- It has been far too long since I've had Ronnie James Dio on this channel, and a select few of you have been screaming for me to check this specific performance of "Mistreated" by Rainbow. However, just because I'm watching Dio's performance doesn't mean I won't check the David Coverdale original out, so stay tuned.
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Rainbow performing "Mistreated" for the first time.

Elizabeth and Dio, a never-ending story #letsgettoit
Elizabeth & Dio, a story for the ages that would make a fantastic time travel type movie. Though her husband would surely protest...
@@andychisarick6879 Elisabeth and Kirk's journey through the wild world of music? Sounds like a David Attenborough style BBC documentary
In this episode: Wild Mozart, thoughtful Leopold and too many notes!
I may be mistaken, but I think she likes him.
Thank God!!!!!🤘💜
he has a wife.
in my opinion, Ronnie's years in Rainbow are when his voice was at its absolute best.
Actually it was his finest, but his absolute best performance for me is Butterfly ball.
Agreed!
Rainbow 🌈 eyes 👀 is a great example of your quote.
Dio's voice, was always spectacular , but for me or for my taste , Especially during " Holy diver " and " last in line(" , era). That says, a lot about what a great singer he was. The heaven and hell, era, was also beyond reproach. Best metal singer, ever!
Yep!
Ronnie will be putting goosebumps on people's arms for 100 years to come.
100% agree with you. It's corny but Dio saved my life. I was on the verge of suicide when my older brother came for a visit on a whim with a new record he just bought. I had already stolen my fathers revolver and had it in my room. My bro pops in, "hey man, new album by that guy you like sang with Rainbow. Check it out" and then "Stand Up and Shout" blasted over the speakers and we sat and listened to the whole thing. Me sitting in front of the stereo and him by the window smoking a joint. (Gen X kids, right?) and then at the end he left, leaving the record with me and then I put my father's gun where it belongs.
I doubled down on my martial arts training, went on to win national and world tournaments. So... I say again, Ronnie James Dio saved my life. Now I'm (old)years old. Got grandkids, retired. I'm overall happy.
I'm so glad you were able to get through that extreme depression. Suicidal thoughts is something I still feel society doesn't pay enough attention to. Ever think of speaking to those who struggle with this?
Waoooo your bro is a hero nice You didn't committed
I'm glad you're here man ! Rock is the best thing to get inside you and change you for the best. The lyrics, the groove,the riffs it really changes you.
I still hear the same music for decades, and I will keep doing it.
What a story, sir! It's a testament to the profound power of music. So good Dio contributed you sticking around. THAT'S magic.
@namoric "You are the strongest chain, and you're not just some reflection, so never hide again!" "You are the driver, you own the road, you've got desire, go on explode, so let it out, you are the Power, STAND UP AND SHOUT, let it out!" 🙌💪🤘🔮💫
Let’s not forget the amazing Cozy Powell. What a performance.
honestly I love Cozy but he did not have Paicey's (who is the GOAT imo) touch and finesse and in this song it is actually quite obvious
always.
You beat me to it, Cozy Powell is incredible! Shout out to bassist Bob Daisley too, a steady force here, and in many other great bands.
@@zdenkonouzovsky6947 And although I love them both Bonham is still king!
@@MLawrence2008 I do not have anything against anyone having a favorite musician, nevertheless, as a drummer myself, Paice was way more musical, more technical, faster, had chops for days. Paice could play anything Bonzo did but Bonzo would not be able to pull off everything that Paice did.
I love everything by Rainbow with dio, but still in my heart "Catch the rainbow" holds a special place, I love how melodic Dio is in that song i love the difference in style and his mellow bluesy voice just melts like butter. Getting chills just thinking about it. All the love from Greece stay healthy and safe
Agreed. I have been waiting for Elizabeth to do Catch the Rainbow. ❤
great song
Yes!!! And Rainbow Eyes that's very operatic!!!
@@tracycarbone934 honestly this should be made into series about whole discography. 😀

DIO IS SIMPLY THE GREATEST ROCK VOCALIST EVER !
Correction, the greatest VOCALIST of all time, regardless of genre, he mastered them ALL!
I would say Paul Rodgers is!
fred mercury
Geoff Tate
burton cummings.
I was 16 when I was at that concert. I will never ever forget the experience. Just magic.
so lucky
It's such a privilege to watch Elizabeth fangirl to all our childhood heroes cause she's outwardly expressing what we've felt (and still feel) on the inside! It's impossible to not giggle like a fool and to not live vicariously through her experience when she's so excited and positive.
