I think the last Rainbow album was the best since Rising, the only one I really just don't like much is Down to Earth. Dave S

>>> Regarding Rainbow's album. I've just set a little experiment of my own: played the two songs in question to my wife having told her she was to chose which one is more boring and why. She immediately pointed on the Light In The Black, explaining that from the very start it sounds rather monotonous and nothing really happens while there are certain hooks and changes in the Starstruck. However, we both agreed that Run With The Wolf is even better due to certain contrasts and even more hooks. :)

Run with the Wolf is a classic, I wish they played this one live, Starstruck should have been a hit, great feel and overall cool track. Do you close your eyes is just bad. DS

>>>>> Hello David and all,
>>>>> I can easily explain why I have "chosen" Light in the Black: this one seems to be not a very inventive riff that Ritchie statred playing, and drew the rest of the band in. Pretty much the same tempo and harmony throughout the whole song which lasts way too long for such a plain idea and average musicianship. In other words, it is a jam without the ingredients that made Lazy or Child In Time, for instance, great tracks. But I know how much tastes do differ, so there's no point in arguing really. The antipodes to me here are Run With The Wolf and Starstruck - plenty of emotions and no timewasting.

From the very beginning it grabs you and takes you on a ride through every high-powered emotion that your body can stand !!!!!!
