Rainbow Man On The Silver Mountain

[init4mojo]

Come and make me holy again...

[liberty452]

If these gyes would do this kind of thing here in former soviet union in a cities like moscow or sankt peterburg in 80 's , it could be a revolution or the falling of a soviet sistem !!! You gyes don't realise what have you gott in 80 's.I mean people of europe and usa . you have seen a greatest musicians in history of the world !

[GPXgirl]

Yeah Richie was great, but lets not forget the amazing vocals of the one and only... RONNIE JAMES DIO!!! He is and always will be a legend!

[janntorn]

Richie was good guitar player and songs writer, but today he is anything.

[wpsracing108]

Two days ago I got this Strat!!

ahhhh shit I've been playing this for the last 48 hours - even got the intro pickup switching down pat

Thank you Sir Blackmore

[yegenek]

This is way too faster than the studio version.

[typhoon0314]

rip ronnie

[1960Pagefan]

I'm a huge Jimmy Page fan he's my number one, but Blackmore is right up there - the man is amazing!!!!

[eeby7]

Oh yes memories of '78!



[wpsracing108]

Huge memories with this vid! Must have played that intro 60000 times back when I first saw this!! Blackmore/Dio - the greatest

[theguycansing]

DIO,THE SINGING ANGEL GOD SENT TO US,FOR THE TIME HE DID,WE THANK YOU!

[theoriginalRonnie31]

Can not think of a better metal singer. Thanks Ronnie

[cookie86051]

yyyeeeeeaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­!!!!!!!!! kick assss!!!



[justentime77]

RIP Cozy and Ronnie!

[AzMike1157]

No matter what Richie is playing on the guitar....You always know it's him....in a class all by himself. Just listen to the studio version of "Child in Time" The solo in the middle is that of a virtuoso.

[335pro]

@AzMike1157 So True !! So few musicians these days really learn how to play and emote, let alone develope their own style. Richie just plain ROCKS !!!

[theuglygarden1]

we're not worthy! doodley doup!

[2ybtz]

hail ritchie blackmore...superb guitarist!!!!!

[nabecwright]

someone taking speed or something? way to fast...............

[GrandiLive]

ronnie james dio , is the man on the silver mountain. Rip....

[KOSTAS311070]

Only a human voice can stant against the guitar of Richie and was Ronnie James Dio!!

[koboldasylum]

This song is about Red from Pokemon.

[knoelmag]

Ritchie Blackmore is the greatest, most underrated guitarist in history.

[AnnoyingSwedishGuy]

This is really one of the best live songs I've ever heard, man does it kick ASS!

[TheJohnnyCotts]

@AnnoyingSwedishGuy Definitely. This puts the studio version to shame.

[HD21602]

Yep I saw them in concert, it was GREAT, Awsome is overused GREAT discribed the experince better.Dio was in his prime. RIP Dio U were GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tracypritchett]

i saw Rainbow in 83 Joe Lynn Turner did a good job. he's no Dio but he held his own

[eomeras]

Well,to clear it,Dio is the best Rock/Metal voice ever existed....hes talented and he can make even a pop song sound outstanding with his voice....but indeed its Ritchie's Rainbow not Dio's....but none ever better replacing voice existed as Dio's....and i am pretty sure that if he had tried to create a band instead of moving from band to band , he would make one of the greatest bands ever....

[protheseus666]

i love rainbow

[2mebnice]

Dio had said on that metal show he saw Ritchie treat fans like shit who just wanted an autograph. Thats why he said he always had time for his fans,

[johhr06]

People always said he was a Moody M.F. but the the whole Rainbow tour the rainbow on stage was causing a lot of tecno. problems they finally shit canned the deal and along with his Buzzing and popping that thing caused it cleared up along with His Mood for the most part but you know as an artist he has the right

[TodayAt420]

man... some of these comments.. parents need to stop letting stupid kids use youtube

[beyondtheveilofdeath]

Who the hell are those fifty idiots?????

