One of the best songs in the history of rock music!

The best Rainbow line up! Blackmore, Dio, Cozy Powell, Jimmy Bain and Tony Carey!!!

Cannot get enough of this song all these years later. Absolute masterpiece. RIP RJD 🤘

Tony Carey on keyboards (very good intro), the great Cozy Powell on drums, Jimmy Bain on bass, the fantastic Ritchie Blackmore (the man in black) on guitar and superbe Ronnie James Dio (RIP) on vocals. One of the best Rainbow's track ever... this song is 36 years old!!!

I was there in 1977 ! The concert was delayed because of Ritchie (trouble with the police,as always)! Suddenly there was the child voice of Judy Garland talking about a rainbow rainbow rainbow.....BAAAM !!! INFERNO!!! Out of fuckin nowhere 'Rainbow' was there ...including Ritchie completely under fire !! They started with something that I couldn't reconize because Iwas frightened to death !! The volume was the blast of hell !! The fans went mad . It was 'Kill the king' ! And it was absolutely magic. I was 16 and I know I'll never forget !

Anybody can make art but not all can make a masterpiece! This is easily one of the greatest songs ever recorded.

R.I.P., DIO, Cozy Powell and Jimmy Bain

RIP Ronnie : 12 years today you passed away.....You are A Light in the black. Stargazer and a light in the black: masterpieces. It's two tracks but one for me.

Arguably...the best song, with the best guitarist...and undoubtedly the best vocalist in history.👍🤘🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💜

A classic Rainbow song with one of the most unique and captivating vocalists on the planet the old Elf himself Ronnie James Dio!

So ahead of their time. One of rocks greatest songs.

Un solo à remettre en cause la suprématie de certains piètres guitaristes Une voix qui restera dans l infini du rock

This is one of the times in music history that geniuses, that otherwise would never work with each other, just so happen to write music together and give us such astounding songs! It's natural that personalities like Richie and Ronnie would inevitably clash, but that golden period of time, that narrow window of them working together has given us these gems.

Of course Ronnie James Dio's voice and lyrics are perfect in this song. But Richie Blackmore's guitar solo in this song is the greatest I've ever heard. It's not just fast shredding, it is haunting and mystical, cuts to your very soul.

My dad (Rip) turned me onto these guys b/c I was born in '75 ... Thank you Dad for your greatest gift

No one ever realizes what a gift to us having great musicians really is......but once they're gone, their legacy lives on forever for true lovers and connoisseurs of music forever.

В 16 лет нравилось и сейчас в 61 слушаю

Hey all singers of today, NO AUTO TUNE and still perfectly in pitch. Listen and learn kids.

I saw rainbow with Dio as lead vocals back in 78 at Austn,Texas Dio rocks Forever

Песня..пришедшая из далекого прошлого и улетевщая в далекое будующее..👍👍👍👌

Love to hear Blackmore play. He was such a master. Way ahead of the game. His stuff with Dio is some of his best.

I just love how Ritchie Blackmore never plays the same song the same way live I've never seen so much heart and Talent come through a guitar in my life

I met Ronnie one of the nicest people in Rock, what a front man. RIP Ronnie🤘Blackmore was on fire on this tour, I was at the front at Hammersmith. Dio never missed a note!🎶

ronnies voice sounds amazing.god rainbow was awesome with ronnie.i was fortunate to see rainbow with ronnie with sabbath etc great singer,great person,he is deeply missed r i p ronnie,the man on the silver mountain!

sometimes you hear a song and you just say to yourself that you can't be serious with just how great that was. This would be one of those songs.

God, Ritchie owned the rock guitar stage this year -- I remember staring at the cover of this album and knew it was a piece of magic before I even heard one note... GREAT!

Это шедевр всех музыкантов объединившихся вокруг великого Ричи и так было и будет всегда. Браво!

Damn those keyboards... This has to be the best Stargazer version ever

Wow! Dio had a voice like no other.

We’re in such a black hole of music now a days, nothing is as inspiring or magical like this piece. This song is pure genius

concerts are not like this anymore. i'm glad i was alive and old enough to see this incredible band, and so many others, play, really play this awesome music.

