In order to celebrate what would have been Ronnie's 80th birthday Rhino is putting together a HOLY DIVER boxset:

The Super Deluxe Edition isn't even all that crazy expensive...although it is CD only...




I believe I'll be getting this one...

I will be getting this as well. Although 60 American dollars is pretty steep I would say. I do have the Deluxe that came out a few years ago and I love it.

He would have been 80, and probably would still have had a fantastic voice. Can't believe he's been dead for so long. :(

Happy Birthday Ronnie and RIP

13 years, wow! That's crazy how fast the time has flown.

Definitely listening to something of his later when I have time.

Dio day! It definitely does not seem like 13 years. What an iconic voice and stage presence!

Dio Day indeed. I played through a LOT of Dio material, from Elf to Rainbow to Black Sabbath to his solo career. Great stuff, thanks for the inspiration and reminder, Charger.
