Guest AlexVDL Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 You mean the Ozzy song? Yes I play that song in my band... solo is simple, but very cool!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbkim Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 You mean the Ozzy song? Yes I play that song in my band... solo is simple, but very cool!!! Yeah, Randy had some of the tightest timing ever. His unison overdubbing of his solos are scary precise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Litchfield Custom Gutars Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 yeah, it sound a little challenging. The bends are very slick. no room fo error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlexVDL Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 hmm i see nothing special about that solo.. yeah it is very cool, but simple But if you're talking about copying randy's playing technique than that's another story... copying peoples technique and sound is almost impossible, because you always have your own style...

wylde1919 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 Crazy train is the song that took me from playing guitar to being a Guitarist. Tapping runs are a pretty good way of the learning the technique if you dont already know how, and the rest of the solo is study in solo construction, this was no off the cuff solo. It was preplanned and fits the songs perfectly. My favorite song ever (revelation mother earth has a better solo though IMHO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveq Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 (revelation mother earth has a better solo though IMHO) That's a good one. How about Goodbye to Romance (from the tribute CD)? That solo is absolutely beautiful! Or - Mr. Crowley -- oh ya!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wylde1919 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 Daveq, don't even get me started! I am a Randyphile thru and thru. Course by my screen name you can probably tell im into any and all things ozzy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Course by my screen name you can probably tell im into any and all things ozzy! Excellent, any idea if the tribute stuff is tabbed on the web somewhere (hopefully powertab format)? I'd love to learn Mr. Crowley or that solo from Goodbye to Romance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowser Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 I love the solos from Mr. Crowley, but my favorite is, well, lots of Eddie's solos. But probably my favorite song right now is Satch's Crushing Day from surfing with the alien. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 i agree with alex...randy's solos were simple.very cool though,his rythm style was what made him special.but i really think jake e lee was the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westhemann Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 you know what i really dig?the way metallica ran those rythmic melodies in the interludes of their songs(battery,leper messiah) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 or intros to the solos...however you want to look at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Litchfield Custom Gutars Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 Yeah, the doubling would be hard to do live. I tried with a chorus, and it wasnt right. I think i might just take the staples from his solo and build my own, like I do with most covers. That way I dont have to put up with the ashole that always says "you played that note wrong", instead he can say "well, you changed the solo" and I can say "I'm not Randy, so why try to be him? You cant be something you're not!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 well the doubling is not meant to do live.playing a 2 string chord sounds way different than playing the same 2 notes of that chord with 2 guitars simultaneously.

westhemann Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 an octave splitter is neat,but it sounds too synth like because you aren't able to switch from 5ths to 3rds and back,for example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovekraft Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 I've got a PowerTab of a live version with a fairly accurate solo transcription - if anybody can use it, gimme a shout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wylde1919 Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 i agree with alex...randy's solos were simple.very cool though,his rythm style was what made him special.but i really think jake e lee was the best. I gotta disagree about Jake, but then again thats just my opinion, and we alll know the saying about opinions. I just felt like he was sloppier, and kind of a standard player. But i still play shot in the dark and bark at the moon like daily! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveq Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 Shot in the Dark rules!!! I was bummed when I found out it's played with a non-standard tuning . I hate re-tuning just for one damn song! I love that song though - the solo is great too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWishICouldShred Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 i agree with alex...randy's solos were simple.very cool though,his rythm style was what made him special.but i really think jake e lee was the best. so true man... bark at the moon! I can play most of the crazy train solo... I improv the F# minor shred runs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Librero Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 I could never decide for myself who was the best among Randy, Jake and Zakk. So I just say to myself they're all incredible players and comparing them is a waste of time because they have different approaches to their music and playing anyway.
