Dave Sabo and Jon are childhood friends, so him being mentioned makes sense.
I have checked the liner notes of Bon Jovi and 7800 and New Jersey too and there is no mention of any Randy Rhoads (yes, identical spelling btw). So this sure is weird. Maybe some revelation Richie had or something in the studio....wish I knew. I don't suppose Randy Rhoads was ever mentioned in any interviews by the band?
