Those of us who love and adore DIO, have said for years, "DIO in studio is amazing. DIO in live performance, even more amazing." The Man always gave 110%, always, even when unwell or tired from months on the road. The fans were of utmost importance to Ronnie, like family. His Voice is just astounding, all the nuances and tones, and plenty of coaches here on KZread have listened to Ronnie's Singing and just been blown away, especially when they realize Ronnie was in His forties in the 80's. Yeah. At about the time male singers' voices start losing power/strength and tone, and there was Ronnie, affectionately dubbed "Old Leather Lungs' by some, hammering out song after song. Part of why Ronnie's Voice was so powerful, has been determined that the formative years spent playing the trumpet, gave His lungs more strength than the average performer out there. Plus Ronnie was big on exercising, another reason why He could bounce all over the stage and not lose breath.

I tried to stay out of his way because I was "the help". He wouldn't have it. There was a genuinely decent man behind all that glitz.

The original is better. 3) The first recording by Dio was in 1958, but he only played bass. His first single as a vocalist was "An Angel Is Missing" by Ronnie and the Red Caps in 1961! Before the Beatles and Stones. And over 15 years before his breakthrough with Rainbow. You reacted to their song Stargazer. And yes, that debut song isn't remotely metal. 4) RIP Ronnie.

You want the live versions of the songs and you should know that he's done these over many years so the show changes. Alice Cooper pretty much started Shock Rock/Horror Rock. Black Sabbath also started at that time. Alice Cooper is the son of a Preacher and a devout Christian. Yet he does this hard rock horror show. He is an avid golfer who could play pro level, in his 70's now and still rocks, He's still got his voice too.

Ronnie is on his own level. He is so far ahead of any other singer in the Rock genre and it’s not even close and that includes Freddy Mercury. To understand that you have to listen to everything he’s done throughout his career. If you think of Ronnie Dio as just a heavy metal singer than you really don’t know who Ronnie Dio was. His career prior to Black Sabbath, which I consider his entry into the heavy metal genre as most of Rainbow was classic rock, was 22 years long and touched on damn near every genre of music you can imagine from Lounge music crooning to Doo Wop, to blues m, folk, honky tonk, pop to rock to prog rock. He could sing any genre and he sung better than most in all of those genres. Ironically, it was his ability to sing great regardless of genre that made him so unique. He was technically brilliant despite the fact he had no vocal training and he was extremely charismatic both on and off the stage and those two facts alone put him near the top of most people’s top vocalists list. The one thing he does better than anyone else is sing live. The single most difficult part of being a vocalist and should be the singe most important. NO autotune and believe it or not he NEVER warmed up either. It was all god given talent and incredible technique. God broke the mold after he created this guy.

I know you like the live versions for the energy and what not but this was not the greatest live performance. Yes, his voice is on point but this is his solo band. He was with Black Sabbath when this song was made and it's missing that Sabbath magic. Also, they didn't even do the pickup at the end, which is the best part of this song IMO. Check out the studio version sometime and you'll see what I mean. I always recommend the original version of a song for a first listen, so you can get a feel for it and then move on to live versions.

The 'sheets', with drawings on them...were drawings...fans had made. And Ronnie...being a nice guy, was the type of guy, who would, during performances...'show them off to the crowd'. Can you imagine...being a 13, or 17, year old kid...who took the time, to draw his favorite artist, on a huge sheet...get tickets to Ronnie's show....only to have Ronnie stop in the middle of his performance, and show the crowd the work the kid had done? It was just Ronnie's way of saying thank you, to whatever kid it was that took the time to do the work. Kid probably got so excited, telling all his friends at school the next day..."Ronnie James Dio, showed the crowd my drawing of him!" For all the heaviness in Ronnies music...he still, was just a regular guy, and a nice one at that. Just really nice of Ronnie, to take a moment during his show, to show a fan, he appreciated him/her. It was Ronnie James Dio...just being a nice guy. ☀️

