Description
THIS IS TRULY A UNIQUE COLLECTION ITEM FOR ANY OZZY/RANDY RHOADS FAN. THIS IS ONE OF 7 BLIZZARD SONG ACETATES THAT I OWNED. I DONATED THE CRAZY TRAIN SINGLE TO THE ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME ABOUT 7 YEARS AGO AND I STILL POSSES THE CURRENT TITLE, PLUS MR. CROWLEY AND SUICIDE SOLUTION. THE OTHERS WERE RECENTLY SOLD ON EBAY. THIS SONG WAS SOMETHING RANDY RHOADS RECORDED IN HONOR OF HIS MOTHER, WHO WAS ALSO HIS STRONGEST SUPPORTED AND MUSIC TEACHER WHEN HE WAS YOUNG. IT IS A MOVING CLASSICAL PIECE WHICH TRULY SHOWS THE GENIUS HE WAS.
THIS IS A ONE SIDED ACETATE, THE OTHER SIDE BEING SMOOTH POLISHED METAL. THE ORIGINAL MARKING FROM THE ENGINEER AND MASTERING ARE NOTICEABLE ON THE LABELS, MAKING THESE EVEN MORE REMARKABLE.
ACETATES WERE MADE SO THAT THE BAND COULD HEAR WHAT THE RECORDING WOULD SOUND LIKE ON A TURNTABLE AS OPPOSED TO THE TAPE. COPIES WERE MADE AND GIVEN TO MANAGEMENT, THE BAND AND THE RECORD COMPANY BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER CHANGES NEEDED TO BE MADE TO THE SONG. OFTENTIMES THESE RECORDINGS WERE THE FINAL VERSION OF THE RECORDED SONG.
AND IN CASE YOU ARE WONDERING, I ALSO OWN ONE OF THE 5 OR 6 BLIZZARD OF OZ ALBUM ACETATES, YES THE ALBUM THAT HAS BEEN SOLD 6 MILLION TIMES!!!
BTW, THIS RECORD WAS APPRAISED IN 2011, AND THE WINNING BIDDER WILL RECEIVE A COPY OF THE APPRAISAL. FOR THAT REASON THE ACETATE WILL NOT BE SOLD FOR ANYTHING LESS THAT THE APPRAISAL PRICE FROM 9 YEARS AGO. AS YOU ARE WELL AWARE, THIS HAS NOT DEPRECIATED IN VALUE.
DON'T MISS OUT!!
