There is some doubt whether Richey actually wrote these lyrics. Rumours has it that the 'long-ignored book of Richey's lyrics' was a publicity stunt, and the lyrics were purposefully peppered with 1980s & 1990s references for verisimilitude. |

| Jethro Tull – Rainbow Blues Lyrics
| 15 years ago

This is far more direct. Anderson is singing about Jethro Tull being upstaged by Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow at a gig. Blackmore, it should be noted, always wanted to be the Tull guitarist, but Martin Barre was a) a better guitarist b) had a smaller ego that wouldn't clash wish Anderson's and c) was well established within the band. Blackmore went on to cover this song with his awful Blackmore's Night band. |
