Rainbow - May 8, 1980 Budokan, Tokyo Japan【LIVE】

From the 1980 Japan tour in which RAINBOW with Graham Bonnet came to Japan for the first time in two years with the famous album “DOWN TO EARTH“, here is the first day performance at Nippon Budokan in Tokyo. This was the first visit to Japan for Graham and Don Airey. Graham Bonnet’s performance deserves special mention here. Graham was extraordinary on this day. Some fans at the time said they could only hear Graham’s voice. That’s how tremendous he was. He also deserves credit for providing the Dio-era songs that were scattered throughout the set list along with the new Rainbow songs. His voice was different from Dio’s, and he was able to add his own spin to the songs. 0:00 The Land Of Hope And Glory 1:26 Countdown Intro. 2:27 Eyes Of The World 9:40 Love’s No Friend 17:50 Since You Been Gone 21:59 Over The Rainbow 23:05 Man On The Silver Mountain 27:12 Catch The Rainbow 39:20 Keyboards Intro.