[eomeras]

@beyondtheveilofdeath go in a bar that play Rihanna ,Lady Gaga , Justin Bieber and Lil Wayne and you will find way more than 50 idiots

[monkeyeatbananananas]

i dont know about the haters but ill be listening to Rainbow for an eternity. LONG LIVE ROCK n ROLL

[83shovel]

Rainbow, one of the greatest albums EVER

[lolzmaster33]

@83shovel too bad its this song is not even on a album called rainbow man :P

[chihawks2010]

I saw Purple with Gillian and Coverdale and Rainbow.'

Blackmore was always worth the 6 bucks a ticket back then.

[Korea553]

Whoa dont ever call Blackmore a bad guitarist.... He's the whole damn reason my me and father started playing guitar and he's been a great influence on so many guitarists

[rmf09024]

@Korea553 he must not know anything about true guitar players

[BurningGlobe]

@Korea553 Blackmore Is One Of The GREATS

[thijslaagland]

@BurningGlobe And steve Morse?

[stefan170569]

awesome !!!!

[huskerspew]

@AussiePride991 I agree, but Blackmore always had a knack for finding amazing vocalists to accompany him - witness Ian Gillan, David Coverdale and of course, Dio.

[micktheMaag]

awesome opening.. never got a chance to see them.. but listened to many a song.. thanks for posting..

[xenoghost1]

lets be grateful that ritchei is still alive

[triskweline]

It's ritchie's rainbow, jeez people, come over Dio dying.

[DickLodge68]

@triskweline Then you are a simpleton or a jackass. Dio was the real vocal force behind Blackmore's Rainbow. It's like losing Phil to UFO, or Plant to Zeppelin. This WAS the set. Seems like in your mind anyone could pass away and ...who's next? .These are brothers and mates! WTF is wrong with you? Just like any band or relationship, you don't honor our dead! You think Ozzy is happy Dio took over and now dead? Oh it was Ritchies's band but you can't mourn Ronnie's death? Think about it! You Sod

[fraka899]

@triskweline fuck off.

[96JackDaniels]

DIO ( GOD ) IS OUR MAN ON THE SILVER MOUNTAN ( HEAVEN AND HELL XD )

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FAVOURITE SINGER!!!!

R.I.P.

[michaels2boys]

Ronnie James Dio's Rainbow!

[praetorianus72]

Dio is a god, and Cozy rrrrrrocks on this vid. Those were the best times. The 70's are gone, and everything is over now

[MultiLiamm]

dio puts so much emotion into his singing now he is entertaining heaven

[TheKerm1967]

im steel so wont u come and try to bend me if u can

[013dirtdiver]

PLEASE READ!

It's not a good idea to go to Biebers video & click the dislike button cause every time we go to his video he gets payed a few cents cause his vid's sponsered. Instead we pick songs like this & get as many people as we can to watch so by the 9th of July all rock videos will be most viewed on youtube charts.This will get the younger audience to listen to good music & might have good rock bands form again.PLEASE SPREAD THIS MESSAGE! THUMBS UP!

[aliikoa7]

Rest in Peace



[DOKTURX]

my god! seen these in 77 at preston...fuckin awesome!!

[AlexLazare]

We could see how they all enjoyed playing. Awesome song.

[coronet67]

Too fast

[TheVoodooHighway]

this is the reason why rock n' roll will never die.

[Sjokong]

The Band carried.... Ronnie soared......Ritchie distracted... Sorry bro...But....look at the end result and feel of this song...

[McDago100]

Nothing out today remotely compares with this. Unfortunately the music of today is a wasteland.

[nennass1]

The music is as eternal spirit has no end

[superKOEImania]

η Ελλαδα ακουει φανατικα Dio

RockInPeace

[1dstrampe]

I asked to the Gods to bless Ronnie, they told me they couldn't because he was one of them now!!!! FOREVER DIO!!!!!

[vennootje]

RIP Ronnie and Cozy

[PierreC2]

Rythm is too fast. I prefer the original version.

[KOSTAS311070]

when i first hear that song i thought i was the man,today i'm still climbing ,tommorow God knows.

[Rowwwaan]

All guitarist should see this awesome finesse! Blackmoore is one of the best gitarist in the whole world.

