This Rainbow Box Set is something I first looked back in my Google Plus Days on another channel. I felt it was worth re-visiting for music fans who missed it at the time. This was a great value set back in 2014 and you could pick it up back then for about £15.00.
Rainbow was the project that saw guitar legend Ritchie Blackmore move on from Deep Purple. Originally formed as a one off solo project to record the Quatermass song Black Sheep Of The Family, Rainbow went on to release seven studio albums on Polydor (initially Oyster) in their original existence. Between the breakup of Deep Purple in the mid 70s and their reformation in in 1984, Ritchie took Rainbow into the charts, around the world, through a number of hard rock angles; from the mystic first album and Man On The Silver Mountain to the majestic Rainbow Rising and the epic Stargazer, then the rockin’ Long Live Rock’n’Roll to the more commercial power of All Night Long and the Down To Earth album, before heading American with tracks like I Surrender and Street Of Dreams.
Rainbow also totally redefined the concept of revolving-door line-ups; Ronnie James Dio, Cozy Powell, Don Airey, Roger Glover, Bobby Rondinelli and Joe Lynn Turner were just some of the few that came and went, with Blackmore’s volatile temperament never far away.
