A two-fer from Rainbow this week, each featuring one of my faves on vocals:
First up is "Stone Cold" with Joe Lynn Turner on vocals. This dude has such a sweet voice. So mellow, but he can totally own. See the Malmsteen "Heaven Tonight" clip I posted previously. Should come as no surprise, since the band was half Deep Purple, but this song kinda has Deep Purple written all over it. The big huge organ chords in the pre-chorus and the big vocals sounds VERY DP-ish.

Technically, no, it's not a Rainbow song, and the clip I've selected isn't even Rainbow, it's Alcatrazz, featuring Graham Bonnet and a very young Steve Vai. Rainbow, however, had the most popular cover of this song of all the different bands who've covered it and Grahm Bonnet used to be in Rainbow, so it's close enough. I am figuring the audio probably came direct from the soundboard mix, as when he holds the mic to the audience, you hear nothing but the background singers. Enjoy!
