If you guys want a beauty of a metal compilation, pick up "The best of Dio" off of iTunes. Pretty much covers all of his best stuff through the years with Rainbow, Sabbath, Dio, and Heaven and hell. If you young bucks haven't experienced the greatness Ronnie James Dio, you owe it to yourself as a metal fan to check out in my opinion, the biggest influence to the genre.

In the mean time I will leave you with this. The sheer awesome contained in this video is not meant for mere mortals. Warning, DO NOT MAKE DIRECT EYE CONTACT WITH BLACKIE LAWLESS. Even though this is just a youtube video, he can still suck your soul out through the monitor.

If I am grateful for one thing, it is the fact that I grew up listening to all of these guys in their prime. Man I wish I still had all my old vinyl.