Ahhh, Ronnie James Dio...one of the very best EVER! His voice was soooo amazing! And he wasn’t a big guy at all-but he had the pipes of a king!! I saw this tour back when I was in college and I have never forgotten the sound of Ronnie live!! He’s definitely one of my top 5 vocalists of all time! ❤️🎤
When he was a child he listened to opera, and he gets his breathing technique from his two hours a day of trumpet lessons when he was a child🤘
In 1981 a van load of us drove 5 hours one way to see Dio during the mob rules tour they were playing in Regina,Canada. His voice was unreal and the band was smokin best concert I ever saw they opened with The mob rules. I have spoken :-)
Those of us who love and adore DIO, have said for years, "DIO in studio is amazing. DIO in live performance, even more amazing." The Man always gave 110%, always, even when unwell or tired from months on the road. The fans were of utmost importance to Ronnie, like family. His Voice is just astounding, all the nuances and tones, and plenty of coaches here on KZread have listened to Ronnie's Singing and just been blown away, especially when they realize Ronnie was in His forties in the 80's. Yeah. At about the time male singers' voices start losing power/strength and tone, and there was Ronnie, affectionately dubbed "Old Leather Lungs' by some, hammering out song after song. Part of why Ronnie's Voice was so powerful, has been determined that the formative years spent playing the trumpet, gave His lungs more strength than the average performer out there. Plus Ronnie was big on exercising, another reason why He could bounce all over the stage and not lose breath.

The little man with the big voice! Dio was about 5'4" and the nicest celebrity I've ever met. I was a paramedic student and got a gig working one of his concerts in Traverse City, Michigan in 1992 or 93. I got a chance to meet him for a couple minutes before the show. I tried to stay out of his way because I was "the help". He wouldn't have it. There was a genuinely decent man behind all that glitz.
Ronnie James Dio had amazing vocal range, just like Freddie Mercury
The same voice behind Stargazer...
When asked what measures he took to warm up his voice before a show, Dio said "if you have to warm up, you ain't got it".

Before the Beatles and Stones. And over 15 years before his breakthrough with Rainbow. You reacted to their song Stargazer. And yes, that debut song isn't remotely metal. 4) RIP Ronnie.

I think Dio's #1 criteria for being a band member "When you play you have to own that Chit" I had the pleasure to see him in concert about a dozen times in the 80's and if I could go back I would do it all over again. One of the last great performers.

Ronnie is on his own level. He is so far ahead of any other singer in the Rock genre and it’s not even close and that includes Freddy Mercury. To understand that you have to listen to everything he’s done throughout his career. If you think of Ronnie Dio as just a heavy metal singer than you really don’t know who Ronnie Dio was. His career prior to Black Sabbath, which I consider his entry into the heavy metal genre as most of Rainbow was classic rock, was 22 years long and touched on damn near every genre of music you can imagine from Lounge music crooning to Doo Wop, to blues m, folk, honky tonk, pop to rock to prog rock. He could sing any genre and he sung better than most in all of those genres. Ironically, it was his ability to sing great regardless of genre that made him so unique. He was technically brilliant despite the fact he had no vocal training and he was extremely charismatic both on and off the stage and those two facts alone put him near the top of most people’s top vocalists list. The one thing he does better than anyone else is sing live. The single most difficult part of being a vocalist and should be the singe most important. NO autotune and believe it or not he NEVER warmed up either. It was all god given talent and incredible technique. God broke the mold after he created this guy.

The greatest and most powerfulest voice in all of metal. His solo days were awesome.i seen him with black Sabbath at the Summit in Houston Tx. He was at the same hospital as Zack was and around the same time. Battling cancer also. RIP,RJDIO.
People would draw banners and he would take them from the audience.and show a few .first one was him...on that note .Joe satriani taught the guitarist of metallica.also Steve via.and many other..cool #9.made of tears.summersong.please check out the teacher of killer guitarist..love watching from Chicago.please look into him.JOE SATRIANI.say hello if possible..
That voice out of a 5'4" tall man. You would never expect it.
How many artists stoped what they were doing to recieve a gift from a fan and then hold it up to show everybody like your grandma does to make you feel good? Love the guy.
That cloth image of Dio was a gift from a fan. The fans bring gifts to them.
I saw him live on the killing the dragon tour in the early 2000's. Dude's voice didnt get worse with age one bit. Couldn't believe it.
Dio "The Last in Line" is downright epic. If you get around to it, please do the studio version and NOT the lame 80s video that cut out parts of the song. The live version is cool but really should get the full impact from studio first.
There was only one Ronnie James Dio, and no one else comes close. Miss ya much. Always
Ronnie Dio performed as a touring live musician for nearly 50 years. He was truly a god among men.
Is this 'Dio' just doing a 'Sabbath' tune? Isn't that the 'Dio' band?

yes but to be fair it was his song that he wrote while in sabbath. one of the ones he was proudest of writing as per an interview with him.
You need to react to some Judas Priest. Maybe the song Victim Of Changes, or Metal Gods.

