It's a bit tough seeing Ritchie not being the best guitarist in the freakin world, but you can still hear glimpses of the past glory. Plus, it is always an honor watching him. An absolute genius.

Of course the singer is amazing, you can not duplicate Dio's voice effectively without being extremely talented and unique or you'll just sound embarrassing and this singer did an excellent job with a very hard song for even Dio to do live in his peak years but of course did but it's a vocal chord nightmare and a testament to the great Dio 🤘🏼❤
Ritchie Blackmore might not have the fire inside himself to play the guitar like he used to, but I am still happy that he came back to rock music after almost twenty years since he stopped playing Rock music. He has given us so many years of phenomenal performances in the past and the music he has created is some of the most incredible music ever made in my opinion. He didn't even reform Rainbow because he needed the money. He did it for the fans and to have some fun. I know many fans are not happy with this version of Rainbow, but considering the music that has come out in the last twenty years this is Phenomenal. I bought both Memories In Rock 1 and 2 live albums, and I also bought the Live In Birmingham 2016 album. I enjoy listening to all three live albums because it has a mix of both Rainbow and Deep Purple songs. The lead singer Ronnie Romero was a great choice and he did a great job.
Let's face it - the fans were not gonna be happy with anything Blackmore puts together these days. They never forgave him for Blackmore's Night - which is unfortunate. They're a magical band regardless.
Tu compatriota debe 10 millones de pesos (casi 13.000 dólares) por no pagar la pensión de alimentos de su hijo. La mamá del niño trabaja vendiendo en ferias para poder darle sustento, mientras Ronnie se da la gran vida sin pagar nada.
@@bptmbptm Woow, una persona de esa calaña moral no puede ni debe cantar una canción tan épica, valiente y heroica como Stargazer... Debería de solucionar sus asuntos como un hombre, aunque no sé el contexto del asunto, pero ahí está mi opinión.
They didn't do the intro on the first tour and that indeed also bummed me out. But during the 2017 tour and 2018 he did do the intro as it's suppose to be played. But he also had a much larger drumkit for the 2017 and 2018 tours, with twin pedals and a double bass set. The drumkit he played on this tour was dreadful and sad to say the least.
For the record and to set facts straight. Cozy never played he full into live back in the day either. Another point here on people thinking the 2016 drum kitt was too small. Well what size kit do you think Ian Paice played for all of the classic Deep Purple Mk 2 years ?
The fact that he finally took the strat again is amazing for me. The rest is not so important, come on you are who writing a bull shit about his performance, this man is a legend! I don’t want to listen another youtube shredder who makes 1250 notes per second. I need this old and soulful stuff! God bless you Ritchie!
Ok, so you're gonna just ignore the fact that this particular performance of Blackmore fucking sucked? We clearly see in your comment that you're stupid, but deaf as well? Quite a combination.
The singer is FANTASTIC and Ritchie due to his health is limited but during the solo still has a MAGIC a FEELING that most GUITARRIST don't have .. nothing beats Rainbow 76 77 78 line ups but OK time passes by ..
LOL, Great among the greats, Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow a legendary band with this musical beauty and reference of Heavy Metal for and for all time, thanks for sharing this spectacular moment, Long live Rock & Roll !!
@Robert Jones - He is trying to milk his 1970s era music...when he could actually play great. His current stuff sucks. It’s been a long time since he’s done anything good. You know this to be true.
Jesus, the first minute into this and thought to myself "fucking hell that singer is doing an amazing Dio", then when he got to the line "now where do we gooooooooo". I knew this was going to be good.
Maybe people who are over 60 should just give up their heavy metal rock and roll used to be and just don't perform in public anymore!!.. is highly embarrassing to us fans!!.. I don't want to see their deterioration in front of our eyes, it is completely sad to watch!!. no more live public shows.. stay in your basement or your Mansion or your garage and play for yourself or your Grandma and Grandpa or your grandchildren.. leave us fans out of your dying life!!
