The RAINBOW Fanclan Legacy reports:

The last of three shows from Rainbow's September 1976 tour of Germany (Dusseldorf and Cologne are already available), newly mixed from the multi-tracks, and issued to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the band's first world tour is finally released in Europe. As before the 2xCD set features the regular set-list from that tour: 'Kill The King', 'Mistreated', 'Sixteenth Century Greensleeves', 'Catch The Rainbow', 'Man On The Silver Mountain', 'Stargazer', 'Still I'm Sad', 'Do You Close Your Eyes'.

The 2CD comes with an 8 page colour booklet with notes and pictures. The release is expected sometime in October / November, according to Deep-purple.net.

In Japan this 2CD was already released in May 2006 as part of a 6CD Box containing all 3 concerts. In Europe Live in Köln (Cologne) was released in July 2006, Live in Düsseldorf 1976 in February 2007.

Note: Although the CD is supposed to be recorded in the Messzentrum Halle in Nürnberg, there are still sources that claim Rainbow played that night in the Mannheim Multihalle and never did Nürnberg that tour. Even the booklets of Live In Germany 1976 (released in 1990) and Live In Koln 1976 name Mannhelm for September 28th.