Isn't she great, 💭 tho! She is just sooo spot on, she not only nails the voices and artists nuances, she's usually a fan herself-- umm, I just wish she wasn't married!😝
It also must be said that this filmed/recorded performance captured them on a very good night. I was around back then, saw both purple and rainbow twice, and many other bands through that era. Touring was very different in the seventies and early eighties. Except for the bootleggers, there were no cameras or microphones in the audience. Bands often had bum nights on the road. It could be anything: sound wasn't great in the arena, or they were hung over, there were problems with transportation, food, drugs, fans, groupies, or a simple thing as staying in a bad hotel. Bands back in the seventies and early eighties usually travelled as light as they could.
They didn't have the massive supporting crew that became the norm later, when they might (depending on budget) have their own cooks, trainers, doctors, and PR people along for the ride. Everything necessary to keep the talent functioning (Rolling Stones and Fleetwood Mac are two examples).
In addition, a song like “Mistreated” or let's say Zeppelins “Since I've been Loving You” were wide open to emotional and improvisational input. It was expected to be that way. They took and accepted greater risks in live settings than bands do today. No one held up an iPhone in the front row back then. It must be said, though, that the current crop of “jam” bands accepts this challenge with gusto.
Mistreated, the song, as presented here, was and is an example of every thing falling into place. Dio was at his very top. I'm guessing this is recorded somewhere in Europe. Richie in all his bands always seemed to perform at his best closer to home. Made in Japan is a stellar exception, though.
Cheers 🍺
It should also be mentioned, for those that don't know, that Rainbow was not a democratically formed band. Richie departed from Deep Purple to cherry-pick the individuals of what was to become Rainbow. He picked Dio as the singer, but Dio was never allowed to be spokesperson or the representative of the band.
It was genius of Richie to pick him as the singer, but it wasn't going to last because of the massive ego of Richie.
Cheers 🍺
I find it very inspiring that people are analyzing and reviewing the music that I was blessed to grow up listening too. I think the quality and talent of that era of music will be hard to duplicate.
Watching Elizabeth react to so much of this music makes me appreciate it anew after decades. Sometimes in an entirely different way, because I’m not a trained singer or musing theorist and have only vaguely, unconsciously intuited many of the things she points out. And she has so much fun! It’s infectious. Elizabeth adds an extra helping of joy to my life. ❤
I think because David Coverdale wrote and sang this first, Dio really had to raise his game on this, because he was going to get comparisons. It's a great song. I love both Coverdale and Dio versions.
Joe Lynn’s is good too.
Every song he covered after Ozzy and this one he raised the bar ro untouchable!!💜🤘
Ian Gillan is probably the best pure singer out of all them that sang for Ritchie..
@pulsarlights2825 No, he is not. This guy is.
In don't think Dio raised his game on this song. Dio was just being Dio. When has Dio not sounded awesome? I can't think of a song from the Rainbow days to his death where he didn't give it all.
One of the best live performances in the history of music. In general, "Rainbow live on stage" album is a piece of art.
I believe the best live album ever, even (slightly) better than Made in Japan.
Loved that album when I was young. Still wonderful decades later.
@@artnazIt is a great album, but the Santana album 'Moonflower' is probably my favourite live album.
Add to that Made In Japan by DP and Live in Dallas by Judas.
Catch the Rainbow live is why God invented the Strat
Sad to say that we will never hear a singer like Ronnie James Dio again, He will always be the king on the silver mountain.
Check out Dino Jelusick!
Dio and Blackmore together, two of the greatest ever!
Heavy rock's Lennon & McCartney 😂
Ritchie Blackmore top 3 guitarist in his day.
The greatest in his day !
Yes. Dio and Blackmore.
The guitar is also a voice that can express emotion. Not many players can move me, but Blackmore did, and so did Gilmour and Schenker.
Same here, all 3 are great
Don't forget Randy Rhoads. High impact for, sadly, a very short time.
Alvin Lee, Pat Travers, Page and Plant's back and forth is legendary!
Gary Moore
Op, which Schenker? Btw, love the Scorps!
I've asked a million times, hoping it will show up one day! RAINBOW 'Man On The Silver Mountain' LIVE in Munich 1977, the 14:45 minute long version! Not only is it full of Ronnie singing acopella, it has some of the most BEAUTIFUL guitar work you've ever seen. Prepare for a LONG video when you do that one. You'll see a lot more of Ronnie!
