2024 now
Every day.
Feb 25th 2024 8:42 pm. I,m listening 😊😊
02.24 . Я слушаю!!!! И со мной миллионы!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Watching during the last month of 2023… & I’m 62!! Anyone else an older fan..???🇺🇸
When I look at the world we live in today - musical and especially our society and how we treat eachother - I feel VERY old. I strongly believe I live in the wrong decade, at least, if not century... When I look just at myself, I don't feel that old - and I am really not, just 46. But I feel so out of time in many ways...
65
55 an 80s metal head . So glad UA-cam is here to give us all we missed before🤘🤘🤘
50 and listening rock since I was born in 73 thanks my fathers and neibors
57 from Iran,it was unique time.my generation at the 80's,we listened to the hard rock & havey metal under the fear of revolutionary guards.But it was geart ,as now.🙏
Who's in awe 🙌2023
Greetings from Helsinki Finland
Greetings from Brazil!!!
This is not a song,is an OPERA.MASTERPIECE
. Because heavy metal was not invented, Ronnie loved to listen to opera as a child and was a fan of Mario Lanza. “I couldn’t believe his incredible voice,” he told USA Today. “I wanted to use that aspect of vocalisation in the rock’n’roll context. I guess that’s the connection people see between my operatic style and music as heavy as possible.
A quote from Kerrang .com, 18 things you didnt know about RJD
Ronnie grew up as an Italian singing Opera in his home. He said that is where he learned to sing, diaphragm,breathing. It set his course. If not for that and his practice on New York City's roads yelling F-You A Hole! Italians! Him and Vinnie, both heh. Love them .I'm going to hear Vinnie, Vivian Campbell, Andrew Freeman, Phil Sousan in Columbus Ohio, Aug 21,2021. Yeah!
No, this is just a tribute
jawol
This proves how authentic Dio's voice is. It's even better live. You can hear the power and emotion he puts into every word. Man you gotta respect this man. R.I.P. RJD
Ronnie...A God Among Men. That Voice!!
He is a rock god
Dio what a voice
Also RIP Jimmy Bain
He was incredible, live, although this is not live. It seems like a recording that was made just before the official release.
Seems that he cleaned up the vocals, and took that reverb off, before releasing it. Amazing song. lyrics are kinda funny. A Magic Carpet ride, a genie, maybe more, LOL. Ritchie's solo is masterful.
When people think of Rainbow, they think of since you've been gone. But this is Rainbow at their peak. RJD has an incredible voice that blends so well with all the other instruments
When I think of Rainbow, I think about their first 3 albums. Rainbow was the best with Dio
@@nektardyAgreed.
Who thinks that? 😂
@@davidcarlamere7167 Hello David, clearly you don't. 😎
They think of the Turner era...Foreigner rip off!
This is much better!
Ritchie is great musician, Ronnie is great vocalist. This is not only hard rock, this is progressive hard rock, art hard rock and world music in that time. Amazing, it was 1970's
it's very very progressive
prog indeed
Long Live POWER METAL...
I am not sure you can call it Progressive Rock... But it is amazing. If Dio is there, is good. And this one is amazing.
@@m3bmuadib Harder than prog rock, more progressive than hard rock
everyone talks about Ritchie's guitar and solo, Dio' vocals, which are both incredible, but David Stone's keyboards are exceptional. The intro is just epic, and he keeps it going throughout the whole song. Amazing
Totally agree, I've commented elsewhere that he's underrated on keyboards!
If you watch closely ritchie can't even play his own lead...he's clearly miming the leads for this video..dio is live though
@@michaelmaravigli3871 As a guitarist myself i did think he looked like he wasn't playing anything even remotely resembling the solo! I wondered if the video was out of sync at first, but even them.....
Ritchie has always have great keyboard players. I guess after Jon Lord you can't really accept less.
they are all great thats what made the a super band
Best voice in metal rest in peace Dio 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🖕🏻🤘🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
+ozzman123 agreed....all the bickering about the rrhof...lol....us old schoolers know that dio is the greatest metal singer and we dont need some punkass halloffame accreditation.....rest in peace ronnie....thanks for the ride bro
+ozzman123
+ Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford, Biff Byford, Sebastian Bach, Phil Anselmo, Geoff Tate, Tony Martin, James Hetfield, Mike Patton, let alone some rock legends like Freddie Mercury, Robert Plant, Ian Gillan, David Coverdale, Roger Waters, Greg Lake, David Gilmour, Eddie Vedder, Axl Rose, Layne Staley, etc
+Johnny Handegg That's true, those are all amazing vocalists and Halford is my personal favorite.
