34 years ago this week, we were shocked by the news of one of rock’s biggest tragedies. Despite his alleged fear of flying, 25 year old Ozzy rising guitar god, Randy Rhoads was killed along with two others in a plane crash at Leesburg, Florida after a joyride on March 19, 1982 . Randy's genius singular guitar playing was an essential part of Ozzy's success a solo artist after leaving Black Sabbath. “We had a great rapport together,” a still-mourning Osbourne told Guitar Player just months after Rhoads was gone. “We loved each other very dearly. I swear to God, the tragedy of my life is the day he died.”

Join us tonight at 6:20 for live Ozzy Osbourne in memory of Randy on the WBLM Mini-Concert.