I hope Elizabeth sees this cos his voice on this is EPIC!🤘🤘🤘
Catch The Rainbow from this same show is insanely good as well. Elizabeth might pass out if she watches that one.
The entire Munich show is pure gold through and through.
Yeah, important to do the full version with the solo!
That performance of that song is unlike anything I've ever heard. Incredibly unique.
@@DrunkPopTart4 Agreed, i am 31 but my father has been feeding me dio and old school rock since i was younger. Seeing people react to this the same way I did is a treat.
I agree ,it’s one of the greatest performances ever .
A lot of younger people today will never understand just how glorious Ronnie's voice is
Or Ritchie Blackmore incredible guitar work.
Ritchie & Ronnie were meant to make music together. I always enjoy watching you get all fangirl over hearing Ronnie's incredible voice.
Dio is one of those dudes who could share half of their talent and still be fantastic.
This is the best Mistreated guitar intro made by Ritchie (at least recorded). Amazing what he did...together with Taurus bass pedals.
Honestly, as far as Im concerned this is one of the best rock performances of all time. Everyone is on point but man Dio is just electrifying. This is probably my favorite Dio performance, he never lets up, from beginning all the way to that mind-blowing ending.
Glad to know its coming here !!!
Can't wait to learn about this, I mean this song really is like a treatise in singing, very exciting
this whole show, catch the rainbow is a killer as well
Probably the best official recorded Dio performance in existence. Not that he wasn’t on (bafflingly) night after night, decade after decade, but he is on fire in this one. Is there one recorded performance where he was off, even slightly?
I agree. I'm very much into 60s psychedelic rock but man, I get goosebumps every time I hear this song.
I feel absolutely the same way you do about this. This is next level rock and roll performance.
Still I'm Sad from the same concert is even more impressive.
The "Catch The Rainbow" version from this exact concert is soooo good. They just extend it to like 15 minutes. Best concert ever. Blackmore was apparently 2 hours late because he was held up in jail in Munich before this show, so they decided to really out-do themselves for the waiting fans. My dad saw them live in Norway on this tour, and the concert location couldn't power up the huge rainbow lights, so they had to give it everything musically to make up for it. He still talks about that concert to this day as being almost like a supernatural experience.
I agree about Catch the Rainbow. Very different from the (already stellar) album version, and I'm so glad for that.
I agree! "Catch The Rainbow" from this concert (if you can find the 17 minute Munich version) is beyond incredible and brings me to tears every single time! I hope The Charismatic Voice takes a listen.
Yeah Ritchie was stoked that night, after being arrested after the previous show for kicking a security guard in the head. Cause the guard was attacking a young female fan.

@@menfaaanda god bless the internet
I love the fact that as teenagers who heard this we kind of took it for granted without realizing how great artists like RJD really were, but now I get to SEE how wonderful these artists were through Elizabeth's expertise. It really gives me a newfound appreciation.
I don’t know if we took it for granted or not , but we sure smoked a lotta weed listening to it ! 😂
I was lucky enough to see him live three times. Once with Rainbow, once with Black Sabbath and once with his own band Dio.He was fantastic and his voice only got better with age.
"Catch the rainbow" from the same concert, is one of the most beautiful sung by him,.. memorable interpretation!!! Do it next, you won't regret it!!!
In my books the versions from On Stage or Live in Germany 76 are exceptional plus from the studio lest we forget Temple of the King
Ritchie Blackmore's genius is so under appreciated it'd ridiculous
Dio, Blackmore and Cozy Powell. What a band. We grew up with them, and now we rejoice looking at your reactions. Now you could understand how we felt back in the 70's as we were kids. This is the music of Paradise. Try the man on the silver mountain and the temple of the king
Watching Elizabeth enjoying a vocalist as much if not more than alot of us that have been listening to for 40 odd years does the old ticker good . Will never be another Dio ...bless us all that still hear Dio
The best band
The best vocalist
The best guitarist
The best Elizabeth ❤︎
And the best drummer
Jimmy Bain and Tony Carey weren't too shabby either!
@@grahamnunn8998 Agree. I saw Rainbow on this tour in Gothenburg -77, and have always thought until today that it was the full Rising lineup with Bain and Carey. But they are not here.
I should have checked my DVD, I though this was earlier! Still Bob Daisley has had a pretty amazing career too!
Ritchie Blackmore, as influential as he is, still managed to be severely underrated.
