Randy [ Rhoads] had small hands. Boy, could he play guitar. He became an even better guitar player after he died.

Sex, death and war. And justice. There's no shortage of lyrics there.

It is a well-known mystery that guitar players suddenly get better once they are dead. Buddy Holly was the first. Stevie Ray Vaughan is known by a lot more people than had ever heard of him when he was alive.

They [The Beatles ] were the first band to write their own songs in Britain because we always just covered American songs before that.

They [The Beatles] were the first band to not have a lead singer in the band.
