Okay you guys. The Wylde man or Mr. Rhoads? Tell me why. It's been bugging me for too long.

Although Wylde is pretty awesome for what he does, he's just not in the same catagory as Rhodes.
Rhodes was the "Jimi Hendrix" of the eighties. He came he conquered, he went.

Both are great, but I think even Zakk Wylde would admit that Randy was on a different plane in comparision to him.
Isn't true that RR got a music lesson in every city he stopped put while touring? Thought I heard that somewhere  |

...to add to the chaos, what's everyone's favorite Ozzy lead? Despite my love for Randy Rhodes, I can't help but choose Wylde's solo on No More Tears.

RR - he had very tasteful lines and more memorable hooks. The solo for "Mr. Crowley" is epic... |

Excellence in artistry doesn't negate one or the other.

Favorite Ozzy lead? Mr. Crowley, just awesome what Randy did.

I hate that stuff! Played too much of it in the 80's.
But I still liked Rhodes better! IMHO, he was just a more fluid, musical player in my book.

I should have just put +1
