Flying High Again Guitar Lesson - Ozzy Osbourne - Randy Rhoads

Sign up for my GL365 Academy to finally understand the guitar, develop a great ear for music, pro level technique and much more! Personalized support from me!

In this Flying High Again guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play all of Randy Rhoads' guitar parts for this Ozzy Osbourne song off of the Diary Of A Madman album.

The tuning is Eb tuning. That is, starting from the 6th string, Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb.

Randy Rhoads' brief two album tenure with Ozzy before his tragic death, produced some incredibly cool guitar based music that still lives on a few decades later. One of my personal favorites being Flying High Again.

The riffs are catchy and relatively easy to play. So hopefuly, you will be able to knock those out in no time.

The solo has everything from fast blues based licks, rapid alternate picked licks and rapid repeated legatos licks with it all culminating in the very dramatic sounding tapping sequences that end the solo. I will take you through each phrase of the solo note-for-note. #flyinghighagainguitarlesson #ozzyosbourne #randyrhoads #guitarcovers

Have fun! Carl...

Carl is simply the best. Absolute legend for putting these tutorials out for everyone to learn the greatness of RR.

I'm always so impressed how quickly you seem to be able to turn these lessons around. Good work my man!

[anthonygarcia]

Anything from Ozzy (especially Randy Rhodes) is a treat

[hazor]

Randy really knew how to write the quintessential jam, involving ear caching riffs ( w/ the variations and embellishments) and a very melodic/anthemic progression. Such a brilliant player and composer

[RobertJ]

Yes!!!! Do over the mountain next!!!! Randy is my favorite guitarist!

[TaborTalk]

I think this is my fav from Carl…the solo is INSANE and never thought I’d be able to nail it, but Carl broke it down (especially the tapping section at the end) so clearly and brilliantly so now I can impress my friends and wife with this virtuosic Randy Rhodes classic
. Thank you!!!

[adamhallman]

All I want is Carl to do over the mountain

[RCSmiths]

[carlosmatos]

Nice job on this lesson. It's not overly repetitive and exhausting like some lessons out there, moves at a good pace and you explain everything well.

[robarnold]

It’s always about those remarkable fills! No one better! Thanks for the lesson.

[brianhartsell]

Thanks for putting up some of Randy Rhoads songs. Really enjoyed this video, will apply it. Thanks again, Randy is my favorite player.

[jamiejason]

Hey Carl, can you please help out a little with a randy tone? Seems quiet hard to achieve something even remotely close lol and by the way, if it wasn’t for your awesome guitar lessons I’d barely be able to play guitar. You have been my biggest influence! Very many thank you’s!

[gwillymmartin]

Nice job Carl, thanks for covering the rhythm. Randy was the true king! This one is awesome, and your tone is spot on too.

[DetroitWrecker]

The solo work is fantastic in this song!!! Randy's phrasing was incredible!
