With the anniversary of Ronnie James Dio's passing comes closer Rosebud and I have decided to pay tribute the man with bootlegs from his various bands. Up first is an offering from his days in Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow. More specifically the Rainbow Rising line-up. Considered by many to be the definitive version of the band, which would only last to the recording sessions for the follow up album started. This 2 CD bootleg is comprised of tracks from 3 Japan shows. The concerts in Germany and Japan during the Rising Tour were recorded to make the On Stage live album. With a heavy metal sound and the improvisational skills of MK2 era Deep Purple, it's no small wonder this line-up is loved by so many.
