OZZY OSBOURNE “I owe my career to him. When I first met Randy Rhoads, I thought he was a chick. I was absolutely smashed out of my face in Le Parc Hotel in Los Angeles. Dana Strum from the band Slaughter had introduced him to me. Randy came in, and he was this little guy of about 96 pounds wet. And I said, “This guy can’t hold a fucking guitar up, let alone play one.” But when I heard him play, I said, “I don’t know if I’m smoking some serious stuff or this guy’s better than any guy I’ve ever heard.” He was great. He was kind of like a gift from God.”
