Re: Rainbow

I love the first three Rainbow albums , Sox. To me they rank right up there with Black Sabbath Pink Floyd Deep Purple and my other all time favorite 70's bands.

They are high on my list as well DKW not a bad track on any of them IMHO.:cheers2

Re: Rainbow

The three Dio era albums are all excellent, Rising is my personal favourite with for me only Do You Close Your Eyes being a weaker track. Stargazer, A Light In The Black and Tarot Woman being my standout tracks.

Down To Earth is one of my favourite albums, Eyes of The World is exceptional as is Love`s No Friend.

Difficult To Cure with Joe Lynn Turner was a pretty good album.

Re: Rainbow

I am starting to like this album, but I still hate Since You Been Gone. The worst cover Rainbow ever did.

Re: Rainbow

I'm assuming by that, that you wouldn't be too big a fan of the AOR of the JLT era?

Urm... no, I'm afraid. I'm a fan of 70's Rainbow, but I can't get into 80's stuff. The only song I like is Stone Cold, but still I play it very rarely.

Re: Rainbow

Stone Cold is the one that made me a Rainbow follower. I actually like every version of Rainbow, Dio being my fav. I really, really dig the Stanger In Us All record.

Come on Blackmore...one more round...a JLT reunion prehaps!?

Re: Rainbow

Graham Bonnet was on That Metal Show a couple weeks ago and I had no idea he was such a funny guy on top of being such a great singer. I really wish he'd done more than one album with Rainbow because "Down To Earth" is my favorite album from the band, even over the great ones they did with Ronnie.