Amazing Tony Carey solo.

One of my favorite songs of all time. But this version nails it - fantastic intro, great guitar play, incredible drums and of course a singer who is the wizard himself. Love it!

Уже почти 50 лет, а как вчера. Лучшие

very good quality. Saw them in 76 and 77 in the Hague. will never forget it. It was magic. Almost 40 years later IT'S STILL.MAGIC.

Dio just speaks for himself but everything about Blackmore's playing on this track just melts my brain. This combo though is peak metal. Nothing beats this.

Со временем все поймут, что Ричи лучший гитарист ХХ века

Great sound quality for that time! Ronnie James Dio is with out a doubt one of the best metal vocalists of all time! R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio.

Where the heck is the effffin “WORSHIP’ button for this one of a hell and amazing song????

Hard to believe that the only ones still alive from this lineup are Blackmore & Carey. RIP Ronnie, Cozy & Jimmy.

Wow, this is rare - still with Toy Carey on keys.... The solo is amazing!!! 🤘😎🤘

I can't believe he could do this live! Sounds just like the album!

Даже живьем эта песня звучит обалденно!

Ronnie J.D was an exceptional singer, vocalist. Kind regards from Paris!

Carey on the intro keyboards is just amazing. Blackmore always played with some greats, Don Airey, {who went to Ozzy} Tony Carey, not to mention John lord, then add all the other great musicians and you got some of the greatest talent ever to have played with in rock... Legend!

выкладываются на все 100%. красавцы. все великие.

I am only 11 years old but this is one of the best songs of all time

Фантастический музыкальный шедевр!!!

Incredible song the album version is perfection.

The music to grow up with and share. There's nothing like this anymore.

This is music! Thank you Ronnie, thank you Ritchie!

I've heard many people try singing this tune but nobody compares to Ronnie James but they try

Saw Rainbow on the first album tour, and again in 78, then in 96. Missed this tour. Ritchie was always unique, no concert was ever the same. if he was on, dam he was great.

When the music was special!! Mid 70’s what an era!!

Excelent!!! best live version of one of the best song ever Iconic, gorgeus and amazing song Powell, Dio and Blackmore all of them are real monsters

The best song ever , and the outro on rainbow rising album is out of this world

С 1966 по1997 годы были самые лучшие музыкальные произведения в разных стилях,и театр и кино дарили нам шедевры ,как отечественного так и зарубежного искусства ,что называется-душа пела ,прошли те времена времена,увы , идёт полным ходом деградация человечества...!!!

i was there. unforgettable

The definitive Rainbow song and the seed from which modern power metal blossomed. Long live Rock and Roll! Long live Dio!

Too bad there won't be another singer like this nor another guitarist like Richie they are unique, this song is a work of art

The music Ronnie and Richie made together is remarkable and I only hope Richie can look back and see the magic he was part of with the early Rainbow members and the mark it left in rock & roll.

No one even close to Ritchie!!! Great Ronnie, Cozy and Tony. Just magic.

Muy buena interpretación, de 1975 a 1978 fue la mejor etapa de Rainbow lejos. Saludos desde Argentina.

Прекрасно! Замечательно! Чудесно! Охренительно!!!

wow i imagined myself high on acid listening to that intro with the trippy sounds 🤣

Ronnie I miss you :(

Año 2024 escuchando desde Chile este temazo. Lo mejor del mundo.

This is beautiful D: , especially Tony's keyboards

Totally agree. I remember when this first came out. I thought this was the best Rainbow album. And this was the best song. For me its still one of my best kick ass rock songs of all time. RIP Dio!!

The definite founders of Power Metal.

Великолепнейшая композиция!!!!! Шедевр!!!!! Бриллиант в рок музыке!!!!!!!💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

Память на века всем ушедшим рокерам и рок н рольщикам рокершам

a band like this only comes around once every thousand years,or so.

Good old times ...i'm nostalgia when i listen this track..i feel so old now...

