Ozzy Osbourne - Mr. Crowley (live 1995)

[paulodiazz]

Joe Holmes was a Randy's pupil, he took guitar lessons with Rhoads in the 70's. Ozzy said in a interview that when joe played with the band was almost like playing with Randy Rhoads again

[AlissonTarra1]

RANDY é perfeito :D

[fenderman441]

joe is a god !! if you guys want a good sounding guitar buy a real fucking expensive one in the thousand ranges enough said

[Liverofrobbo]

Randy,Jake then Joe.Just think Zakk is too heavy sounding to play these tunes

[melihsahcan]

0:10 illuminati

[gullywoots]

I was there. I was 16 at that time. Faith no More was there, promoting King For a Day, and Megadeth Youthanasia. They also had Alice Cooper and some other more.

You can't see it in the video but that was a large stadium that was packed as heck.

[LaMasTuaniDeTodas1]

I'm 13 and he is 63 now... I don't care. I want to marry him. HE IS SOOO FUCKING AWESOME!!!!! DDDDx

[kranen1]

The guitarist here sucks. Very sloppy solo

[rallyivan1234]

@kranen1 your ass is very sloppy

[kranen1]

@rallyivan1234 Sloppy with your mom. But still, the guitarist sucks on the solo ^^ You probably don't know so much about guitar playing =)

[rallyivan1234]

@kranen1 It is likely, Zakk's solos Randy ruins with horrific overtones, Joe instead was a student of Randy Rhoads.

[kranen1]

@rallyivan1234 Yeah, Zakk overplays it a little. I like Jake E Lee's version the best of the guitarists after Randy. He gave it his own touch =) Brad Gillis made it justice aswell. Gus G plays it well too, but more note for note :)

[rallyivan1234]

@kranen1 Jake I like one of my favorites is the intermediate between Randy and Zakk, Brad Gillis was the only guitarist who could sound like Ozzy Iommi so names that I like:)

Discs with Zakk that I like are "No More Tears" and "Ozzmosis".

[novamoon1000]

this dude is crazy but he write amazing song!!!

[TheKabasti]

guitar player not that good or probably zakk is to beastly...

[rallyivan1234]

@TheKabasti Joe is a monster, Zakk sucks ;)

[mgenty2k5]

They need to show more Geezer - you barely see him

[B7ackRider]

i wanna know whos that dancer at the beginning.

[GuitarIsMyCrack]

woah zakk lost weight!!!

[1201zj]

I love the bend he does in the "Mr crowleyyyyy" part. Ha. And he has a sick tone! Joe is very underrated.

[rallyivan1234]

Geezer Butler on Mr. Crowley???

WTF!!!???

[brandonosbourne]

3:01 minutes into this all cut ozzy

[IWinkedAtMyDad]

this guy kicks zakk's ass

[TheAiK11]

Straszliwie chujowy ma ten statyw na mikrofon. Co chwilę się zsuwa

[jmripper69]

Joe the protege' of Randy....

[dmarins]

I was there, Joe Holmes sucks

[dlwile33]

If I had to rank all of Randy's replacements it would be..

1. Jake E. Lee

2. Gus. G.

3. Joe Holmes

4. Zakk Wylde

5. Brad Gillis

6. Bernie tormie

[948tumali]

@dlwile33

Where's Rhoads.??? King of Guitars!!!

[948tumali]

@dlwile33

[ihavesexforhappymeal]

@dlwile33

Honestly I don't know who any of those are except Joe & Zakk, but thank you for agreeing with me that Joe was better :)

[ronaalexandre]

Uma das melhores noites da minha juventude!!!

[Ahriman75]

The Strat sounds so much lighter than the Sandoval!

[andreamoraissp]

i was there

[kingak02]

I think Joe Holmes was the best guitarist ever since Randy Rhoads being that he was his stundent sounds pretty killer and Zakk was good but to loud cant really hear the solos that well plus Joe nails every solo like its nothin i would love for ozzy to bring him back to show what he can really do!!!! but i was a major fan of Zakk Wylde being he has his own bluesy style wich is killer!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kingak02]

I think Joe Holmes was the best guitarist ever since Randy Rhoads being that he was his stundent sounds pretty killer and Zakk was good but to loud cant really hear the solos that well plus Joe nails every solo like its nothin i would love for ozzy to bring him back to show what he can really do!!!!

