"ritchie on this album made a great work and i think it's one
of the best rainbow's albums ever,but unfortunately he change his
style after that album,i think it would be better for ritchie
to back into his old style(HARD ROCK),Stranger In Us All remains
one of the greatest rock albums ever."

A great end to Rainbow

"With Ritchie running off to do the Blackmore's Night project ( hey Candice is a lot better looking than Doogie) this Rainbow album never really got the attention it deserved. Arguably the best Rainbow album since the Dio days, this is a great collection of tunes. Once you settle into Doogie voice, takes a track or so, then you can kick back and listen to Ritchie at his stratocaster best. Many of the songs were written by Candice, so the medieval sound is there, much as it was with RJD."

Shockingly good

"I read the review that said it was the best Rainbow cd since Dio left and thought, "Whatever." Nonetheless, I was curious enough to buy it when I found it on e-bay, and I'm glad I did. This sounds like classic Joe Lynn Turner era Rainbow, except it's more consistent. There are no bad songs here. Some of the riffs sound reminiscent of songs from Rainbow's past, but that's the closest thing to criticism that I can come up with for this disc. The production is great, the performances are solid, and Blackmore's playing is as good as it's ever been. I think it really is the best Rainbow album since Dio left. In short, this is not just for Rainbow "completists" -- this is a required purchase for any fan of Rainbow or Ritchie Blackmore."
