| | Ronnie James Dio - Uncyclopedia |
| | Guitarists in Dio's band were notoriously short-lived, often due to the difficulty of playing complex solos while dancing in concentric circles on the top of an animatronic dragon statue. | | | Also, Dio's later albums were criticized as being to experimental, often featuring oddities such as a 15-banjo accompaniment. | | | Ronnie started out in a space rock band known as Elf, but he left after he decided they 'sounded too much like Pink Floyd'. |

| | In 2000, a pair of Dio releases emerged; first was Dio's first new studio album in four years, the concept album Magica (which saw past members Bain and Goldy return to the group), as well as a 16-track compilation titled The Very Beast of Dio. | | | Just prior to Campbell's exit, the entire Dio band helped organize Hear N' Aid, an all-star assembly of heavy metal artists that recorded a track called "Stars," which helped fight world hunger (a subsequent album was issued as well, collecting previously unreleased live tracks from a few of the day's top hard rock acts). | | | For their sophomore effort, 1984's The Last in Line, the band expanded its lineup to include keyboardist Claude Schnell, as the album would become the biggest hit of Dio's career (on the strength of another MTV-approved video, for the album's anthemic title track) and the group became an arena-headliner. |

I think a lot of the musical creativity is because Craig and I have been writing together so long. | | | Look for DIO on the road in October and November and look for a new Hear ‘N Aid album as well. | | | From the devil horns sign to the fantastic shades of light and darkness in his music to his trademark vocals, RJD has been an important and often powerful force in the musical genre he helped define. |

| | As soon as the lights dimmed a chorus of "Dio, Dio, …" welcomed the band as they opened with the throbbing title track of the latest album 'Killing the Dragon'. | | | With a rich musical history to plunder the band stepped back to 1984 and their second album for 'Egypt' and further still to the days before Ronnie was a solo artist with Black Sabbath's 'Children of the Sea'. | | | One anthem moved via another guitar solo to the foot stomping and air punching 'Long Live Rock'n'Roll' from the follow-up album. |

| | In 1985, Dio also found time to lead a heavy metal version of Band Aid/USA for Africa called Hear N' Aid, which saw an all-star group of metallists performing a Dio-penned song, "Stars," with all the funds of the single and album of the same name going to fight starvation in Africa. | | | With Sabbath enjoying their greatest success in years, Dio shocked the metal world by leaving what appeared to be a promising union after the spotty Live Evil release appeared in 1982. | | | Similar in style to his previous bands, but with a slightly more commercial edge to it, Dio's first two solo albums, 1983's Holy Diver and 1984's Last in Line, racked up platinum sales -- making the band an arena headliner in their own right (complete with a highly theatrical and prop-heavy stageshow). |
