Released: 2000 Warner Brothers

| A former Rainbow and Black Sabbath Vocalist
who went solo to start his own band, Ronnie James Dio is one of
rock's most powerful singers. Man, can this guy belt out a song!
This album compiles works from his first album Holy Diver (1983)
to the Strange Highways album (1994). Most of
the songs on this CD come from his first three albums, so it's
not much of a stretch to say that his earlier albums were his
best. However, the songs chosen from his later albums were good
choices that make this compilation well worth purchasing for
someone who wants to really get a good sample of his work. This
CD contains his popular classics such as: "Holy
Diver", "Rainbow in the Dark",
"Mystery" and "Last in Line". Plus three
great songs from his third album, Sacred Heart-The title
track, "Hungry for Heaven" and "Rock and Roll
Children". Then we have the less familiar but worthy tunes
from his later albums like: "Dream Evil", "Lock
up the Wolves" and "Strange Highways". After the
purchase of this CD, I would recommend Holy Diver (1983),
The Last In Line (1984) and Sacred Heart (1985). |
