to match the key and rhythm of the song.
In terms of being treated fairly, I feel he would’ve done great in a band like Whitesnake or someone like that. Fuck Sharon and Ozzy !
I couldn't agree more. I love his constant energy too. Makes for a very enjoyable live experience. Though I do like Zakks solos a little more
I hate how zakk gets all the attention......with those annoying pinch squeals
Agree jake is great why for god sake he got less popularity don't know he deserves more.
Funny that zakk got known of those pinch harmonics john sykes did it before, vivian campbell too, randy and many others
@@evyatarof blue murder!!!
Jake is just awesome
+oakenshanks 10:14.. He is a natural on stage
You can still see him play in Red Dragon Cartel...I can never get enough of this guy..Salt Lake City, Utah, Suicide Solution, he ripps up that guitar solo..must see if haven't yet
randy and jake are equal
+Brenda Shreve I disagree, I really feel like Jake struggled playing randys solos.
+Mick D yup randy wipes Jake sorry
7:26 Tommy Aldridge cymbal choke, something 99.99% of everyone present for this show would never even notice or hear or care about...what an absolute professional
Cymbal chokes are 50/50 sound and showmanship IMHO, but used with restraint they are AWESOME!!!!
Tommy Aldridge was the best drummer Ozzy ever had IMO. Bark at the Moon Live 1984 (here on You Tube) kicks ass. Hell of a drummer. You can also find the same performance listed under Bark at the Moon Legendado.
Agreed. His snare drum was mighty - leading the charge, constant and valiant! That was his Paiste RUDE period. I had a full set of those back in 1984. In fact I was the first guy to get them in the whole Bay Area. I love those things and I still have a few - a Sound Edge bottom (with an ancient 2002 black logo bottom on top) and 18/20/22" Crash-Rides. The 1983 22" Ride/Crash was the first one I bought, and the only one that didn't eventually break, so that's a treasure. If you want to see/hear some nice Tommy drumming - check out the Whitesnake Live at the Hammersmith Apollo 2004.
Not bad, but Brian Downey's shoes are hard to fill.
I've always been amazed at the way Ozzy puts the mic in the stand for about 0.00000018 seconds before taking it back out again. That's an Ozzy trademark that no one else does.
Who's here just for the Solo?
jake e lee
yo
Bigstep uk yo
Ya that's about what Ozzy has to offer in a nutshell...
what for 2nd rate Randy ?
Bark at the Moon is all anybody talks about. The other album Jake did with Ozzy, the Ultimate Sin is full of amazing music, and as far as Jake E Lee's wizardry, wipes the floor with BATM. 'Never' 'Lightening Strikes' 'Killer of Giants', the title track - none of it is remembered, Ozzy never played any of it live after the tour ended for it. It's one of the great Ozzy records - Jake is on fire, and Ozzy, with the money and the booze (as well as a certain sadness about RR) just ballooned in weight and as a direct result his voice was more powerful and passionate than at any time in his entire career. Just listen to 'Never' and tell me that isn't Ozzy at his most powerful.
I mean he's amazing in sabbath, especially on Sabbath Bloody Sabbath in '74. But i think there is an urgency and passion in his voice on Ultimate sin that is unlike anything he had ever done. His voice is huge. Some of his best singing.
loknloll I will agree with this! Great album and killer of giants is insane!! Shot in the dark all great!
I totally agree my brother. Ultimate Sin is an awesome album, not a bad song on it. Jake E Lee is so underated.
***** it is so criminal that Jake was treated like this and if it only comes down to money then what happens to the art..I think Oz has brought so much to the music world but guys like Jake obviously help him along tremendously and Jake was and is a brilliant player hands down..he took over for randy amazingly which in itself is fn huge!then he wrote something great tunes ..one I would like to hear more is rock n roll rebel and the other is journey to the center of eternity. .incredible stuff!
***** you can't go wrong learning that song brother!and yes I could not put it any better than you on where ozzy and Sharon would be without the late great randy and of course the Jake man kept his career alive!
Randy 's live EP version of this used to be my party-piece. Live Bark at the Moon a close second. Until now hadn't listened to it in years. Ozzy stood on the shoulders of some great musicians. A lucky clown.
Jake has something that I've always admired. You hear him on the album and he sounds great. Then you hear him live and you think that he was holding back on the album. Jake is a live musician where too many others are studio musicians.
Really Old Rookie Agreed! He was able to be himself in Badlands, me thinks.
And he also move a lot on stage
no matter how many times i hear Mr. Crowley...still brings me shivers.
@The Narrow Way Broadcasting how fucking stupid are you...
The Narrow Way Broadcasting You must like believing everything you see on your church’s newspaper you little fucking thoughtless sheep
The Narrow Way Broadcasting Well it’s not like the Catholic Church has been convicted of pedophilia...