But Dio will always be the one and only "Voice of Heavy Metal"
Dio still the greatest
👍👍👍👍
How the heck are they not in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame and yet they just announced Green Day are in. WTF is that all about?????
kjemradio Kind of devalues RnR Hall of Fame as well as destroys it's credibility huh?
Glen Gladden That was done long before Green Day. Madonna, LL Cool J, and Run DMC all got in. They are not now nor have they ever been rock. This organization is run by dipshit execs who HATE metal and rock and always have. It's all a popularity contest to them.
Rock and Metal have been the bastard sons they don't want. Look at how long it took to get RJD in, or Rush, or even KISS? Fking stupid!
#RockNRollHallofShame!
I agree.
kjemradio better that way, real glory outshines absurd conventions
It's better that they are not in that stupid list. We know Dio and his work/talent. Let the idiots masturbate their egos.
The BEST formation of Rainbow.
I think previous
Miss you Uncle Ron, I know you are rocking those pearly gates. Love you forever 💓 💛 💗 ❤️ 💕
Must have been cool to have him as an uncle
@@Brandovibe yes very lucky, he was the greatest in every way. He is so missed, but I know he is keeping his eye on us all.
Blackmore and Dio. Often imitated. Never duplicated.
Well said!
Blackmore is underated
@@ralphchunksoup4234 Underrated?? When were you born? He’s been a recognised force in rock music since even Hendrix was on the scene! In the 70’s most guitar shops were filled with aspiring Blackmore clones every Saturday! Everybody with any talent wanted to be Blackmore.
Cannot be duplicated. Ever
This was when Ritchie really cared. Um isn't that Cozy Powell on drum kit?. This mark of Rainbow is unreal
Blackmore-Dio-Powell..
What a band..
Nothing come close..
Lee, Peart & Lifeson mightbe (and they're all still in the land of the living)
Lord Paice Glover Gillan Blackmore...is closer DP forever
don't forget the guy who uploaded the video
Yup Bob is really good too
TONY CAREY TOO
14.04. 1945 born R. Blackmore! Happy birthday Maestro!
I have discovered Rainbow and Dio only recently, but OMG, I am obsessed, they give me the chills every time, no matter how often I listen to them.
Enjoy the journey x. Saw DIO on the sacred heart tour, and at donnington. Always better than on record - a wren, like Bjork and Celine Dion.
Dont forget the Heaven & Hell band
Me too
lucky you. I remember the thrills of discovering for myself these amazing bands. And here I am 40 years later going through a rediscovery of this incredible workings... Enjoy your journey. Its nowhere near done.
Same!! 🔥🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻
Ronnie James Dio is easily one of the best vocalists/songwriters in metal history!
i guess u mistakenly added * one of * before vocalist :D :D
Music history you should have said
Полностью согласен
In music history*
I can only think of one which I believe is the King of metal, Rob Halford, but besides of him, Ronnie James Dio is the Master!
This version of Rainbow is one of the best bands ever.
They're legend..who's watching this year..2020...👀
Me!
Me too!
Wow, been scouring rainbow/purple videos for an identifiable keyboard sound for a band recording I'm doing...now I'm hooked on this tune!
Cozy be the drum Wizard!
They'll be watched tll the end of time.
wHo'S wAtcHinG iN 20²0
2021 and still here listening to those legends 🌈🔥
Roger that.
They just did their thing and it happened to be probably the best of all time....
Even here 2022!
Here 2022
This will never get old to me. Great era of music ❤
Ritchie's solo is incredible!
one of the best solos ever
blackmore is always the best ...heart n soul of deep purple n rainbow
Would've been nice to hear what Malmsteen would have done over it.
Huge brainfart he already did but i think there isnt a proffesional footage
Huge brainfart and tbh it doesnt worth it to listen at all. The solo isnt even a gates of babylon solo anymore. İt is completely different. İt has no soul. Because he just shreds the shit out of the solo all the time. Maybe it could be a solo of its own for a complete different song. But for gates of babylon it was a shitty solo and completely kills the song with its lack of soul.
His voice... Always gave me chills. It's beautiful.
Just WOW.....
Exactly Veronica! He had an extraordinary energy in its voice.
The best metal voice in the world
Ronnie James Dio the best!!!
I'm 64 going on 65 , still jammin to...