[jawertmk]

I was over seas still in my heart

[SFCBenny57]

A little disappointing because they sped the song up rather than playing it at the normal pace. Whenever a band does that I think they just want to do a perfunctory version, get through it and go on to something else, like they don't think the song is worth doing correctly anymore.

[TheMichaelseymour]

@SFCBenny57 what you say is probably true {in some cases } but often it can be that the band is excited and that manifests in faster playing - ritchie started the song here -and cozy powell was just keeping up with him .

[MickM621]

wow ritchie absolutely SUCKS on this and thats coming from a HUGE fan. still fun version. I like that its a super group after the fact. Keyboard guy went on to do the "Planet P Project" w/ the hit 'why me?"

[rmf09024]

@MickM621 well it doesnt suck, its different from what your used to

[MickM621]

@rmf09024 actually i think its sort of ruderless and he's Blackmore's not having his best gig. Not the 1st time i have seen vid of him mailing it in live

[MickM621]

@rmf09024 no, i been playing guitar a long time and this is bad. sometimes blackmore doesn't care. he's a jerk like that

[urmom102697]

@MickM621 dude. ritchie blackmore is one of the best. don't talk about a god like that. weather he plays your taste of music or not he is an incredible guitarist.

[MickM621]

@urmom102697 i love the guys music and agree he's a guitar God but this isn't his best work. he's well known to be moody. chill outthere mrs blackmore lol

[71farhan]

Iam so jelous of people who have seen rainbow live. why was i born in 90s and grew up in 00s.

[DiamondJamVids]

One year without Dio.. rip

[MurakamiTesuka]

a 45 personas les gusta Justin biberon

[nennass1]

God of Guitar is Ritchie Blackmore !

[Stratogabri71]

Fantastic intro, epic performance!

[eibon81]

"Coming down with fire, to lift our Spirits Higher"-May Ronnie James Dio forever sing his lungs out in the afterlife.....and may his booming voice deafen the ears of the jealous tyranical GOD!

[NickFury1006]

Man Blackmore was a Bad ass !

[5150505]

Отличное выступление!!! Одна их лучших групп всех времён!!!!  (Excellent performance! One of the best bands of all time! ")

[mostyn76]

what a pile of shit that spews from your stupid uneducated radicalist brainwashed mouth hellias90!

[blancmel21]

Dio > all

[OzzInter]

Brilliant!

Blackmore can make a guitar cry and sing!

He seems to toy with his guitar and make it look so easy!

From this metal "tour de force" to a beautiful version of "Greensleeves" he can do it all!

[rockerzepp]

he's on the highest mountain now we shall never forget

[superKOEImania]

i wish i was there,i wish i had seen Dio live

[bintu9]

good song

[PanteraMark]

Today April 14th is Ritchie Blackmore's Birthday.

[Bulluk1]

WOW that's amazing!! DIO is the best rocksinger and Cozy PoweRRR 's best drummer!!

[takusamadotcom]

45 can't reach the Silver Mountain

[GlenorchyHarleyRider]

Jimmy Bain isn't in this line up its Bob Daisley playing bass skullgrater

[GunnCommanderX]

RIP Ronnie.

[nik1969100]

Dio is the Messiah, all ye who come before him should kneel down.

[skullgrater]

jimmy bain (bass player) lives next door to me

[mitchellvanvliet]

@skullgrater

awesome dude :P lucky.

[83shovel]

Ritchie Blackmore and Ronny James Dio- pure greatness.

[nissansentraglx]

ahhhhh this is sex for the ears! great tune!

[Iam18yearsolddddd]

dio rules

[MrAssSlapper]

45 ppl DESERVE stomach cancer

[randyzoellner]

Love it!

[kamurandeliormanli]

Blackmore is the Bset.Rip Dio

[MICMECMEXICALI]

same as crazy on you from heart,just open both videos at the same time and ajust the guitar solo at the begining,

[PARALAPESCA]

@MICMECMEXICALI did you mean the solo at the begining? yes it works as intro.