Yeah by the masses maybe, guitarists don’t underrate him.
Not by me.
I love Blackmore's Night, he and his wife are fantastic, id love to see a reaction to Candice her voice.
Mr. Richard Hugh Blackmore as great as He is & the music He created. Remains very misunderstood…
Untouchable!!!, dave coverdale voice is unique, but Dio is a complete different histoty. I feel that he is the best singer had ever lived.
Aww, we lost one of the best when Ronnie left us. His voice was one of a kind and encapsulated everything about rock and metal, keeping it bluesy and yet adding an operatic feel to it.
Glad you spent time on Ritchie's solo. He has a very Neoclassical background, much of his love was classic musicians. He also ties in his love for medieval styling, which is why he has progressed in life with his band Blackmore's Night". Ritchie is one of the best at creating space and sound. His music has so much feel. When you watch him play a solo, much of the time he closes his eyes and let's the music flow from his fingers. Simply one of the greatest!
I’ve seen Dio live twice, Last in Line and Sacred Heart tours. What an awesome vocalist Ronnie was!
Sacred Heart tour was my first arena concert experience! What a show!
I have seen many legendary bands, new and old. One thing has always stuck to my mind... Front row, right in front of Dio with one leg on the monitor, red light coming from below upwards, horns up in the air and he singing his lungs out and looking like the devil doing it. There are bands that are considered this and that, but not one of them can touch Dio live.
I'm so thankful that I saw Dio with Black Sabbath for the Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules tour as well as some of his solo career including Holy Diver, Last in Line and Dream Evil. Just a fantastic performer.
The Sacred Heart tour was the best concert I ever saw. Blew my 16 year old mind!
My first Dio show was The Last In Line. Bon-Jovi went on first from their first album, then Dokken from their Tooth and Nail album. One of the best shows I saw as young teen!!! 🍻🤟
Its so ...sad. That nobody is doing ELF by Dio.
Dio is the greatest singer period, he could sing the phone book and have the audience in tears.
His death has left a huge hole in the music industry, R.I.P. Dio.
You should also hear Ronnie with Rainbow singing Still I'm sad. That song is incredibly moving.
but with the drum solo from Cozy!
@@dirkboing4219 An incredible solo
one of my absolute favourite. on stage version is real killer
@@cango5679 I completely agree 👍
Mistreated from Rainbow, done, check! Now you’re ready for the glorious RJD vocal performance on Sign of the Southern Cross from Black Sabbath, the studio version. If you like his falsetto, you will be delighted🤘🏻🤩
I would also add, from the Sabbath times, Over and Over!
Dork !! You are such a musical dork. AND WE LOVE IT !!!! Watching you lose you mind over the magic that is Dio reminds us of the gift that he truly was to music. Thanks for another amazing video.
Dio is the best singer in rock history. No doubt in my opinion.
I put him together with Rob Halford as the best ever and then Steve Perry and Freddy Mercury being very close to them. Something simply amazing to listen to
@@valentinomarinozzi9681 Dio was a way better singer than Halford ! I think Rob himself would agree. Freddie Mercury comes closer to his level
Better or worse is always an opinion. If we talk about range, Dio, Rob Halford, Ian Gillan, Robert Plant, Bruce Dickinson and few others they all reach a 4 octaves range. Halford maybe 4 & 1/2, more than anyone else. I put Dio and Halford on top just because they proved during their carrier to be able to use their voices and their range in a very differenti kind of music and being able to model timber to express emotions. Again, this Is my opinion, but we can't say Halford Is worse because that means you didn't listen a lot Judas Priest
@@valentinomarinozzi9681 you're right, I misspoke. Dio was not 'way' better than Halford. I did listen quite a lot to Priest in recent years and come to think of it, his output is impressive. I just think Ronnie and Freddie were just uniquer and a bit more powerful as vocalists during the course of their carreer. That's not to say Rob is a bad singer at all. He's great
They are all incredibile! We are very lucky to hear their voice singing like they are able to 😉
Ronnie's singing in the song "Still I'm Sad" from the same concert is even more impressive believe it or not!
You should really check out 'Deep Purple with Ronnie James Dio and orchestra' singing 'sitting in a dream' and 'love is all', PHENOMENAL. It's from the late 1990's, a reunion of the GREATEST talent we HAD. Seems to all be gone now, or at least what is being FED to us. Anyway, it is a GORGEOUS LIVE performance showing that Ronnie NEVER LOST ANY OF IT no matter his age.
