Today, exactly 20 years ago this morning, Randy Rhoads died in a plane crash in Florida. he hadn't he even hit his prime yet. it is a huge tragedy and s shame. he could have been the greatest. no matter what you think, you have to respect Rhoads and all he did for the guitar. It's impossible to say anything bad about him. It's a shame he had to die so young.
To improve technique and of course trying to keep all as clean as possible. I know my own limits and speed limits and so on I never play anything I'm not capable of. That wouldn't make any sense. After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like shit, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.