[444nice]

Shit, I can't play guitar to save my life, never mind playing guitar with strobe lights in my face! Ritchie Blackmore didn't miss a beat! RIP DIO!

[samgrahaminc]

@444nice Happened to me once, the strobes stopped me from seeing what I was doing.

[honestmatt1978]

i wanna roll through the "avenues" all the windows down in the F-350 Dually crankin this shit. vibrate the jiggies windows for a change with some real music. a lil payback. that and i just love this shit

[TheTC]

Man that finisher solo was TIIIITE.

[zsxd55]

@TheTC Totally . The way he switches from one pickup to another to produce a tone change is exxxxxellleent!!!

[manowar8899]

is it just me or the intro is the best guitar iprovisation ever ???

[rebb61]

How Can 43 Not Like this?

Lift your Spirit Higher!!!!

[MrTraceMan]

Rainbow was such an under rated band they could do it all, they were outstanding musicians and showmen.....DIO was the best ....RIP.

[gillan5]

I was 16 by then. First I saw Rainbow 1976 with opening act AC/DC! Nobody knew them at that time in Germany. Ritchie was the best showman on stage I have ever seen.

[woddel2001]

@gillan5 da hast du ja einen sensationellen abend gehabt, gillan5. und das mit 16. ich bin im osten groß geworden und konnte solche events, im fast selben alter wie du, leider nicht miterleben. aber später habe ich ritchie mit deep purple, rainbow und blackmore´s night mehrmals gesehen. und, ja, er ist einfach ein gott auf der bühne. wenn ich ritchie blackmore gitarre spielen höre, das möchte ich noch dazu sagen, dann geht mir das richtig ans herz, das ist einfach wunderschön.

[ehalt2]

@gillan5

oh man i'm jealous!

i am 16 now, too late right?

[ELEANORIGBY200]

@gillan5 Ohhh my god!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lucky you AC DC is my favorite band and rainbow is a great band too

[praetorianus72]

@gillan5 You are a lucky bastard. I would give anything to go back in time to see Dio and ACDC live in the 70's

[gillan5]

@praetorianus72 Some of my buddies are a bit older than I am (I am born 1960) so I envy them for the Beatles, Stones, Kinks, TYafter, the Who, all the Mod thing with the motorbikes and whatnot, and some years earlier they had Bill Haley, Gene Vincent. So I guess it ist a matter of time with the exception that the time for really good guitar based music stopped moreor less beginning of the 80ies. It all is the song. If your song is no good your name could be Blackmore of Page: it would not work

[wsiklogfh]

@gillan5 better then Angus Young?

[nypitbull1]

Dio is Italian not spanish.

[ModellStJames111]

@nypitbull1 Who gives a fuck about his heritage - the man was a GOD - metal is not about barriers. Half of SLAYER is Spanish - Lombardo: Cuba - Tom Aryaya: Chile.

[gmellos]

Great Song! RIP Ronnie

[wsiklogfh]

i would sell my soul to the devil, and say to him "here, take me and bring dio back"

[Razu985]

43 people do not know what awesome music sounds like!

[GeorgVanHalen]

Dio come and make us holy again! We wanna visit the Man On The Silver Mountain !

[Hellias90]

You've lifted our spirit higher with your songs  with your eyes you've seen inside our souls we're gonna scream your name for ever cause you're already holy for us : DIO ,THE MAN ON THE SILVER MOUNTAIN R.I.P.

[ilililhy1]

@Hellias90 No one is Holy, except GOD ALMIGHTY,who can know his ways? We are all sinners saved by grace,JESUS did not come to call the righteous,but sinners to REPENTANCE.

