  • Damn, there is something special within these pintch harmonic! I love 'em!

  • Oh my God... So many fucking pinch harmonics... I LOVE IT.

  • NEVER Zakk will be better than Randy NEVER

  • Zakk brought me here

  • One guys better than the other :D

  • Only an idiot would say shit like one guys better than the other.They are both big fuckin leaguers man come on with that shizz my nizz..

  • screw zack...... Randy is the best ever!!!!!!!! faggots

  • @CallOfDutyAllDayLong Zakk is actually better than Randy, srry whore.

  • gods good at guitar, but he's no Zakk Wylde

  • he is on guitar hero world tour right? with ozzy

  • oh damn, he just fucked up the most awesome part of the song! but im still gonna buy his guitar tho...

  • 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.

  • Randy Played a classical guitar. Zakk plays his Gibson. I think their both fuckin kick ass!!!! Rock on mother fuckers!!!

  • rr is better than that pice of sshhiitt

  • @xxgmd19xx O_O fuck u, rr is better, but zakk is awesome

  • @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.

  • @dkm29920 i agree, but im still sad that randy died, T_T

  • @xxgmd19xx fuck u piece of shit, theyre both fuckin 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

  • Im just tired of reading period.....EVERYBODYS A fuckin God

  • Very good

  • Rubbish . . .

    RR version incomparably better . . . Fact you don't like that perfectly accurate comment does not make it ignorant at all . . .

    Easy to say that if you do not like someone else's point of view - not make it right

    On that basis no one could have a view about anything and it all becomes only opinion

    If that's right what is point of a comments page?

    Also does not help that Z behaves like such a prat half the time

    Give me RR over Z every time !

  • cant we all just get along? :)

  • To me Zakk /Randy = Gods Of Guitar .

  • 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.

  • @MGabriel7767 You are totally right! I'm tired of reading comments that 'Randy is better' or 'Zakk's better'.

  • @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.

  • Comment removed

  • Zakk much superior than Randy., with all due Respect to Randy

  • @TobyHoly If you consider riding pinch harmonics through every song he ever plays "better"... then sure. Randy was a maestro.

  • OMFG!!!! i should punch you in the face for thinking zakk is better -__- he is good but randy was a GOD!!!!!

  • Zakk is doing a great job but no one can be like randy

  • is that the guitar that was stolen in Dallas and found years later in Palestine Texas?

  • i only listen to this for the pinch harmonics

  • @TKGoat same

  • @TKGoat same here lolll

  • The thing I hate about Zack is his excessive use of pinch harmonics. It's cool to throw one in there but I feel he does it a little too much

  • @nikeelitesquad123 I disagree, he maxes them in a good way imo.

  • @nikeelitesquad123

    thanks for saying that. Its his unique thing but when its there 2 seconds he sounds like a one trick pony

  • @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

  • Comment removed

  • Awesome!

  • Randy better than zakk, but zakk is fucking good too.

  • Why don't you cock suckers hear a live version of randy playing? I swear I almost peed my self

  • Comment removed

  • Randy and Dimebag went to heaven because god wanted to learn how to play guitar,but Zakk can't, cause god already learned how to play it.

  • @qkdrmstjr1 Zakk needs neither dime or randy to teach him ;)

  • 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

  • Zakk had merely 20 years more to improve on guitar compared to Randy!

    Randy was 22 when he died. Zakk is over 40 now

  • zakk cant play crazy train as good as randy cuz randy wrote the song. duh :)

  • Thumbs if you hear ozzy got a massage

    mental wounds wont healing

  • 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

  • @HeavyMetalFreak6667 any you still dont know how to spell his name

  • @marczaq do people like you have a life outside of correcting peoples online spelling errors, get a life

  • 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.

  • zakk>_rhoads

    >_ that means greater than or equal to

  • imo zakk > rhoads, but rhoas is god too

  • 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..

  • man they went sooo fast just to see if he could handle fuckers hahahah ozzy coulde barely keep up WTF???

  • Crazy Train had a writer ......and a follower. Randy was not the follower.

  • Randy was WAY better than Zakk!

  • randy, better .

  • i liked Randy's version better.

  • 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-

  • Totally got a thumbs down because of the dumb ass uploaders comment

  • "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.

  • zakk better than randy?

    and Justin bieber better than megadeth.. sure, sure.

  • @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!!!!

    btw - sorry for my english, I'm croatian ;)

  • @jozue95

    thats not exactly a fair comparison. zakk is still amazing, and undeniably saved ozzy's career.

  • @jozue95 even zakk says randy is better......

  • @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!

  • @jozue95 zakks a B glass guitarist.. randy was A

  • @rootbound420 bullshit mate you clearly havent heard much of zakks work

  • there was no justice to the song with zakk playing

  • zakk and randy are both way better than any of youu fucktards trying to compare them, but i think zakk is alot better than gus g :P

  • Randy rhoads dies. Cuz god created Zakk Wylde.

  • noob, rhoads is much better

  • randy never died he lives on through his line of jackson guitars

  • HEY MUTHERF**FERs! RANDY IS THE TRUE PLAYER!!

  • 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!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Too bad Randy is dead, I like them both ^^

  • zakk is the best now- randy is the best ever

  • 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.

  • randy did it for me...but i wish i could just sit and listen to him talk about anything...i mean after all i am a girl

  • 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!!!!!!!!!

