Ritchie Blackmore’s RAINBOW - Unreleased 1981 Live Gem To Finally See The Light Of Day

The pot of gold just keeps getting bigger and bigger! Following the release last year of a deluxe box set containing 3 CDs of incredible live performances from 1979, Purple Pyramid Records announces another superb concert release by guitar god Ritchie Blackmore and Rainbow.

Taking its name from the city and year in which it was recorded, Boston 1981 features crystal clear audio that captures the vibrant energy and emotion pouring through the band as they offer up scorching versions of “Man On The Silver Mountain,” “Long Live Rock N’ Roll” and even the epic “Smoke On The Water,” a nod to Blackmore’s tenure with another legendary band of a certain Purplish hue.

Packaged in a mini-LP wallet for the CD and a gorgeous gatefold double LP set featuring a stitched-in 20-page booklet and 3 different coloured vinyl options (red, blue, and green), this exciting release will be available everywhere starting May 13th.

Tracklisting:

“Spotlight Kid”
“Love's No Friend”
“I Surrender”
“Man On The Silver Mountain”
“Catch The Rainbow”
“Can't Happen Here”
“Lost In Hollywood”
“Difficult To Cure”
“Long Live Rock N' Roll”
“Smoke On The Water”