@The Narrow Way Broadcasting You sound fun at parties.
Jake is my Fave Of Ozzy's guitarists.
Must have been so hard to lose Randy. I wonder how many years after his death was Ozzy fueled by the need to medicate to cope with the loss.
For those of us who saw Randy, it was a tough loss. That said, Ozzy attracts the best of guitarists.
Dumb question in a way..he was self medicated since 1970. No disrespect but yeah. He's a freak
Ozzy took drug's way before that for fun & enjoyment ! 👍✌
He gonna quit the band anyway or ozzy gonna kick him before he does
Many many many many years, before and after
This video is brought to you by pure, natural Colombian cocaine.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
danielscissorhands That was just the after breakfast "bump".
danielscissorhands I'm never reading the top comments before watching a video again. I can't fucking stop laughing.
Guitar Whores heh
AxisOfSmeagol :)
It's nothing short of amazing that Jake was able to pull that lead off as fast as the tempo was. If you go back and listen to Randy play it live, he almost had to throw in extra notes because it was played so slow. Jake is an awesome guitarist.
100% shit
Best live Ozzy guitarist ever. Jake is a heart player.
Fucking guitar genius at work...the camera should've never left that fret board!!
Mr Crowley will always be my no 1 tune from the Ozzy era..
I'm a huge Randy Rhoads fan but Jake E Lee is still one of my top three favorite guitarists of all time.. I was fortunate enough to meet him on the Bark at the Moon and the ultimate sin tour. Very very cool guy. definitely one of the best shredders and hugely underrated. He never got the recognition that he deserved. he went on to do great work in Badlands.. Red Dragon Cartel
One thing I gotta say is that Ozzy has always had a knack for great guitar players.
A moment like this will never be seen again Bob Daisley, Jake E. Lee, Don Airey and Ozzy Osbourne in their prime, together...
I was 13 people back from center stage....after or rather during crazy train had to exit stage left...too damn hot... people were dropping like flies! Eric Underwood class of 81 Downey High School California
@Keith Long Hey... It was a hot summer day...it was people's body heat from being so close they were hosing us down My friend Billy was short ...he tugged on me and when I bent down to hear him I swear it was like 15 degrees hotter a foot down.. I told him ( he looked all pale ) hold on to the back of my pants and don't let go for nothing...we plowed left ...by the time we cleared the crowd about 150 yards left Billy had like 45 people hanging on to him like a train! People just couldn't get out and they would just pass out and we were picking them up over our heads and passing them along and putting them over the stage barrier for medical...if you look you can see it in the video...people getting put over that barrier wall in front of the stage! ✌️
Jake E Lee's debut - wow what a Gtr God!
+eddyrox5150 He is out there still in Red dragon Cartel
LONG LIVE RANDY CASTILLO!!!
LONG LIVE RANDY RHOADS!!!
Randy Castillo is honored in the Smithsonian American Indian Museum for his contribution to rock music, can't get much better than that!!
Apache
jeannettemarie1313 Its Tommy Aldridge on drums???
Danny Brew YES
jeannettemarie1313 he played on motley crue new tattoo album but wasn't able to tour it due to cancer which he died from soon after.
Randy Castillo was a great drummer....well deserved. He should be honored.
Watching again..Jakes my favorite Oz guitarist
Mr Alridge on drums and Mr Lee on guitar doesn't get much better than that!!
+Caleb Bartlett *Aldridge
ehhhh.. how bout Mr Aldridge and Mr RHOADS?? ;)
Yes however I find Mr Lee honestly a bit better only because of his versatility when it comes to his solo writing his solos are so OTT!!
Totally agree.
U guys are wankers. Jake is a drunk loser. When randy came out on the diary of a madman tour he had flames shooting from fingers. He was a god among men and the ONLY guitar player to EVER give Eddie a run for his money.
After Randy Rhoads, and before Zack Wylde there was Jake E. Lee. Nuff said.
James McCarty perfect!!!!
People forget about Brad Gillis :speak of the devil is a great live recording
You can't forget Joe Holmes. Very underrated.
Sam Harvey He took lessons from Randy, no wonder he was so good!! 👍
Sigh...No...Wrong..After Randy there was Brad Gillis. Jake is a great guitar player, but Brad was offered the position first and declined to stay on after Speak of the Devil.
Best lineup.
holy shit i remember this concert back in 83 best time of my life
What a tight drummer! One of the best I've heard playing with Ozzy
Tommy is a great drummer!
Tommy has played with some of the best, such as Black Oak Arkansas, Pat Travers Band, Ozzy Osbourne, Gary Moore, Whitesnake, Ted Nugent, Thin Lizzy, Vinnie Moore & Yngwie Malmsteen
and more. IMHO he's also
the the best pioneer in double bass drumming!
