Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow (1975) is the first album released by Rainbow. "Black Sheep of the Family" was a cover of an old Quatermass song, "Still I'm Sad" a cover of a Yardbirds track. Despite the only moderate chart success this album provided to the band, many musicians consider this album to be one of hard rock's finest moments. Backing singer Shoshana Feinstein was Blackmore's girlfriend at the time.
