Time to dig out my one vinyl Sabbath with Dio and Solo Dio albums and dust off the turn table.

Damn shame for sure. Liked him both in Sabbath and Rainbow as well as solo.

I just saw this. I guess it's old news now. I was real bummed and shocked when it happened.
I have a real association between Dio and my first car, a MINT 72 Satellite. It was 82 or 83 and Dio hit it big with Holy Diver. I was obsessed with that album. I didn't have money for a cassete player so I drove around with my ghetto blaster cranking out from the passenger side seat. When you saw my car rolling down the road that was the soundtrack!
Ha-ha things haven't changed though. My 71 and 72 RRs only have AM radios still!!
BTW-he was also great in Rainbow with Ritchie Blackmore, formerly of Deep Purple.
