In this episode, original Quiet Riot bassist Kelly Garni shares the deeply personal story of his bond with guitar legend Randy Rhoads and the early days that shaped Quiet Riot. Garni opens up about their friendship, the tensions that led to his departure from the band, the devastating shock of Randy’s death, and how he rebuilt his life beyond rock ’n’ roll. It’s an honest, emotional look at brotherhood, loss, and the origins of one of hard rock’s most influential bands.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Angels-Dirty-Faces-Kelly-Garni/dp/1481194151" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Purchase a copy of <i>Angels With Dirty Faces</i></a><br /><br /><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Naked-Vegas-Highs-Photographers-Journey/dp/B0BC6TJ977" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Purchase a copy of <i>Naked Vegas: The Highs &amp; Lows of a Photographer's Journey</i></a><br /><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/krgarni" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Follow Kelly Garni on Facebook</a><br /><br /><i><b><a href="https://oldglory.com/discount/BOOKEDONROCK" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a></b>----------</i><i></i><br /><i></i><br />🎧 <b>Listen Ad-Free on Patreon</b><br />Support Booked On Rock and get every new episode completely commercial-free with the Backstage Pass.<br />Join here: https://www.patreon.com/cw/BookedOnRock<br /><i><b></b></i><br /><i><b>🛒 Old Glory -  Iconic music and sports fan merch<br />💰 Get 15% OFF | Promo Code: BOOKEDONROCK<br /><a href="https://oldglory.com/discount/BOOKEDONROCK" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://oldglory.com/discount/BOOKEDONROCK</a></b></i><br /><i><br />Booked On Rock is part of <a href="https://goboneless.lovable.app/?fbclid=IwY2xjawOMsP5leHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETF2cEY4eFB5TmpSVUluSTVEc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHiXRejfcz_gRmAxaQK4dbTkOj2N59C0pfXMJWeqnykjej-GyrqUfijU-CoaM_aem_YNBvODDs-m0nzGcX5CiKfA&amp;brid=dSbyFOgxjRZ6bBq2zjvCbQ" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Boneless Podcasting Network</a><br /> <br /><a href="https://www.bookedonrock.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BookedOnRock.com</a><br /> <br /><a href="https://bookedonrock-shop.fourthwall.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Booked On Rock Store</a><br /> <br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbqUFiA-IGq97wkB5FEJB4Q" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Booked On Rock YouTube Channel</a><br /> <br /><b>Follow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:</b><br /><a href="https://bsky.app/profile/bookedonrock.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BLUESKY</a><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/bookedonrockpodcast" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">FACEBOOK</a><br /><a href="https://www.instagram.com/bookedonrockpodcast" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">INSTAGRAM</a><br /><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@bookedonrock" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TIKTOK</a><br /><a href="https://twitter.com/bookedonrock" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">X</a><br /> <br /><a href="https://www.indiebound.org/indie-store-finder" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Find Your Nearest Independent Bookstore</a><br /> <br /><b>Contact The Booked On Rock Podcast:</b> [email protected]<br /> <br /><b>The Booked On Rock Music:</b> “Whoosh” by <a href="https://www.crowander.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Crowander</a> / “Last Train North” &amp; “No Mercy” by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCALNf7YM2pEGJvIHf1zxftA" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TrackTribe</a></i>
