Album Review Crew Episode 25 "Down To Earth"

156 min • 17 november 2021

On the 25th Episode of the Album Review Crew of Shout It Out Loudcast, Tom, Zeus & Sonny review the 1979 album by Rainbow, "Down To Earth." With Ronnie James Dio out of Rainbow, Guitar God, Ritchie Blackmore brings in Graham Bonnet to handle the vocals on this, his one and only album with Rainbow. The band also brought in old friend, Roger Glover from Deep Purple to produce the album, however Roger ends up writing the lyrics and joining the band as its new bassist. ARC favorite, Don Airey joins as well as the keyboard player. The sole remaining Rainbow member on the album was legendary drummer, Cozy Powell.

This forgotten Rainbow album was sandwiched between three Dio led Rainbow albums and three Joe Lynn Turner led Rainbow albums. The album seemed to stray away from the familiar Rainbow sound and lyrics into a more commercial sound, especially with its two singles, All Night Long and their biggest hit, Since You Been Gone.

This was Zeus' pick and as usual the guys breakdown the tracks and rank the songs. The boys then rank the album and album cover against the previous 23 albums reviewed on the Album Review Crew Episodes.

So don't cut your hair, lose the sunglasses and grab your favorite tube top and let's start Makin' Love ..... Oooooooooo
