careypeak23 ::: Favorites Eddie admits he didnt invent tapping, but he did redifine the guitar tone by building his own gear. His rhythmic attack was unheard of at the time. His speed without taps was the first in rock guitar. He was doing this in '75 when Randy sounded more like Neal Schon, who was shredding in '75, but not like eddie was doing. Yngwie took it to another planet. 07-07-08 14:35:43 _____________________________________________________
arod1989 ::: Favorites Dude Randy and Ed are both amazing, both innovative and both unique. But in all honesty Eds got a wayyyy better tone and Van Halen as a band is so much better than QR.Also forgetting the European scene, Randy and Ed take influence from Uli Roth and Michael Schenker. 07-07-11 04:00:55 _____________________________________________________
MrConeman ::: Favorites I have no qualms in admitting that Eddie was definitely the one that revolutionised rock guitar forever, he invented the style that many took on after him. But Randy with his classical knowledge took it to another level if you ask me, it's only my opinion. 07-07-11 09:01:13 _____________________________________________________
MrConeman ::: Favorites It's true, Eddie did redifine guitar tone and playing back then, and Van Halen were definitely the better band than early day Quiet Riot. But all of Randy's work with Ozzy is much much better than anything Eddie ever did. But that is of course only my opinion. 07-07-11 09:02:12 _____________________________________________________
MrConeman ::: Favorites I agree. Eddie and Randy were both great players, I'm not one to pick and choose, I'm a big Van Halen fan. I'm just a much larger Randy Rhoads fan than I ever was an Eddie fan. 07-07-11 09:03:33 _____________________________________________________
careypeak23 ::: Favorites eddie and alex were both classically trained pianists at 12 years old. They played in thier fathers jazz band in cliubs as kids. Eddie took the music through jazz(Allan Holdsworth),country(chickin pickin), classical and spanish pieces. And wrote ferocious rock riffs in one band. Spanish Fly,eruption,cathedrals,mean streets,and even jump are deep musical pieces. 07-07-11 12:00:18 _____________________________________________________

careypeak23 ::: Favorites Randy has a more metal approach with minor classical influences. Diminished scales and doubling of solos was his thing, and I love it. But to say eddie dosent master classical understanding would take me to hot for teachers taps, or the break in take your whiskey home. He was touch and go, a real life idiot savant. Randy was a student who was focused on a certain style, and was on his way to mastering it. 5150 describes eddie perfectly, he is a nutjob. His style is frankenstien. 07-07-11 12:06:58 _____________________________________________________
careypeak23 ::: Favorites Randy dosent piece so many different techniques and styles like eddie and stevie vai do. He had a very skewed sound which was creating the setting for ozzys madness. Eddie was creating the palates for styles of guitar. Engwie blows my mind the most the first time i heard him. Randy is the best as a person, and the other 2 could learn something from him. And his style was badass. Hi 5!!!! 07-07-11 12:10:19 _____________________________________________________
