From the album "Down to Earth.”
Released August 1979

Bass Cover Notes

The tab is good, but not precise in bars 59-69. I improvised this part and added some fills…it was fun to do.

By the way, the third note in BAR 60 is an A (not a G); and again, in BAR 64. That’s what I felt sounded best.

As you can tell I also added in the verse.

I saw RB Rainbow live at the Palladium in NYC 8/24/78.

The Bassist-Roger Glover
Basically, a legend for me, one I’ve always just enjoyed listening to endlessly.

As a member of Deep Purple, Glover was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in April 2016

Roger Glover played Fender Precision, Fender Mustang and Rickenbacker 4001 basses during his early years with Deep Purple

Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow
(also known as Rainbow or Blackmore's Rainbow) are a British rock supergroup, formed in London and Los Angeles in 1975 by former Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore.

The band name was inspired by the Rainbow Bar and Grill in West Hollywood, California.

Many lineup changes followed and in 1979—singer Graham Bonnet, keyboardist Don Airey and then-former Deep Purple bassist Roger Glover all joined—and this line-up gave the band their commercial breakthrough with the single "Since You Been Gone"

The Song
written by former Argent guitarist Russ Ballard and covered by Rainbow in 1979 and released as a single from their album Down to Earth.
