    One of my favorite bands and eras of Rainbow. So talented with great musicianship and vocals. The 1977 Munich concert is so epic, such a great performance. "Misteated" from this concert really showcases Ronnie James Dio's voice.

    I grew up on this stuff my friends. Ritchie was my inspiration. I worshiped at the feet of the Man in Black. No, not Johnny Cash. The energy and excitement of not knowing how a show would unfold was very dependent on Blackmore's mood and perception of the investment of the audience. It made every show unique and a special experience. It started with Purple, but is was the roots of neo-classical rock/metal.
    Ritchie is a great guitarist, however he had a unique attitude regarding rock n roll. It is not all about technique and musical skills. It is also very much about the performance which includes an opportunity to express himself musically. This allows the musician to experiment and reach for new and exciting things. It helps to keep it fresh every night and makes for a more spontaneous and interactive experience for the fans. It does not always work perfectly, but that is the beauty and challenge for Ritchie. Like a race car on the edge about to lose control and go down in flames. Or soar to new highs with the exhilaration of a once in a lifetime musical experience.
    Almost 50 years ago this was cutting edge and very unique music. Cheers! 🥂🥂

    You only did half of the live MOTSM. I would be happy to watch Blackmore noodling on stage for a couple of hours and the rest of the band could stay in the dressing room. The entire Munich 1977 concert is epic, and probably the best performances by Blackmore and Dio caught on film. Catch the Rainbow has an epic guitar solo, Still I'm Sad has keyboard and drum solos, but it's nearly half an hour in length. Stargazer was performed live, but it sounded thin without the orchestra so it was dropped from the set.

    Rifftastic music moving the Deep Purple model forward one more step. Rainbow were a super group that was well worthy of the name. The only criticism Chris is that I would always pair ‘Stargazer’ with ‘Light in the black’ as together they tell a complete story and probably represent the best album side of heavy rock music ever written. Still MOTSM is also a great track so I’m hardly disappointed. Loved both Vids that you found and don’t take any Sh1t from these Prima Donna presenter types, they may pull better stank faces than you but we all know who the heart and soul of the channel is!😂

    Loved Rainbow back in the day! Surprised that you hadn't heard "The Man on the Silver Mountain" previously, George. The now "classic rock" radio station in my hometown -- "album rock" back in the 1970's -- played that song a lot, but I suppose the BBC had other artists that they were playing more often back then.

    Lovely to see you chaps again😊 Rainbow were my first ever gig at the strangely named 'Michael Sobel' sport's Centre in around 1983! I've been lucky to see Dio perform many times live up until 2006. It must be said that not many people had time for Blackmore - I've heard Ronnie Dio describe him as 'cold' as people had been waiting for them for hours outside the venue for autographs etc and he just refused to have anything to do with them. Dio on the other hand always stopped and famously took someone on the tourbus who had missed their last train home! Some might say both are geniuses in their fields - personally I agree with re to Dio , but not so much Blackmore - although highly talented, I always thought a bit overrated! Blimey, I'm in a controversial mood tonight - better have a lie down!😅 I think there was a little controversy in around 82 when they went in a more 'radio friendly' direction - I think most metal/prog musicians would see that as selling out. Of course they had that successful hit 'I surrender' - Joe Lyn Turner is an excellent singer but no Ronnie Dio! I think they drafted in Don Airey on keyboards, Bobby Rondinelli on drums and the reliable Roger Glover on Bass. So he's always had great musicians behind him. Anyway, take very good care of yourselves. Hope very much to see some more Nightwish in the future at some point! 😅

    1. Ritchie Blackmore is the Lord God Almighty (and from Weston Super Mare)
    2. Ronnie James Dio sings the best, most passionate outro to a rock track ever.
    3. Ritchie’s solo tells the story that Ronnie sings immediately after it, about the wizard falling (hence the descending slide)
    4. Not live, but Gates of Babylon is an absolute must.
    R.I.P. Ronnie and Cozy.

