How fucking tragic. 25 years old. Dude didn’t do drugs and rarely drank. He was also going to quit Ozzy’s band to study classical music. He practiced his guitar 8 hours a day and gave guitar lessons in his free time. Watching him play guitar is a gift.
I heard Ozzy would slap him and belittle him in the studio and Randy was sick of it. Some folks criticize RR for having too much chorus effect in his tone but I like it. He was one of the greatest prodigies we've had the luxury of hearing. Didn't he start Quiet Riot as teen? He truly was gifted and seems like a solid dude. RIP
