Rainbow!

How bloody good are they! I have just began to rediscover them after a long absence, and can't believe how good they are.
Last week, I downloaded a video of them Live in Munich in 1977 - and it is just brilliant. They are all young(er), Ronnie's voice live is magnificent, and Ritchie is brilliant without being big-headed and hogging the limelight.
On the back of this, I have just pulled out the entire Rainbow discography - and realised how brilliant they are. I had forgotten just what magnificent albums Rising, Long Live Rock 'n' Roll, Down To Earth and Difficult To Cure are.
These guys should have such a higher profile in the annals of Heavy Metal history.
