Raid The Archives So We Can Have More From This Line-Up..........2002-12-17

As another mentioned, it would be great to have more from Rainbow, especially more of the era spanning 1980-1984. It was a bit of a catch 22 to see Ritchie Blackmore return to Deep Purple late in 1984, even though it produced the exceptional "Perfect Strangers" album. I once had "Finyl Vinyl" on cassette tape, album, and on CD, all at once! I don't really know how that happened but it is truly a great compilation. "Spotlight Kid", "I Surrender" and "Street of Dreams" are much better live than their respective studio versions. Perhaps, though, the "Japan Tour 84" CD ought to be re-released to do the Blackmore, Turner, Glover, Burgi, and Rosenthal line-up justice. What really catches the listener is just how good Chuck Burgi is on drums. A fast and furious drummer with remarkable precision.

The final release - or maybe not!.......2001-09-01

Having listened to the studio version of "Difficult To Cure" and then seeing the live version on the long-deleted "Live Between The Eyes" VHS, I was intrigued by the possibility of the version which exists on this release. It is worth the price just for that track alone. Rainbow with an orchestra.....Incredible. But while this is an exceptionally high high-point, it is not the only one. To finally hear "Since You Been Gone" live with Graham Bonnet (sadly the only live track from this short-lived incarnation of the band) was something of a revelation, although I still prefer the studio version. But this compilation covers almost every line-up of the band, presumably ignoring the line-up which recorded "Onstage", for obvious reasons (see that album and the "Live In Europe/Live In Germany" sets. The only sticking point for this was the inclusion of a couple of non-album b-sides, which had already appeared on the "Best Of Rainbow" album in the UK in the early '80s. A couple of other live tracks might have been better. How about more from that Monsters Of Rock show which produced "Since You Been Gone". If you're expecting a 2CD live album, forget it. This is a compilation, and should be treated as such. But maybe the time has come to release some of the older live material in the full glory of the concert recording format. "Live Between The Eyes" was a good show, but on CD you would certainly lose the full impact of the guitar-smashing - although it does SOUND really good!!! Come on Polygram, raid those archives!!

Rainbow game.......2000-07-22

Cool compilation! If you love Deep purple , you will like this one too.

cool one.......2000-07-21

I LOVE IT! Compilation of RAINBOW GAME! Blackmore, Powell, DIO, Lyn Turner, Bonnet have been appeared in this album. A must for Heavy fans!

Amazing collection........2000-04-19

Released in 1986,two years after Ritchie folded Rainbow,this is a compilation worthy of this legendary band,featuring different versions of Rainbow material and concentrating on the Turner era because,let's face it,Rainbow did not end with Ronnie's departure in 1978.

"Final Nail In The Coffin" is more like it!.......2005-01-11

First, let me get this said: I love Rainbow. I found out about Deep Purple because I was a Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow fan first. I still think Rising, Long Live Rock n Roll and most of Down To Earth are great records. I only recently began to appreciate On Stage (which is excellent!) and the first album with Man On the Silver Mountain. I always liked things like "Jealous Lover" and "Stone Cold" with Joe Lynn Turner. But this record is awful, horrible, and an embarrassment. It doesn't do the band justice, and if it DOES, then it's no wonder Ritchie pulled the plug on it. If this was the only post-Purple Blackmore ever heard, I'd think he was the weakest member of Deep Purple and you would be hard pressed to prove otherwise. Joe Lynn Turner sounds ridiculous, even by 80s standards, and Graham Bonnet is no better. (I saw Bonnet on the Down To Earth tour, and he was a major disappointment to the fans and to Ritchie on that show.) Too bad...let sleeping dogs lie if this is the best the "archives" have to show us; let us remember these line-ups for their great records instead of these lame live performances. Call it: FINAL NAIL IN THE COFFIN.

Rainbow's Farewell.......2002-01-21

This is a relatively strong live effort from Ritchie Blackmore and company. The 80's saw Rainbow attempting to cross over a little and garner a more wider array of fans. They may have succeeded. Blackmore found that singer Joe lynn Turner had not only the vocal appeal for the 80's pop rock scene, but also the required poofed hair as well. Consequently, many individuals who had never heard of Rainbow before, swore they were listening to a Foreigner album when introduced to Rainbow's 80's efforts.
Having said that, there still is a lot of good old fashioned Rainbow traits here. But the instrumental on track eight "Difficult To Cure" is perhaps the best song on this disc. "Difficult" is nothing more than Rainbow showing their true talent with the ability to merge melodic metal with a symphony orchestra (Japanese, probably Tokyo). Johann Sebastian Bach's "Song of Joy" is delicately fused and blended well here. Blackmore starts off with a typical solo, then the orchestra kicks in....what a sound! A truly magnificent performance!
There is a quick version of "Since You Been Gone", with Graham Bonnet on vocals,(Castle Donnington Rock Festival-England, one of the few times Rainbow played outdoors and actually headlined to boot) and a few recordings of Ronnie James Dio singing also. Dio attempts to rouse a rather anemic Atlanta audience on a couple of cuts.
The CD opens with the typical 80's flair. "Spotlight Kid", "I Surrender", and "Can't Happen Here are okay, but Turner almost ruins "Power", though he somewhat redeems himself with a strong performance on "Stone Cold." The CD ends with another instrumental "Weiss Heim". No vocals on this one, with Ritchie and Keyboardist Don Airey shining brightly on this particular cut.
This is a pretty darn good recording of Rainbow performing live over the years, with shows recorded literally from around the world. Once again Ritchie Blackmore's love of classical music is portrayed in some of his songs. But Rainbow's trademark has always been their ability to shamelessly introduce classical music to metal, and this is no exception.

The Dio songs rock the rest is so-so.......1998-08-26

Spotlight kid is a terrific song and so are a handfull of other songs on this disc. But the two songs recorded with Ronnie James Dio are the only two songs worth listening to.