And watching the conductor during 'Love is All' is almost as fun as watching Ronnie!!
I second your recommendation, indeed Phenomenal
Studio version of "Homeward" added for an epic reaction.
I love me some Dio music, and I know there's a lot I haven't heard, but how have I not heard this one before now! It seems like Dio is Fantastic with his solo stuff, but his Rainbow stuff is Excellent! I even liked the bluesy sound his other band Elf had. This man has dominated so many bands and his own, and he will always be playing where ever I go and no matter how old I get!
Richie is absolutely unique and unmatchable. He does more with less that is, not showy even though he can shred all day long. He doesn't get the love that players like Clapton or Page get.
Which is sad as he was miles better than both of them
He is loved in Eastern Europe, many would put him in the top 10, if not top 5 rock guitarists. For some reason he's getting overlooked in the US though.
Now days shredding seems to be the standard of greatness. NO doubt the masters Hendrix, Blackmore, Allman, Page, Clapton, and Gallagher could do it...just elected for their own style instead of mimicking. Blackmore is one of the most precise guitar players I have ever heard. Like he picks each note out for maximum effect.
Ritchie Blackmore was a top 3 guitarist in world in his day easy.
I love Ritchie
I waited years for this reaction
I've still been waiting years for Sacred Heart live.
Wonderful thoughtful review - Rainbow Eyes, Temple of the King, Catch the Rainbow live from On Stage - the magic of Blackmore and Dio compositions
After watching thus reaction I went to Whitesnake at Donnington 1983 and watched that version. Its awesome and has a completely different feel - Cozy on drums again, Jon Lord on keyboards with Mel Galley and Micky Moody on guitar. The Gibson gives the guitar a completely different vibe - very agressive. If Dio was adult regret in his rendition, David Coverdale is young man rage. I discovered I love them both because they are not imitating each other - they both bring different energy. ❤
love Dio's version of this but this song is a David Coverdale classic, when he was in his prime he melted the soul with this song. Lucky enough to have been at Donington 83 when he did Mistreated and floored me. Over all Ronnie is Genius but early Coverdale is simply stunning. His Solo Northwinds is beautiful and the early bluesy Coverdale is second to none, checkout Blindman or ain't gonna cry no more today., Burn is awesome too.
This is a masterclass by top-notch musicians. I said a long time ago (been around for a while :)) that this would be best served as a double-header with the Made in Europe or the more disheveled California Jam Deep Purple versions. This is David Coverdale's song and he was amazing. But, I'd say, David had to have cried when he heard this.
Undoubtedly
I love this! I was fortunate to have known Ronnie since 1989 and until his last tour with Heaven and Hell and not long before he died and had many conversations about music. First, his wonderful parents played the famous opera singer, Mario Lanza records a lot at home and Ronnie heard that and he believed that may have influenced or inspired him. Second, his first love as a child was to play baseball and one day his father said you are going to play music so he took young Ronnie to the music store and told Ronnie to pick out a horn and Ronnie picked a trumpet and was told to practice 4 hours a day, and I think 7 days a week. This developed his vocal breathing and power. Later, one of the bands he was playing in and the singer left so the guitarist first tried to sing and it didn't work and reluctantly, Ronnie tried and it immediately worked and he said it came easily. Third, Ronnie had a strong work ethic which carried his entire career. He kept a notebook of lyrics and ideas for songs. He was well prepared and also aware of his vocal health and prepared to improvise melodies when his voice was tired which he managed very well because he was often tired. He was tired because he would stay and sign an autograph for every last fan. Yet his voice was nearly always strong. I say nearly because that is what he told me and I know Ronnie was a perfectionist with the ability to adapt when necessary. I can tell you that I NEVER heard him strain his voice while singing both during rehearsals or live performances. Forth, everything you hear about Ronnie was true. He was a well spoken true gentleman from New York (and a NY street smart vibe), educated, and incredibly intelligent, generous. One time we were at a pub in Woodland Hills and a couple fans recognized him and he welcomed them, bought them a pint of beer and had a nice conversation with them. The first time I went to his incredible house he took me on a tour and we ended up at his bar and he asked me what I wanted. I asked him what he is having? He said a Sambuca and a beer. I said I'll have that too please. Then he lit up a big joint! He is also VERY Italian. I would not want to be on his bad side. He was tiny, but he was a fighter not afraid to take on anyone and ignoring his body guards. He also had a LOT of pride and could hold a grudge and was really upset when BS fired him, and then later when BS opened for OZZY at a show in (I think Irvine) and Ronnie refused to do the show so they got Rob Halford to sing. That really hurt Ronnie. Honestly a great guy. Grateful I got to meet and hang out with this man on many occasions.
