Ronnie James Dio

GH at RJD memorial

Love is truly the answer, Glenn has said it a hundred times but now I see.
RJD was a man who LOVED what he did and has lived his whole life driven by love and passion, if you're to build your life on a foundation, love is the strongest one you'll ever find.

Thirty years ago and also even a year ago, I never ever imagined Glenn singing the great song "Catch The Rainbow". I feel so sad about why and where he sang the song. Such great and emotional performance by Glenn. RIP Ronnie.

Wonderful, thank you.

Thanks for the pic of Ronnie's grave, Glenn So good to see where the little big man found his last rest.

Wondering about the painting in the background?

Wondering about the painting in the background?

"Portrait Of Three Children" is a replica of the original mosaic, painted by American artist, Rembrandt Peale in 1808...

God bless you Ronnie. Your spirit and music will live on. Me, and my rock buddy Theo, had the privilige to have some very nice contacts with you before and after the shows during the years. You where always such a great guy. But above all your singing was extraordinairy. Superb. After the death of John Lennon I never felt such a grieve and loss and never seen such a media exposure when a rock legend died. Dear Ronnie, Rainbow with you, Ritchie and Cozy is the best ever happened in Hard Rock Music. But also Sabbath, Dio were amazing.

The last time I had the change to see you was in 2007 with Black Sabbath (sorry I mean Heaven and Hell ) It was a superb show. Still singing as a Dio (=rock god). Your legacy lives on. Glenn thanx for your musical tributes to our great friend Ronnie James Dio. Wendy all the best to you. The Dio fans are with you. Long Live Rock and Roll, Willem

Great loss...

Very soon (October)to be released: The Very Beast of Dio volume 2, with some material never released before on album (songs from Magica II and III) and the last song ever recorded by Ronnie James DIO (Heavy Metal Will Never Die). That last song he recorded a few weeks before he died????? (I think).
For the collectors: there will be a vinyl version of the album. The cover art is by the horror/fantasy artist who also did Master of the Moon, the very last DIO studio album from 2005.

So interesting material: THE VERY BEAST OF DIO: volume 2
