very much, mister Chang. Wow, And I can't believe I came off

46
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:21.360
of greeting our lovely audience with such
hate. I feel like the penguin and

47
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:26.920
Batman. Well, you kind of
are. Sometimes you're the penguin of the

48
00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:30.199
Back to the Eighties show. So
it's okay. We're used to it.

49
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:34.000
We're used to Dick Hayter making his
presence shown once in a while. I

50
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:39.040
know I appreciate it. So,
but we do want to thank you guys

51
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:42.920
for joining us, taking the time
out of your busy schedule to open your

52
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:46.319
ears to another Back to the Eighties
episode. Today, As I mentioned,

53
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:51.240
is a very very exciting episode as
we talk about the great guitarists of back

54
00:04:51.240 --> 00:04:56.639
in the nineteen eighties. But I
also want to take the time to congratulate.

55
00:04:56.759 --> 00:05:00.920
You know, if you've just had
a great Father's day you had a

56
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.800
sucky one, then you know,
I'm very sorry you did. But there

57
00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:09.079
are very many people out there that
no longer have their dads, and we

58
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:15.040
just want to pay our special respects
and a very very special shout out to

59
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:20.800
all those fathers who have given them
all for their children and that just spent

60
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:27.160
years trying to be an example,
trying to teach and train their kids the

61
00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:30.240
very best that they knew how and
that the very best that they could.

62
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:33.920
So our hats off to those fathers
who put it all on the line,

63
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:41.480
So we cherish the memory of all
those dads hours included. So well,

64
00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:46.680
Now, tuskey, that's heavy duty, because both of us have lost our

65
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:50.120
fathers, and we've joked around on
the show and our other shows so many

66
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:56.040
times on the similarities of your father
and my father, right on their likings,

67
00:05:56.079 --> 00:05:59.800
their lifestyle, and their beliefs.
Correct, correct, old school,

68
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:02.560
you know what I mean. Guys
that had no problem with you know,

69
00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:08.160
getting physical, telling you like it
is. It's dads like ours or anyone

70
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:13.279
else who has a father in that
age bracket, an our age bracket will

71
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:16.480
know that their dad was balls out
to the t to the grit. I

72
00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:21.759
believe the fathers of our generation when
we're young kids is why we are one

73
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:29.040
of the last generations to have a
specific moral code. Although the beauty of

74
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:34.560
that is us as parents have instilled
it in our offspring, and hopefully that

75
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:40.839
catches like a wildfire, so they
will do the same with their offspring and

76
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:44.680
so on. Very good point out. Hats off to everybody out there,

77
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:47.279
happy father's day, good point.
All right, On that note, we're

78
00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:53.079
going to take a small breather.
When we come back, it's time for

79
00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:57.079
the Wizards on Guitar of the nineteen
eighties. Here and back to the eighties

80
00:06:57.160 --> 00:07:00.879
radio. Here's a little ditty we
send out to the fathers, something from

81
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:05.759
gen r sweet Child of Mine,
a song that I hold to my black

82
00:07:05.800 --> 00:07:25.480
heart, reminds me of my kid
in nineteen eighty seven. This is back

83
00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:29.120
to the eighties radio. That was
Guns and Rosa's Sweet Child of Mine.

84
00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:32.000
If you are just joining us,
we are going to be talking today about

85
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:39.720
the wizards that played guitar back in
the nineteen eighties, the virtuosos when I

86
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:43.800
was growing up in the nineteen eighties, And just like many others, you

87
00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:47.639
don't even think about how difficult it
is to play some of those pieces.

88
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:51.759
You don't think about the time,
the effort, the sacrifices, the challenges

89
00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:57.759
that all these musicians went through.
But the nineteen eighties was a time where

90
00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:01.959
shredding was on the rise, of
heavy metal, guitar focused music, and

91
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:07.399
MTV. There were guitar driven bands
and supergroups, and you know what,

92
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:13.920
many of these bands in the eighties
featured guitarists at their forefront, bands like

93
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:20.399
Guns N' Roses with slash, bands
like Van Halen with Eddie van Halen,

94
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:26.839
bands like def Leopard. Additionally,
supergroups like The Traveling will Berry's featuring George

95
00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:33.519
Harrison, Jeff Lynn and Tom Petty
and G Three featuring Joe Satriani, Steve

96
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:37.679
Vai, Eric Johnson. They brought
together some of some of the eighties most

97
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:45.600
accomplished guitarists and pieces. There were
things that all formed a factor in bringing

98
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:50.399
these guitar virtuosos, starting with technology
brother back then, because then the eighties

99
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:56.120
saw significant advancements in guitar technology.
Particularly if you're a musician, you'll know

100
00:08:56.440 --> 00:09:01.480
the introduction of innovative effects on pedals
and ample fires and recording techniques. I

101
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:07.480
mean, these advancements enabled guitarists to
create unique and intricate sounds, and they

102
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:13.279
expanded their creative possibilities and they and
they spread that on the recordings. I

103
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:16.519
mean, it was a time where
we went from vinyl, we went to

104
00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:20.679
eight track, then we tried cassette, and then the emergence of CD.