  • @SUPERROCKER1970 Your dying for thumbs up, aren’t you?

  • @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"

  • Comment removed

  • If randy was alive now. Zakk wouldn't have a fucking job. get this straight.

  • @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 He'd still have his talent.

  • @jhonrox He would have started Black Label get that straight, even with out ozzy

  • @jhonrox *cough* black label society *cough*

  • @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.

  • @greggyk1 a.k.a Black label society

  • @jhonrox well to bad he isnt so get the fuck over it and enjoy

  • Comment removed

  • @jhonrox hahahaha i thought the same thing when i read the details!

  • @jhonrox you're fucking stupid

  • @jhonrox zakk would have a fucking job. you can't leave that awesomeness untouched.

  • @Bowl2010Man Believe me, There`s alot of untouched awesomeness in this world.

  • @jhonrox Yes he would, Randy was going to leave Ozzy after 1981 anyway, nothing would have actually been different.

  • @xXLuciferDarkheartXx You haven't heard of the butterfly effect have you?

  • @jhonrox wrong... he just wouldn't be working with ozzy

  • randy rhoads is Zack wylde idle even zack thinks and has said randy was by far the best guitarist to ever live

  • srry but 2 great guitar... but look for music who is best song for ozzy crazy train or mr.crowl... who is best music for zakk?? but zakk is very good

  • Zakk Wylde sucks. Randy Rhoads is so much better

  • @erikfeves

    Between Zakk and Randy. I conclude: you (erikfeves) sucks

  • @erikfeves zakk dosent suck if he sucked he couldnt play all of randy's stuff besides he kills everything and everyone in BLS

  • ewwwwww zakk wylde

  • alot of peeple compaire Zakk Wilde and God. I know he's good, but he is no Zakk Wilde.

  • @19jrsd93 You my friend, just blew my mind

  • is a stupid comparison! the two are great!

  • there is not 1 string or 1 fret zakk can't hit a pinch harmonic on.

  • How can you say Zakk is "Way better" THan Randy?

    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.

  • DAMM IMAGEN ALL THE GOOD STUFF RANDY WOULD OF CAME UP WITH IF HE WAS STILL ALIVE R.I.P RANDY

  • wtf why does he have to use pinch harmonics?

  • @liveandletrock864 because they are awesome

  • Before I heard this I didn't think Zakk lived up to Randy's standards, but DAMN this is pretty good.

  • here is my list of best guitarist

    1.zakk wylde,randy rhoads,tonni iommi,kyle gass and jack black

  • Zakk wylde is the master , i went to a black label society concert in the last week that was insane he is the master !!

  • there is no best guitarist but randy is really one of the best

  • i just hate how zakk wylde has to do pinch harmonics every 5 fucking seconds

  • If not for Randy their would be no Zack Wylde.. So True

  • ozzy ousbournes was better, but this is still amazing

  • @Jakeanater9 You're trolling... right?

  • @Jakeanater9 who is ozzy ousbourne? this is ozzy osbourne and this is the best version of this song besides the version on tribute album

  • Zakk is badass, but not better than randy.

  • kirk hammit from metallica is the best by far !!!!!!!!!

  • @killervideos12340123 I hate you!

  • @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 ROFLOLMAO. You're funny.

  • @killervideos12340123 Hammit ._.

    That bitch sucks!

  • @killervideos12340123 hey man im a big Tallica fan and a HUGE Kirk Hammett fan but... hes by far NOT the best guitarist. OBVIOUS TROLL IS OBVIOUS.

  • @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..... ♠

  • what the hell is the purpose of the still picture instead of a video? what a joke. you a hard ass zakk? youre a pussy.

  • There is no comparison here. They are equal!

  • 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.

  • @GordonFreeman70

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

  • @GordonFreeman70 he died at 25:( too bad

  • @GordonFreeman70 he died at age 25, actually..

  • @GordonFreeman70 age 25

  • @GordonFreeman70 he died at 24

  • @GordonFreeman70 actually he died at 25

  • @GordonFreeman70 actually Randy was 25 when he was killed... 25 years 3 months appx

  • @GordonFreeman70 randy rhoads died in age of 26 ;)

  • @GordonFreeman70 they ARE gods. Ormagodden has told me so

  • Randy Rhoads?

  • 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!

  • Its Good but randy is so much better becuz he didnt play fuckn emgs

  • i love both! Randy is always gonna be one of the greats....and Zakk is an amazing guitarist.....u cant say whos better because their both awsome!!!

  • 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.

  • Randy wrote this song, but Zakk is a good guitarist.

  • ZAKK 4 EVER!

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • of course its amazing

  • Randy is way better that zakk will ever be. Randy was way more creative also you don't need pinch Harmonics every fucking note

  • Zakk - Y U NO STOP RUINING RANDY RHOADS SONGS WITH PINCH HARMONICS ?

  • !!!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

  • Zakk is great,BUT,let us give credit to the Originator !! (But BOTH these guys have UNREAL talent !!! I like both.)

  • Thats such a stupid comment. Two completely different players.

  • 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

  • @trailbikerharo well dude its kinda working. wuddnt wanna mess with him....

  • 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.

  • 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

  • bullshit half of the worlds rock music 2 day wouldnt have happend without randy
