It just doesn't sound quite right.

I nearly forgot that part.
Yeah, when you hear the other vocalist on "RTSO" it's a little disorienting.

Graham Bonnett and Joe Lynn Turner were two of the singers for Rainbow. The original singer for Rainbow was Dio.

He kind of sidled in there at one point and was featured on a couple of DP releases. I think he's a badass singer (and a pretty good bass player too.)

I went to Bass pro shop and to my surprise they didn't have a single bass guitar.

Black Ice is pretty dry to me. This is one of those bands that makes you wonder where they'd be if Bon Scott hadn't died.
To me their best albums were between Dirty Deeds and Flick of the Switch, inclusively.
