It is a shame if Rainbow fans overlook this gem that was released in 1995. It was the last album Ritchie Blackmore made under the Rainbow moniker before forming Blackmores Night and opting for another musical style altogether. The lead singer Dougie White has a fine voice easily matching his predecessors and Blackmores guitar is excellent throughout. Wolf to the moon and Cold hearted woman are true Rainbow rock tracks, Hunting humans follows and is a haunting track that was released as a single. Stand and fight is the only track that I would call mediocre due to the excellence of the rest of the album. I strongly urge all fans of Blackmore to discover this album and listen without prejudice. Having followed the man for the last thirty odd years I think I have enough 'experience' behind me to make such a statement.

being a big fan of dio era rainbow,read some reviews of this album and took a chance on it,glad i did,it is superb,if like me your a dio fan then you will love this album,forget since "you've been gone" "i surrender" etc,this is the buisiness,"hall of the mountain king" and the reworking of "still i'm sad" are the gems,excellent.

When I first heard this album, I really liked it. It was unfortunate that "Emotional Crime" was left off from the UK release. The feel of the song sounds like Free and is very blues oriented. The harmonies at the end are great. It is a very good song and would have enhanced the album even further.
Nonetheless the existing album songs "Ariel" and "Black Masquerade" are tremendous and the latter has a magnificent middle section. They really propel the album and it is comparable to any of the earlier work of Rainbow.
Blackmore is an incredible player and his work now with Blackmore's Night contains astounding musicianship.

Blackmore on form but out of time

Pleasantly surprised
Having only recently been given this, I have to admit to not expecting too much from it. However, there's some classic Blackmore sounds and I must admit to preferring Mr White's... Read more

Great guitar - over-stretched vocals
The music here is great; Blackmore is peerless in his element. But DW struggles to keep up. Probably the weakest vocal performance on a Rainbow album, but still, given the... Read more
