Deep Purple & Dio - Rainbow in the Dark - Live 2000

[@xaviboldu2752]

Grande Dio y grandes los Purple

[@brendantoungate8287]

Given Dio's history with Purple dating back to when Elf was opening for Purple and Roger Glover and Ian Paice producing Elf's first record, this must've been amazing for Ronnie!

[@danielburton]

1:30 both legends Jon Lord and Ronnie James Dio... R.I.P. masters!

[@kennethmoh9042]

DIO and Lord. You will be remembered.

[@JokersWild70]

Man, I miss RJD. He was the consummate professional performer, loved his fans, and a voice that was out of this world. God needed someone to show him how to sing metal, I guess. He couldnt have chosen anyone better.

[@markbirchette8740]

I saw this tour here in Utah, U.S.A. It was Deep Purple, DIO and the Scorpions. One of the best combined tours I've ever seen. Stellar. ✌R.I.H. Rock In Heaven Ronnie and Jimmy.

[@brendantoungate8287]

RIH to Jon Lord as well.

[@OsmarCaco]

DIO is the one that best represents the rock'n roll voice and energy .

[@joehahn8817]

I agree, unfortunately Purple wasn't playing with the same energy as Ronnie was.

[@kenkyukai96]

Fuck! first time I've seen this. Thanks for posting. As a big Dio fan seeing him with Purple as his band, and that is said in the utmost respect, is a fuckin combination of legendary proportions. Also seeing Steve Morse rip it up made my day even better. Respect and stay safe. Graham, UK

[@criscupp3817]

Tuve el privilegio de ver este mismo concierto en Buenos Aires en el Estadio Luna Park junto a la Sinfonica Nacional ... DIO hizo explotar el lugar .....

[@counterjabs]

Would have loved to have a complete album of new material with Deep Purple and Dio on vox.

[@MarislavaBermann]

I like the way Dio was standing so calmly and then made first notes so strong without any preparation.

[@ADDISON857]

Rainbow in the dark🌈Ronnie you are the Rainbow in my Heart🥰one presence of eternity , we thank YOU so much 🔥

[@SilverTounge85]

Steve is bloody brilliant as always. Really does a great job on this song.

[@mityaypolov6118]

Земля пухом Дио! Классный был вокалист!

[@HereticJudgment]

Ronnie, Jon, we miss you...

[@LucasWeissenborn]

Deep Purple with Dio - This is maybe the best Rock-Band ever!! Rest in Peace Ronnie and Jon

[@abdelhakdjerroud-u8j]

With black sabbath also it is somthing else

[@thiagosa2678]

Dio + Deep Purple = The best combination Ever !!!!

[@matthewh.9544]

Yes mate, it's called Rainbow... 😅😅

[@tieukhavu8832]

Purple Rainbow. Roger also played with Ritchie on the Rainbows "Difficult to Cure", on which also he did the production.

[@peliculiar]

@@tieukhavu8832 Roger Glover played bass and produced four Rainbow albums: Down to Earth (1979), Difficult to Cure (1981), Straight Between the Eyes (1982) and Bent Out of Shape (1983).

[@edmonddp]

Dio, Blackmore, Lord, Powell (Paice is the best but not for Rainbow) and Glover. I wand to die.

[@MyEnemy]

He was pushing 60 and could still peel the steel off the girders in that stadium. Most rock singers are struggling by the time they're 40. DIO is Legend.

[@carlosf.santos8843]

One of the best voices ever !!!!!

[@WinstonsBogey]

THE Best voice EVER..

[@notsoaveragejoe2039]

Not that great of a voice? Are you insane?! Listen to As Long as Its Not About Love or Stargazer and then tell me he didn't have a great voice.

[@eitkoml]

He was such a great singer that this video showed him on one of his bad days.

[@dylanzrim1011]

asdfghjkl well it’s not even really his band. Wasn’t this a tribute show?

[@13balthus1969]

great band cool version ronnie just perfect and the guitar solo is very good in my opinion

[@dolphin8077]

Dio and Purple. What a combo🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥

[@deeppurple123456]

Ritchie and Steve are both amazing guitar players with different styles. Don't discuss who's better, both are stunning guitar players and my biggest influences!

[@ericcampbell6370]

If there's a Rock and Roll Heaven, the All-star Band should be Ronnie, Jon Lord, Randy Rhoads, Cozy Powell and Gary Thain.

[@GS-to9oe]

Solid line up

[@tieukhavu8832]

And Lemmy Kilmister, Chuck Berry and Elvis as well

[@kraminoss9148]

And Chuck Schuldiner!!