105
00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:28.120
And now you had the wars between
all these bands where everybody wanted a shred

106
00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:31.639
better than the next person. Brother. I remember back in the early days

107
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:35.440
when metal was coming on hard rock, We're growing up. We had things

108
00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:41.000
in the park or in where city
buildings or even local clubs had a think

109
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:43.360
called Battle of the Bands, and
you can go over there and shred your

110
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:48.559
ship and go, you know,
take a competition with somebody in your area

111
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:52.240
or a band that's in your vicinity, and you guys would just shred.

112
00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:56.360
I remember going to the Red Onion
in the eighties with a lot of my

113
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:01.799
homies. We used to go watch
drum offs, guitars, bass offs.

114
00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:05.679
You know what I'm saying, kN
a c night. I mean, these

115
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:11.840
are things that just like music was
everything back in that era, you could

116
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:20.159
be a badass musician, knowledgeable and
not get famous because there was so many

117
00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:24.159
that it kind of overpopulated the music
business, so many cats and kitties out

118
00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:28.559
there trying to be the next Eddie
van Halen, trying to be the next

119
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:33.559
Iron Maiden. I mean, it
was flooded, you know. Then with

120
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:39.120
the rise of glam it just got
overpopulated. So a lot of a lot

121
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:43.440
of cats they went unnoticed, nobody
knows them, or they had a short

122
00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:48.240
life. In the rock and roll
industry. One of the factors that that

123
00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:52.759
had a lot to do with the
war of guitarists against other guitarists in different

124
00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:58.240
bands was MTV. The nineteen eighties
witnessed a surgeon guitar centric music across all

125
00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:03.039
genres I mean, including rock,
pop, glad metal, and when MTV

126
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:09.320
rose and the rise of music videos
came along the scene, guitarist now had

127
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:16.080
a platform to visually captivate audiences with
their skills. Now you've got a chance

128
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:22.039
as a listener to check out Eddie
van Halen, to check out Phil Collin

129
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:24.840
not call in, and you had
a chance to see who Joe Satriani was,

130
00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:31.200
Eric Johnson, Tom Petty, as
we mentioned as a matter of fact,

131
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:35.559
you had a chance to see who
Randy Rhodes was. In the beginning

132
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:41.440
ingway, Molmstein, I want to
mention real brief that if you want to

133
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:45.600
hear the songs in their entirety,
you have to listen to this same show

134
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:48.440
that you're listening to now, but
you have to listen to it on get

135
00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:54.200
Hits ninety two point five online and
that will air Friday, Saturday and Sunday

136
00:11:54.600 --> 00:12:01.720
from four pm Pacific standard time,
So four pm Pacific Standard time on Friday,

137
00:12:01.799 --> 00:12:05.000
Saturday, and Sunday. You're going
to be able to hear their songs

138
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:11.200
in their entirety. If you're listening
to this show on a podcast platform,

139
00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:13.519
they don't allow us to play the
entire song, so we cut it in

140
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:16.799
the beginning. We cut it at
the end, so you'll have to understand

141
00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:18.639
that. So when you're going,
what the heck, why why was that

142
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:22.639
song cut short? Or why didn't
I get to hear anything but a few

143
00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:26.200
seconds? Well, now you know, Okay, there it is. But

144
00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:31.039
anyway, let's go ahead and kick
it off and chang beasts before beauty.

145
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:35.879
You know what, I know that
we're getting sponsored by Arrogance Men's Fragrance.

146
00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:41.759
I know you're going to agree with
some of the most of the selections I've

147
00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:46.440
picked for tonight's show, and I'm
going to lead it off with a guitar

148
00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:50.080
player. Give you a little background. Came from Texas, did some music

149
00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:54.879
with David Bowie on an album Bonsome
Notoriety. Has a brother that plays same

150
00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:01.039
last name Texas Blues. I'm talking
about a cat name Stevie Ray Vaughan,

151
00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:05.960
a blues man, a rock and
roll guitar player, a phenomenon, a

152
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:16.159
coming of Robert Johnson meets Eric Clapton
meets Jimmy Hendrix meets Jimmy Page meets Texas

153
00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:26.960
meets Soul meets raw, meets power
meets fire. To meet the greatest on

154
00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:31.960
my list Tonight of guitar players in
the eighties flew under the radar for a

155
00:13:31.960 --> 00:13:37.080
while. This man, his music
meant so much to me at so many

156
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:41.320
different levels. I could get into
an emotional story, but there's no time

157
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:43.440
for that. Oh, come on, it's a little time for an emotional

158
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:48.559
story. There's always time for emotional
stories here and back to the eighties.

