Biography…制作中 Personal Opinion Ritchie Blackmoreは才能を見いだし、それをひきだす天才プロデューサーだ！特にVocalを見いだす能力はすごい！ Deep Purple時代のDavid Coverdaleをはじめ、Ronnie James Dio、Graham Bonnet、Joe Lynn Turner、最近ではDoogie White、Candice Night！なんと多くの才能を世に送り出したことか… もちろん作曲家、ギターリストとしての音楽家の才能もRitchieは超一流だ！ 彼を理解してないファンはDeep Purpleの黄金の第２期が最高だと騒ぐけど、それはDeep Purpleのファンであって、Ritchie Blackmoreを本質的に理解してないと思う。誰だって過去が最高だなんて嫌だよね(^^; やっぱり彼の才能の本領発揮はRainbowだよね(^^) しかも、私はJoe Lynn Turnerの加入した第３期が好きなのだ。Ritchieもそうだろう。その後の関係が続いていることをみてもわかる。 突然、Deep PurpleをやめたRitchie Blackmore！アルバムごとにファンを裏切り続けるRitchie Blackmore！天才は同じところに留まらない。これからも彼は変化し続けるに違いないと私は信じてる(^^) Links The Ritchie Blackmore Offical Web Site Raimbow Rising