I love Tommy, too, but he's rushing the tempo a lot on Crazy Train. I'm sure there was plenty of blow around that day.....lol
I love Tommy's drumming too but Lee Kerslake was the real drum monster. Not convinced? Just listen to the drum intro to Over the Mountain or Little dolls.All done with a single bass drum!
bwdrums1 While Im quite sure there was “blow” around there -I can guarantee you that Tommy wasn’t even considering taking any. I met one of his personal friends and Tommy is not like that at all.
What a beautiful guitarist guys! Not everyone could play this one!!!! 🎸❤️
Ozzy won the lottery when he got. Jake 1 in a billion
+Chris Kemp
Ozzy proved himself with black sabbath. He could perform with anyone and be awesome!
Chris Kemp it's Too bad Sharon couldn't see it.jake is very under rated in my opinion.
Chris Kemp He won the lottery alot....tony created heavy metal guitar thrusting ozzy into heavy metal god status. Then with randy creating a eerie style of heavy guitarl blue printing the path for his solo career. Then again with jake ,the only guy who could truly follow randy without trying to copy him..Then even zakk was perfect even tho he couldve been replaced easier than the previous
I BELIEVE GEEZER WROTE MOST SABBATH SONGS AS FAR AS LYRICS - THE BETTER ONES AT THAT
@@snowblind3838 geezer wrote literally everything in sabbath, he was a genius, obviously the other band member had input but he played guitar too and would construct the songs and what not
Ozzy's singing is spot on here! AWESOME!
true!
See 7:35
You're joking. Right??
Ozzy is a joke singer and thats probably that made him famous. He hits the notes barely but his voice is just so wobbly
@@vandenbos6401 there are different types of singers. If Ozzy were a joke singer then Sabbath would not have made it off the ground and Ozzy by himself would definitely never have had s successful solo career. You can say "oh Sharron is the one that made Ozzy famous" and you would technically be correct because she did have the makings as a great manager. But great managers can't make you big if you don't have any talent.
Who else is here for Jakes debut? Oh and 9:44 also.
Haha i was sure this is about tittiez.
Jake had just stepped into some BIG shoes...and did a damn fine job.
So nice to hear a real live recording...straight up rock, as it was. Really played, and not doctored.
It's so nice to hear a true live Ozzy vocal. A lot of his live concerts were over dubbed afterwards.
I was there in US 83 Festival. I was in the front row right in front of Jake. He did a great job that day, no apologies needed. You rocked it hard Jake!!!
I was right in front of Rudy Schenker when the Scorpions did their set. Cheers to that concert!
I couldn't believe it when Jake wasn't in Ozzy anymore. He is my favorite Ozzy guitarist along with RR.
Man Jake has some mad, crazy chops. I love to listen to him rip.
Without doubt the greatest rock guitarist of his generation. And the best Ozzy ever had. Shame on Sharon!
I like how Jake changed it a bit. It wasn't so much change that it was ruined and he made it his own while maintaining the integrity of the piece. Randy changed his own solos. He improvised on occasion. It gets boring playing the same exact solo every time. Even when they're brilliant solos. I actually started using one of Jake's techniques after seeing this video. When the second solo starts, right after the interlude, Jake does the triads using hybrid picking. I've had trouble playing those triads like they're written. For some reason it's always been easier for me to play 4 note groups than 3. I started using hybrid picking and now I have no trouble with them. Why go see it live if it's going to be exact like the studio recording? It's cool to see how bands pull off songs that have overdubs in the studio recording, in a live setting. If Randy was a God (and I don't argue that) then Jake is, at least, a demi-god. He to has some brilliant solos. Like Bark at the Moon, Rumblin' Train etc... I'm not sure why anyone feels compelled to be negative about Jake, he had some HUGE shoes to fill and did a damn good job.
Jake "E" Lee simplemente el mejor guitarrista que ha tenido Ozzy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Randy
Everyone here is rightfully commenting on Bob, Tommy, and even Jake. But don't forget Don on keyboards. He was a perfect compliment to the band back in the day.
I love Ozzy he has a Spectacular voice there is no other like his voice is unique. 🇬🇧🇧🇷
jake lee in crazy train fucking killed it
Isn't it just fucking amazing that Nobody thought of filming a concert when Randy was alive! I'll never understand it????
Tommy Aldridge and Jake E Lee; that's a kickass hard rock band there!
mano a mano you see that cymbal choke at 7:26? That man is a pro at all times. Nobody would care or notice if he missed it. But he cared. Legendary musician. So under appreciated
mano a mano Randy and Lee were better imo..but yes Jake and Tommy were amazing together
I feel kinda naive, but who is Tommy Aldridge?
The drummer, guy is a legend in metal/rock's history, played with some of the best musicians around and on some of the most important, influential rdcords of all time...
