Rainbow's original live album, "On Stage", was released in 1977, drawing from recordings made on the same tour as this album.
A classic song from the first Rainbow album.
Every album introduced at least one, if not more, new members as they either quit or were fired, more often the latter.

 Amazon.com: Music: Rainbow Rising/Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED]
Rainbow followed up this monster with "On Stage" then "Long Live Rock n'Roll" (an album which is almost as breathtaking) which proved to be Dio's curtain call with the band.
Rainbows commercial song of the album that was performed throughout the tour as an encore.
I rate this album 10/10 and this is the only Rainbow MK II studio album.

 Rainbow: Catch the Rainbow: The Anthology - PopMatters Music Review
The 13-minute blues opus "Mistreated", from the 1977 live album Rainbow on Stage, showcases the band at their absolute peak.
Rainbow Rising might be the band's one classic album, but when it comes to all the other music they made in their 10-year existence, this collection is all you need.
Catch the Rainbow gives curious listeners a very detailed look at the up-and-down life of the band, and despite Rainbow's woeful '80s output, the entire collection is still worthwhile, based on the first CD alone.

 Rainbow - biography
Rainbow released two more albums -- Live on Stage (1977) and Long Live Rock and Roll (1978) -- before relocating to America in 1978.
The band's 1975 debut album, Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, was a continuation of the heavy rock that was Deep Purple and Elf's stock-in-trade.
Blackmore changed the lineup of Rainbow for their second album, Rainbow Rising (1976), replacing Gruber with Jimmy Bain, Soule with Tony Carey, and Driscoll with Cozy Powell.

 Rainbow
As for 'Kill The King', that one was already previously introduced in Rainbow's stage performances of 1977, and Blackmore and Dio didn't disappoint the fans with the marvelous studio version: speed-metal at its most aggressive and technically perfect.
I originally thought of giving the album the same rating as Down To Earth, but that would have placed the album on the same level with Foreigner's best, and this is still marginally better.
So all in all, the album is essentially saved by the fact that on a bunch of remaining tunes, Blackmore does squeeze out a bunch of interesting bluesy riffs.

 Caroliner - Free Music Downloads, Videos, CDs, MP3s, Bio, Merchandise and Links
Members did hide behind an ever-shifting array of ridiculous stage names, and the band's name changed from album to album -- the first two words were always Caroliner Rainbow, followed by an inscrutable phrase from one of the album's lyrics or titles (Caroliner was the official fallback name, however).
Part of a long line of avant-garde weirdoes from the Bay Area, Caroliner -- aka Caroliner Rainbow -- often described itself as �industrial bluegrass," which was likely the closest anyone ever came to pegging their uncategorizable sound.
Caroliner was founded in San Francisco in 1983 by a lead singer commonly known only as Grux (though he, too, switched aliases at will).

 Rainbow Album Reviews
Also, Rainbow has another live album called On Stage (which was actually released in 1977), and unless you're a diehard Rainbow fan you probably only need one such live statement, so I decided to review only this one, which contains more material and is generally considered slightly superior.
By comparison, Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow seems a tad tentative, perhaps in part because the overall talent level in the band wasn't nearly as high, but also because it took an album for Blackmore and Dio to figure out exactly what they wanted their band to be.
After Richie Blackmore’s Rainbow, Blackmore retooled the band (something he did regularly, as he was a notoriously difficult sort who seemed to have trouble getting along with anybody for an extended period of time) for this, the band’s second and best album.

Following its release, the band embarked upon a successful world tour, culminating in a sold out European jaunt which spawned a best-selling live album entitled On Stage, released in 1977.
Rainbow quickly developed into one of the '70s most successful heavy metal bands behind charismatic front man Ronnie James Dio.
Typically, the guitarist refused to go out quietly, and Rainbow were backed by a full symphony orchestra for their final March 1984 performance in Japan.

 Ozzy Osbourne Album Reviews
But back to this album, which also featured a couple of ex-Rainbow alumni in bassist Bob Daisley (who insists he wrote the lyrics for the first five Ozzy albums and was certainly a key collaborator along with Rhoads in any event) and keyboardist Don Airey, plus drummer Lee Kerslake.
The album also suffers from overly long songs and a sterile sound, but again, most of the songs are good, and quite frankly Ozzmosis is about as satisfactory as I expected at this stage of his long career.
After another unnecessary live album (the 2-cd Live And Loud) and some aborted writing sessions with guitarist Stevie Vai, Ozzy brought back Wilde and collaborated with professional songwriters such as Jim Vallance (a la Aerosmith) on Ozzmosis, a consistently solid album with few standout songs.

His debut album was pretty good; but most of the songs on the 1977 'On Stage' Live Rec.
The album opens with an admittedly long keyboard intro, but cranks into a great groove with "Tarot Woman", with all the grace of the Horsemen Of Apocalypse.
I like Rising and it has some kool tunes I just don't think it is a strong "Long Live Rock 'n' Roll" which I think is a better album through and through.

Beck and his band obliged by walking back out on stage and performing an audience favorite, "Devil’s Haircut." The theatre lit up again with numerous psychedelic, rainbow colored flashing lights, and the concert ended on an energetic and joyous note.
At 10:30 p.m., the concert ended, but not before Beck had a chance to perform his techno-friendly "Two Turn Tables and a Microphone." The song had everyone dancing in place again, and once the band left the stage the entire theatre was filled with individuals yelling and clapping their hands loudly for an encore.
He played another song from his " Mutations " album solo, and the audience joined in singing along and clapping their hands.

 THEMISATHENA.INFO: Eric Clapton
Although absence from the stage and drug abuse had taken their toll, when listening to the recording of what has come to be known as Eric Clapton's "Rainbow Concert" it becomes clear just how much these two live appearances helped to reenergize him.
Hence, songs such as the instrumental title track (which is a bossa nova because, Clapton says, he just loves Brazilian music), the closing and likewise instrumental "Son & Sylvia," "Believe in Life" and, of course, "Find Myself," written early on but finding its true purpose only when the album took its final direction.
But the album wouldn't be named for Eric Clapton's uncle (and dedicated to him and his wife Sylvia) if it wasn't, in large parts, also about the singer-guitarist's re-evaluation of the things that influenced him in his youth.

 WHO Magazine: The Sopranos - Apr. 12, 2004
Featuring their duets as well as Katie’s take on jazz classics (she also sings in jazz trio Elixir) and Maggie performing arias, the album came about after they shared the stage at 2001’s annual Women in Voice concert.
Sitting wide-eyed in the first row, 5-year-old Katie Noonan was like any other mesmerised music lover basking in the soaring soprano of her opera-singer mother, Maggie, as she played a Goddess of the Rainbow in 1982’s Royal Command Performance of The Tempest.
George, the band they started in 1996 as "a loose jam," says Katie, won raves in 2002 with the double-platinum-selling debut album, Polyserena, showcasing Noonan’s haunting vocals (their follow-up album, Unity, was released in February).

David Bowie, rock's Dada Garbo, fresh from the breakthrough success of his Hunky Dory album, had booked his notorious new stage pageant for two shows-August 19, 20, 1972-at London's Rainbow Theater.
MUSICIAN: You were born in 1947, in a post-world war era, when there was a sense that civilization was going to have to find a new order Rock 'n' roll was part of a trial-and-error search in which a young generation believed it could make a new way.
MUSICIAN: Even when you're dealt in social commentary, as with "Bombers" on the Ryko Hunky Dory reissue, the view is similar - to "Starman "or "Space Oddity," where you took a topical social dilemma and personalized it.
