Long Live Ritchie Blackmore...!!!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I wish he'd get back to where he belongs,and piss that Steve Morse off,cant play for nuts,same old same old crap... Don Airey is a good replacement for Jon Lord though vik...yes sir ree bob,them was good times to grow up in <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Couldn't agree more...Morse doesn't suit the band (but still a competant player)but alas Ritchie is too busy playing medievil songs in medievil castles to even contemplate a reunion gig with the boys. Don Airey is an awesome musician...loved his work with Rainbow....now its time to dig out one of my LP's and reminisce. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> May I suggest you get out Rainbow on stage and then go for side three,Mistreated,crank her up full... vik...13 minutes of bliss...and Ronnie didnt do too bad a job <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ronnie did a great job on that classic Purple song...that's one of my all time favourite albums and "Catch the Rainbow" still gives me goose bumps esp Ritchie's solo.
