Rainbow ‎– Difficult To Cure. Label: Polydor ‎– 547 365-2. Series: The Rainbow Remasters –. Format: CD, Album, Remastered. Country: UK & Europe. 9. Difficult To Cure (Beethoven's Ninth). Arranged By – Don Airey, Ritchie Blackmore, Roger GloverWritten-By – Traditional.

As it turns out, Turner is less hyperbolic than his predecessor, which fits the focused polish of Difficult to Cure. Where Down to Earth was a streamlined version of early Rainbow, Difficult to Cure is a shot at crossover. Problem is, the band never comes up with the right crossover songs. Russ Ballard's "I Surrender" comes close, but much of the record is fairly undistinguished, riding on strident melodies and big riffs that are never quite memorable. It's all given a contemporary sheen, with plenty of studio gloss that now instantly evokes the early '80s.