[mannybiomed]

i agree! Joe is a freaking beast...

[truckintheband]

Joe's Pickups????? Anyone?????

[peterpetree]

@truckintheband joe used dimarzio super distortion in the bridge pick up

[krollaostmedburger]

I just hate that so many guitarplayers try to sound like Randy. It is better to get your own style!

[EDDYCHAMOUN]

Guyssss !!!! I think that this is not Randy Rhoads playing on the electric guitar cause Randy is dead since 1982 .

See Randy Rhoads Life Career on the Wikipedia

Even Randy is dead but his soul is still living.

[truckintheband]

Joes Sound has so much presence... it cuts through like a knife

[crawling211]

i wasnt there..........

[rallyivan1234]

Mike Bordin on drums or Deen Castronovo?

[hankazaria]

@rallyivan1234 deen. 

[leyenda4537]

En verdad que no lo puedo creer, pero es el mejor cover de Mr. crowley que he visto, ni zakk lo hace tan asombroso como este tipo.

[CacoWho]

This guy is fucking underrated, he plays so fucking great!

[BenDover118A]

Nobody has yet got Randy Rhoads' sound. Even if they tried they couldnt nail it. Thats a true genius.

[ozzy1jack]

quien es el de la guitarra

[Elluen]

Got impressed by the guitarist. He doesen't exagerate with the bendings and effects like Zakk normally do.

[Metalstryke]

@Elluen but he plays it almost exactly like Randy so he doesnt add anything to it, hes a student of Randy's and it shows. but no substance of his own

[kathrien321]

epicist guitar solo i heard

[dku001]

for a second, I thought he was Slash......

[hideyasoki]

1:35 ozzy trying to summon Randy

[rafaburiham]

Eu estava la tb!!!! Demais, nossa....ja faz 15 anos isso.....!!! Saudades

Acho que o melhor show da minha vida, estive em 2000epouco com o Zakky no brasil tb!!!

Ozzy é fodaaaaaa!!!!!!

[TheBloomForest]

The Best!

[hundanth]

Rhoads>Brad Gillis (just because he learned everything so fast and played well with little notice)>Holmes>Lee>Wylde>Gus

Thats how it goes IMO :P

[mariopainthero11]

I Was born in 1995 :) but too bad for me that i don't to get to hear alot of this then crappy music :(

[Ktronica]

This is Joe Holmes, the student of Randy Rhoads, Sound very close to the teacher. Very close but never iqual.

[Niro1001]

Ozzy....is the best....Joe Holmes is very big guitarrist...I prefer...

[zappa621]

Jonh Holmes é fenomenal, também prefiro ele no lugar de Zakk embora também seja um ótimo guitarrista.

[81giorikas]

holmes incredible...

[gregalon]

Wow, Joe Holmes has some fantastic tone here. Warm and punchy. Excellent player, even though it always seemed like he was just sort of a placeholder in the Ozzy camp.

[SilverTounge85]

I kind of lost track after 1992 w. Ozzy. Who is in this lineup apart from Ozzy of course.

Anyway, great performance.

[Ktronica]

Joe Holmes is amazing guitarrist, His teacher was Randy Rhoads., is why the presence of Randy is in his riffs. I do not understand, why Ozzy did not think about him before contracting Gus G, Joe Holmes is much better that Zakk and Gus G.

[MistressFabiola]

He play much better than Gus G, I don´t like Gus G style.

[IMurderdTheDevil]

You can hear all the chords from this guitar player than Zakk.

[hallooo11111]

who is this guitarist?i think he´s great and he is the only one who sounds like randy!!!ozzy why don´t you took him for your new album?

[mriver72]

I think Ozzy should have kept Joe Holmes he sounds a lot better than ZAKK he almost sounds like Randy....

[colevanblaricom]

Amazing just Fucking Amazing

[Oftenezeefachezee]

thee original prince of darkness, keep on rocking OZZ!!!

[CRFromHell]

where it I can download????????

[pontoflutuante]

Is that Deen Castronovo there? LMFAO at 3:40, he's a God.

[pontoflutuante]

Is that Deen Castronovo? LMFAO at 3:40, he's a God.

[KenPstudios]

I wish I could be there Hi rocks !!

