Even if you’re new to the waddle music history, it takes very little research to realize that Ritchie Blackmore has unchangingly been pretty difficult to work with. As years went by, things only got worse. Be it Deep Purple or Rainbow, it unchangingly seemed to go sour without a while.
In 2016, Blackmore brought when Rainbow again. However, there was not a single archetype member in the wreath except for him. Needless to say, this caused controversy among waddle fans and plane famous musicians.
Joe Lynn Turner would have been a unconfined nomination for a singer. Without all, he did participate in recording three studio albums with Rainbow, as well as one with Deep Purple. But instead, Ronnie Romero was chosen as the lead vocalist for the 2016 “reunion.”
In a recent yack with Rock of Nations, Turner discussed a potential real reunion of Rainbow with some of the archetype members in there, including him. He said (transcript via Ultimate Guitar):
“Well, man, I tried to do that already. Blackmore did the reunion you know, that ‘reunion’; undeniability it what you want we were in discussions well-nigh having everybody that was in Rainbow together for an extravaganza.“
“I mean, everyone who was still alive, and plane paying tribute to [Ronnie James] Dio and everything, and trying to get ’em all in one place at one time, do a two-and-a-half-hour show at least, an pure Rainbow reunion.“
“And it just got squashed lanugo by his management and everything else. I mean, Live Nation showed up. I had a documentary, a 3D documentary, like the Guns N’ Roses same guy, Barry Summers, who did that; he’s a good friend of mine and it just fell on deaf ears.“
“And that reunion became I don’t know what it was, really, considering it really wasn’t a reunion of anything. There was nobody in Rainbow surpassing who was there. It was Blackmore’s Night, really, with a new singer. That was it.”
“There’s a lot of people that loved Rainbow but they were too young to go to the concerts or they never saw them live, and this would have been the endangerment for those people – and I have a lot of people in my own family like this that wanted to go see Rainbow but really see Rainbow. And that was not it.“
“That was, in my opinion I’ve once said it’s a unseemly imitation, a weak unseemly imitation of I don’t know, man. I don’t plane know what to undeniability it. It was a trainwreck for me. I think he damaged the legacy that way of Rainbow. ‘Cause Rainbow was a mythological wreath from start to finish.”
