RAINBOW - Difficult to Cure Polydor Records - PD-1-6316 with Original 'Picture' & 'Lyrics' Sleeve ======================= (See Pictures for VG+ to EX condition) Difficult to Cure is the fifth
studio album by the British hard rock band Rainbow, released in 1981. The album marked the further
commercialization of the band's sound, with Ritchie Blackmore once
describing at the time his appreciation of the band Foreigner. It
became the band's highest-charting album on the UK Albums Chart, where it
peaked at number three. The album material was started with singer Graham
Bonnet still in the band, getting as far as recording an early version of
"I Surrender", before Bonnet left the band due to his dissatisfaction
over the material, and numerous fallouts with Blackmore. American singer Joe
Lynn Turner, formerly of Fandango was recruited and sang over already
completed musical tracks. Turner stated that, because of this, he was singing
in higher keys than he would do normally (and would do subsequently).
Rainbow (also known as Ritchie
Blackmore's Rainbow or Blackmore's Rainbow) are a British rock supergroup band,
based in Hertford, England and formed in 1975 by guitarist Ritchie
Blackmore. They were originally established with Ronnie James Dio's
American rock band Elf, but after their self-titled debut album,
Blackmore fired the backing members and continued with Dio. Rainbow recorded
two more studio albums with Dio—Rising (1976) and Long Live Rock 'n'
Roll (1978)—before he left the band to join Black Sabbath in
1979.
