A California kid, raised in his Mom's music school, his musical dreams seemed to come easy to him. After becoming too good to teach, his guitar teacher told his Mom there was nothing more he could teach her son, he studied music theory and the piano, While in middle school he and his buddy Garni started a band called The Whore, then after a while they started a cover band called Violet Fox, and another called Mildred Pierce.
At the age of 16, after his last project the Katzenjammer Kids faded, he had his day job teaching at his Mom's music school; Musonia and at night he dominated the LA Club scene with his latest band: Quiet Riot! Initially, not popular in the US, they were very well received in Japan's rock movement at the time. After unenthusiastically auditioning for Ozzy Osbourne at the urging of friends, he blows the roof off the studio. Ozzy was so impress he offered him the job on the spot, only to forget ever meeting the kid from California.
After living w/ Ozzy and his family in England, he became one of the most influential lead guitarists of all time, but while touring the US w/ the Blizzard of Ozz, a terrible bus accident would change the Rock 'N Roll landscape forever. Recalibrate you receivers to hear the really rare rowdiness of Rock Royalty, Randy Rhoads!
