i still think randy rhoads is way better since he was already better then zakk but he was only 22-26, so even if some of you think zakk was better, randy rhoads was much younger and had much more potential.
@jaferhassan Randy WAS better, and Zakk is awesome, only thing is, Zakk was awesome even without being with Ozzy, that was just his chance at a venue for people to see his talent, being as Randy is dead, it just goes to show that Ozzy knows talent when he sees it... 2 of the greatest Guitarists ending up in the same band... now THATS awesome.
i feel with zakk wylde it becomes more of a heavy track, with the D standard tuning and the Increased speed, but i prefer the RR version for clarity and tonality, as his was less focused on being crunchy powerchords and pinch harmonics
Everybody. Music is NOT a competition. It's not about guitarist A being able to play better than guitarist B or C. It's about expressing yourself and being creative. Zakk played Crazy Train his way. It was no better, and no worse than Randy's way. It's the way he chose to express himself. If you can't understand that than you need to at least stop posting ignorant comments about it.
@spinninfred Finally. someone with some sense. I don't like the way he played it, and it's not technically "right", but it's his way. Some people just give me headaches with their ignorance.
@StormReefProductions Totally agreed. I know all artists have to come up with their trademark but zakk's ph's get old after a while. Not dissing his playing though
Zak Wylde best showman, Randy Rhoads died before his time what a shame was a great rock guitarist. both with Ozzy, mad bad fucking rock shows that a fact Jack
This is how I'd rank ozzy's guitarists 1.Randy Rhodes 2. Jake e lee 3. zakk wylde 4.Gus g, don't get me wrong, zakk is a great guitarist, but i think Randy and Jake had a purer sounding style of play with way less effects
idk if hes better than randy roads, thats a little high in rankin dont you think. they both have there versions, yes i tend to think that zakks version is a bit better. but randy roads, i know im spellin it wrong but idk how, played the first crazy train track. zakks version may be better than randys, but randy is, was, better than zakk wylde. askem who was better. zakk will say randy.
Randy was the first to play this way, he was the most influential. But Zakk can outplay Randy any day of the week and thats the truth. In other words the student has outgrown the master..
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for our sins, was buried and rose again on the 3rd day so that all who believe on Him will be saved from Hell and have eternal life in Heaven. Call upon Jesus Christ and believe on Him for the free gift of eternal life. God loves you- Jesus is the way.
forros a esta altura de la vida, subiendo musica con una foto de fondo, ma ta te infeliz y no subas cosas pe do rras y no hagas perder el tiempo a lso demas-
"To me zakk is way better than randy!" ????????? I bet you Zakk would be the first to disagree with you. I almost gave this video a thumbs down just for that remark but I like Zakk too much to do it.
@jozue95 it's redundant even to compare the 2 ;) they both rule...one used to rule 20ish years ago, the other rules now...so don't even bother, because there will always be some annoying kid who thinks he got the smarts, and that bieber is the best point blank ;)
therefor - just relax and enjoy this glorious noise made by hard rock gods!!!!
@jozue95 Why does one of them have to be better than the other. THey are two different persons with two different styles of playing. Also: Randy died young and would have evolved as a musician if he got older.
I appreciate both of them, they both give me so much with their playing!
randy Rhodes still rules!!!!!!!!!!!! I saw Him in Phoenix new years day two months before he died in 82 and it is still one of the best shows I've ever seen!!!!!!!!!!!!
Zakk is an amazing guitarist, with some great original work. but how can someone say that this is a better version of the song?, all he does is plays it in drop C tuning and adds some squeals. Sounds great but nothing too original about it. Again, dont get me wrong, Zakk is fucking awesome, but this is Randy's song and should be played just like he played it.
I GUESS THAT ALL THIS DISCUSSION ABOUT "WHO IS THE BEST" IS BULLSHIT!!! RANDY IS RANDY!! ZAKK IS ZAKK!! IT'S TWO DIFERENTE GUYS, WITH DIFERENT STYLES!!! ZAKK EVER TALK ABOUT RANDY WITH GREAT RESPECT. TWO GREAT GUITARRIST AND WE AREA A M************ LUCKIEST GUYS IN THE WORLD TO APRECIAT THIS FANTASTIC SONGS!!!!!!!!!
@PBANDSNOW MY FRIEND. I'M A JUST A MAN THAT LIVES IN A SMALL TOWN IN SOUTH OF BRAZIL. I'M LIKE ROCK N ROLL AND HEVAY METAL - IT'S MY LIFE! I'M JUST THIN K THAT ALL OF US MUST TO BE UNITED!! METAL UNITED!! A GREAT "ABRAÇO" , MY FRIEND"
@jhonrox Actually I read somewhere that Randy was thinking about quitting Ozzy's band to focus more on classical so Zakk may have still ended up with Ozzy. Besides Zakk has Black Label Society and isn't even in Ozzy's band anymore. Randy is better though.
@jhonrox not entirely true there where rumors going around that Randy was going to leave Ozzy and study the Classic Guitar, so if that was true Ozzy would've ended up with Zakk
@jhonrox Oh Zakk would still have a job alright. It wouldn't be with Ozzy because everyone knows how much Ozzy loved Randy and Randy's playing. But I can guarantee everyone that reads my retort, he would still have been either with one of the greatest bands in the world or he would have put one together.
@jhonrox to say that Zakk would not have a job... Open your ears you might hear that he has just a little talent. I'm sure some pour little band out there could use him. But you say that he wouldn't have a fucking job because he sucks right.... Yea, sounds like he is sucking so fucking hard right now. Right!!!
Zakk took basicly all of his influence from Randy, if you were a true Zakk Fan im sure you'd know that anyway. And why compare the living to the dead, very disrespectful as it may be, but think if Randy had of lived on, how much of a better guitarist he'd be nowadays. So really, Zakk doesnt hold a candle to him. And i say that very unwillingly.
@killervideos12340123 Kirk Fagmett is a skid mark on randy's and zakk's underpants. Dave Mustaine was the only reason I ever listened to Metallica in my life, all of the stuff after he was kicked was just shit
@killervideos12340123 lol hammet couldnt hold a candle to zakk or randy- metallica hasnt had a relevant album since 92 and that wasnt that good of an album
♠ I'm not even thinking of getting into this discussion, I simply like both Zakk & Randy (R.I.P). Both extremely talented ! Kind of a dumbass 'video' unless starting this discussion was the whole idea..... ♠
Randy Rhoads? Dude that guy died at age 22 a LONG time ago. So don't even compare the two guitarists. They both played like gods, and will both be dead as gods. Plain and simple.
zakk may not necessarily be better than randy was, but there isnt a day of the week that anyone should take anything from zakk. he is a modern day guitar god. and my personal preference. his tones are fucking nasty, and no one plays with more attitude. just watch his play it. he makes the guitar his goddamn biiiitch!
ok first of all half the people who posted comments on this video are FUCKING IDIOTS, u cannot compare the two guitarists period. They both have amazing skill and are better by themselves then every1 who viewed this put together, but they are different styles, zakk is a much heavier player and distortion user than randy, but it still sounds great, u people need to shut the fuck up and enjoy the song or go to a new video. damn
When a band signs up a contract with a record company it's like "OK, it'll be 4 records in 6 years"; When Zakk signs up one it`s like "OK, it'll be 6 pinched harmonics every minute, on every song, on every record"...Still it's not that bad, just has this kind of addiction.
Zakk Wylde is a great guitarist, no doubt about that, its just he has his own style that differs from Randy's, its just the matter of which one you prefer, some people prefer Zakk some prefer randy, personally i prefer randy but that doesn't mean that they both aren't great guitarists, its just a matter of opinion
I'm just waiting for Zakk to die so I can piss on his grave for doing this to Randy's song. I guess if you can't play it right just over abuse those artificial harmonics and fake your way through it eh Zakk?
!!!RANDY!!! zakk puts a damn pinch harmonic in every damn riff he plays..I love squeels and pinch harmonics but jesus every other note don't need to be pinched
i could actually give more respect to zack wylde if he never thought he was such a bad ass. he thinks becuase he drinks beer and has long haid and long beerd and plays a guitar hes tough. lmao
I agree with @zoomzilla67 pinch harmonics overused. The whole motif of the train get lost with Zakk's version. RR used controled feedback in the beginning to simulate the sound of a train wheel's high pitched screech. Even the main verse progression (A - D/A - E/A - A) is played with to sound like a train chugging (albeit quickly). All that is completely lost on Zakk. Not putting Zakk down, I just don't think he gets subtlety.
Damn, there is something special within these pintch harmonic! I love 'em!

