Brilliant
I didn't know a lot about Rainbow but bought the CD because I like the work of Ritchie Blackmore. A good move - I frequently play this CD nowadays.

Good selection of Rainbows music over the years
Bought this set as I wanted the brilliant Down to Earth on CD but for not a lot more money I could get the extra four albums. Also it was a good way to listen to some of their later stuff as I sort of missed Straight Between the Eyes and Bent out of Shape when they were originally releasedas I wasn't keen on the more commercial direction they seeemed to be taking. Glad I did as both good albums, perhaps I have mellowed in my old age! If the set had included the Rising album instead of one of the later ones it would have got 5 stars but sadly not. Packaging is minimal with no frills but for the money acceptable. Good range of Rainbow's music over the years from the magnificant Dio days up to Joe Lynn Turner and what was their last album for a few years.

but the best ones are with Dio singing
5 albums covering the whole spectrum of rainbow. but the best ones are with Dio singing. although Rainbow Rising (with stargazer) isn't here, you still get Ritchie Blackmores Rainbow (temple of the king, catch the rainbow, man on the silver mountain), and Long Live Rock & Roll ( title track, LA connection, the shed etc) which are still classics. delivered in a couple of days as well. great service.

Rainbow Rises!
80's Heavy Rock at it's best. The transition over the five discs beautifully defines the drift away from Dio's rainbows and wizardry to Joe Lyn Turners more MOR approach, beautifully bridged by the brilliant Graham Bonnet in the middle. Blackmore's guitar sparkles throughout. This set is wonderful showcase highlighting one of the greatest guitarists and three vocalists of the genre.

Ottimo prezzo per una buona selezione
Consegna nei tempi. Prezzo migliore sul mercato per una buona selezione di 5 album in studio dei Rainbow nelle versioni originali senza bonus track e con copertine simil lp. Mancano Raising del periodo Dio e Difficilt ti cure del periodo Turner.Mancano

Excellent boxset, pour profiter de lâessentiel : la musique du virtuose Blackmore
5 CD en pochette replica vinyle : câest minimaliste mais de bonne qualitĂ© sonore ! Avec 2 albums de lĂ©gende, ceux avec the voice DIO. 2 autres albums de bonne qualitĂ© Ă redĂ©couvrir, et un Down to Earth plus expĂ©rimental voire commercial. Pour un prix mini. Ă complĂ©ter avec le cultissime Rainbow Rising en version deluxe (remaster & remix).

Five stars for 5 albums is 25 stars.
Like many great bands, I started by getting a compilation, but wanted to hear more from Ritchie Blackmore and company, so first picked up 'Bent out of Shape' and the last record 'Stranger in Us All' with Doogie White.I then bought this even though it has 'Bent out of Shape' for the other four records since it was a fantastic deal.Yeah, you do not get the Dio sung 'Rainbow Rising', but you do get two other Dio records, one Graham Bonnet, and the two Joe Lynn Turner sung records. I like tolisten to them all. Graham Bonnet's 'Down to Earth' is my favorite with 'Bent out of Shape' a close second and then Dio's work. But many people prefer Dio. There are no liner notes, but you get the 5 cds in cardboard sleeves with the original album art. Hours of great music to listen to for anyone that likes melodic rock. Enjoy.