[@เวสารัชศรีสําราญ-ฦ9อ]

❤❤yes

[@danielhoehrpiano]

I remember this show in Dortmund -- I was there. Absolutely superb.

[@utooberblooper]

i saw Ronnie no less than 5 times and he never failed to impress, he could captivate 10s of thousands of people and memorize them.

[@viixisplayplace2390]

+trillriff-axegrinder I think you meant "mesmerize" ;-) and I agree!

[@pedrobordini913]

+Giannhs “darkcraft96” Polygamatos here comes the kid saying the music is gonne nowdays

[@dexterdog717]

Wow. To be able to MEMORIZE thousands of people...

[@LEEFORDJAGG]

Thank you to whoever filmed this rare happening. For fans.. the audio is acceptable but if RJD’s bio-pic comes out in the near future and a superior audio could be found, that would seem appropriate. Lots of history between RJD and Deep Purple.

[@agustinportalo8974]

A rainbow in the dark, always Dio always Deep Purple. Thanks for the video.

[@Tevashov]

Revisiting my playlists. Majestic. Great musicianship.

[@GenXMetal_Head]

DIO is the only musician that can sing about rainbows and still be considered a bad ass !!!!

[@martinmontes8165]

Tuve la suerte y el placer de encontrarme con esa sorpresa, en el año 2000 en bs As Argentina

[@MercedesBenzEnthusiastChannel]

Awesome! Thanks!

[@jamesigou7444]

Cool. Jon Lord is still with them for this. Has to be one of my favorite DP lineups.

[@magistersteveperkins]

Somewhere in a parallel universe a commercial is coming on TV advertising, “Experience Jon Lord and Ronnie James Dio together again on their new album Deep Dio. Order today from K-TEL on two records, two cassettes, or two 8-track tapes.”

[@mrkarno]

Magic! Dio and Deep Purple!

[@killyou45]

I really like the way they play that G an octave higher. It gives the riff an upbeat, fun vibe. A neat version of the original, no doubt.

[@dylanzrim1011]

killyou45 just makes it sound like van halen

[@EC1000]

this is really good. purple sound great on this. steve morse's solo was really very much his own thing but fit the song perfectly. and of course, ronnie is great as always.

[@PaulaPierreCastell]

Que geniooooos !!!!! DIO Y DEEP PURPLE!!!! :)

[@niklash8242]

The voice that could fill any stadium...

[@CarineCD]

see him twice and always remember how he makes me feels during this song..in heaven

[@PietroRumenta]

It's fantastic to speak finally to someone who knows about music like you. I didn't read all of wedge173's comments, I meant he was right saying Blackmore was a legend, while I don' know what else he was saying before. You know what: I guess Morse is that kind of musician who needs to be listened when playing his own stuff to really understand his ability and versatility. I love both Geavy Metal and Hard Rock, and I grew up with Classical Music; maybe that's why I love Blackmore

[@fear666dark]

I'm crying now, thank you, thank you god bless you ronnie

[@dulischewski1]

STILL GREAT VOICE --BEST VOICE NEVER DIE

[@MetalMike87]

Makes me Shiver!

[@patriciodiaz1022]

[@Templarofsteel18]

Just listening to this gives me shivers, R.I.P Ronnie James Dio THE true metal god and master, you will never be forgotten

[@subarackfunck]

[@jimmyandersson59]

Wow! Didn't know about this concert. Cool!!

[@S.Innuendo]

Einfach so unfassbar schön. D.I.O. ist ein absolutes Juwel gewesen

[@Gingergryphon]

Ronnie up there onstage with his hero - Roger Glover - brought all kinds of energy to his performance. He really reached down and opened up on this one. A treat to watch! :)

[@dirlanebelforth6992]

Melhor vocalista que passou no planeta 😊

PERFECT version of I Surrender broadcast over the air, stolen but prized.... Turner also does consumate version of Loves No Friend

[@JasonJamesHatch]

blacky T It’s on Apple Music

[@JasonJamesHatch]

blacky T or iTunes as I guess it is referred to by most folks

[@AisJais]

66 dislikers? What's wrong with the world today?

[@leftjabrighthook]

It's the fact its cell phone recording video from a crappy TV, instead of a direct digital feed.

[@arimitrani]

They use bad drugs

[@theaxis2000]

Richie Blackmore has 66 youtube accounts?

[@rayar66]

Fair enough, I also put little faith into any of the top 100 lists because different people have different tastes in music but you still can't deny that Morse is one hell of a Guitar player. My list would include Ritchie Blackmore, Steve Morse, Vivian Campbell, John Norum, and Cem Koksal just to name a few.