159
00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:54.320
Stevie ray Vaughan my best friend in
the eighties in high school, Raymie Randy

160
00:13:54.399 --> 00:14:00.679
Barrazza. He passed away in eighty
five from a motorcycle accident. This cat

161
00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:05.120
turned me on as Stevie ray Vaughan, you know, with David Boyea.

162
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:09.759
We used to listen to all kinds
of stuff back in Montabella with all these

163
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:18.600
cats. And he played ray Van's
first album, Couldn't Stand the Weather,

164
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:22.639
and man, I loved it,
and I was like, dude, this

165
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:24.919
is badass. I gotta buy it. I'm gonna we gotta go to music.

166
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:28.399
Plus when I get paid from Sam's
Liquor and I gotta buy it.

167
00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:35.120
Well, anyway, my birthday comes
up and my buddy buys me the cassette,

168
00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:39.000
turns me on to this guy.
Okay, buys me the cassette.

169
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:46.080
He's coming on tour. So we
go down and we buy tickets to go

170
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:48.799
check this guy out. And my
buddy died in eighty five. I was

171
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:54.960
very blessed and fortunate to see Stevie
ray Vaughan live with my best friend twice

172
00:14:56.799 --> 00:15:01.799
before he perished. And I was
able to see Stevie Ray four times before

173
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:09.519
Stevie Ray perished. So Stevie ray
Vaughn is kind of an individual. His

174
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:13.960
music and everything that he kind of
stood for reminded me of a time in

175
00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:20.000
my life that is very geared to
me. The dude was a badass guitar

176
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:24.399
player. This is a guy that
mean. He was influenced heavily by legends

177
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:28.879
like Albert King, Jimi Hendrix,
BB King, and in the seventies and

178
00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:35.240
early eighties, Stevie ray Vaughan honed
his skills playing in just a bunch of

179
00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:39.519
different bands until he formed in eighty
two, he formed the Double Trouble Band.

180
00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:43.919
Just a tragedy that he died at
such a young age of thirty five

181
00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:46.759
as well. I do want to
take a little side take a little side

182
00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:52.120
street here and just want I want
to thank eighties jocks. I want to

183
00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:56.919
thank those DJs that you and I
heard on the radio for playing the music

184
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:02.240
that we got to hear an experiment
with. You know, these stations that

185
00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:07.279
gave the opportunity for all of us
to hear these artists. I mean,

186
00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:10.120
I just my hats off to them. I want to give a big shout

187
00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:11.840
out and thank you, you know, to the greats, to the great

188
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:17.360
broadcasters out there. You know,
one of them being are a good friend

189
00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:21.159
of our shadow Stevens. But we
also had Gino Mitchellini a friend of the

190
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:25.080
show. So you know, as
you bring that up, that's a great,

191
00:16:25.960 --> 00:16:29.039
great respect and a great honor all
those cats out there that we grew

192
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:33.519
up and you know we kind of
were mentors to us, all of us

193
00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:37.200
that were like our friends, our
best friends or a party, but not

194
00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:40.919
in the same room. I mean, they knew how to connect with us,

195
00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:44.279
make us feel good, charge us
up, get us ready for whatever

196
00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:47.840
what was going to happen. It
was weird. Sometimes if you had like

197
00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:52.200
a bad day or something made you
sad, somewhere on that radio, some

198
00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:57.799
DJ was going to play something that's
going to take you through it and in

199
00:16:57.919 --> 00:17:03.639
it. And yeah, we missed
that big time. The eighties. It

200
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:07.160
was like a circus of radio.
I mean, you had so many personalities,

201
00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:12.240
so many different genres of music.
You had so many people speaking out

202
00:17:12.319 --> 00:17:18.319
and being free with speaking out,
something we definitely need nowadays. We used

203
00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:22.880
to have jocks that knew we should
have a special segment called jock Talk.

204
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:26.119
But we had those entertainers that knew
what they were talking about. They knew

205
00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:33.640
music very different than what we have
today anyway, So I have no choice

206
00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:41.119
but to give you a man who
was born originally in Amsterdam, Netherlands,

207
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:52.200
in nineteen fifty five January twenty sixth
This American Dutch young man grew up as

208
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:56.920
one of the greatest guitar players in
rock history, and he was well known

209
00:17:56.960 --> 00:18:03.160
for popularizing He says he never claimed
to invent tapping the guitar technique, but

210
00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:10.640
he was one of the ones known
for popularizing it. And this is a

211
00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:14.720
gentleman who started a band that will
go down in history as one of the

212
00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:19.440
greatest bands in rock history. And
I'm talking about none other than the wizard

213
00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:26.480
on the guitar himself, Eddie van
Halen. Nice, Yes, Nice,

214
00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:30.759
come back and van Eddie van Halen
started playing the drums as opposed to his

215
00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:36.119
brother Alex, who was playing the
guitar. Eddie picked it up and shredded

216
00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:40.680
with it and the rest is history. Incredible pick. Are you ready for

217
00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:44.960
number two? I'm going to say
this cat is from England, a king

218
00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:51.400
in a band of Royalty Queen.
I'm talking about Brian May of Queen played

219
00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:57.000
the guitar with a quarter as a
pick who could sing melancholy blues. Oh.

