Rainbow

'Long Live Rock 'n' Roll'

Polydor, UK, 1978

POLD 5002

THIRD ALBUM from this wonderfully effective jard rock supergroup featruing Ritchie Blackmore on guitar, drummer Cozy Powell and vocalist Ronnie James Dio. The material is steller, ranging from volatile epic hard rock tracks such as 'Kill The King' and 'LA Connection' to more evocative songs like 'Rainbow Eyes' and the weirdly constructed but hugely compelling 'Gates Of Babylon'.

Blackmore is on fire at every turn whilst Ronnie James Dio makes full use of that distinctive roar positioning himself as one of the definitive hard rock vocalists. I bought this album when it first came out, as a devout Blackmore worshipper I couldn't have wished for a better record even following the fire and brimstone of 'Rainbow Rising'.

Pressing: Polydor, UK, 1978

Vinyl: Nice clean and shiny condition. No spindle marks. Grades as top MINT-!

Cover: No signs of use. Issued in a beautifully illustrated textured gatefold cover. Sharp corners, no dings, no bends, no ring wear, no split seams and no creases. Spine is perfectly straight, stiff and totally uncrushed. Beautiful and impossible to find like this 45 years after release. Grades as top archive MINT!
