    Catch the Rainbow

    Catch the rainbow. Lovely bedtime song. May not be the rocking song you are looking for op. So good. Rip RJD. See you there someday.

    I’ve listened to Southern Cross about 8 times today.  Thank you.

    I guess I’ve just never realized how legit RJD was.  The thing that turns me off about a lot of metal is how a lot of bands try to achieve this level of mystique but just fall short in a spinal tap kinda way.  But Dio is pretty convincing, like if I heard this when I was a little kid it might have scared me.

    I hear you. I never really thought of that. It's a fine line and can be seen as overly theatrical.

    Yep. Those epic songs tell quite a story. lots of keys and guitar jams to take up time. I'm ready to go fight a knight and takeover the castle now.
    Give those tunes a listen if you don't know them yet.
