1. Dio was an American heavy metal band formed in 1982 and led by vocalist Ronnie James Dio. Dio left Black Sabbath with intentions to form a new band with fellow former Black Sabbath drummer Vinny Appice. The name Dio was chosen because it made sense from a commercial standpoint, as the name was already well known at that time. The band released ten studio albums and had numerous lineup changes over the years, with Dio himself being the only constant member. Guitarists included Vivian Campbell, Craig Goldy, Doug Aldrich, Warren DeMartini, Tracy G, Jake E. Lee and Rowan Robertson. The band dissolved in 2010 when Ronnie James Dio died of stomach cancer at the age of 67. Dio has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide.

Ronnie is by far one of the greatest singers of all time. I’ve been listening to Ronnie when I was about 12. I’m 54 and still listening to DIO as much as I can. R.I.P. my brother ❤

We are the luckiest generation. I am 55, We had a new and kick ass album dropping every six months. Dio, Maiden, Priest, Megadeth, Metallica, Overkill, Anthrax, Scorps, VH, Queensryche, and the list keeps on going!! Denim, leather, long hair driving American muscle cars with killer stereo systems blasting full out. And the chicks were hot as hell. The keg parties, concerts, etc. We were an Army!
ED RAIN
the best metal singer of all time. He was also a gentleman. He sang with his heart and soul. Rest in peace. It was the sound of my youth. God bless Dio, forever.

Seen Ronnie 4x solo and 1x with Sabbath...My #1 metal front man, the power in which he sang was just incredible! LLRJD!!!
David Jones
I saw Dio twice in Sabbath, and several times solo. Without a doubt the greatest metal singer and frontman in history. I was a huge fan since Rainbow. This is a great show. I've never seen a bad performance by him in any band. Such a loss...RIP Ronnie.
Tim Morin
Me too. 100 % agree.
