A masterpiece by Rainbow that lets you enjoy pop and catchy rock.
Released in 1981, it reached number 3 on the charts in the UK.
Graham Bonnet left the band and Joe Lynn Turner joined as the new vocalist. The band took a more pop direction, and the single "I Surrender" made it into the top 10 in the US. The album was also a big hit. "Spotlight Kid" is reminiscent of "Highway Star." "Magic" and "Can't Happen Here" are also great songs. Produced by Roger Glover.
