Trying to compare EVH and Randy Rhoads... Get real.

I'm obviously a bigger fan of RR, but there's one thing I still find very strange to this day. I'm talking about the fact that Quiet Riot was his first band and basically went nowhere, and then became super successful after Randy died. Anyone else find this so weird that Quiet Riot blew up after his death?

Randy manned up and joined forces with a legend. QR was too fruity for his talents, he chose right

I didn`t think it was strange. The way I remember it at the time having Randys name attached to it didn`t play into to how popular they briefly got and when Metal Health really took off I don`t remember his name coming up much. Listening to those first two Quiet Riot albums vs Metal Health and Condition Critical it sounds like a completely different band and Carlos Cavazo is one heck of a guitar player