220
00:18:57.039 --> 00:19:04.799
His wizardry is fun nominal. An
individual that was above all skills in

221
00:19:04.839 --> 00:19:11.960
the seventies took it into the eighties
where Queen kind of touched on the theatrical

222
00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:18.319
pop kind of craze but made it
their own in rock and roll. Brian

223
00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:22.759
May a badass and he's got to
be one of my number two in the

224
00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:30.640
A's a cat that's strayed from the
seventies into the eighties and still kicked ass.

225
00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:37.359
Queen without a doubt has to be
in my book anyway, the greatest

226
00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:42.759
rock band that has ever walked the
Earth. I got another British musician,

227
00:19:44.599 --> 00:19:47.960
but he came to the He came
to the United States when he was five.

228
00:19:48.640 --> 00:19:53.079
Born on July twenty third, nineteen
sixty five in London. Are actually

229
00:19:53.119 --> 00:20:00.319
born in Hampstead in London. I'm
talking about Saul Hudson, otherwise known as

230
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:07.319
the lead guitarist with a nickname of
Slash for Guns n' Roses. I had

231
00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:11.319
no idea he was British American?
Did you know this? Yes? I

232
00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:14.799
did, of course I did.
Oh well, of course he did,

233
00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:19.920
because I know everything but guitarists and
rock and raw. I live and breathe

234
00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:25.960
rockin row, you peasant? How
dare you you know? Peace? Hide?

235
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:30.720
No rockin' row now. Slash was
very well known for his association with

236
00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:37.079
Gibson Les Paul guitars, but he
used a custom built guitar named the Beast

237
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:41.799
during the nineteen eighties, featuring a
single humbucker pickup and a custom body shape.

238
00:20:42.839 --> 00:20:47.680
So chang, let's take a quick
break by playing some songs. What

239
00:20:47.720 --> 00:20:53.640
do you say? Let's started off
with something with Stevie Rave on Oh the

240
00:20:53.880 --> 00:21:00.599
text Blood You were listening to Back
to the Eighties Radio by Toscago and Jay

241
00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:37.319
Back to the Eddie's Radio, you
heard Stevie Ray Vaughan Texas Flood. You

242
00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:41.559
also heard the great Eddie Van Halen
with Eruption, with one of the greatest

243
00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:48.759
guitar pieces of the nineteen eighties.
Chang, Oh my gosh. Well,

244
00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:52.519
now that we're older, we can
think a lot more into the musical aspect

245
00:21:52.759 --> 00:21:57.759
of what it took to create these
masterpieces. Because once again, when you

246
00:21:57.799 --> 00:22:02.799
don't think about the technicality of it
all, you just get high on the

247
00:22:02.920 --> 00:22:07.480
music itself and that's all you know, right, But how hard, how

248
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:15.480
challenging the level of difficulty it is, and it was to create these pieces

249
00:22:15.839 --> 00:22:18.240
that we got back then on the
radio. I mean, the first time

250
00:22:18.319 --> 00:22:23.480
that we heard these songs on the
radio, you freak out. I remember

251
00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:30.559
when I heard Eruption and when I
actually I remember when MTV played Eruption and

252
00:22:30.599 --> 00:22:36.400
we got to see Eddie van Halen
smoking a cigarette as he's playing, putting

253
00:22:36.440 --> 00:22:42.440
the cigarette on his guitar while he
played, and then sitting down, getting

254
00:22:42.440 --> 00:22:47.039
back up, sitting down, then
tapping on it, smiling, jumping.

255
00:22:47.759 --> 00:22:51.759
I mean, the guy had so
much to give and you know, we

256
00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:55.799
just you know, all we could
say is just thank you to those wizards.

257
00:22:55.799 --> 00:22:59.359
And it rest in piece as well. Who's on the Chain's list of

258
00:22:59.759 --> 00:23:03.000
the guitar wizardry of the nineteen eighties. Okay, I threw at you some

259
00:23:03.160 --> 00:23:07.160
Brian May. I'm going to talk
to you about a cat. Oh,

260
00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:15.759
this cat came alive back. Let's
see, he was booed off stage him

261
00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:22.839
and his band at a Rolling Stones
concert. This cat could ball up in

262
00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:32.359
basketball like a badass. This cat
wore high hills. This guy could ride

263
00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:37.000
a horse as a jockey. This
guy was sexy. They called this guy

264
00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:44.880
gay, They called this guy flamboyant. They called this guy everything that he

265
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:52.000
wasn't. He was a legend.
He was a true innovator. I'm talking

266
00:23:52.039 --> 00:23:59.480
about the legendary Prince, rest in
peace. Prince for me was number three.

