RAINBOW - Live In Munich 1977 CD, DVD, LP Sets Due In April




On April 30, Eagle Rock Entertainment will release RAINBOW: Live In Munich 1977 on 2CD, DVD, and 2LP


Captured during the band’s 1977 European tour, Live In Munich is the
only full live concert ever filmed with the classic Ritchie
Blackmore/Ronnie James Dio/Cozy Powell classic line-up. With newly
remastered sound, this is also the first time this complete concert is
available on vinyl.



Rainbow was the brainchild of legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore,
created in 1975 after his departure from Deep Purple. A string of hit
albums ignited immediate success, which persevered until 1983, when
Blackmore disbanded the group (and re-joined DEEP PURPLE). Featuring the
line-up of Blackmore, Cozy Powell (drums), Bob Daisley (bass), David
Stone (keyboards), and premiere Rock and Roll vocalist Ronnie James
Dio, the excitement in the air during this night was electric. This
might be due, in part, to Blackmore’s late arrival to Munich just before
the concert, after being smuggled out of Austria after trouble with the
police at a gig two nights earlier. This seemed to inspire both the
band and the audience to create a truly remarkable gig.



The DVD includes original promo videos for 'Long Live Rock ‘N’
Roll', 'Gates Of Babylon' and 'L.A. Connection', a photo gallery,
slideshow with audio commentary, interviews, and the Rainbow Over Texas
‘76 feature, which includes additional interviews and performance
footage. Truly, Live In Munich 1977 is a brilliant showcase of the
primal electricity of Rainbow.
