Ritchie Blackmore's RAINBOW - Gates of Babylon Promo clip 

For me, one of the greatest Rainbow's song... and Ritchie's solo. Masterpiece!

Amazing!!! Gave me chills!! Cozy Powell on drums. The Master Ritchie Blackmore! King Ronnie James Dio!! SUPERGROUP!!!

One of the greatest Rock N΄Roll songs and one of the best Rainbow songs of all time.LONG LIVE RONNIE JAMES DIO THE LEGEND!

AMAZING! Timeless classic. People will be enjoying this hundreds of years from now.

One of my favorites. One of many masterpieces that they didn't play live. The last lineup with Dio before the breakup. Rainbow was never the same after this.

Thee! most underrated song in the history of Rock’n’Roll a masterpiece!

That guitar solo is so beautifully inspired and ethereal….!😀

Great song by a great band and one of the 3 defining tracks of that era of Rainbow including Man on the Silver Mountain and Stargazer.

The pinnacle of Rock and Roll. Period.

Fantastic! I hadn't seen this particular rendition of the 'Gates' promo before...looks amazing! Can never have enough Blackmore/Dio Rainbow...Thanks!

IMHO, this is THE absolute best, most talented lineup ever in Rock music.

Blackmore put together an extremely talented band in Rainbow. Great sound. His playing style went so perfectly with the haunting vocals of Gillan and Dio. Cozy Powell and Dave Stone are fantastic also. My Fantastic Four for sure.

In my opinion its the best track of this group, wich, sadly, war torn appart some years later. The combination of Dio ans Blackmore is transcendant in beauty.

Ritchie un Dio della chitarra. Genio.immenso ed assoluto.

Amazing work by masters of rock.

Long Live Rock & Roll was the first Rainbow album I bought, and it paralyzed me in such a great way. This track, LA connection, The Shed, etc… soooo amazing!

Amazing solo Guitar

Would love to see this amazing group live one more time

That solo is absolutely ridiculous. I'm obsessed with it.

RIP to DIO ....unforgettable show in my lost now hometown

Awesomeness

Love, legend singer, legend group 🍀🙏❤️🎶🎼🎵👌🎸✌️🎤🎹🥁🍀

Third album I bought in my life in the 70s. Still my favourite guitar solo.

Rainbow's tour de force. Ominous, haunting, beautiful. Composed by Blackmore and David Stone, though David is not listed in the credits, but his keyboards are as brilliant as Blackmore's guitar on this song.

Ritchies solo is a masterpiece

Awesome! I love this song!

Wish those old tapes could be somehow salvaged to look a bit better. That aside, if one closes their eyes and just listens... it's perfection!

Great track, absolutely Fabulous

PEOPLE, that is one of the best guitar solos ever.

This is fucking amazing. Man oh man, how did i miss out on this in my past?? I mean, i knew of the band, and i knew Ronnie was in it. But to realize how huge and epic the band is. Wow! And no one here will know what I'm talking about...but the keyboardist looks like Ola Englund.

It doesn’t get much better than this! How was this not the biggest album of 1978??

ufffffff gran epoca gran clasico ,gracias Ritchie y gracias por esas epocas ,un gigante Dio y toda la banda!!!!!

the best song from Rainbow! why today nobody compose songs like this??

Wow this is so so cool Energy and zeal Beautiful Rock with an Amazon group of Gods

One of their best.

These albums with Ronnie were Ritchie's finest hour -- I think at least. So many great tunes that have that timeless quality (trendy stuff sounds dated when the fashion passes). P.S. Ritchie's solo tones. They are all good, but the one I would like to be able to get myself is actually the stuff on Perfect Strangers. All that liquid sustain and space that makes even a basic lick sound awesome when bending and sustaining notes etc. I guess amp volume and boosting the amps are the key ingredients, but beyond that I do not have a clue how he did it, e.g., the solos in Knocking On Your Back Door, or Wasted Sunsets etc (there's some phaser or something going on too).

Pretty wild, with that driving groove.

Best hard rock, metal band

Maravilloso.

