Bent out of shape.


Strange name, strange cover. Last studio record from Rainbow. Criminally underrated, this is true gem.

Though it is clear it does not follow the pattern from the first one, this one talks about love and it is a 'soft' record -does not talk about magic, dragons or is epic either-, if you want to say it this way. But for the music, it is A1 quality. I always loved the Turner-Blackmore team. Compositions were really fantastic.

Visions of artemis
Goddess of the moonlight
The spell remains unbroken
The lost and wrong now will begin the rite
of the fire dance


Cant let you go, street of dreams, the heavier firedance,
stranded, fool for the night...


I remember buying this lp soo long ago. That time you could not find it in cd.

10/10 classic status
