Man that's a real shame! Too bad they couldn't have gotten a distribution deal here. NB blew it!

His legacy to metal is massive but what is truly amazing is that most of it happened in less than 10 years.

Fuck you Lars!
Awe that's nice, and to think I ordered you a Lars toilet!
Aw wtf.I've got Tantara but my copy of Schiz is yet to arrive
Yeah a very short time. And only two studio and one live album. And yet his shadow stretches ever the whole metal world decades later. And probably always will.

Aw wtf.
The email says it's shipped, but I didn't order it on release day so I knew I'd have to wait.

He also did two albums with Quiet Riot, a bit more hard rockish than Ozzy but still heavier than anything QR released.
Hahaha. Oh right! I always forget about those. My first, and last Quiet Riot was Metal Health (my brothers) and I don't think he was on that. I don't think I've ever heard anything with him and QR.
Now I'm remembering the solo on Come on feel the noize. Was that him?

Nope, Europe. I ordered it off their website, paid too much for shipping but my local claimed they couldn't get it.
I hoped you looked at them with complete disgust!

He was on QR I and II and what he did would barely be remembered if he was still alive because it wasn't a scratch on what he did with Ozzy. But listening to it you can hear elements of the Randy that would evolve.

Sadly it does no good, I've been giving them dirty looks for years when they say they can't get stuff in. Sometimes with minor label or independent stuff I give them a bit of a break, but then they went and made me wait for over a month to get Exodus. (actually that wasn't their fault but I'm still blaming them)
Yeah for sure. I'm glad he hooked up with Oz! That's what I kind of remember about the QR stuff. Even though I don't think I've heard it. Maybe I heard a demo with him on it.

Ozzy and Sharon knew what he was capable of, obviously so did his mother, but she wasn't necessarily thinking of a life of metal for him. If he'd stayed in QR he'd have been just another guitarist, even with him writing the songs they were never going to write the sort of songs he excelled at.

The thing that shits me about Schiz is that they are on, or distributed by Napalm, yet my local shop reckons they couldn't find them on the release list.
