Sorry mate but i think your making way too much of this.This is not and never was intended to be a proper Rainbow project, its simply Ritchie going out with a group of hired hands and playing some of the songs that made him famous to make some pension money.The Rainbow name is there for marketing and selling tickets ,NONE of the current band will ever be rated alongside the likes of Dio and Powell etc thats just daft to think like that .

JLT talks even more nonsense than Gillan, and that's quite a challenge. I'd be rather interested about what Russ Ballard has to say about the new I Surrender recording - it was him who wrote the song. The story of this song began before JLT sang it.

And for all the computer haters, please take a close listen to The Unwritten Law.



JLT is a vile, repugnant creature, who has whined and whined for years now about how great he is and great his "Rainbow Reunion" will be and how "he's made it happen". The guy is so full of sh1t it's beyond unreal. No wonder Blackmore didn't want to bother with him. Blackmore has taken all these complete unknowns years and given them a break which has brought many of them fame and fortune. in JLT's case he's only whining because he's missed out on a load of money, that's all it's about for him. He's tried every angle to get more out of "his Rainbow" including that utter pile of sh1te that was "Over the Rainbow". Again..... no wonder Blackmore, said no thanks to working with that weasel again.

I just read some of the Youtube comments on I surrender.

Joe Lynn Turners wife called Maya Kozyravavor is commenting there very diligent (wouldn't even be surprised if it's JLT himself being a sour grape) that Ronnie Romero just can't sing this song as good as JLT. They are acting very childish. She's also saying that RB should have done a proper reunion with all the old guys. Yes, Ms. Kozyravavor - you might think that would have been the right thing to do - lots of money involved for you and your husband, ha? You didn't get it. emoticon After reading such nasty things from you, I'm quite happy you didn't!

Also lots of other people from Ritchie's past such as Rob Fodders current young wife (Becky is her name) is commenting there.

They are all acting like sour grapes. Can understand that RB doesn't wanna be involved with any of those people anymore. I'm shocked by their angry attitude. They seem to have no happiness in life and they seem to care more about the music than Ritchie himself, which is quite funny.

I would like to tell them: Let Ritchie do his thing and you do your thing. You're not on his payroll anymore.

And by the way. I Surrender is not as bad as many people say it is. Partly no real instruments, but what's the problem. I personally have no problem with that. I think that Ronnie sings really nice on it and Ritchie's playing is fantastic. Really love his soloing.

These people are acting like Ritchie murdered someone. Hey, he just released a new track. You can like it or not. But these people's behaviour is just totally out of place. They must be so bitter. Lost any respect for all of them. Not because they an opinion, but because of the way they're acting. They're acting like little children.



Most of these guy who are moaning and dissing Blackmore now would be absolutely nowhere if they hadn't had a leg up from Blackmore. Sure he hired them coz they were good and they were cheap and when they got too big for their boots he correctly dumped them, but for all the talent they may have actually had ....... without Blackmore nobody but nobody would've heard of them ever.

Same with Candice, without Blackmore nobody but nobody would give her the time of day as a singer. Listen to the early BN 1998/99 etc she was utterly appalling as a singer, couldn't hold a tune and sounded awful, so shed never have got anywhere.

So whatever you think of Blackmore he's launched more rock careers than most.

His latest outings haven't been great and maybe arguably a mistake given the usual quality of his output, but he does what he does and at his age cares even less for what anyone thinks. Quite right too.

JLT is just jealous because now he plays in stupid little bars, to audiences of only a few 50's maybe 100's, whereas Blackmore once again plays to 10000's and JLT's ego can't handle that at all. JLT is a loathsome creature!

Perhaps he will be called "short-time singer of Rainbow". Who knows. But he will carry on with his own career anyway. Rainbow fans perhaps will remember him in a similar way DP fans remember Joe Satriani: as someone who was with the band for a short time without having to contribute to their creative work.

So now where's the problem?

Re:


Come on guys, don't you think it's a total waste of time reading people's comments on YT?

And by the way, "I Surrender" was originally intended for another band, can't recall the name now, but it was a new band, something like Magnum. They already had Ballard's permission to record the son but then the Man in Black stepped in and - in a way - stole the song, because he was more famous.

Also, I'll never understand this man's thinking. He chose Romero because he thought his vice would appeal better to European audiences who prefer Dio and then, suddenly, out of the blue, he records a JLT tune with new Singer... ???!!??? I mean, hey, if Europeans prefer Dio, why not re-record a Dio-era song? Where's the logic?

The logic is that RB recently discovered that Rainbow with Dio sounds more like Iron Maiden. From Dio era he probably accepts first album and rainbow eyes. That's why he records the song he likes... Check the songs he covered in this century than it is quite obvious...

That's very true. He always had a soft spot for JLT-era Rainbow and I think he preffered it to the Dio-era. I also think he preffered Joe more than Ronnie on a personal level.

Then.... I´d call it like small sort of "fraud" (too strong word for it, but cant find better one in English as it´s not my native language) against people who expect he would take it SERIOUSLY and expect pro-work. emoticon Really similar scenario to DP 1980. BTW check wiki * - new "Rainbow" are in the same article as Dio´s or Powell´s lineups of Rainbow. I mean - why to even do something when you DONT think that seriously and you DONT even bother to work like pro-guy in the business. Maybe they should release adverts with statement like "we are actually Rainbow who are not taking this thing seriously, so dont take it serious - sorry for ticket prices which pretends we are going to be "pros" like our predecessors in bands with the same name". emoticon It´s simply fake marketing fraud abusing famous name.

* "Rainbow (also known as Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow or Blackmore's Rainbow) are a British rock band led by guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, active from 1975 to 1984 and 1993 to 1997, and again since 2015." emoticon
