One of my prized possessions is a signed vinyl copy of Live Evil. It's tough to watch your heroes pass on. For myself and many others who have been hit hard with this news, his voice was very much a part of being a teenage metal fan in the early eighties, while others first encountered his talent with those early Rainbow albums (Rising is my favorite). Nice tribute, sir.Sean Colemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17948887847361064889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32259972.post-6364266391713651162010-05-17T12:30:08.773-07:002010-05-17T12:30:08.773-07:00Great post, Isorski.

I never had a chance to see him live other than on TV so the cameras can play tricks on you.Dr. Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12761381841131597933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32259972.post-42621622389672247412010-05-17T08:01:05.677-07:002010-05-17T08:01:05.677-07:00There are very few singers who sound like no other...There are very few singers who sound like no other, and become the faceplate for their respective genres...Ronnie was one. I also had the pleasure of seeing him only once w/Heaven and Hell in San Jose several years back. A force of nature who gave it all for his fans and was completely idolized by names in metal who became much bigger....this one's gonna take a while to get over.Seanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03407390298942351451noreply@blogger.com