It's fantastic to watch you express the same *awe, joy, and passion* for Dio's vocals that most of us have known for a lifetime! He is dearly missed. 🖤 🤘
Also, check out "Mistreated" sung by Glenn Hughes (from Deep Purple) with his solo band or The Dead Daises ... or Dino Jelusick (who filled in for Glenn on a few Dead Daisies shows). They're both amazing, too! 🎤
Hands down one of my favourite live perf. Ever.
Probably the best live, vocal, rock performance ever recorded!
What a great New Years gift this reaction was! I knew this performance would blow you away! It has always been one of my favorites. Now, you need to listen to the song Rainbow Eyes. To my knowledge, there are no live performances of it on video, so you would have to listen to the studio version. It is such a beautiful song, and it's a whole new facet to Ronnie's voice that is just gorgeous.
Rainbow was literally the Ritchie Blackmore Show, or at least he wanted it to be that way (and audiences didn’t mind)
And yes, he often literally played Bach and Beethoven etc in these improvisations he did before/in/after songs. So also in this show, the only fully filmed one btw. There is only the TV sound, and that means mono... but the energy is just insane. One of the best concert films of all time i think.
And what he was doing with his hand when Elizabeth asked about him "shaking" his hand is him hitting the strings to create harmonics.
Always a joy when you cover Ronnie.
Absolutely ❤ 💯
Love is All (Butterfly Ball) by Roger Glover, with Dio on vocals, was one of my absolute fave songs as a young kid. Great film clip as well!!
You have no idea how creepy that video was as a kid at that time.
@@chaptermasterpedrokantor1623 I WAS a kid at that time, and loved it!
@@Greygoateebloke It's a good song, but that was one psychedelic video.
a classic in belgium I think :-) (or was it netherlands?) Love is all
@@cango5679 It was huge here in Australia.
In the 70s the first time I heard Dio I was in awe of his range, his tone, the way he controls every breath for the best result.
and he makes it look effortless. Great lead man too!!!!
This was a cover originally sang by Coverdale w/Deep Purple, Dio made this rendition his own. You would never know this wasn't his own . Sang with so much power and emotion. Brilliant!
Yes! Mentioned this to you before so I'm excited. No dissespect to Coverdale's original vocal but Ronnie's is simply in another league, it stunned me when I heard it as a teenager.
It's just a shame that Dios league is 4 divisions below coverdale.
@@Jeff_VaderLol, no.
Coverdale is great, but no.
Dio's only peer is Mercury.
@@Jeff_Vaderha, I think you should pass around whatever you have been smoking. It must be really great shit.
@@colrhodes377 its you that seems to be on the hallucinogenic.
@Jeff_Vader nooooo. Coverdale was great, no doubt whatsoever. Dio, is however beyond anything David Coverdale could fo.
Coverdale is amazing on this song and Dio does an amazing job I guess it’s just your own personal choice but I’m not gonna get into the debate about who is the best singer we should just enjoy both versions and appreciate both singers
I am very old but that means I was lucky enough to see and hear Ronnie with Rainbow 🌈 live in 1976 and 1977 at Liverpool Empire theatre. He was awesome. R. I. P.
There is no other Dio performance that does as much vocally as here, i think this is one of the best videos of Dio ever if not THE BEST.
Dio overshadowed everyone he played with…
And he played with some of the greatest there ever was.
I was lucky to "Catch The Rainbow" during their 1976 American "Rainbow Rising" Tour - they were supporting Thin Lizzy who cancelled when Phil Lynott contracted hepatitus, so Ritchie Blackmore and Company played for 2 hours that night - they played the entire "Rising" and "Blackmore's Rainbow" albums plus some choice Deep Purple material - I wish I could have filmed it but the live DVD brings back all the memories - so glad you're enjoying Dio and Rainbow - all Rainbow fans are united today❤🎸
We really are!! Our week has been made. It will really be hard for Elizabeth to top this one!!🤘💜
The one thing that you can't get from these videos,is how loud these shows were. They would penetrate every cell of your body right to the core. Leaving these shows your ears would ring for an hour or more.
I was impatiently waiting for you to discover this interpretation of Mistreated that I have known since the end of the 70s. It's so enjoyable.
