@ramblingypsyrose: Randy Rhoades was the co-founder and original guitarist of the heavy metal band Quiet Riot. He reached his peak as the guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne's solo career, performing on tracks including "Crazy Train" and "Mr. Crowley" on the Blizzard of Ozz album. "Crazy Train" features one of the most well-known heavy metal guitar riffs. He died in a plane crash while on tour with Osbourne in Florida in 1982. Despite his short career, Rhoads is regarded as a pivotal figure in metal music, credited with pioneering a fast and technical style of guitar soloing that largely defined the metal scene of the 1980s #RandyRhoades #QuietRiot #OzzyOsbourne #RamblinGypsyRose
