John Sykes auditioning for Ozzy in 1982, but joining Thin Lizzy

This is my video about John Sykes auditioning to play guitar for Ozzy Osbourne in 1982. The audition took place in early 1982, shortly after the tragic death of Randy Rhoads. However, the tryout did not go very well due to chaotic circumstances. Ozzy was heavily intoxicated at the time, and the backing band provided (Magnum) did not know any of Osbourne's songs, resulting in a disorganized and disappointing session. John Sykes went on to join Thin Lizzy in 1982. The video is based on real-life John Sykes interview. Shawn Staples from Hollywood California narrates the story. The photos were created by me using modern AI imagery.
