The rare behind the scenes video below featuring Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow was taken by the band’s tour manager in March 1984, and gives great insight into the backstage environment including a brief meeting with Japanese legendary promoter, Mr Udo. Check out Deep Purple members Roger Glover and Joe Lynn Turner and see and hear the final moments of the band performing “Smoke On The Water”:
In June 2016, legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore made many long held dreams come true for his fans as Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow played three concerts in Europe, two in Germany and one in England.
The two German shows at Loreley and Bietigheim were caught on camera to produce Memories In Rock - Live In Germany, which will be released via Eagle Rock Entertainment DVD+2CD, Blu-ray+2CD, and Digital Formats on November 18th. A Deluxe version (DVD, Blu-ray & 2CD in a 48 page hardback photobook), along with a 3LP version (180gm vinyl), will be available as an import on December 2nd.
