From Demons And Wizards (1972). Fantastic album. One of the greatest albums in 70's.

Lyrics:

There rides the rainbow demon
On his horse of crimson fire
Black shadows are following closely
On the heels of his desire

Ridin' on in the mist of morning
No one dared to stand in his way
Possessed by some distant calling
Riding on through night and day

Rainbow demon
Pick up your heart and run
Rainbow demon
Lives for his sword and his gun

  • This was one of the first albums I was turned on to when it came out.I was 15.Uriah Heep to this day is still one of my favorite bands.Too bad you can't hear music like this on the radio anymore.

  • @Deathsiren And just how old are you? None of the newer so-called "metal" bands could come up with something like this on their own. Ask them who their influences are and don't be shocked if they mention this band.

  • You definitely don't hear music like this on the radio anymore.

  • @michaelschenker1955 You hit it right on the 10 ring. Rainbow Demon has such a sense of impending doom. 

  • I've heard this album on and on since I was a child. Everytime I can find something new on it, really incredible!! But overall, this Rainbow Demon is so doomy and gloomy that it's probably the heaviest song on this LP.

  • @moneyu  CD? They weren't invented when this album came out! I wore this out on my hifi turntable. Great to hear this again after 40yrs.

  • @naturelover1957

    You can. You just have to live near the right station, or try Sirius. Yep they are just sooooo good. I think I wore this cd out... Yep, they don't make 'em like this anymore.....

  • rock on ...40 yr old tight ass fem columbus ohio

  • I'm so glad that I recently discovered this incredible band!

  • No...kidding...

    The first time I heard this song it was a metal cover and it sounded so strange and out of place I knew it couldn`t be the original. So glad I heard this version...this one sounds like it was meant to be

  • @ologhai2 - for sure, this is an absolute CLASSIC. There are a few bands nowadays that have been influenced by Uriah Heep and other bands that are actually putting out stuff that may be considered 'classics' at some time in the future... you should check out The Devils Blood, Blood Ceremony, and Jex Thoth. All are female-fronted bands that are firmly rooted in 1970s classic rock. Seriously, check em out. *thumbs up*

  • @BattyKnightmare kill them both you will get way more experience points
