Former The Rainbow musicians Joe Lynn Turner, Tony Kerry, Bobby Rondinelli and Greg Smith are planning to create the joint music project together with Ritchie Blackmore’s son Jurgen (Ritchie Blackmore is the legendary founder of Deep Purple). This new band is going to be called Over The Rainbow, said Blabbermouth.net. Kerry used to participate in The Rainbow during 1975–1978 period, Turner and Rondinelli have joined it in 1980. Smith was the latest guy who played in the band from 1994 to 1997. Over The Rainbow project shall include Turner as a vocalist, Kerry as a keyboardist, Rondinelli as a drummer, Smith as a bassist, and Blackmore Jr. as a guitarist. The last one has agreed to join a group after understanding the impact it had on music fans. The whole idea of reunion changed his mind. Right after The Rainbow fell apart in 1997 all these musicians keep on hearing numerous wishes to make it going again. Also, musicians are designing the world tour and possibly will start making another record. Reunions are great, especially when they’re including new people from the younger generation. Blackmore Jr. perfectly represents this new generation, plus he continues his father’s task by playing rock n’ roll.
