Quick Thoughts: Ranked 90th on VH1's 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock, Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow was a British band formed in California, featuring various lead singers over the years, including the amazing Ronnie James Dio. Ritchie Blackmore himself was an original members of Deep Purple. "Street of Dreams" was the first single from Rainbow's Bent Out of Shape album, released in 1983. According to Blackmore's official website, the music video was banned by MTV for its supposedly controversial hypnotic footage.
Ranking from Original "Top 1000" List: 901
Added to my Personal List? YES
Total Songs Added to Final List: 49
For upcoming concerts: Unfortunately it is no longer possible to see this band live anymore.
Having grown up listening to mostly hip-hop, R&B, some alternative, and all sorts of music in Spanish, I decided it was time to give myself a personal survey of Rock music. My friend BJ Swanner compiled a "Top 1000 Rock Song List", aggregated from several "Top Lists". As I go through all 1,000 songs, I'll be creating my own list, sharing a brief post like this for all the songs that will make my final list. I will not be ranking the songs that make it to my final list.....for now.