Never forget the first time I heard this song and a light in the black

I got to see them at Royal Oak music theater back in 78'. Caught the neck of Ritchies' broken neck, my buddy got to shake Ronnie's hand. I missed seeing Toney play as they had replaced him for Long Live, Rock n Roll. I was 15 years old, this was an incredible day, got to see Cozy drum. Amazing. Nobody wanted them to stop playing. Remember hearing Ritchie jamming on his own before the crowd came in.Couldnt wait to get to our seat. About 40 years ago, still feels like it happened yesterday. Went home and tried jamming the tunes on my Hammond M3 like Toney did on the On Stage album. Turned up my stereo full blast so I could re-experience the concert. What a memory!

Cool intro. I love the synthesizers!

The best song in 2021 and beyond

I like the ending of Ronnie’s vocals on the record ...plays with your heartstrings 🤘

What a voice first live vocal I’ve heard from this period of his career

Super song for the ages! Gorgeous Dio and Cozy!

Excelente, Rainbow sin duda la mejor banda de rock de todos los tiempos.

Rainbow's songs allways have some magic in sound. When I was young man I talked with one old russian hippy. He said: if you listen Rainbow you can't be a bad man. Probably, its true

Thank you lord, for being alive and having met this band.

This is amazing. What has happened to mainstream music. We went from genius like this to total garbage.

This song is timeless

Enjoyed Rainbow on oct 4,1977 in Scheveningen(the Hague). They were fantastic!!!

one of the most pivotal bands to come from this time period . just absolutelty astounding . amazing talent just unmatched? and now DIO, COZY IS NOW STARGAZING DOWN ON US? RIP?

Saw them 30yrs. ago, dios vocals were powerfull, Blackmores solos were blistering,3 thousand seats only, I mean heads, you stood right in front of the stage it was weird,Richfield Colliseum, 4 lilly f-40s then they were called REDS.concert was fantastic..Axeflyer MD.

Ronnie mientras sigamos vivos alguno de tus fans nunca estarás muerto

It doesn't get any better than this ❤

absoluut een van de beste rocksongs ooit

Κορυφαίο κομμάτι της rock - απίστευτη έμπνευση!!

One of the best guitar riffs of all the time for me

Hear that kids? That's when real musicians wrote and performed their own songs without dancers. They played their own instruments masterfully, and put on incredible shows! So fortunate to see this concert at Glendale's Starlight Amphitheater in 1976. Great show!

This song is THE SONG and DIO is THE VOICE of metal. 🤘🏽😎 Holy Dio

I have enjoyed this Concert on the 27.9.1976 in Düsseldorf/Phillipshalle. A friend of mine take a record on a SABA cassette recorder- but this here is much better from the quality! Thanks for this! Generaly Ritchi play Stargazer not often in this Concert Tour. And Ronnie James Dio(RIP) was a Lyrical Highlight! And we will also Remember Craig Gruber(Bass on the 1. Album- Rainbow) who dies of cancer aged 63 in April 2015. The Line up of this tour was: Ronnie James Dio> Vocals Tony Carey > Keyboard Cozy Powell > Drums (RIP) Jimmy Bain > Baß Ritchie Blackmore > Guitarre The best deal was Cozy at this time. His Solo Projekts flopps- and he need a new job. Now the man in Black circeld the rules of Membershipping. I`ver saw Concerts in Colonge 1978 , but this doesn't mach this Concert in Düsseldorf.

In dieser Besetzung ist Rainbow einfach am genialsten gewesen. Dio ist für mich der beste Sänger im Rock. Stargazer ist der perfekteste Song, welcher je gespielt wurde. Ich bedanke mich bei allen fünf Musikern, dass ich heute noch mit Freude diesen Song hören darf

Had the great pleasure of seeing this lineup play this song as a 16yo in late November 1976 in Adelaide on the Australian leg of their world tour. Was my first international band rocket concert. It left a lasting impression on me as they were the best live rock band in the world at the time. I can 'see' those 2 magnificent backdrops & the moving rainbow. It was stunning!

I saw Ronnie in sacred heart tour and omg he was fabulous one of the best concerts ever now in Rainbow with my favorite guitar player in the world ever would have been spectacular! Miss you Ronnie you made me happy with your mystical presence!! R.I.P
