This is the album that introduced me to Randy Rhoads. Randy WAS MY DUDE. I LOVED the mixture of classic and heavy metal, and I learned every note on every record. It took me hours, but I did it.\xa0

When Randy died in 1982 it wrecked me.

My hero was dead.

I wore a black armband to school to show I was in mourning.\xa0

I found a clip on YouTube with Randy explaining how to play Revelation mother Earth, and that was the song that I was like WHAT? as well as Mr. Crowley.\xa0