Your comment doesn`t even deserve an anwser, your idiot! Why should a Icon like Ritchie Blackmore stop to play because a human like you don´t understand what´s Music? What have YOU done for the humanity? Even you idiots will be older some day. Shame on you!!!
Most people on 73 years old can't even lift the guitar and look what he is doing 5:50 .... maaan and Richie stll makes me shiver!!!! Outmost Respect and Respect and Respect!!!
Good on Ritchie for strapping on the Strat again. Lots of gripes listed in comments, but, we know Ritchie has pretty bad arthritis. So at any moment while playing he could find himself in pain. Thanks for showing us how it's done Ritchie. Glad you're there again.
I read a lot of comments concerning Richie's playing, saying that his playing has diminished with age. I disagree. It's not "age", but whether he is inspired. Richie is a very improvisational player, and rarely, if ever, plays solos as originally recorded. When he's inspired, Richie plays masterpieces. If he's not in the mood, he doesn't.
Depends on what kind of music you like to listen to. This shit is stuff that my husband likes (LedZ being his fave.) But I ADORE the Celtic music with Candice. And there you have it.
This song is one of my favorites. I didn't think any after Dio would be able to get close to him, but Romero does. There is no emotion 45 years ago in the group but time is running and no one is young. Poor performance by Richie. Years do not forgive. However, the legend Ritchie Blackmore will always remain. I've always liked the fantasy of playing a guitar. I love the guitar because of it. Two or three generations of guitarists are inspired by it. Rock is alive to guitarists like Richie.
Romero is a great Dio clone (not as good as the original though)... but this band is asleep. I had the great fortune to see Rainbow play this tune on the Rising tour back in 1976 at the Beacon Theater... Cozy was a monster. The band was on fire. And Ritchie was transcendent... by comparison this is tough to watch... still love Ritchie though.. As far as I'm concerned he can do whatever he want's. He doesn't owe anybody anything. The man carved Rock and Roll history. The world is better for it.
Blackmore is one of the main pillars of contemporary guitar, he’s awesome. I wouldn’t call Romero a dio clone tho, his career just started taking off a few years back there’s a lot more of him to come I’m sure. Dio in my opinión was at his peak with rainbow and the first two solo albums, after that he fell short. He sure is a legend but he’s way too overrated. But that’s just my opinion. Would have love to see rainbow back in their prime tho.
@@josecollado4254 I don't see that "Dio is way too overrated" I really think he didn't got the acknowledgement he deserved, for most of his "fans" Dio is just a MetalGod
Singer was great ....... come on people Ritchie is in his 70s both of my grandfathers died in their 60s I give him credit for being on stage with rainbow
Rainbow isn't quite what it used to be, but Ritchie is 73 years old after all so i guess what did i expect. Rhythm section is lacking serious punch and Ritchie's playing is really sloppy and he forgot to turn on the gain pedal. Taking bunch of young musicians worked for him in the 90's Rainbow lineup, but this time i think ritchie himself might be the weakest link. Props for Ronnie Romero, he does pretty incredible job here.
I mean there is not much left to say about Ritchie and at the end of the day not many people are in capacity to judge such Devine skills but worth mentioning the frontman's vocals. Very well executed, indeed!
I saw them at the O2 in 2017. I do wonder if he'd been better to hire "known" musicians or even some ex-Rainbow members for this version of the band, but who knows.. He is a rather enigmatic person, I recall him saying that he wouldn't have reunited with Deep Purple if it was to purely perform "nostalgia", yet this is what he is now doing with "Rainbow". I'm still a fan, but just don't believe everything he does is brilliant.
Cant stand a lot of the comments here. Ritchie is 73 years old; you really expect him to play at the same speed he did back in the 70s? this was still an awesome performance and I would still love seeing it live.
73 years! Other man at this age are only watching TV and are drinking beer! Respect to one of the greatest composer and guitar player!
Not anymore
@fiese friesin - Are you talking about the old fat guy in a wig?
Kinda bummed that he didn't sing the "My eyes are bleeding!" part. That to me is the perfect vocal climax of the song.
And I'm hopelessly insane!
He seems to have forgotten the words...
Totally agree! Watched the whole video anticipating that part. “My eyes are bleeding
And my heart is leaving here”
Even Dio don't sung that part live
un grande