    Alex, asking for Rainbow tracks to play is tough, because if you want Dio on vocals, he was gone by the year 1979, and most of the singles that were successful for Rainbow happened after 1979 and did not have Dio on them. That being said, the songs "Since You Been Gone," "All Night Long," "I Surrender," and "Jealous Lover" were decent back in the early 1980's.

    Trivia Titbit (hopefully not mentioned and missed in the vid or comments) - There is an earlier Dio/Deep Purple joining. In 1974 Dio did vocals for Glover's much derided Butterfly Ball project tune, Love Is All, which I loved as sprog - still quite fond of it.

If you don't know, a couple time ago they release 5 new songs for the extended version of their album called Rush (are you coming?). These songs are "Honey (are you coming?)", "The Driver", "Valentine", "Off My Face" and "Trastevere", and I think they are wonderful! Please react to these masterpieces.

    So for context, Ian Gillan and Ritchie Blackmore weren’t getting along so he left the Deep Purple with bassist Roger Glover following shortly. The remaining band member decided to continue replacing the Ian Gillan with then unknown singer David Coverdale, (which would after Deep Purple gone on form a band known as Whitesnake) and on bass replacing where bassist and former lead singer of Trapeze, a Mr Glenn Hughes. This showed the band infuse a more soulful, funk and blues sound compared to that they had previously, starting with the album Burn. The funk and soul elements would be expanded upon on the follow up album Stormbringer, which would prompt Blackmore to leave, citing he didn’t want to play this “shoeshine music”
    I’m personally a big fan of the Mark III era of the band (aka the Coverdale/hughes era). I highly recommend you guys check out the live version of Burn and Mistreated from the California Jam 1974

    Classic tracks but have to disagree with being a studio band - sure they laid down some great tracks, but having seen them a few dozen times I can safely say that they are definitely a live band - just like Purple were. No concerts were ever the same and the memories from back then have lived with me since. That concert from Munich is epic - it was ten minutes from being cancelled at midnight as lawyers were trying to get Ritchie out of jail in Vienna after attacking a security guy who was laying into some young female fan - he then turned out to be the owner of the venue! They managed to do so but had to drive him to Munich at top speed whilst the crowd waited! He then dived out of the car, took a few moments to compose himself and then went straight on stage - still in the clothes from the previous concert several days before. If you watch the opening track from the concert, Kill The King, the energy that they played it with in gratitude to the crowd is immense! So, with that info in mind, there's a great track to do - but for me the greatest of all is off of their "On Stage" live album and it's "Catch The Rainbow" - Ronnie in top form again, Cozy holding it all together for a quarter of an hour (make sure it's the 15:32 version) and just unbelievable improvisation from Ritchie right throughout the track. There's an instrumental "re-entry" around 9½ minutes in which is absolutely spine-tingling and not to be missed! No video but worth it to experience this version! Keep 'em coming!

    Oh my, strife between Alex and Chris. I'm sure that's never happened before...
    The guitar solo was a little indulgent in the first track, but I did like him going into a more straight blues style. The intro to Stargazer is now burned into my brain in the best possible way. I may have listened more than once too. The solo in the second song was a lot better, more contained within the song around it.

    The 70s was the high-light in improvisation and "showing off". I don't think there's anything wrong with that atleast not when it's on the level of Deep Purple or Rainbow. In fact, modern rock and metal music lacks this immensly and has become very boring since the early 80s. Long live the 70s and long live the Renassaince!

    Studio band? Are you kidding? They were far better LIVE! Especially Ronnie, the shit he could do with his voice was interferred with in the studio, he was far better live. Watch the entire concert 'Live in Munich 1977'. They had the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra in the studio version of Stargazer so obviously THAT one couldn't be replicated unless they took them with them on the road. They don't make talent like this anymore. Agree, definitely influenced by Zepplin and obviously Purple. Check out Rainbow 'Mistreated' Live in Munich 1977, blows away Coverdales version.