267
00:24:00.119 --> 00:24:07.440
Why a few artists said he was
under the radar, but deathly classified

268
00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:15.720
as, if not, the greatest
guitar player alive of his generation. That's

269
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:19.599
all I'm saying, mister, Prince. Prince Rogers Nelson, who was born

270
00:24:19.640 --> 00:24:23.839
in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on June
seventh, nineteen fifty eight. He was

271
00:24:23.880 --> 00:24:30.599
the son of jazz singer Mattie Della
and pianist and songwriter John Lewis Nelson.

272
00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:34.640
I mean, all four of his
grandparents all involved in some way getting him

273
00:24:34.839 --> 00:24:42.200
into the music, and jazz was
extremely, extremely influential in his life,

274
00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:47.759
and he proved that. I mean
when he used to do his rehearsals,

275
00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:52.720
he would play on the piano and
he was also an incredible pianist, and

276
00:24:52.839 --> 00:24:56.640
you would go, wow, this
guy's incredible. He didn't go unnoticed.

277
00:24:57.000 --> 00:25:00.440
Real guitarists. The guitarist that really
knew, they said, you know,

278
00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:06.640
Prince, he's not here. He's
not your average kind of guy. All

279
00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:10.039
right, Well, now this pick
is more something that you would pick.

280
00:25:10.680 --> 00:25:14.480
And I'm going to tell you why. Because the gentleman I'm talking about right

281
00:25:14.480 --> 00:25:19.640
now was born December six, nineteen
fifty six, co founder of the original

282
00:25:21.119 --> 00:25:26.279
heavy metal band Quiet Riot, and
the guitarist and co songwriter for Ozzy Osbourne's

283
00:25:26.279 --> 00:25:32.039
first two solo albums, Blizzard of
Oz and Diary of a Madman in nineteen

284
00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:37.400
eighty one. I'm talking about Randall
William Rhodes, otherwise known as Randy Rhodes,

285
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:44.039
who was inducted into the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame unfortunately not in

286
00:25:44.079 --> 00:25:48.079
the eighties but until twenty twenty one. And you know what, let me

287
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:52.759
let me take a little side note
to bash on the Rock and Roll Hall

288
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:57.759
of Fame please, because this is
a disgrace to wait to artists who are

289
00:25:57.880 --> 00:26:04.200
no longer here that brought so much
into the world of music, that brought

290
00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:10.480
us so much, that led the
way that the reason that many artists today

291
00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:15.559
are where they are is because of
these artists from past, and to not

292
00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:23.319
recognize them until they're underground for so
many years is just a travesty and a

293
00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:29.519
tragedy. And it's shame on the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to give

294
00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:37.119
an artist such as Kanye West seventy
something nominations and I don't know how many

295
00:26:37.240 --> 00:26:42.680
Grammys and artists that made so much
great music back then. It's I mean,

296
00:26:42.839 --> 00:26:47.960
they're they're a disgrace. Yeah,
you know what, we'll talk about

297
00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:52.960
the Rock and Roll Hall of Shame
some other day. Back to the eighties

298
00:26:52.039 --> 00:26:57.119
radio, this is the one and
only prints with a song called When Doves

299
00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:15.400
Cry. Nobody has the movie I
want. Hey, if it's on video,

300
00:27:15.480 --> 00:27:18.880
Blockbuster probably hasn't. I mean,
we have over ten thousand videos.

301
00:27:18.880 --> 00:27:22.039
Wow, I'll watch Spass having back

306
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:57.119
a difference. Welcome back to Back
to the Eighties radio hosted by yours movie

Toscano and check. We had some
prints and that followed it up with the

308
00:28:03.960 --> 00:28:11.640
late great rested piece mister soul call
Randy Rhodes with the great Ozzy Osbourne.

309
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:17.640
The guitar work just makes you cry. You don't need any lyrics. It

310
00:28:17.799 --> 00:28:22.279
just screams at you. The sorrow, the pain, and the balls that

311
00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:29.599
Randy Rhodes had boom back to the
eighties were in your face, siscano.

312
00:28:29.839 --> 00:28:33.079
Are you ready to carry on?
All right? So we are talking about

313
00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:38.559
the greatest guitarists of the nineteen eighties. This gentleman by the name of Adrian

314
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:45.440
Vandenberg. Before joining White Snake,
Adrian Vandenberg had a successful solo career in

315
00:28:45.480 --> 00:28:51.680
the Netherlands and released two instrumental albums
showcasing his guitar skills. As a matter

316
00:28:51.680 --> 00:28:57.079
of fact, Vandenberg even designed his
own signature guitar called the Vandenberg Moon King's

317
00:28:57.200 --> 00:29:03.759
Guitar in collaboration with Dean Guitars,
and the guitar features a unique shape and

318
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:08.000
a highly versatile pickup configuration, allowing
for a wide range of tones. So

319
00:29:08.599 --> 00:29:11.960
check out if you can, because
we're gonna be playing a song by White

320
00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:18.200
Snake in a little while. Adrian
Vandenberg, My next pick is not just