One of the best Stargazers I've heard. I miss this line-up. The solo is perfect and full of emotion. Ronnie really did Ronnie justice. Encore! 🙂🙃
I can’t believe the drummer forgot one of the most all time great drum intros by the late great cozy Powell that’s a shame
They didn't do the intro on the first tour and that indeed also bummed me out. But during the 2017 tour and 2018 he did do the intro as it's suppose to be played.
But he also had a much larger drumkit for the 2017 and 2018 tours, with twin pedals and a double bass set. The drumkit he played on this tour was dreadful and sad to say the least.
He did it on Russian gigs in 2018 \m/ Check for my channel.
Laaaaame
He did not forget it. The old fat guy in a wig with the guitar told him not to play the intro

Weird, why singer does literally nailing Ronnie James Dio?
You, probably never listen Ron Dio preforming this song.
You should look up what "literally" means lmao
@Harry Fishnuts Hes really good. Very Very close to DIO. but not quite there i think.
Yes he fuckin did!!!
the singer is actually fucking incredbly good!!! holy fucking christ!!
Powerful interpretation and Blackmore great as always.
Powerful singer. Guy in the background with the guitar and wig looks a bit like Richie Blackmore.
Lol

Is it really Blackmore.....this guy just can't play... ;-)
(And that wig makes it even more suspicious... i think..)
Looks Like A.Lame Episode of AMERICAN IDOL!

God damn Ronnie Romero is the man! Hats off for pulling this off like that!
Holy smokes the singer's carrying the entire band on his back.
Well - he is covering Ronnie James Dio - and that's what Dio was able to do despite his size. Listen to Dio singing this song .-)

I love it you are not going to hear the young aggressive Ritchie on the strat but at his age he's still remarkable
Ritchie plays as a man of 73...with the mood and sensibility of a man of 73 and thats all
Why do you expect him playing as he was 25?.... He can't any more

It's sad to see these guitar heroes get old. But he's still so good !!
This songs ranks up high in the list of Hard Rock classics. I dare any aspiring singer to pull it off like Romero did here. What a performance!
The singer gives a stellar performance , Ritchie just wants to go home.
This song is epic, singer did an amazing job!
Dude, that singer kills it! Just amazing!
But there was only person who could really sing this song.
Perfect song. maybe most perfect song ever written. Singer did really amazing. But god man Dio we miss you...
Romero para mim um dos melhores vocais na atualidade.
Who is he ??? Where did he come from?
Sounds like a gig on a Friday night down the Dog and Duck.😝😝
Whoa! What a singer!!!
Ronnie Romelo is good singer.!☺️👍️
Great vocals!!
Banda maravilhosa, Blackmore fantástico,vocal muito bom,stargeiser som que eternizou o Dio melhor vocalista de todos os tempos!
Com cordo
Дио, может и великий,но с каждого утюга слышать Дио было невыносимо. А этот парень очень классный!
Holy Cow that dude can sing!!
After 20 years in BN, Ritchie should have faded off into the sunset with his acoustic guitar in hand and his strat in our memories.
Most people on 73 years old can't even lift the guitar and look what he is doing 5:50 .... maaan and Richie stll makes me shiver!!!! Outmost Respect and Respect and Respect!!!
And most people said he is a bad person and don't care for fans..... he is doing this for Rainbow fans!
Excelente versión de un tremendo tema, además es una gran alegría y me produce mucho orgullo escuchar a mi compatriota Ronald Romero, maravilloso!!!!!
Increíble voz !! La esencia de Dio se siente . Muy buena rola !!

Blackmore still has the best Strat sound to this day. This singer could have played Freddie Mercury in the new Queen movie and sang the parts too.
Steve, you´re drunk, go to bed.
ye
but he doesn’t have big toothes
I thought Marc Martel proved more than adequate to sing Freddie Mercury's parts for the movie.
exelente una banda brutal increíble requinto sublime espectacular gracias x compartir exelente musica
After listening to it a few more times its actually quite emotional, I put it through my big stereo and it sounds really really good
Ronnie Romero is awesome
Blackmore had to bring an imitator with the same first name that mimics Dios mannerisms. You can’t disrespect his memory any further.
Glad I got too see richie in his hey days with purple
Finally I can play guitar like Ritchie Blackmore!
Ritchie Blackmore is Alive & Well :-) ROCK ON!!!!!!!
