Randy Rhoads

"He was great at coming up with riffs. I remember we were at a party in a rehearsal studio in London for the band Wild Horses. Everybody else was really fucked up, but Randy was sitting in a corner with his Flying V, just twiddling along on it. Suddenly he started playing this amazing riff. I went, “What the hell was that?” and he shrugged. I said, “Play it again,” and I started singing these words I had in my head over it: “Wine is fine, but whiskey’s quicker, suicide is slow with liquor…” That was Suicide Solution, written right there" - Ozzy Osbourne
