 :: Biography
 :: Albums





Right after the split-up of Elf, four members of Elf and
ex-Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore formed band
called Rainbow. The name supposedly came from the Rainbow
bar located in Los Angeles, where Elf and Ritchie Blackmore
used to spend their free time.

This band is also known as Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, as
it appears under that name on their first album, but that
name was used only to get people to notice the band.
Generally, everyone except Blackmore himself felt bad about
the name, so on the later albums the band was called simply
Rainbow. The band moved from the East Coast of USA to
California, USA.

The band went to the Musicland Studios, in Munich, Germany
on February 20th and finished the album recording on March
14th. The album was produced More...

    Review about Rainbow

    LoTR | Reviewer: stahr
        ------ About the song STARGAZER performed by Rainbow

    My guess is this is a song inspired by the Lord of the Rings; Gandalf's imprisonment at the top of Saruman's tower, his fall onto an Eagle's back and/or in Moria with the balrog, his return from Moria as a white wizard; and how he inspired the heros to fight the enemies, Saruman (lesser enemy) and Sauron (greater enemy)


    Awesome Song! But.... | Reviewer: Black_Jack
        ------ About the song Since You've Been Gone performed by Rainbow

    This is one of the greatest songs of the seventies. A true gem in a great rock era. But, what's with your review Gaylord? Is that just to advertise your lifestyle choice? Or were saying that the song was gay? Because it seems a little out of place.


    Stargazer lyrics interpretation | Reviewer: morningstar
        ------ About the song STARGAZER performed by Rainbow

    A song about the Antichrist? I've heard some people interpret it as a song about Hitler, and the following song "A Light in the Back" as a song about Germans going home after the war. "Did he really let us go...."


    yes | Reviewer: Cotts
        ------ About the song STARGAZER performed by Rainbow

    Yes I think so. Thanks for giving the feedback. There is a lot written about this song but nothing about the lyric content. Maybe it is Dio's voice but the song has had me entranced ever since i heard it.


    what i think | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song STARGAZER performed by Rainbow

    of course it is.the wizard wanted to reach the sky.he's kinda crazy and powerful tyrant obsessed by this idea.they are all his slaves and awe him and build a tower for him.he was kinda tyranical father for them- like in some religions (and fashism too)that's what i understand.i think that the slaves kinda take it to heart too - that "where is your star" sounds quite sympathetic.overmore i always thought- "i believe i believe" what does he believe in?!i think they felt as a part of a whole-and together they will do the greatest deed,and they took all these pains for the cause-something like the tower of babel(and it ends much the same way),and when the wizard falled down it "gave them back their will"and they had to face the world ,realized they wasted their time and had to make their way to home.but i think that the song is basically about the wizard and his crazy dream and his star.
    Cuz we all have stars and bild our castles in the sky.See - what a deep meaning.And it is a nice tale too.And generally nice song.And nice all.Right?Did i get it?


    why | Reviewer: Cotts
        ------ About the song STARGAZER performed by Rainbow

    I have not heard any discussion on these lyrics.
    I love the song but the lyrics sound like its about cult ledership, "He gave me back our will" and etc. Does anybody else share these thoughts ?


    Gates Of Babylon. | Reviewer: Grrace
        ------ About the song GATES OF BABYLON performed by Rainbow

    despite ritchie | Reviewer: matt
        ------ About the song I Surrender performed by Rainbow

    when the drums first kick in: what a cool beat.
    even the stupid-high singing manages to avoid the "styx" effect. i'm not a fan of blackmore but that doesn't stop them having some cool songs. i agree: 9/10


    Great song | Reviewer: Ed Hunter
        ------ About the song Can't Let You Go performed by Rainbow

    I think that this is one of the best love songs that I've ever listened


    Badass Song | Reviewer: Boyd
        ------ About the song Kill the King performed by Rainbow

    Totally kickass song. The chess inspired lyrics were pretty fun. The other guy who posted seems like a little bit of a fanboy.


    gay! | Reviewer: gaylord
        ------ About the song Since You've Been Gone performed by Rainbow

    soooo fucking great!!!!I think that and I'm gay


    I agree totally | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Can't Happen Here performed by Rainbow

    I have always loved Rainbow's music. It has meaningful soical and political commentary. There will always be people telling us about the future, we just don't seem to hear them.


    Starting To Make Sense, Isn't It?... | Reviewer: Mark
        ------ About the song Can't Happen Here performed by Rainbow

    Have always loved this tune from the beginning as well as the band. Even from Rainbows start, I felt through their music that there was something to pay attention to. Look and listen to the media news from every media available today and what do you see/hear? Just a matter of time, my friends. Just a matter of time.


    Rainbow | Reviewer: Scot mofuckin Kuyten
        ------ About the song Kill the King performed by Rainbow

    Arguably the greatest band ever (next to Deep Purple), jesus christ these guys are fucking AMAZING. Kill the King gets me so fuckin pumped when I listen to it its not even funny. I sit here playing my bass bustin out the Blackmore riffs (Bob Daisley was a solid bassist, but i'm not solid, i'm awesome so I play the Blackmore riffs). Anyone who says Ritchie Blackmore isn't the greatest guitarist of all time is an asshole who doesn't know SHIT. Even today in his renissaince band Blackmore's Night he could fuckin PWN anyone. Page, Hendrix, Clapton, Beck, Malmsteen, Vai, Satriani, Moore, Gilbert, Iommi, Van Gaylen, Becker, NONE OF THEM CAN TOUCH HIM. The only one even remotely close is Dixie Dregs guitarist Steve Morse and none of the assholes I listed before can touch him either. There is no such thing as a bad Rainbow song, or a bad Rainbow lineup. Ritchie, Dio, Daisley, Powell and I think Airey was the best lineup, but I'm not saying the shit they did with Joe Lynn Turner and Graham Bonnett wasn't good because it rocked. Fuck you asshole sluts if you hate Rainbow or Blackmore, your a bunch of cocksucking fags.