This finger twirling thing he does when his holding the mic might be a remnant from the time he played the trumpet. Extraordinary analysis as always, and the way you are melting listening to Dio's voice will never get old.
I’m very proud to say that I was present at a show from this tour in London, I was around 15. It's hard to convey the impact of that experience, a time when TV and radio were not very interesting, no cell phones or internet. A time when not much was happening, and then you are at this show - or rather, 'experiencing' this show, wow! While the UA-cam footage captures the great sound and visuals, being physically present at the gig multiplies that greatness by a hundred thousand. It's like the entire music hall is charged with an electrifying atmosphere of wildly positive vibes. Even now, I can still vividly recall the overwhelming excitement. Truly amazing.
What an amazing experience to behold!!! You are lucky!!🤘💜
I saw them in Gothenburg, and what stuck most with me all the years is the drum solo by Cozy Powell, the whole platform with the drum set on starting to rise up from the stage and moving towards the audience and then a magnesium(?) flash so you were blinded for several seconds and when sight returned Cozy's platform was back in place and the whole band was full on again. One of my absolutely best concerts ever.
@@dolf370 Gothenburg haha, I have a Hagstrom on order, should be arriving in the next couple of days, but yes excellent concert, think they were all good in this period, cant realy say which was my best, like around the same period I saw Sabbath on their never say die tour, with a support band that no one had heard of... Van Halen, never seen a support band literally get the people standing and jumping on their seats
oh yes very lucking to be born in a time where music was the only language of the youth @@tracycarbone934
Rainbow at the rainbow. Sept or nov 77. Gig had been rescheduled and the tickets had the old date crossed out in blue felt pen. Saw that and the first monsters of rock in 80. Best of days
Fucking hell, what a time to be alive, imagine watching this live!!!
You said it best Elizabeth: RJD's voice is simply ridiculous. His range is sick and so powerful.
As such, we can never forget his timeless vocals. Thank you for your super analysis and admiration of a legend!!
Can't get enough of Elizabeth's reactions to the dearly missed RJD! 🥰🤘
If you liked his falsetto there toward the end listen to the studio cut of "Rainbow Eyes". And have a box of tissues ready.
As a guitarist and Blackmore fanatic, I love seeing your appreciation for Ritchie growing!!!
Elizabeth I’ve never seen you swoon so much. Dio is that amazing but hearing your feedback only confirms it. When we hear something great we fall back in our chair, when we hear something extraordinary we lean forward into it. You totally fell forward into this song and Dio’s vocals. Great review!
It's a damn shame he's not around anymore; at least he left us with some great music.
"It's been far too long since we've had Dio."
I swear I'm just gonna find Kirk's Dm and spoil Sacred Heart live for him so he knows how important it is that you see it.
we're so lucky all to even have this Munich recording, I think it's the only Rainbow-with-Dio concert that was ever filmed professionally. I believe the gig was almost cancelled as well. They were in Switzerland the night before, and the band got robbed. They lost their passports etc. So this concert started at one o 'clock at night, I think
Yes exactly.
Its a historic document.
Was it not Vienna ?
Mr. RB got jailed.
Ritchie's Rainbow sound was based on a few key components. His use of Renaissance scales, pre-CBS early 70s Fender Stratocasters with slight pickup and electronics modifications, his custom Jim Marshall designed 200 Watt amp heads, one or multiple Hornby-Skewes treble booster/s, a German Schulte Phase A stompbox, an AIWA TP-1010 tape recorder modded to create the delay we all hear and love, and - the most important input - his decades of dedicated practice and playing - makes this sound possible. It is his unique and immediately recognizable trademark, IMHO.... 🥰🎸
Dio is the best for me...saw him twice and was amazing...and this is one the best line-up's as well
Oh man, I've been waiting for you to check out this one! Might be Dio's best live performance that's out there (though there are some awesome late-career, Heaven & Hell clips, too).
As a follow-up to this, the original version with David Coverdale in Deep Purple is absolutely worth seeing, too.
I am so happy your finally getting to experience this performance. I've been waiting for YEARS to hear your reaction!
Without a shadow of a doubt one of the most iconic vocal performances by the Legend RJD. My childhood hero , I was hoping you would cover this performance Elizabeth. This is one of the greatest by any band and Blackmore , Cozy and Daisley were epic. How a live band should sound, imagine being there back in the day. Thanks for this review.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again you have to analyse 'Rainbow Eyes ' by Rainbow. So different to anything you have heard Dio sing so far.❤ from the UK. Hope you and your family feel better soon.