@@fistoftulkas7335 bass player Don Costa
Love RR and Jake, big part of that creative process was due to Bob Daisley the bass player(seen playing in this video). Bob wrote or co wrote many of Ozzy's greatest hits working with Randy, Jake and Zakk. He wrote lyrics, pieced together ideas and provided compositional framework. Bob along with countless others screwed by Sharon.
Man thats sad
Very true. I think Ozzy finally squared up with him and the others. Without Bob you had nothing. Ozzy owes his post Sabbath career to Bob. He wrote everything. Ozzy was and is a singer ..a vocalist. not a lyricist as the credits on the first 4 solo albums would have you believe. Sharon is without a doubt the biggest fuckin cunt in the business. she took pride in fucking people out of their publishing rights then kicked them out of the band. she would have done the same to Randy had he not been killed.
Jake E Lee completely rocks the ending solo of Mr Crowley.
The Producer: Let's focus on Ozzy and Bob.
That solo was amazing
Awful is what they all were. Fucking trash.
Incredible picture quality for that year!
R.I.P. RANDY RHOADS. The true genius who composed this! I forever wish you were still here today.
@A Design Yeah Ive heard that. Id like to think he would have done another album or two with ozzy before leaving to do his own thing.
" is everybody high???" Lol
You certainly are, Ozzy. !! 😂
Mr. Jake E. Lee, Ozzy's secret weapon. Great job in Bark At The Moon. This guy was an animal to nail Randy Rhoads' solo lick by lick.
You need your ears checked. Those solos were fucking trash.
I was there... AMAZING performance. We were all shocked after the death of RR. Devastating. Ozzy was really great that day.
Im glad I didnt miss this 31 years ago!
I'm just wondering if the water mark can be any bigger? Can hardly see it......
Get glasses lmao
@@mansample5266 I'm guessing I might have to!! Ha!!
UA-cam comments are getting a life of their own, i think its the most brilliant thing on the world nowdays
This film is motherfucking historic!
@Steven Gallant LOL
Jake's Ozzy is No1 !!!
I think Jake knew that he would be appreciated more, after he was gone. This is a perfect example of knowing Randy's original solo's but adding his own flavor. He visites Randy work (mostly) then shows you some flair because Jake is a badass too.
This could've been the concert that boosted Randy's career
+Ian Sorola Probably wouldn't have lasted long, as none of the members did...They got ousted at one point or another, great ones too, like Jake RR didn't get a chance to quit or get ousted
This ‘83 concert is absolutely my favorite fucking live Ozzy performance
This was the first time I'd ever heard or seen Ozzy Osbourne. It was on HBO or Showtime or something. I lived in this little Mormon town and thought I was really doing something I shouldn't have been. lol It felt so good I never looked back. Jake did a hell of a job standing in Randy's shoes here! This wasn't even a year after the accident and before Bark at the Moon was released so I can only imagine the pressure Jake must have been under at the moment. Pulling this off in front of over 100,000 screaming fans!!! Shiiiittt, that's nuckin' futz!
great job jake you make randy proud please keep playing
+Charles Massoud Red Dragon Cartel "Deceived" Check out the music video if you haven't already
+Mr. Lowery Yeah, thats ridinkey-donkey
I'm Mormon. The message in crazy train is actually really good.
Jace Meldrum All of Ozzy and even sabbath songs have religious themes and both were pro religion (specifically Christianity haha)
Having tattoos in the 80’s, tattoos in those locations on Ozzy was just unheard of or rarely ever seen then.
Jake says he doesn’t get nervous. Good thing, most people would, just having joined with Ozzy right before this concert. He’s one of my very favorite guitarists. Ozzy was so lucky to get him.
People think Crazy Train is just a metal/rock song or anthem at sports games. They dont understand the true message behind, yea it can be a hype song too but the main message is just so emotional. Not to mention very melodic voice ozzy has and the song is melodic as well.
BEST Ca high desert concert EVER!! if you were there
Quiet Riot, Motley Crue, Ozzy, Triumph, Judas Priest, Scorpions, VanHalen. We got there during Carlos' "Battleaxe" and left when VH started.
It was hotter than hell , but a good time was had by all.
@@dontmakemelaugh01 my friend had to explain why he had a sunburn down the middle of his face. His cheeks and top corners of his forehead were like ass cheeks white, so damn funny for so long after. He took all the joking like a champ lol
I forgot about that until you mentioned how hot it was.
parted his hair down the middle lol
Jake .... he was a force to be reckoned with back in the day! .... he carried that whole show off!
I wonder what kind of Films company uploaded this footage. I guess we’ll never know.
Historic Films Archive it says in the description. I bet they are the only source who could provide the original material. Bits and pieces have been used for US festival documentaries, but the majority of the material (or enire concerts) is still on hold up.
Max Mustermann sarcasm. The name is huge and right in the middle
He was being sarcastic.
I have a feeling it may be a historic film someday!
