Rhoads was vaulted to the limelight in 1979 when Ozzy Osbourne chose the relatively unknown guitarist to help shape a new future for him via his band, Blizzard of Oz. The result saw Rhoads co-script two of the most famous albums in hard rock history, Blizzard Of Oz and Diary of A Madman, and rapidly ascended the stairway of fame and recognition for his virtuoso playing and writing. Famed for the way he fused classical flavors with technically-excellent hard rock, Rhoads became one of the most influential lead guitarists in rock. <\/p>\n<p>When he tragically passed away on March 19, 1982 in a plane accident, Rhoads was only 25 years old, but thankfully, the legend of his work, ethos and their continuing influence on a whole new generation of guitarists, has never dimmed. <\/p>\n<p>Celebrate the life and legend of Randy Rhoads with Immortal Randy Rhoads \u2013 The Ultimate Tribute.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on this release, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/udr-music.com\/index.php\/randyrhoads-info\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/udr-music.com\/index.php\/randyrhoads-info<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">Featuring All-Star Guests SERJ TANKIAN, TOM MORELLO and More Out March 3, 2015 via UDR Music The Late Legendary Guitar Hero Memorialized in Sensational Cover Tracks Featuring an All-Star Line-Up of Music Greats: TOM MORELLO <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/2015\/announcing-immortal-randy-rhoads-the-ultimate-tribute-a-celebratory-album\/\" title=\"Announcing &#8220;Immortal RANDY RHOADS &#8211; The Ultimate Tribute&#8221; &#8211; A Celebratory Album\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":47771,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[10563,10565,10567,10564,336,1749,1606,9004,10562,69,5069,10559,10566,1607,10561,292,10560,1257,2588],"class_list":{"0":"post-47770","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news-wires","8":"tag-alexi-laiho","9":"tag-bernie-torme","10":"tag-brad-gillis","11":"tag-bruce-kulick","12":"tag-cd","13":"tag-chuck-billy","14":"tag-doug-aldrich","15":"tag-dweezil-zappa","16":"tag-frankie-banali","17":"tag-george-lynch","18":"tag-gus-g","19":"tag-immortal-randy-rhoads-the-ultimate-tribute","20":"tag-jon-donais","21":"tag-rudy-sarzo","22":"tag-serj-tankian","23":"tag-tim-ripper-owens","24":"tag-tom-morello","25":"tag-tribute","26":"tag-vinny-appice"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47770","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47770"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47770\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/47771"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47770"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47770"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47770"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