Gorgeous Dio, Ritchie and Cozy...
I love the way that Blackmore doesn't even pretend to be playing the same guitar solo notes as those that we're listening to.
Yeah, right? Haha
Yeah....weird
@DamageIncM The instruments are played on playback but the vocals are live...
Jeff Jeffery blackmore does what he pleases
DamageIncM Dio is the only one actually performing. Everyone else is playback.
Being a late teen in the 80's I was a DIO fan and I knew about his work with Black Sabbath (dare I say I preferred Dio to Ozzy). I was also aware of some classic Blackmore Deep Purple. I came to know Rainbow many years later. OMG the first couple albums were SO ahead of their time. Classic Rainbow would have sounded fresh even on a Dio album many years later.......Just Awesome
RJ Dio a true genius. One in a billion. A great star forever to shine on us
Blackmore and Dio - a partnership that only comes once in a lifetime.
There was another: Dio & Iommi.
My God there’s nothing else like this. I feel like I’m standing at the edge of a cliff, overlooking the ocean at night, the wind whipping my face.
you should write songs Lisa :)
Thats because Dio means God în Italian
It's ok. Just go with it. One of the most haunting bad ass rock and roll songs ever done.
@@nicoletastoica112 nice
Cozy.
Dio’s voice. So easily recognisable. Like Bruce Dickinson. One of the best. RIP Dio.
2024 And This Classic is A Timeless Gem.
IMMORTALI !!! CHE GRUPPO RAGAZZI !!! CHE SOUND !!!CHE MAGIA !!! THE BESTEST !!!
We miss you Ronnie James Dio we all miss you rest in peace Dio 😢 You were an awesome human being
Blackmore, Dio , Daisley, Powell, Stone taking it to another level, BRAVO! The legends live on >>>>>>>>>>>>
David Stone is an underrated, but great keyboardist.
true
What happened to him after he left Rainbow??
He recorded with Canadian band Max Webster in the early 1980's. Since then, he's kept a low profile.
He is amazingly talented!! I have the great pleasure of sharing the stage with him here in Vancouver with The Longriders Band (the Ultimate Tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd). David rocks and Rainbow is kick a**!!!!
Terrific intro !
Another epic Blackmore solo👀
Love Rainbow! Dio and Blackmore are legends💯still in 2021⭐
...да , это что - то....
This album literally blew me away back in the 70,s, and I can safely say it was a life changing moment as soon as the needle hit the Vinyl, to this day, Rock music has been part of my life, and Rainbow have been my all time favourite band ever since, these tracks still send a shiver down my spine after 36 years.
They still send a shiver down mine too. Brilliant, just blew me away.
I saw this clip on Don Kirshner. I've been a Blackmore fanatic ever since. . .
Then after this... Down to Earth. Ugh.
Me too Brother!!!!...One of the best all time bands and album of all time!!!!!
Was I the only one that thought he was gonna say when the needle hit my arm ?
How come his voice is sharper and clearer in this live performance than the recording? He is the legend. Imagine if they do it again with today equipments.
its not live... its a recording
He's singing live against a backing track of the song.
Yeah his voice is definitely live and of course fiddled with post recording which is standard. You can tell the band aren’t playing by how shockingly bad Blackmore’s miming is 😂
Most video’s on television are the rhythm track while the singer lip sinc’s over the recording
They dont need todays equipment they were just simply realy good musicians
Ронни, ты с нами навсегда!
Вечная память всем ушедшим гениям рока!
Best Rainbow song , one of the best of all Dio s carrer.....Top ten of best 70's songs
Blackmore at his peak of creativity on guitar !!
There will never be another like Dio. How many singers can claim a career of 50 years, 4 classic bands not to mention countless guest appearances and projects?
Journey Into Beard - I agree that Dio was uniquely incredible, but we all know that Heaven & Hell is really Black Sabbath MK 2, so it’s honestly three classic bands. (I love Elf, but they can’t rightly be considered a classic band, as they’re too unknown).
3
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love the way Blackmores solo goes into another dimension
One of the greatest metal songs- ever.
Absolutely, together with Stargazer that is.
100% agree , one of the greatest songs of all time!
That guitar solo... he was in a pure trance. Love it!
Un genio..Ritchie!!
Thanks to Ritchie the world was introduced to Ronnie James Dio...he unleashed a monster...R.I.P.
You can say that again, absolutely right, 100 %!
I was listening to ELF before Rainbow. Dio has always been spectacular, no matter what band he's been in.