♠ I'm not even thinking of getting into this discussion, I simply like both Zakk & Randy (R.I.P). Both extremely talented ! Kind of a dumbass 'video' unless starting this discussion was the whole idea..... ♠

Randy Rhoads? Dude that guy died at age 22 a LONG time ago. So don't even compare the two guitarists. They both played like gods, and will both be dead as gods. Plain and simple.

Randy was actually 25 not 22 When he died. But you're right, don't compare the two becuse they're both good.

The pinch harmonics ruin the nostalgia and pure epicness of Randy's riff

zakk may not necessarily be better than randy was, but there isnt a day of the week that anyone should take anything from zakk. he is a modern day guitar god. and my personal preference. his tones are fucking nasty, and no one plays with more attitude. just watch his play it. he makes the guitar his goddamn biiiitch!

ok first of all half the people who posted comments on this video are FUCKING IDIOTS, u cannot compare the two guitarists period. They both have amazing skill and are better by themselves then every1 who viewed this put together, but they are different styles, zakk is a much heavier player and distortion user than randy, but it still sounds great, u people need to shut the fuck up and enjoy the song or go to a new video. damn

When a band signs up a contract with a record company it's like "OK, it'll be 4 records in 6 years"; When Zakk signs up one it`s like "OK, it'll be 6 pinched harmonics every minute, on every song, on every record"...Still it's not that bad, just has this kind of addiction.

Zakk Wylde is a great guitarist, no doubt about that, its just he has his own style that differs from Randy's, its just the matter of which one you prefer, some people prefer Zakk some prefer randy, personally i prefer randy but that doesn't mean that they both aren't great guitarists, its just a matter of opinion

Zakk Wylde is a faggot. All he does is fuck up Randy Rhoads songs with his retarded overuse of pinch harmonics.
TheShankPimp 6 months ago
I'm just waiting for Zakk to die so I can piss on his grave for doing this to Randy's song. I guess if you can't play it right just over abuse those artificial harmonics and fake your way through it eh Zakk?

I agree with @zoomzilla67 pinch harmonics overused. The whole motif of the train get lost with Zakk's version. RR used controled feedback in the beginning to simulate the sound of a train wheel's high pitched screech. Even the main verse progression (A - D/A - E/A - A) is played with to sound like a train chugging (albeit quickly). All that is completely lost on Zakk. Not putting Zakk down, I just don't think he gets subtlety.

Zakk is good, but Randy was way better technically. Zakk's overuse of pinch harmonics drives me nuts.
zoomzilla67 6 months ago
just listen the song . stop the comparisons already.....-__-

It's just because Zack has a more heavy and deeper sound/image...which is really more popular and modern.
Randy is better of course tho
