"Crazy Train" by Ozzy Osbourne

When Ozzy left Black Sabbath in the late '70s, I was disappointed.  Black Sabbath had been one of my favorite bands as I was growing up.  I learned all their songs on guitar, which was the best way for me to learn what power chords could do and the application of the minor pentatonic for heavy metal solos.  In 1981, I heard this song, Crazy Train,  on the radio and couldn't believe my ears.  This was the first I had ever heard of this virtuoso guitarist, Randy Rhoads, and I went straight to the store to buy the album.  Rhoads quickly became my new favorite guitarist because of the way he combined classical guitar with heavy metal.