321
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:30.039
one phenomenal guitar player, talking about
two phenomenal guitar players in one band that

322
00:29:30.200 --> 00:29:37.279
ripped and roared in the nineteen eighties
and previously in the mid to the later

323
00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:45.440
seventies, where their style of fashion
changed, their music somewhat changed to a

324
00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:52.880
faster pace. I'm talking about the
legendary band, my favorite band of all

325
00:29:52.960 --> 00:29:59.880
my metal existence as a young youth, Judas freaking Priest, And I'll talk

326
00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:10.640
about KK Downing and mister Glenn Tipton, phenomenal acoustically rip for riff trade offs,

327
00:30:11.559 --> 00:30:18.160
two of the greatest legendary metal rock
and roll guitar players of all time.

328
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:25.400
What is your problem with the great
metal gods Judas Priest. Are you

329
00:30:25.480 --> 00:30:30.799
afraid you think Rob Alford is going
to drive to your television on his Harley

330
00:30:30.839 --> 00:30:36.160
and violate you? Or was it
the leather and the studs that made you

331
00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:42.519
be afraid of Father Francis back when
you were a young Catholic schoolboy and the

332
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:47.519
torture chambers. Well I'm to alter. Yeah. You know, back in

333
00:30:47.559 --> 00:30:51.759
the eighties, I just wasn't familiar
with Judas Priest's music. I only saw

334
00:30:53.440 --> 00:30:57.240
the shirts that that the metal kids
had on campus, and that's about it.

335
00:30:59.079 --> 00:31:03.279
I think what I heard was whatever
was on radio. Like if it

336
00:31:03.319 --> 00:31:07.480
was on KLOS or on K and
a C, then I heard it.

337
00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:11.319
But if you asked me back then, I wouldn't have known what it was.

338
00:31:11.400 --> 00:31:14.440
But but I can tell you because
it was on the radio, and

339
00:31:14.519 --> 00:31:18.319
because they played the heck out of
songs, most likely I probably enjoyed it.

340
00:31:18.480 --> 00:31:22.160
Well, you know what, I'll
give you the get go because you

341
00:31:22.200 --> 00:31:26.720
are much younger than me. You
would have been petrified going to one of

342
00:31:26.759 --> 00:31:30.559
the concerts that I went to during
the eighties in my high school years because

343
00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:34.640
you weren't in high school yet.
You were in I think elementary. No,

344
00:31:34.759 --> 00:31:38.839
not all elementary. You were what
junior I was in the junior high

345
00:31:38.920 --> 00:31:42.519
maybe junior high. Maybe you know, you were getting pubic hair, your

346
00:31:42.599 --> 00:31:51.640
voice was changing, star athlete and
getting the first base was like, yeah,

347
00:31:51.759 --> 00:31:55.359
if I if I could touch her
and then smell my hand, Oh,

348
00:31:55.759 --> 00:31:59.599
I'll be up all night. I
remember that I got up to third

349
00:31:59.640 --> 00:32:01.599
base. When I got up to
third base when I was in junior high.

350
00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:06.039
By the way, really, so
you hung around a bunch of sluts,

351
00:32:06.519 --> 00:32:10.720
I like that. It was I
just I just had the right girlfriends,

352
00:32:12.200 --> 00:32:15.599
you know what hear it? Back
to the eighties radio hosted like Tisconwin

353
00:32:15.720 --> 00:32:22.440
Chang. We do not want to
hurt anyone's feelings or violate anyone the past

354
00:32:22.519 --> 00:32:28.599
by calling them sluts. Please,
No sluts could be men or women.

355
00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:34.559
Obviously, my good friend here stop
playing with toys to be a young male

356
00:32:34.720 --> 00:32:38.599
slut, and he found other sluts
to play with those. The content of

357
00:32:38.720 --> 00:32:43.880
sluts is both male and those both
ways to men and women. Okay,

358
00:32:44.160 --> 00:32:47.519
thank you for that, just on
your slutty story. Okay, so no,

359
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:51.839
I was just saying that. No, You're absolutely right. I think

360
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:57.400
there was one band that I was
afraid of I can tell you, not

361
00:32:57.519 --> 00:33:00.839
because I not because I knew,
Yes, it was Slayer, not because

362
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:02.680
I knew them. I didn't know
their music, knew it, but just

363
00:33:02.720 --> 00:33:06.920
what I saw in shirts. I
think Slayer and I'll tell you which other

364
00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:09.960
shirt kind of scared me. But
the band has you know, it's not

365
00:33:10.000 --> 00:33:15.519
as hard as Slayer. It would
be Iron Maiden just because of their art

366
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:20.000
cover, you know, the art
cover, and maybe Deal. But here's

367
00:33:20.039 --> 00:33:23.720
the kicker. I love Deal.
I love listening to Deal, Iron Maiden

368
00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:29.599
and Adrian Smith and Dave Murray,
two phenomenal, great guitar players in their