[KenPstudios]

Ozzy Rocks >:D

[truckintheband]

damb i love how stratocasters dig into those notes!!!!!!

[Hardcorerocker24]

wow this is a really good performance by Joe. Im not a big fan of wylde, but u can definitly see a LITTLE bit of influence from zakk. and this is also the CLEAREST IVE HEARD THIS HARMONY SINCE RANDY

[Chickenfuneralbucket]

This is so great, joe holmes, way better than zack wylde but Zack is still pretty fuckin badass

[visiteur00000]

I don't know who the guitarist is but best version ever (after Randy Rhoads of course)

[kataboy]

very excellent

[spiritofryu]

omfg i love how the camera man does a close up on the first guitar solo

[abuhola8]

what guitarist was in this tour ???

[988al]

yeah zakk doesnt play it like Randy

joe was really good

[pianomansoon]

this is a great song i have a piano arrangement of mr. crowley on my channel check it out

[BrasilGuitar]

i was there.........

[spropaganda]

You lucky guy!

[mrdeersniper]

@BrasilGuitar Cool

[MrGhostface2001]

@BrasilGuitar How was 1995?

[abbg321]

I like how Joe was able to play it like Randy Very well done Joe! 10 out of 10

[roderbigliazzi]

Viva Ozzy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Met0llicA]

i dont like the guitarists hair :/

[xxcharlysxx]

jaja who is the goddamn guitar player

[novemberrain1994]

Joe Holmes!

[RockbertoRocks]

Joes Holmes is such a great guitarist... he was a student of Randy Rhoads. What a shame there are no studio recordings of him. No offense to Zakk, but Joe Holmes is much more melodic, cleaner and talented. He makes justice to Randy's legacy. Rock on, Joe!!

GREAT POST, THANKS!

[iggirocks]

Totally agree. no one channelled Randy better than Joe. Zakk is great but there's not a lot of soul in his playing, Randy was all about feeling and soul. Joe gets is.

[Ktronica]

It sublimates. Joe Holmes is really good.

[ninjafreak191]

I love the little arguments in the comment boxes. One guy is always calling the other guy stupid, but making a dick of himself, and the other guy is just kinda sitting back like "Wow, your a dick." and no ones ever on the first guys side.

[arran8910]

Love it, i have to say my favourite Ozzy guitarist is still jake E. lee... hmm

[Met0llicA]

mine too :) but i love to say that my favorite guitarrist is jake e lee :D

[novemberrain1994]

Mines is Randy Rhoads or Dimebag Darrell!

[OnlyMyProduct]

no 1 ever will place randy and no 1 even close to hes sound.

[newGUNSnROSES2009]

jake e. lee sounded very simillar

[TheLobogm]

I like Randy Rhoads but i love Zakk Wylde playng .And anyone , cant play with ozzy ...........Only Zakk or Randy .

[Slash950]

that's right

[TheOgrelord]

Ktronica, I agree, nice to hear a version of Mr. Crowley without the squeals after each phrase. I saw Ozzy with Joe back in 97-98 and just a fantastic show. Ozzy was sick but he still kicked ass. Holmes was spot on, too bad he didn't stick with Ozzy.

[Ktronica]

I love the sound and style of Joe Holmes much more that Zakk, Holmes play a little close of Randy´s sound.

Now the attacks of Zakk fans, lol

[vionorino]

that's because he was the student of Randy Rhoads , god bless his soul !! good people die young

[sinphonyh]

@Ktronica ....... Well, just to let you know that when Zakk plays guitar you can't hardly ever hear unwanted noise....... Joe, ummmhhhh

[IMurderdTheDevil]

@Ktronica I agree.

[Ktronica]

@IMurderdTheDevil Thanks.

[shaindaman13]

@Ktronica I don't like to compare any of them. Im the biggest Zakk fan ever but I know Joe Holmes was mind blowing and yes, he does do the RR stuff well. ALL of Ozzy's guitarists were phenomenal.

[Ktronica]

@shaindaman13 Yes is true, 100% in agreement with you. Keep Rockin

[Metalstryke]

@Ktronica He was a student of Randy maybe thats why

[rallyivan1234]

@Ktronica Joe think he does a tribute to Randy, a tribute to his teacher playing an exceptional style.

[standolfo]

@Ktronica  I do agree with you !!

