Ronnie James Dio R.I.P.

Well, I'm back, didja miss me? So, while I've been away on tour, a great talent of rock n roll passed away. We knew RJD was ill when he cancelled dates last year and announced he had cancer, but we all assumed he'd pull through. My thoughts are with Wendy and the rest of his family.

So, to commemorate the tiny giant of metal, here are two Friday Rock Show broadcasts of Dio gigs. Both from the Donington Monsters Of Rock Festivals. I was at the 1987 one, at the tender age of 16. It was a great day of metal!