@@brentfoster1607 ya but no doubt Rainbow was what made RJD known
Ronnie James Dio's vocals and lyrics are brilliant and this song is one of Blackmore's best solos ever
La meilleure formation de rainbow avec les trois galactiques : Ritchie Blackmore, cozy powell et le magistrale Ronnie James dio.
for us rock fans, this is a proof that you do not need to shred to become a legend. This song does rock from intro to end, all superb musicians playing like a clock, no one pushing to sound louder than the others.
What a voice....RIP RONNIE
Can't get enough of this song it's amazing
Это магия! На все времена! Спасибо Вам за шедевры!
I like how at the start Richie's like "fuck, I hate faking guitar solos on playback" but then a while later he's all YEEEAH LOOK AT ME, THE ALMIGHTY GUITAR GOD. Strange man, but damn does he know how to write a riff.
Happy Birthday to the Man on the Silver Mountain. You found your Rainbow in the Dark at the Gates of Babylon. RIP my friend, your music will live on forever!
Ha ha
One of the best Blackmore and indeed guitar solos ever recorded. Stops you dead in your tracks!
Ребята!!! Вы СУПЕР!!! Я завислала от вас в конце 80-ых!!!! Неизменно люблю. Привет из Москвы!
Послушайте это, начало восьмидесятых. Вы офигеете...
ua-cam.com/video/jeqklZ8MUuw/v-deo.html
RAINBOW FOREVER!!!!!!!!
Powerful voice, the voice of Heavy Metal, incomparable! Great band!
This song and kinds of it were created in Heavens. Ritchie's solo is unsurpassed masterpiece
I ask the same question!
What these guys have done with music, everyone in the world should be proud of!
PEACE and WOW!!
🍀💖🌈 ☮️
The ultimate masterpiece.
Fantastic cooperation between Ritchie and Ronnie
Rainbow was the first ever Power Metal band. I loved them when Blackmore left Deep Purple and formed this amazing combo. Fantastic!!
Невозможно оторвать взгляд от экрана- потрясающее выступление, композиция, ну а смотреть как играет Ричи , это отдельные эмоции, передать которые не хватит слов!
Мне одному кажется, что он пропевает одно, а играет совсем другое? Гениальный человек!
Татьяна ,обожаю вас, девушки,что любит рок ,это бриллианты Рок музыки,с уважением Хамид.
@@user-pk7yv8qp2s Хамид, Брат Уважуха, жду в гости, хотя у нас Шумно🙏☠️
Это Ranbow, Это Blackmoor
This has to be top 3 of the greatest vocal performances ever in hard rock or metal , and a very very nice song to .
This song has such a tasty groove.
Tasty as fuck
The intensity of Dio is staggering, backed by musicians of the highest calibre....If Beethoven had been born in 1950 he would have wanted to be a member of Rainbow.
he'd start his solo career and rule the metal and rock world with his concertos involving the voicings of electric guitar, drumkit, synthesizer and vocals
Просто получаю наслаждение! Слушая голос Р. Д.Дио! И Ричи Блэкмор! Красота!!!!
У меня тоже самое братан
ЭТО ВАМ НЕ ДИМА БИЛАН !!!
это ж ,надо было ко сну (чертей вспоминуть ?)@@nikolaifrantsev1960
Today is Tuesday March 12, 2024 and this is beyond heavy metal, this is mind-blowing.
The majority of Rainbow fans love Stargazer but I actually prefer this song over it.
Me too.
ты не прав.... дио все прекрасно....
Me too.
The majority absolutely adore both in my opinion.
This is the worlds second best song.... Number one is stargazer :-) Numer three is light in the black ...
Absolute masterpiece of music.....each member at his top....pure genius
Richie Blackmore is as one with his guitar. Like two lovers an hour and a half after forplay! Such a great musician.
3:42 This solo is still simply magnificent.
Every sound is set just right on its own place.There is no fake note.Evrething is splendid from the the very beginning, keyboard intro makes me feel the smell of that time,as if i were there.Vocal and instruments are outstanding.It goes without saying Blacmore's guitar
That solo is ridiculous. Effortless phrasing over those chord changes. Blackmore was on another level.
"The devil is me and
I'm holding the key
to the gates of sweet hell Babylon."
I was very privileged to see Rainbow's tour of the US when this album emerged on the world stage. They came to Memphis and performed at the North Auditorium in the late 70s. You'll never believe who opened for them; Montrose and Van Halen. One of the best concerts I've ever been to out of the 100 I attended over 20 years.
i love that you posted those lyrics before you shared your story. Must have been an incredible experience, ill always be sad for never seeing Dio live, let alone Rainbow.