It’s a master class amazing

Blackmore the sorcerer, Dio the wizard

Amazing

I can take you anywhere...and did. Rock In Peace Ronnie James Dio.

i grew up with yngwie i really appreciate uli roth, blackmore and schenker much more now

My best Deep Purple eternal album 💿 which contains the most and best classic group: Blackmore, Gillan, Glover, Lord and Ian paice is of course “ Made in Japan 🇯🇵 “ recorded in 1972 in Tokyo and Osaka with the most known & amazing songs played till this very day .

This will never be duplicated in any fashion .

Deep Purple was great! But Rainbow with Dio was the best!

Obviously the best Rainbow album

David Stone 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹

Великих барабанщиков много, но величайший это Cozy

👍🇧🇷✌️☕️🌞☮️ Very very nice!!!

🤘🏻I love this song

Even though the clips are arranged in random order, and the parts that show Ritchie playing, aren't at the correct time, it's like MTV. A promo video. Still cool.

Absolutely

The best song they ever did. David Stone on the intro.

1:54 🖤 Exactly what you came here for!

Прекрасная композиция ,а исполнение и запись звука ,выше всех похвал! Long Live Rock'n"Roll 1977

Rainbow es sinónimo de grandesa musical.

Incrivel! Um fã do brasil ❤

What a voice,goddamn!

💜💯

Não sei se vcs perceberam mas falta um trecho inteiro da primeira parte da música. Ficou encurtada haha. Isso foi proposital né Ritchie?? kk

ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНЫЙ РИЧИ И ДИО ВЕЛИКИЙ ГОЛОС ВСЕЛЕННОЙ!!!

Unbelievable they never 👎 included this masterpiece on a live album 💿

🤘👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹🤘 zajebisty perfect gigantyczny mega super

Best composition of rainbow🌈 the gates of the Babylon

Как всегда на высоте .

Presta atenção na banda estão hipnotizados com o vocal do Dio

Ronie James Dio's 'don't talk to strangers'.

Ritchie Blackmore WAS The best guitarist of the big 3 of the 70s.

Blackmore's best guitar solo ever

Tatsächlich ist es so dass sagen kann solche herausragenden Eigenschaften findest Du heute kaum noch 😂

⚡️killah⚡️

Padre d l guitar😊😊😊😊😊😊

Why is the bass rig behind Blackmore and the Marshalls behind Daisley? They did a couple of videos with this set up, is it a little inside joke because they‘re not playing live?

How do they get that echo effect that starts at 3:45 I've always wondered about how groups got that effect

My favourite Rainbow Song...Pity they never played it Live...

Is the best rainbow 🌈 song 🎶 and unbelievable was not included in any live album of the band

Colin "Cozy Powell" Trevor Flooks 😢 Ronald James Padavona 😢 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈

Clasicc Heavy Metal Rainbow RONNIE JAMES DIO The Best 🔥

They were going to reunite around '97 '98 but cozy died and they cancelled it

- a time will come when every having to be lifted up and so as in Great But also Beware as in that time when so to be (The Gates of Babylon) has also been then as for in doing

Looks like Ronnie James Dio's Rainbow to me.

The parents sent him to learn clasical guitar but he end up successful and famous in rock.

Temple of the king live🤗

Only DIO.

この時期のレインボーが一番良かったです😂

And who played keyboards in this song?

この曲が入り口でした(*´∀｀*)♬

Ritchie Blackmore could be more popular if he has much more friendly attitude..

Hey let's put in some camels during Ritchies solo....not that it matters, he's miming anyway.

A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem. A psalm of Solomon. Psalm 127 - All Is In Vain Without God . The truest word spoken by an Arab (pre-Islamic) in poetry is this verse of Labid: "Behold! apart from Allaah everything is vain." ''Everything besides Allah is Baatil''. ''The Vainness of All Things Except Allah''

класс

アメリカ人の方で、この音楽の良さが解る方はおられますか❓感想を御聞きしたいです❓

Que música foda!

Ritchie already wearing a wig in 1978

Mike Stone’s finest hour…what happened to him?!

This is the real Rainbow. Not that since you've been gone nonsense.