YES ELIZABETH!!! RAINBOW EYES AS WELL!!!
Yes and Temple of the King and Catch the Rainbow
Whaat a great Mellow Dio!!! Nice choice!!
For me Ronnie James Dio and Geoff Tate, formerly of Queensryche are the two most outstanding hard rock/metal vocalists.
So glad she did this. Top 3 performances EVER
I can't describe the joy I get out of watching Elizabeth enjoy RJD every single time she hears him again. I've been a huge fan since I first heard him when I was 12 yo and I've spent the last 37 years sharing my love of Ronnie James with others. He deserves to be shared, appreciated and loved as much as possible and I hope he's looking down from heaven and seeing how many people he's touched and inspired. 🤘🤘
Another song that I think that you would like that Dio sings is "Love is All" from Roger Glover's solo album The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast. There is a live video with Ronnie, Deep Purple and The London Symphony Orchestra that would fit on your Happy playlist
Yes, yes, fudging yes.
@@colrhodes377 Abso-fudging-lutely! 😋
Sitting In A Dream, as long as we’re in the Butterfly Ball.
Yes, another side to Dio!!
I love that video and even though it is a pretty crap version, Gillan and Dio singing Smoke together is very touching.
I love Butterfly Ball, Roger had some heavy friends.
You keep returning to Dio just as often as you like! Dio, Floor Jansen, and Bruce Dickinson I just will never never tire of.
Three of my all time favorites as well! Good choices!
Hard yes!
Total Agreement!
Let's please start the Steve Perry too though!
Oh my god! Ronnie James Dio gets me everytime, he is just phenomenal, I patterned my singing after him. Really miss him, its even more special for me as he died on my birthday. What can you say about Richie Blackmore, just the best, no one has ever sounded like him or ever will.
His annunciation is incredible too while doing all the variation he does. One of the few rockers that you don't have to refer to a lyric sheet to know what they sung.
Fantastic lineup of Rainbow here - you have Dio, you have Blackmore (the Dio of guitar), Cozy Powell (the Dio of drums) and Bob Daisley on bass, who later was instrumental in some of the best hard rock songs of the 1980s when with Ozzy.
YES!!!! One of my favorite performances. So looking forward to this.
Possibly the Greatest Live Rock performance EVER !
I saw Rainbow in 77 at Liverpool Empire - absolutely amazing and Dio was mind blowing with his vocals ! Incidentally they did two dates in Liverpool- I was at the first one and apparently on the second the place got trashed and they were banned from playing there again !
Fun fact: The outfit that Dio wore here really caught my attention way backin 79. Fortunately for me, my Aunt Lorna was great with a sewing machine and she made me an exact copy . I really treasured it and i wore it the first time that i met Ronnie, who was really impressed with it.
I cannot thank you enough for this reaction. I love music in general, and DIO is my favorite singer. This is for me, DIO’s greatest live performance, and that is saying something because he even sounds better live than in studio. I will put your reaction on a 24h loop. BTW I shared your goosebumps and the end of the song, and I have heard it hundreds of times. In the future, you can also explore DIO’s very early days from the late 50’s and 60’s. Look for Ronnie and the redcaps. He was for example the first that that sung an English version of the famous “the way of love” (yeah before Cher), or his cover of “Dream on” with Yngwie Malmsteen. Anyway, thanks again so much!!!
He did well with his earlier band Elf, too!
he sure did, their music was also catchy@@brheinfeldt
It truly was!!
Same!!!
Dream on: Dio + Malmsteen AND Greg Bissonnette AND Stu Hamm And Paul Taylor... talk about an all-star band!!!
Chewed through his words couldn't have been a better statement! Ronnie was a casual friend. An awesome man and talent with a heart to match his voice to us fans. It could be a couple or more years between tours, but when you talked with him in the hospitality suite, he always remembered your name and loved to talk sports. His warm up for his vocals was literally, a couple of beers and smoke a joint. Rock In Peace Ronnie and thank you for the friendship and all the years of music.🙏🏻
I’ve been listening to Dio for 40 years now and still find him amazing! It’s great to see someone finding and appreciating him even after so long after his heyday and untimely death. Gotta agree with Nederlandxx73 re “Catch the rainbow”. Great track!
David Coverdale ain't an amateur, but Dio is just THAT unmatchable!
