KILLER tune. One of their best for sure.

If you look closely at the video for "Perfect Strangers", you can actually see Ritchie Blackmore smiling. Wink

Never before
I’m alone
Chasing shadows
Shield
Stormbringer

Maybe that
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

Burn
Shield
Anthem

Given I changed my response several times while I was typing, if you ask me tomorrow I'm sure I'd give some different answers....... Flight of the Rat, Fools, Sail Away, The Mule......
