How many times has this Rainbow original been covered by metal bands of the 80's?

I was listening to the song today and thought about it...

The ones that I can think of off the top of my head are:

Heathen
Liege Lord
ADX

Any others come to mind?

You forgot COMMANDER in their 1987 LP.

Primal Fear also covered it, but that was in the '90s.

this topic reminds me of the great Ronnie James Dio tribute released by SPV (i think) it has good rainbow covers in there

I had a chance to listen to Holy Dio (that tribute album) and to me it was mediocre at best. Some of the covers were even awful