[rami2896]

@ilililhy1

you dumb church boy just shut up

dio in itilian means god so dio is holy

[ilililhy1]

@rami2896 There is not one just man upon this earth that doeth good & sinneth not,but a man cannot get into the kingdom of Heaven based on his works or his deeds,but his faith in JESUS CHRIST! If thou shalt confess with thy mouth & believe in thine heart that GOD hath raised him from the dead,thou shalt be saved! Ask Jesus to come into your heart today,if you humbly repent of your sins,he will forgive you

[Hellias90]

@ilililhy1 ,look i know a lot of things about that god issue....Ηuman made every god and no god made human.....So go read some things and don't eat what's you 've been served without chewing it first....Anyway there is no god , only Dio

[ilililhy1]

@Hellias90 Look-AROUND YOU-GOD is Everywhere; HE'S CREATOR OF ALL! He formed man from the dust of the ground & breathed the breath of life into his nostils,& man became a living soul! Your soul's 4 ever!Remember there's ONLY 1 GOD & HE HAS ONLY 1 BEGOTTEN SON; FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE! Jesus paid the price for ur sins so u don't have to pay the price w/ ur soul;Make Jesus ur Savior Now

[callanrockslol]

@ilililhy1 hnmmmmm, what i see from this that i should find religion, and i have, from now on, i shall be know as, A VIKING

[ilililhy1]

@callanrockslol JESUS Loves YOU

[callanrockslol]

@ilililhy1 viking jesus does

[callanrockslol]

@Hellias90 pushing it a bit, Dio isnt a god, he is a rockgod/metalgod/musicgod

[superKOEImania]

@Hellias90 σωστος μονο ο Dio ειναι θεος

[rmf09024]

@Hellias90 your dumb as they come

[haisulilol]

@Hellias90 Lol man. You said the last word :D

[Redbulldozer13]

@Hellias90 your an idiot...

[Tyleriscoolx2]

FROM WIKIPEDIA...

Rainbow performing in Munich in 1977. The electric rainbow that spanned the stage used so much power, it frequently interfered with the guitars and amplifiers.

[AngusVanFrehley]

All hail the dragon-throated master. R.I.P. RjD!

[GREATWHITE2]

We should ALL just quit knocking each other down and just ENJOY the music that we have!!!!!!

[chickeneggs4u]

43 dislikes??? WHAT!!!!! It don't get any better!!

[GameDudeification]

@chickeneggs4u Haters gonna Hate... Dio Lives in All his Songs and when we listen to them he lives in our hearts

[fabriciozu]

Actually, Dio means God in Italian.

In spanish, it is Dios.

[juliagsof]

i really hope there is an afterlife...can u imagine the gigs there?OMFG!

[nahue1985]

@juliagsof A great gig on the sky.

[ModellStJames111]

@nahue1985 Jesus, now Gary Moore on the prowel up there - be some serious jamming

[bullpentherapy]

this is the orginal shredder! not yngwie! there i said it! he was yngwie idol!

[Chris51]

Riff has a hint of Smoke on the Water

[Chris51]

2 all time legends

[weiss1432]

Great talent at every postion.

[kjrossblackmore]

Blackmore = GOD

[coolengine2000]

@kjrossblackmore i must say at this time he was the best not even eddie v halen could come close.i dont like this shredding shid that much.sounds and looks like guys are masturbating with a guitar.blackmore got soul and feeling when he plays the guitar not many have it just a handful.thats what it makes someone so special and different.there are many many good guitar players on this planet.thousands.but just a dozen is special and unique

[daffyduck789]

Dio=God...it's because he is GOD

[Lesia44]

If you ask me you just don't see enough fringes these days!

[TheSuperMerc]

I've got to clean my ceiling, because this just blew my mind.

[JahElad]

To bad rainbow wasn't popular in the USA until they went commercial. Most of their greatest songs were done with Dio as the lead singer.

R.I.P. Ronnie...you will be forever missed.

[riffolaman]

His intro here is orgasmic. Even better when you consider he spent the last few nights in jail. Same stage clothes.

[coolengine2000]

@riffolaman yep but imagine if richie didnt had the money and the guys who helped him to get out of the prison in austria in 1977.he would be still there.oh shid.some crazy assholes are on this planet.richie just helped a girl who was punished by a guy in vienna austria at the concert from richies rainbow.in front of the stage.

and the austrian motherfker called the police .incredible stuff.and the police is pretty mean in austria.

[MegaOctober13]

If a voice could move a mountain!

[fajrspredr]

@MegaOctober13 he already did.DIO did it

[ATShakeHF]

is this on a dvd?