[themetalgod21]

@Ktronica i loved joe's playing !!!!!!!He played zakks stuff note for note and even better at times and i liked the way he interpreted the songs.

[vionorino]

Joe Holmes rocks!

[tmwnat]

FAR better than Zack Wylde!!!!

[busteroo7]

SPEECHLESS HATERS NEED NOT APPLY

[parkersvx90210]

As far as I'm concerned, this is Ozzy's heaviest line-up, Dean Castronovo is all over that kit and Joe is just amazing, he hits every squeel but doesn't do it every other note like Zakk Mild does.

[aligatorsandwitch72]

hey, you misspelled it, its Zakk Mylde stupid

dammit i hate stupid people

[SuperGoofy13]

Zakk Mylde???? ...ok....

[wwechamp00001]

its zakk wylde

[aligatorsandwitch72]

You are a very intelligent person. I bet you think Wrestling is real too.

[wwechamp00001]

lol at least i'm intelligent enough to not call people stupid for misspelling something and then misspell it myself!

[aligatorsandwitch72]

Wow, dude you keep adding to your intellect. Tell me, have you ever heard of Sarcasm mister wwechamp00001?

[wwechamp00001]

damn dude, you take shit way too seriously, its not the end of the world if someone spells some word wrong. I think your just getting on here looking for a fight man.

[aligatorsandwitch72]

Oh really eh, you sure? Is that your professional opinion?

[wwechamp00001]

ok your right, I apologise. I was not aware that your life depended on weather a word is spelled "mylde" or "mild". man you got too much time on your hands if you get mad at someone for that, why don't you go do something usefull with your time like...save a rainforest or something? damn

[wwechamp00001]

Now here's my proffessional opinion, your are speechless.

[aligatorsandwitch72]

This has gone too long for you to continuing thinking this.. I was joking when i said Zakk Mylde. OOOHOH BIG SCHOCKER. I cant believe you are so damn stupid.

[Ozmo07]

Joe Holmes is amazing in this video. More than any other of Ozzy's guitarists, Joe seems to keep the songs sound pretty "original." Oh sure--there are changes, but what I love about Joe is that he is so completely under-appreciated!!!

[lithead64]

Joe is by far Ozzy's best guitarist since Randy. As his student he told Joe "your as good as me now, all you need is experience" he got that now! I know Ive been his freind since high school.

[brokenstrings97]

i dont know who that guitarist is but if its jake then i hate this vid I HATE JAKE E LEE he is a show off trying to prove he was the greatest guitarist for ozzy ever Randy blows him out of the water so jake just needs to forget he was ever a guitarist for ozzy bc Randy was three times as good as Jake would ever be and zakk was twice as good so he was the worst guitarist they ever had :L

[lawson25303]

the guitarist was Joe Holmes, he breifly toured with ozzy, he was a student of Randy Rhoads.

[JohnCorsale]

what do you meen breifly

he was in ozzy longer then rhoads was

[parkersvx90210]

Dude, Jake E Lee was the best guitarist. The Ultimate Sin is a great album.

[xperimetal]

The great Geezer Butler ( from sabbath) is playng the bass in this show. WHY THEY DONT SHOW HIM PLAYNG THE MOTHER FUCKING BASS????

[RandyRhoads1956a1982]

now i know whos buckethead, joe holmes xD his hair, long fingers, tall...haha!!..

[chippedbeef08]

Any guitarist that has played with Ozzy was awesome! Randy was the best, Toni Iommi second and the brutal Zakk Wylde comes in third in my opinion!

[myinternetnam3]

Joe Holmes is so fucking awesome!

[jackolepcheur]

the perfect team

Jake e LEE on lead guitar

Randy castillo on drum

daisy (forget the name) on the bass

Sinclair on keyboard

[aligatorsandwitch72]

bob its bob...

[kajfksfdklsf]

robert trujillo is the best bass player ever to play with ozzy, rudy sarzo is after him

[Soulfly91]

Brad Daisley

[rallyivan1234]

@jackolepcheur Bob Daisley

[darthlordofthesith9]

i really wish randy was alive he would own half the guitarist today

[bucketheadisawesome]

all we need is a witch doctor...

[strife189]

this guy good

[Jkminek]

this is joe holmes rite?

[Templer1066]

yop;)

[HellHammerX]

any relation to John?

[marioyuc95]

I love this show
