Yes, historical fact. Quiet Riot's Metal Health did have a big hand in opening doors for metal going mainstream in the early 80's.

Didn't Ozzy get a good amount of airplay with Crazy Train in 1980?

This. It really can't be disputed if you look at the history of metal and the mainstream, charts, marketplace, etc.

Odd, my very first concert had Quiet Riot opening up for Black Sabbath.
Definitely two seperate bands. Wink

Pretty decent first show for a 15 year old kid.
