Members Cryptos Posted March 2, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 2, 2012 Apparently whoever cut this video is a {censored}ing idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dimperdoo Posted March 2, 2012 Members Share Posted March 2, 2012 someone speculates on the youtube comments that it's the result of filming w/ an old super 8 camera (or something like that) which only has reels 3 minutes long - probably the guy was changing reels during the rest of the songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ***1776*** Posted March 2, 2012 Members Share Posted March 2, 2012 Wow the band was {censored}ing spot on and tight that night, damn they are playing in the pocket for sure as a group! (Rudy on bass, Tommy Aldrich on drums) Ozzy sounds pretty good as well, but the band is ripping shyt up as a whole, they sound damn good! What can you say about Randy that hasnt been said, the guy was simply amazing and i think would have left Ozzy eventually (5-10 yrs) and did his own thing Ya know for 30 year old video the sound is not 'that bad', (all things considered) i wish it was done professionally.. Very cool video, thanks for posting and this is a RARE video for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members blazingblake Posted March 2, 2012 Members Share Posted March 2, 2012 1776 its Tommy Aldridge and its well known nowadays that Randy was saying that he was leaving after the Diary of a Madman tour to study classical guitar at UCLA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DARKMETL/ Posted March 2, 2012 Members Share Posted March 2, 2012 What a crime that there isn't more live footage from this line-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DoubleBarrel Posted March 2, 2012 Members Share Posted March 2, 2012 Ok, I am dating myself here, but I was at that show In fact I saw both shows that night & a few more in the nect few weeks. Still to this day, one of the best sounding, tightest bands I have ever heard. I have seen this footage before & there are a few more patrial songs. It is, like someone posted, back in 1981, we didnt have cell phones, video cameras and all the tech crap we have now. This was shot with a super 8 home movie camera. Not the best for filming concerts, but it was all we had back then. I wish we had better stuff and more recordings of Randy. He died about a month or so before Ozzy did the MTV show with Brad Gillis. That would have been epic with Randy. Still to this day Randy had one of the best live guitar tones I have ever heard. Tribute sounds like crap compared to what I heard live. Thanks for posting this & bringing back some great memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One early and one late. I went to both. Motorhed opened up. But I was there to see Randy and he did not disappoint. Still have the ticket stub & tour book from that show too. Went to see BOC a few weeks ago & got Rudy to sign the tourbook. Supernice guy & talked a little about Randy. If you are into books check out Rudy's book "off the Rails". It's about his time in Ozzy's band, up till the "accident". Great read & full of funny stories, as well as a very unique take on the "accident" and the aftermath. Yeah the plane "accident" was stupidly avoidable. I now live not far from where the plane crash happened. Gotta get over there one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members leftyaxeman Posted March 2, 2012 Members Share Posted March 2, 2012 These 2 shows at the Palladium are still at the top of my list as the best shows I've ever witnessed. We went to the 1st show and were so blown away by how tight the band sounded, we climbed the fire escape & greased the palm of a bouncer who let us in for the second show. I had also caught them the week before, 4/24/81 at the Capital Theater in Passaic. Motorhead opened for them & was plagued with feedback problems, we hung in the lobby till Randy & the boys hit the stage, we were 5th row for that show, a very memorable show I might add. It was the 1st time seeing Randy live & he was truly amazing. I always hear people talk about Randy's crappy tone, his live sound was massive & powerful, these super 8's dont do it justice. Most people only hear the cd digital tone which leaves a lot to be desired (cold & harsh), but if they put the vinyl on a good stereo it's like tone heaven, a world of difference. I actually got to meet & speak w/Randy for about 30 mins at a record signing. It was right out of Spinal Tap, no one in the store but a clerk, Ozzy, Rudy & Randy & my friends & I. I mentioned I played guitar to Randy and was studying Classical guitar & he came around the counter & we discussed classical guitar pieces & techniques. He was a truly humble down to earth guy. His death is such a loss to the guitar community. Sorry for being so long winded. BTW, thanks for posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
