At the Rainbow

At the Rainbow is a 1973 live album by the band Focus. A studio album was initially slated for release, but it was shelved due to disagreements within the band. (An album compiled from the tapes of these sessions was later released with the title Ship of Memories.) At the Rainbow was released instead. Producer Mike Vernon is known to have mixed Live at the Rainbow for a quadraphonic release.