Hej 👋, han kan ju lira
I bet that was awesome!!!!
In 1980 it was Montrose, Van Halen and Journey. I saw Journey 3 or 4 times after. Sad, I never saw Rainbow.
Best guitar solo of all times. Incredible.
Incredible track. Dio absolutely outstanding, as you’d expect. They just don’t make music like this any more. Outstanding.
Bob's performance on this song is superlative!
Dio had an amazing voice !!! Best singer in rock and heavy metal historiy ...
Blackmore took hard rock and early metal to another level with this band. Everyone that plays hard guitar will tell you that Ritchie is a huge influence.
Gates Of Babylon - одна из лучших вещей Rainbow, Дио великий рок-вокалист, Блэкмор на пике музыкальности, единое целое с гитарой, полный восторг! Gates Of Babylon будут слушать и восхищаться еще ооочень долго!
Если не самая лучшая😊
@@stonecold6189 у Блэкмора всё самое лучшее .
@@user-zo1hr8xe1xне забывайте,Блекмор ещё играл .....,,в Блэк Саббате и легенда Дипплы))))

Deep Purple and Rainbow real music .The Best !!
After several years of listening to this song, that keyboard intro still creeps me the fuck out.
Jeremy Clarkson Listens to rainbow!?!!
Did not know jeremy Clarkson was a communist.
One of the greatest Metal songs ever!
This is the ultimate song right after the Stargazer. Rainbow had so many of those ultimate ones. ❤🤘
Vaya obra de arte, para quitarse el sombrero ❤ OLÉ, OLÉ 😊 FELICIDADES Y UN SALUDO, PARA TODOS, LOS FANS. ❤😊😊😊
This is a real rock and roll! Great Rainbow!
I saw Rainbow in Houston ,Tx. On this tour. I’ve seen over 2500 concerts. This concert is in my top 5. This was an amazing concert. Dio and Blackmore are just music gods.
Just love to watch Richie play. Never gets old.
2023 i am still there this song is so amazing DIO is the best R. I. P. 😢
Absolutely incredible performance from what would now be considered a "Supergroup". Cozy was SO CLOSE to a reunion of this lineup before his tragic passing....then RJD, then Jimmy Bain both left us. You don't know how great something is till its gone.
Broncort1
It's Bob Daisley on this recording on the bass, not Jimmy Bain.
Jimmy Bain was on Long Live Rock and Roll I think.
@@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812 You are not thinking right - it was Bob Daisley playing bass.
Ritchie looks like he's muttering some sort of incantation during the solo.
Grace Becraft
Knowing Ritchie Blackmore, he probably was.
+Grace Becraft he's probably saying "stay the hell away from me with that camera! did you people not learn anything from California Jam?
Young and handsome
Reciting grocery list....eggs milk butter
Haha, I thought he was terrified of all that.
this song is probably the best thing the legend that is Ronnie James Dio sang. i got the hairs on my back and arms standing and tears in my eyes. so powerful
Кто помнит великие времена?!!!!!!!!!!!!
Я,Уважаемый))так же слушаю это произведение ,как и Вы,мне 33😊
My favorite Rainbow song and one of my top 5 all time favorites....
Amazing Song. I Love Ronnie and Ritchie Here...Sad That it ended..But all Things Great or Small..End..This Band Was In My Opinion The Best Version of Rainbow..
Agreed!
This song es epic, hypnotic, the solo? a master piece.
ボビイジーン
Always loved Blackmores playing! I followed him from Deep Purple to Rainbow. You can always hear his playing as it stands out as Blackmore every time!
This masterpiece gives me shivers each time I listen to it! Out of this planet! Dio and Blackmore, honey and butter, what a combination!
Blackmore's solo ! A babylonian four thousands years old melody reincarnated in the 20th century! Those dives and quarter tones on a half tones instrument, a genius of devilish music!!!
This divine voice
Blackmore-Dio-Powell the best trio ever....
Nothing will ever come close to Dio! the power, the magic
One of the greatest voice of all time as I believe no singer on earth can sing with such a clarity in such a high pitch perfect it is simply not possible.
There is a Man :
Klaus Meine from the Scorpions !
I should thanks to my brother for introducing
me Heavy Metal. Already 3 years he passed away but I still can’t believe it. Miss you bro. RIP