369
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:34.160
own right, trading off just like
Judas Priests, a great band. It's

370
00:33:34.319 --> 00:33:39.079
it scares me that you're scared of
two bands that I think are iconic A

371
00:33:39.119 --> 00:33:43.519
lot of people mine. No,
I am not. I never said I

372
00:33:43.559 --> 00:33:45.920
was scared of them. I cleared
it up. I said I was scared

373
00:33:45.960 --> 00:33:51.039
back when I was a team from
looking at the album covers because I was

374
00:33:51.039 --> 00:33:54.119
going to wait a second, this
sounds like something I'm gonna go to hell

375
00:33:54.160 --> 00:33:59.799
Hell, and they're gonna be a
you know, with their pitchforks chasing my

376
00:34:00.039 --> 00:34:02.000
little skinny button. Let me ask
you something, bro, do you remember

377
00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:08.239
when they came up with backward and
masking? After oh yeah, on trial

378
00:34:08.360 --> 00:34:13.519
for a murder? Do you remember
that. I remember my mom went to

379
00:34:13.559 --> 00:34:20.519
go see our old priest, Father
Charles of Saint Benedict's, you know,

380
00:34:20.599 --> 00:34:23.320
the supreme Priest BacT Then you know
who was cool with me because I went

381
00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:27.400
to school there. And she went
and told him that my hair grew out.

382
00:34:27.400 --> 00:34:30.480
I was on drugs and I was
listening to this dark music. So

383
00:34:30.559 --> 00:34:36.440
he kicked my mom. These tapes
and these writings about backwards, I remember,

384
00:34:36.920 --> 00:34:38.800
so my mom put a light of
them down on me one night.

385
00:34:39.719 --> 00:34:45.360
Now, the bad thing for her
was I was on acid and I was

386
00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:49.960
pumped up because I scored myself some
deal tickets. So I was pumped up,

387
00:34:50.320 --> 00:34:53.880
and I'll never forget man. She
got so upset because it didn't work,

388
00:34:55.239 --> 00:34:59.599
and she called the priest that night. She was on the phone with

389
00:34:59.679 --> 00:35:02.480
him, and I was frying on
acid in my room in the acoustical ceiling.

390
00:35:02.480 --> 00:35:07.800
He looked like cottage cheese, breathing
so nice. So I'm tripping for

391
00:35:07.840 --> 00:35:10.960
a while, I swear to you. A knock comes upon the door.

392
00:35:10.960 --> 00:35:15.400
About an hour later, Father Charles
comes in twice to talk to me.

393
00:35:15.679 --> 00:35:19.440
You know what I mean? Bro, Oh the Exorcist. Did he bring

394
00:35:19.480 --> 00:35:23.559
holy water? Yeah, he brought
some holy water and I chased you know,

395
00:35:23.599 --> 00:35:28.079
I was chasing down some of the
jim Beam that I was drinking in

396
00:35:28.119 --> 00:35:31.519
my room. Anyway, we had
a pretty good conversation, he laughed.

397
00:35:31.519 --> 00:35:37.119
Bro, didn't bother, didn't try
to save my soul. But I tell

398
00:35:37.159 --> 00:35:38.960
you I had to respect for that
religion and that guy right then and there.

399
00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:43.119
You know why, because he looked
into the Valley of the Beast and

400
00:35:43.159 --> 00:35:45.800
he saw that he was not going
to win or be victorious. Then I

401
00:35:45.880 --> 00:35:49.320
was still going to rock and roll. Nice at the end, did he

402
00:35:49.440 --> 00:35:53.159
leave with his own autographed shirt of
Judas Priest? Oh? No, As

403
00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:59.239
a matter of fact, he did
leave with the scent of marijuana and incense.

404
00:35:59.599 --> 00:36:01.360
Oh okay, he was one of
those fathers. I got it.

405
00:36:02.519 --> 00:36:06.639
No, I continued to do the
deed while he was sitting in there.

406
00:36:07.840 --> 00:36:14.000
I'm glad he didn't slap you.
All right, So on that note,

407
00:36:14.280 --> 00:36:19.639
uh, you know, let's laid
down. You have to tell me your

408
00:36:19.719 --> 00:36:23.199
pick. Oh, that's right,
okay. So my pick would be a

409
00:36:23.320 --> 00:36:30.960
gentleman known for his intricate guitar solos
and improvisational skills. He had unconventional techniques

410
00:36:30.159 --> 00:36:37.199
such as a technique called legato,
wammy bar tricks, and wide intervals stretches

411
00:36:37.320 --> 00:36:44.320
into his plane. He also had
a He had an amplifier which he nicknamed

412
00:36:44.360 --> 00:36:47.960
the Beast, and it was a
Marshall amplifier. I know you're gonna know

413
00:36:47.960 --> 00:36:52.679
this. This guitarist, his name
is George Lynch. Dude, George Lynch

414
00:36:52.800 --> 00:36:58.480
is a master of the acts.
He was better than his band Dawkin.

