Thread: Post-Dio Rainbow

    I have the 12" 45 of these tunes on the flip side of Can't Let You Go. Too bad I can't find Stranded by itself but the whole show is up there. Still like this version of All Night Long.

    I remember hearing this band! The girl has a beautiful voice indeed, although last time I heard her she sounded more like Anneli Drecker:

    Among youtube things I've bookmarked over the years, noticed a few that fit this thread:

    Agreeing with the reply that SYBG is a good song. Have bookmarked two good covers of it, the first from Brian May:

    https://youtu.be/sKW9kWAIdI0

    As far as JLT years, as far as whether or not it was hard to listen to his vocals: basically, happened to not listen to the studio albums, liked the live Finyl Vinyl 30+ years ago, but, now that I have better ears, would have to check his singing on it -- I think he wasn't great on this one other live concert, the one they had released a video of. But I thought and still think he was fine generally. Those who didn't care for his vocals can check out some of those songs now as covers, such as.these two (the first song here is one I think JLT had sung fine himself to begin with, and the cover is good too)

    Ritchie B, listening to the first verse alone, you *do* know that the vocals performance on this video at the band's official youtube account is pretty off, right? Wow, geez :-)

    Is that Derek Shernian playing keyboards? What is this? Like the Finnish version of American Idol or something?

    Pause it at 1:15 and you'll see the guy looks nothing like Sherinian (but he does like tilting his keyboard like him).

    Have just read in a vocals vid that this vocalist has posted 10 days ago at his youtube that the usual effects path in his vocal videos includes auto-tune! Wow ok, I hadn't realized that. He had many pitch-perfect'ish performances there, this sort of explains it, interesting.

    I have no idea what Sherinian looks like. I just know he has that reverse tilted keyboard thing, and in fact, I think that's the same model Derek plays. That's why I liked.

    ^^ JLT has more of a right to sing Mark II DP material than Rod Evans did in the late 70s. JLT actually performed those songs with the band.
