Stranger in Us All is a 1995 album by the reformed Rainbow. Ritchie Blackmore put together a new version of Rainbow with little-known musicians in 1994. It was originally intended to be his solo album, but due to the label BMG pressures, the record was billed as Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow. This line-up only released the one album before Blackmore decided to pursue different musical styles and formed Blackmore's Night with his companion Candice Night. As such, this album marks Blackmore's final hard rock and roll recordings (to date.)
Released in the post-grunge mid '90s, Stranger in Us All achieved a modest success, particularly in Europe.
Much of the album featured in the live concert sets. Drummer John O'Reilly was replaced for the tour, by the returning Chuck Burgi. John Miceli joined the band for the US shows, from February to May 1997, plus one in Denmark.
The album takes its name from a line in the song "Black Masquerade".
A few songs off the album were played live by Over the Rainbow in 2008 and 2009, as the line-up of the band featured Greg Smith and Paul Morris, who played in Rainbow in 1995.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shockingly good,
I read the review that said it was the best Rainbow cd since Dio left and thought, "Whatever." Nonetheless, I was curious enough to buy it when I found it on e-bay, and I'm glad I did. This sounds like classic Joe Lynn Turner era Rainbow, except it's more consistent. There are no bad songs here. Some of the riffs sound reminiscent of songs from Rainbow's past, but that's the closest thing to criticism that I can come up with for this disc. The production is great, the performances are solid, and Blackmore's playing is as good as it's ever been. I think it really is the best Rainbow album since Dio left. In short, this is not just for Rainbow "completists" -- this is a required purchase for any fan of Rainbow or Ritchie Blackmore.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rainbow Rise Again,
It's difficult to believe this album was not critically acclaimed, I could only give it 5 stars but it's worth 10.

I would suggest that the reviewer named A Customer treats him/herself to a new sound system

In my opinion it's the best Rainbow album since Rising.. Doogie White is like a cross between Graham Bonnet and Joe Lynn Turner..another example of Ritchie's ability to spot great talent.

This is just a brilliant rock album..what are you waiting for?
Order it now, you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars How did I miss this one?
I clearly took my eye off the ball a few years ago because this album came and went and crept completely under my radar. I stumbled upon it during an hour of boredom when I decided to browse my way through Amazon and did a random search on Ritchie Blackmore. Stranger In Us All is fantastic and probably their best offering since the towering epic Rainbow Rising. Ritchie Blackmore was never afraid to change the personnel in his bands and the total clear out he had for this album could have back-fired badly .... but the maestro in the wide brimmed hat hasn't let us down. Ok so Doogie White is no Dio .... but who is, even Graham Bonnet and the excellent Jo Lynn Turner struggled to fill that particular pair of shoes. This album starts with a high energy thumper of a track and never lets up all the way through. Hunting Humans is a particularly good track in a very new style for Blackmore - it wouldn't sound out of place on an Ozzy album. My particular favourite is the final track.... the newly penned lyrics laid over their old song Still I'm Sad (which is also given a damn good burst of adrenaline too) is a steering wheel tapping masterpeice and a cracker to close the album with. Its been in my car for almost 6 months now ... I love it to the point I can't remember the last time I played Difficult To Cure. If anyone tells you this album is poor .... question whether they have actually sat down and listened to it. Its about as good a Rainbow album you can get without Dio ... nuff said

5.0 out of 5 stars hidden gem,
being a big fan of dio era rainbow,read some reviews of this album and took a chance on it,glad i did,it is superb,if like me your a dio fan then you will love this album,forget since "you've been gone" "i surrender" etc,this is the buisiness,"hall of the mountain king" and the reworking of "still i'm sad" are the gems,excellent.
