Another one from the "Radio Broadcast Series" that is very popular with fans. This time, the special program of RAINBOW from a music program broadcast around spring 1984 has been made into a record from the air check master, which can be said to be the best at the time. You can listen to the interview with Richie and Ronnie, known among enthusiasts as the German promotion kit "ON STAGE SPECIAL PROMO" of "ON STAGE", with Japanese translation! This sound source is a recording of the first broadcast from the "RAINBOW Shocking Heavy Metal" series that aired in the spring of 1984. The series follows the history of RAINBOW over four episodes, and this first episode features the time when Ronnie James Dio was a member. The first thing that plays when you play the disc is a commercial narrated by that famous cultural figure. This scene is captured with outstanding clarity and stability, and will convince the listener that "this is not an ordinary air check!" The main feature of the show is the LP that was produced for promotion at the time of the release of "ON STAGE". This is a mix of interviews with Richie and Ronnie that were conducted when RAINBOW was in Australia on the 1976 "RISING" tour, and edited takes from "ON STAGE". It is said that the sound source was originally produced on the assumption that it would be used on radio shows like this one, but among enthusiasts, the collector's item made from this LP is more famous, and it is nothing short of amazing to hear it being used on a radio show as it was originally intended, with quality that is comparable to a record. At the opening of the show, it is announced that "We will introduce you to a special record" and "It is not a commercially available record", and listeners at the time must have listened with excitement, wondering "What on earth is going to happen?". The record versions of "ON STAGE SPECIAL PROMO" that were once available did not include Japanese translations, but this broadcast is characterized by the fact that they are properly translated. Richie also talks about why he left DEEP PURPLE to form RAINBOW, his views and thoughts on Ronnie, and commented that he wrote "Mistreated" with "only guitars in mind." Ronnie answers questions about the composition and content of songs such as "16th Century Greensleeves" and "Starstruck." All fans interested in the band will be happy to understand Richie and Ronnie's comments in an accurate form. It is also noteworthy that the promo record is not played as is, but the order of the songs is changed and broadcast. Even those who know this promotional LP will be able to listen to it with a fresh feeling, as if they were listeners of the program at that time. The second half of the program aired the entire A-side of the album "RISING," followed by a closing preview of the next episode, "We will introduce the charm of RAINBOW from live performances including Japan performances." Unfortunately, "Still I'm Sad," which was included in the promotional LP, and the interview before it are not included, but this work will not only be a collector's item, but will undoubtedly be an important source of sound when verifying the band's history. Don't miss this opportunity to enjoy 65 minutes that are a must-listen for any RAINBOW fan! RAINBOW - BIG SPECIAL Rainbow's Impact Heavy Metal Vol.1 1.