415
00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:01.000
I never cared for Doc, but
I thought George Lynch, if he ever

416
00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:06.760
took off on his own, he
would kick ass. Incredible, incredible player.

417
00:37:06.960 --> 00:37:08.000
Now you want to hear a trippy
story. I always want to hear

418
00:37:08.000 --> 00:37:13.199
a trippy story, George Lynch.
Bro. I remember one time, man,

419
00:37:13.280 --> 00:37:19.119
me and my buddies were rolling to
Hollywood and there was a liquor store

420
00:37:19.119 --> 00:37:23.199
on Sunset, up the street from
the Rainbow. And I went into the

421
00:37:23.239 --> 00:37:28.880
liquor store, me and my buddy
to get some gum, and George Lynch

422
00:37:29.039 --> 00:37:34.320
was in line, bro getting a
bottle of wine, some Dixie cups,

423
00:37:34.800 --> 00:37:42.280
some gum, and some cashew,
some type of nuts. And this was

424
00:37:42.440 --> 00:37:46.119
like way later after he left Don
Donkey. Oh, I'm sorry, Don

425
00:37:46.239 --> 00:37:55.199
Dawkin, But dude, he was
buffed out and ripped to shreds. This

426
00:37:55.360 --> 00:38:01.679
dude's arms were easily as big as
my cast. And I looked at him.

427
00:38:01.719 --> 00:38:05.079
I go, George Lynch, I
go, dude, you shred,

428
00:38:05.159 --> 00:38:08.360
bro, you shred. I go
you out. He's better than Don Donkey.

429
00:38:08.519 --> 00:38:14.880
He laughed, patted me on the
shoulder, and he literally made my

430
00:38:14.960 --> 00:38:19.280
shoulder fill the impact. Wow.
You know, here's a little a true

431
00:38:19.320 --> 00:38:27.239
story. It's a little trivia.
But George Lynch auditioned twice for Ozzy Osbourne's

432
00:38:27.360 --> 00:38:30.960
lead guitarist role, once in nineteen
seventy nine, losing two of course Randy

433
00:38:31.119 --> 00:38:37.280
Rhodes, and he auditioned again in
nineteen eighty two to replace Brad Gillis,

434
00:38:38.360 --> 00:38:44.920
and he was He was hired for
three days before Ozzie changed his mind and

435
00:38:44.960 --> 00:38:47.360
decided to go with Jake E.
Lee. Yeah. You know what,

436
00:38:47.440 --> 00:38:52.920
man, I kind of prefer the
way that Ozzie went about getting his axe

437
00:38:52.960 --> 00:38:55.280
players. He went with the younger
individuals, two of them you know from

438
00:38:55.360 --> 00:39:00.639
Los Angeles, you know, from
southern California. I I like that.

439
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:05.159
I thought that George Lynch was a
leader on his own. He would clash

440
00:39:05.320 --> 00:39:10.119
too much with Ozzie in the way
that Brad Gillis was doing with Ozzie.

441
00:39:10.159 --> 00:39:14.920
Brad Gillis had his own notoriety,
his own fame, his own style,

442
00:39:15.480 --> 00:39:20.880
you know, to jam with Ozzie
and to kind of niche both those personalities

443
00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:25.119
and styles. When your eagles flying
doesn't always work. Ozzie always worked better

444
00:39:25.159 --> 00:39:31.239
with the younger youth that was inspirational, badass on fire, but able to

445
00:39:31.280 --> 00:39:38.639
accept his experience and his wisdom and
their loving and hail of him to coincide

446
00:39:38.639 --> 00:39:43.920
and work and become better guitar players. That's why I think George Lynch was

447
00:39:44.000 --> 00:39:47.280
better off not jamming with Ozzie.
Well on that. Now, ladies and

448
00:39:47.360 --> 00:39:52.119
gentlemen, we're going to take a
quick musical fiesta break you were listening to

449
00:39:52.159 --> 00:39:55.599
Back to the eighties radio with Tuscano
and Chang. We're taking you out with

450
00:39:55.679 --> 00:40:00.280
the threesome Hum Hum hum set of
music. We're taking you out with something

451
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:07.400
from Queen Yours truly, Judas Priest, taking you out with something with White

452
00:40:07.400 --> 00:40:28.880
Snake, Mister Vandenberg, don't you
go nowhere? Back to the eighties Radio.

453
00:40:29.039 --> 00:40:35.320
You heard Queen with sheer heart attack, followed by Judas Priest screaming for

454
00:40:35.519 --> 00:40:38.960
vengeance, and then we calmed it
down with the very poppy White Snake from

455
00:40:39.039 --> 00:40:45.360
nineteen eighty seven's album Here I Go
Again, the guitar solo by the great

456
00:40:45.519 --> 00:40:49.440
mister Vandenberg. Thank you for joining
us here Back to the Eighties Radio,

K Hit the ninety two point five,
