2016 saw the return of Rainbow with Memories In Rock: Live In Germany (our review). After years of a void Memories In Rock II marks the third release from Ritchie and the gang in two years. What this one provides is a brand new Rainbow song. Also included is a DVD full of interviews with the entire band including Mr. Blackmore. The set includes all the Rainbow classics delivered wonderfully by Ronnie Romero (vocals), Jens Johansson (keys), Bob Nouveau (bass), Dave Keith (drums) with Lady Lynn and Candice Night on backing vocals. With no full-scale touring in the United States, Rainbow fans are sure to want to get their hands on any material they can and this one will not disappoint.
