    How could anyone "NOT" be impressed with Dio, and Blackmore's Rainbow. Modern rock, mixed with baroque, Renaissance, and medieval-classical influenced fusion, which started a whole new genre of rock music, lasting decades to come. A band that influenced, and launched thousands of musical careers. And it was awesome to see her so entranced by Ritchie's guitar solo. She looked like she was about to sploosh all over her chair. Thats just how I felt when I first listened to Ritchie. Unbelievable! I am happy to see the music of my generation still appreciated. Thank you for that.

    Ronnie was a master of stagecraft, he stood 5'4" but had a voice as big as a mountain and could captivate an audience all the way to the rafters with his incredible stage presence. Rainbow had 3 solid albums of music with Ronnie, not a bad song to be found on any of them, Temple of the King is a standout from the first album, a beautiful bard's ballad.

      I could not agree more. For some reason "A Light in the Black" has become the forgotten twin sister to "Stargazer". It really deserves it's place in the sun. That being said, "Tarot Woman" would also make a great song to react to.

    I've heard this song literally hundreds of times by now, and it still blows me away...easily one of the greatest metal songs ever written. Ronnie James Dio (RIP) was simply the greatest metal vocalist of all time. His career spans decades...prior to joining Rainbow he was in a band called Elf (different style, but great in their own right). After his brief time in Rainbow, Dio went on to have a legendary stint with the band Black Sabbath, as well as a very successful solo career with his band Dio.
    Ritchie Blackmore is easily one of my all-time favorite guitarists, and a true legend. His previous band was Deep Purple, which he left to form Rainbow...he's currently playing medieval folk music with the band Blackmore's Night.
    Cozy Powell (RIP) was one of the true journeyman drummers in metal...he literally played with seemingly everyone.
    My two recommendations for future Rainbow reactions are the live recording of the song "Mistreated" and the song "Catch the Rainbow" (a ballad, and my favorite Rainbow song of all), preferably live as well.
    God bless!!

      What do you mean, two? Make that five. (That's Ritchie, with a t, by the way). Cozy Powell - arguably THE definitive heavy metal drummer of all time, who everybody who is anybody played with at some point. Jimmy Bain - bass titan who went on to co-create the most classic Dio albums by Ronnie's side. Tony Carey - keyboard wizard who since decades enjoy great success as a solo artist, especially in his current home country Germany. In short, this is a super lineup from beginning to end. You guitarists really need to grasp that the world, or any given band, doesn't revolve all around you ...

The whole show is incredible, so if you like these then check out the other songs from this concert "16th Century Greensleeves, Kill the King, Long Live Rock n Roll, Still I'm Sad, Man on the Silver Mountain, and Do you Close Your Eyes."

    You have stumbled on to one of the greatest songs on rock history, sung by what many consider to be the greatest voice in rock/metal history. Ronnie James Dio was so incredible. You should check out Gates Of Babylon by Rainbow, or some of his Black Sabbath tunes Heaven and Hell, Sign of the Southern Cross, and Children of the Sea. Then he has a whole catalog of his own band DIO to choose from. I recommend Don’t Talk To Strangers and Last In Line.

    When I was 4 years old, I loved watching the animated video of "Love is all" by Roger Glover & guests. I remember clearly that the singer's voice really stood out for me; I used to call him "the singing frog". Then as a teenager, I discovered Dio's album "Holy Diver". I loved it, and I found out about his previous albums with Black Sabbath and Rainbow. And to my surprise, Dio also was the voice behind the singing frog! The guy was a legend with a singing career spanning 5 decades. And were he still alive today, he would undoubtedly have added a bunch of years to it.

The song lyrics, is Dio, a Prophet with a song about a false prophet as it reveals the tale "Time standing still, Then there's blood on the sand, Oh I see his face" I am subscrbing and the follow up song Light in the Black also incredible freedom from one's own personal enslavement. As he would write later "Life's fantasy, to be locked away and still to think you're free" This band is Ritchie Blackmore's band, I consider him the greatest rock arranger of all time and one of its greatest composers and certainly guitar players of all time.

    But I also saw Blackmore rolling his eyes, when he noticed how much the crowd adored Dio. Then I realized that Dio would not stay forever in the Band. Blackmore didn‘t tolerate other gods beside him. But it lasted longer than I thought. Fortunately !

    This is known to be one of the greatest rock classics in the history of rock. Ritchie Blackmore on guitar, Cozy Powell on drums and Ronnie James Dio on vocals are all known to be rock gods at what they do - put them all together in one band and it is dynamite. try "Mistreated" and "Catch the Rainbow" from the same concert - they are fab.

    This is one of my favorite things, RDJ, Ritchie, Rainbow, this song in particular, and the entire album, getting the recognition they so deserve. They didn't get much airplay at the time, and certainly not this song. But... imagine being in high school in 1976, _really_ stoned, and hearing this at full volume for the first time. The first time I heard it, I actually needed a bus ticket to get back to my own reality.
    Note to Sabina, the track following this one is "Light in the Black" and it continues the story from the perspective of one of the former tower slaves. Every track on the entire album is excellent. Run with the wolf and Do you close your eyes were pretty much the only songs the radio played, you had to buy the album. SO great to see a new audience experiencing this.

    First time I heard them was fairly recently. His lyrics are often very layered, as his music. And then there's the voice, he could ask mountains to move with that voice, and those would probably agree.
    Killing the dragon, Rainbow in the dark, Holy diver, all deserve at least one listen, but maybe more.

    Hi Sabina, I can't believe you have never heard the master, the best metal vocalist ever, Ronnie James Dio. This song is definitely a masterpiece, but I never heard it until much later. I first heard Dio when he was fronting Black Sabbath, where in my opinion, he had his best material. Please check out Voodoo, Children of the Sea, Falling Off The Edge Of The World, and Sign of the Southern Cross for some more supremely great music of his. He also reunited with most of the same members more recently under a new band name, Heaven 'n Hell. Check out Bible Black. I haven't been this excited for you to hear new music since you discovered Nightwish!

    I was first introduced to Rainbow - Stargazer in 1983 as a freshman in college. Like you, I was blown away. Richie Blackmore came over from Deep Purple. Cozy Powell was a highly regarded session drummer who also backed up Michael Schenker. I recommend both Deep Purple (Made in Japan) and MIchael Schenker (his first solo album was his best, before that he was with UFO and the Scorpions). I doubt I am alone here when I say I admire your curiosity and appreciation of some of the very best rock music ever created.
