The young generation rock listeners should visit these videos to learn more about real Rock music.. They should listen the Bent Out Of Shape (1983) album...
speed metal 80s track very fast and good, some lines there found later on the battle rages on album, blackers had his amazing octave sound... nobody came near to his playing in his prime, joes voice is great, Rosenthal keyboard materful played...what a great band rainbow was and still is.
One of the new "version" of "Spotlight Kid"... Blackmore has done several along the years in that kind of speed and catchy track that influenced many bands and styles of metal after them (Stratovarius to name just one).
Ritchie Blackmore is fabulous!! I loved him with Deep Purple, and songs like this are just as great! Just listen to this! Wow!! Is this Rock and Roll or WHAT? Rainbow rocks! Peace and Love! Steve
Completely agree! So frustrating because they had so much momentum going at this stage but Blackmore wanted more money and less work since Rainbow was his project and required more time and effort than just being a member of Purple. It seems he regretted that decision because he had already grown tired of being back with DP after only one album and one tour with them. By the time it came to record the second album post reunion he was far more interested & excited about mixing Rainbow's "Finyl Vinyl" album. Probably why he pushed to bring in JLT to replace Gillan when the time came.
One of the greatest, yet underrated bands from the 70,s and 80,s superb live rendition of this superb song…. Gotta love rainbow and all of the incarnations some fantastic albums and live material… this guys and galscis how we used to do it in the old days, no thumping bass and repetitive mind numbing lyrics, no gangsta rap with your pants falling down your arse pointing fake guns wearing gold teeth and talking shit
I loved Joe Lynn Turner's voice from the moment I first heard"I Surrender"! He was so gorgeous too! He's one of my all time favorites still! Give a listen to him in Deep Purple's "Masters & Slaves" album - he sounds great! Especially the songs "The Cut Runs Deep" & "Wicked Ways"!!! Releasing the boring & lethargic "King of Dreams" to radio was a mistake & killed the album's (& the band's) success.
Полностью поддерживаю тебя, мой музыкальный друг. Я был на концерте JLT и это незабываемо! Rainbow одна из лучших рок групп в истории рок музыки и востребована до сих пор, а Тернер выступает и по сей день! Тут слов нет, одни овации и BRAVO!!!❤
Totally! Radio played it too safe for this exciting song. When JLT was in Deep Purple, they only released "King of Dreams" to radio. What they should have released was "The Cut Runs Deep" & "Wicked Ways"!!! Those 2 tunes had energy & edge & could've really propelled Deep Purple back to glory! They really dropped the ball there! The boring "King of Dreams" unfortunately banished this incarnation of Deep Purple into Rock 'n Roll obscurity.
Richie made a big mistake when he disbanded rainbow form the short lived deep purple gig. According to JLT they were going to do one more album then have a break anyway, the way the album's were progressing it would have been a barnstormer By the way I'm not a hater I've been a fan of Richie, deep purple and rainbow since I was an egg
Well, the opening riffs are essentially the same. Fire Dance was faster tempo and standard tuning. Battle Rages On was much slower and used dropped D tuning on the E/6th string. That's really the ONLY similarities. The overall song (the verses, solo, lyrics) are COMPLETELY different. I like both songs.
@@elenka.svaliva2 That's what I already said! The ONLY difference is on Battle Rages On, Blackmore tunes his 6th string down to D. ONLY the 6th/E string. He doesn't tune all the strings to this method as a lot of current/modern metal bands do. Yes, it's something he typically wouldn't normally do but to make it sound heavier that's exactly what he did. How do I know? Because I play guitar and if you want to play along and sound like Blackmore you need to down tune your 6th string. Whereas on Fire Dance he uses the usual standard tuning but plays it at a much faster tempo. Hope this helped explain things.
Amado por muchos y odiado por otros pero la verdad es que el maestro Ritchie Blackmore sembro las bases del hard rock con purple , el inicio del heavy metal a lado de dio , las bases del speed metal con lynn turner y demostro q nadie es indispensable en ninguna banda ...yo creo q por eso lo odia tanto Gillian ...demostro ser un excelente descubridor de talentos sin el Dio no habria alcanzado su carrera a lado de Elf, Coverdale no le hubiese dado el plus al glam en los 80s' , Glen Hudges , Joe lyn turner y Graham bonnet asi como Doguie White y hasta el mismisimo Ronnie Romero no serian quienes son hoy . Yo no se que sera de la musica sin el maestro Ritchie Blackmore SALUDOS a todos
Great to see this excellent song from the too often neglected "Bent Out Of Shape" played live... I always wondered why Blackmore didn't included some live version of the best tracks from the 4 last years of Rainbow on "Finyl Vinyl" ! Same with the great Death Alley Driver....
You never hear this Rainbow song played much! “Fire Dance” really rocks & JLT does a great job singing it! He looks good doing it, too! What a Sexy little Fox he is!
Right after that 84 Tour Ritchie disbanded Rainbow and joined reunited Purple.. Pity for great project named Rainbow, but in name of Rock n Roll and bigger money that were looming
But Ritchie would reestablish Rainbow in 1994 and could have continued much longer than three years. He wanted to try out renaissance music and bogged down there for twenty years
This is the gig where the octavia was left switched on during the whole gig - Blackmore is my guitar god but his guitar sound he is sht here unfortunately. It ruined what would have been a great recording.
