I used to love this, they used to play it on the ABC all the time when I was little.
Also love Ronnie James Dio - not many people know the name ( in my circles anyway ). My parents had a few "Rainbow" albums. Fond memories.

I too used to watch this when they played it on the ABC.
It's wonderfully "trippy" - and the fact that Ronnie sings it adds to the coolness of it. :)
