SHE'S CREEPING LIKE
A HUNGRY CAT
I'VE SEEN IT BEFORE
Rising
(also known as Rainbow Rising)
is the second
studio album
by the
British-American
Rock band
It was released on 17 May 1976.
History
Band leader
Ritchie Blackmore
retained only singer
Ronnie James Dio
from the previous album
line-up,
and recruited
drummer
Cozy Powell,
bassist
Jimmy Bain
and
keyboard
player
Tony Carey
to complete
the new roster.
Recorded in Munich
in less than a month,
the album was
overseen by
rock producer
and engineer
Martin Birch.
The band was
originally billed as
Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow
in the US,
but was titled simply
Rainbow
on this release.
In 1996 Cozy Powell
told Record Collector magazine
that much of the album
was recorded in
one or two takes,
with some
subsequent overdubs,
which explains why no
alternate or
demo versions exist,
just the original
or
rough mixes.
The album showpieces,
the eight-minute
and-26-second track
"Stargazer",
features
the Munich
Philharmonic Orchestra,
and originally had a
keyboard intro
as evidenced
on the 2011
Deluxe Edition's
"Rough Mix"
version.
Few of the
album tracks
made it into
the band's live set:
"Stargazer"
and
"Do You Close Your Eyes",
written prior to
the inaugural
US tour in
late 1975,
featured in all the
1975 and 1976 shows,
while
"A Light in the Black"
was dropped early
in the 1976 tour,
although it was
reintroduced into
the set during the
Japanese dates.
"Starstruck"
was played in
shortened form,
usually as part of
"Man on the Silver Mountain".