The best Voice in metal. RIP Ronnie James Dio. The portrait was of Dio a fan drew it for him as he honored them. He was so appreciative of his fans and loved us!!! His showmanship is so amazing! My favorite metal frontman!
Yes! One of my favorite Sabbath songs! Thanks brother! I love your videos my man, you're so entertaining!

Arguably the greatest heavy metal singer ever! RIP Ronnie James Dio. I saw this tour in 1986. One of the most amazing shows I have ever seen.
Excellent content on this one. Thank-you. P.S. when Dio played in Toronto he grabbed a fans banner and displayed it for the crowd, the man was a master of the stage.

I'm so glad you did this song. It's pure gold. All 8 songs on that album are gold.
The canvas was Dio’s likeness! Original fan mail from the 80’s brother. No auto tune or internet. This was the way it was back in the day my guy. Truly disgraceful you missed out on this! You have an old soul; and that is why I love your reactions!! Always be willing to learn, my guy! Thanks again for posting this!!!
i just listened the holy diver full album in the morning !, please try holy diver !, greetings from Mexico Jamal
I know you like the live versions for the energy and what not but this was not the greatest live performance. Yes, his voice is on point but this is his solo band. He was with Black Sabbath when this song was made and it's missing that Sabbath magic. Also, they didn't even do the pickup at the end, which is the best part of this song IMO. Check out the studio version sometime and you'll see what I mean. I always recommend the original version of a song for a first listen, so you can get a feel for it and then move on to live versions.

This song was broken up by whoever put it up on KZread. The other half is on the following video in the series of videos that makes up this entire concert.
RJD was one of the best vocalists ever. I loved him when I saw him live, but today I realize what an amazing voice he truly had. As in top 5 rock voices. RIP Ronnie, and thanks JAJ for this video.
I always love how Dio tells and sales the story! You could close your eyes and be right there with him! It’s like a journey!
What happened to: "They'll tell you black is really white The moon is just the sun at night.." etc.? THEY CUT OFF THE BEST PART OF THE SONG!!!

It's Dio solo. Not Sabbath
You should look up Ronnie and the Red Caps. RJD's early band where he was more of a crooner.
The 'sheets', with drawings on them...were drawings...fans had made. And Ronnie...being a nice guy, was the type of guy, who would, during performances...'show them off to the crowd'. Can you imagine...being a 13, or 17, year old kid...who took the time, to draw his favorite artist, on a huge sheet...get tickets to Ronnie's show....only to have Ronnie stop in the middle of his performance, and show the crowd the work the kid had done? It was just Ronnie's way of saying thank you, to whatever kid it was that took the time to do the work. Kid probably got so excited, telling all his friends at school the next day..."Ronnie James Dio, showed the crowd my drawing of him!" For all the heaviness in Ronnies music...he still, was just a regular guy, and a nice one at that. Just really nice of Ronnie, to take a moment during his show, to show a fan, he appreciated him/her. It was Ronnie James Dio...just being a nice guy. ☀️
Jamel Catch the Rainbow live in Munich. Dio's vocals and Blackmore's guitar(especially his intro) are on another level. You my friend are the best at what you do because you genuinely feel the music.
This is not Black Sabbath!!!!! It's Dio's solo group trying to recreate Black Sabbath.

What makes a good singer? A golden voice does not hurt...
It was him . His voice was powerful.,for a very small guy. But, he appreciates,all his fans and what he had and always have back. There will never be another like him again. Rip . Always me missed and lovef
This little man, Ronnie James Dio is the reason I picked up a guitar and music. His whole idea of telling stories of old, of knights and dragons through your music still lives in me. Might be the alcohol in me talking but a part of me died with his passing in May 2010.
