All rainbow is good rainbow. 👊🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Love this album. Rising is my favorite.

One of the first hard rock albums I bought, back in the end of the 70s. Still like it, the beautiful multi layered voice, clear guitar tone and good compositions. The atmosphere is still enchanting, a bit of folk, blues, Hendrix, early hard rock.

First Rainbow album I listened to. Liked it well enough but it was my gateway to RISING. CLASSIC!

Man On The Silver Mountain what a song. The best Rainbow albums 3 first and yes on stage

Much love for this one ! Catch the rainbow is my favorite!Years ago i was luck enough 2 find a used copy a Japanese 1st at a flea market for a dollar!! My archive copy! Great video cheers!😮

Great debut with some classic Rainbow songs

I listen to this more than any other Rainbow album.

Great album all the way through, nothing wrong with this album.

The band on this album is simply all the guys from Ronnie's previous band, Elf. Catch The Rainbow makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, it's SO GOOD

Love this album, bought it at Grant's Department Store when I was 14.

I love this album.

I adore this album! I remember listening as the sun went down on mushrooms the other year!!! I probably love this album the most well of all the rainbow albums! Ach I adore Rising and L.L.R.N.R!

I think I'm the only one that really enjoys songs like If You Don't Like Rock And Roll and Sabbath's Rock 'N Roll Doctor. It's that whole light and shade thing with 70s hard rock that I love, mixing the doom and gloom with a fun boogie rocker now and then. Those first three Rainbow albums are all amazing.🤟

I love the debut to death, it doesn't match up to the next two with Ronnie, but is has a charm all its own that matches those. Those are majestic and bombastic and ambitious. The debut is stodgy but matches the folky medieval nature of the album. The production isn't incredible but sufficient. I definitely agree the two boogie tracks, "Black Sheep of the Family" and "If You Don't Like Rock n Roll" I could seriously do without. The album possesses 4 of my top 10 or 12 Rainbow tracks with "Man on the Silver Mountain", "Catch the Rainbow", "Temple of the King", and "Sixteenth Century Greensleeves". The other three tracks are good as well. Considering the lack of heaviness on Stormbringer (save for its muscular title track) and the dated boogie of Elf, Rainbow proved to be a worthwhile experiment right out of the gate.

Love it. I'd argue it's the first of a 7 album run by Ronnie James Dio that could be considered the best in all of hard rock/metal history (This in 1975 through Last In Line in 1984).

Dio is my favorite singer and blackmore is one of my favorite guitar players.

"Ritchie Blackmore's Elf" :)

I heard where Richie left Deep Purple because the rest of the band was listening to Stevie Wonder and he didn’t like the a funk rock direction .. but the Rainbow debut has some fairly groovy funky tracks

Drummer Gary Driscoll and bassist Craig Gruber went on to form Bible Black
