Paul Gilbert

Gilbert is best known for his speed and stylistic versatility on the guitar. When Gilbert was 15 years old in the early 1980s, he was asked to fill in as a guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne, the legendary metal-monster. Ozzy’s manager and producer were adamant at the time that a child should not be allowed to play guitar for a man who had previously led Black Sabbath.
