      Fun Facts: Mob Rules and Heaven and Hell, were Dio replacing Ozzy in Black Sabbath and for me and Dio himself Heaven and Hell was the greatest song he ever made, very close to War Pigs for Sabbath top spot.

    A true legend who put time into the bands "Elf, Rainbow, Black Sabbath," and later, his own band. I was fortunate enough to meet Ronnie back in the 80's as a fan twice when he made tour stops in my hometown (Dio with Dokken opening up was the first one). The particular group of friends I ran with back then would go hang out by the band's and artist's tour busses after shows to perhaps get a few autographs or maybe even a signed tour t-shirt. Anyway, my friends goaded me into walking up and knocking on the door of Ronnie's bus. And, who answered the door? THE man himself. Long story short, Ronnie and his guitarist Vivian Campbell, hopped off the bus and took the time to chat with us for almost thirty minutes or so (and, we fired up and shared a little of the "combustible botanicals" we had that just happened to already be rolled up). I gotta say that he was very approachable, personable, easy to talk to, and an all-around kind man...both of em were. Ronnie seemed genuinely interested and questioned us about what our take from the show was, and he said to pull no punches. He didn't have to do any of that because we were just a bunch of kids and fans. THAT humbled all of us...a lot. Just a great man. RESPECT, and RIP my brother...you're sorely missed.

    I remember buying "Holy Diver" and "The Last In Line" when they were originally released in 1983 and 1984. Game changer in the metal world. Both albums are masterpieces. Dio's lyrics had so many layers and were open to interpretation. Vivian Campbell ruled and his playing on these two albums is absolutely flawless. Suggestions from the overall Dio catalogue: "Egypt" (Dio - The Last In Line), "Caught In The Middle" (Dio - Holy Diver), "Die Young" (Black Sabbath - Heaven And Hell), "Temple Of The King" (Rainbow - Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow), "Love Is All" (Roger Glover - Butterfly Ball).

    I love your Metal Reactions, you 2 are fairly new to my radar, only the last several months really. I'm splurging and riding your Time Machine, I love it! It's awesome watching you experience the music of my youth. Not to mention that I love the energy that the both of you conjure, both together and individually. Such a great vibe!

    Ronnie James Dio has a ton of great songs from his earlier days with Rainbow ("Stargazer" is a must), and Black Sabbath (after Ozzy). ("Sign of the Southern Cross", "Heaven and Hell".... and so many more, great rabbit hole to jump into.

    I am fortunate in the fact that I got to see Dio live from his Sacred Heart , Last In Line , and Dream Evil tours before he died. I went to L. A. for what was being promoted as the FINAL Motley Crue show and while I was in LA I visited Dio's tomb. Rock in peace RJD. You are definitely missed but never forgotten about

    Dio and a young Vivian Campbell on the guitar was so hot back in the day. I remember this album and my buddy who went to this concert and came back the next day with this "Last in Line" rock t-shirt...man was he cool at school😎

  • @johnsanchez9980
    @johnsanchez9980 2 роки тому +2

    Being the Last in Line refers to being the lost and forgotten generation. A generation that felt unloved and often seen as throw aways. These children came from broken homes and lived through the poor economic times of the 70’s and these were kids that were reared on television and were morally and emotionally bankrupt.
    Basically, Ronnie was sending a message to those lost and unloved kids in 1984....telling all of us....We’re the Last in Line....See how we shine!
    Yes there are a lot of religious metaphors used to convey a message of a generation, even though downtrodden, had a voice and wanted to be heard. A generation that was ready and eager for life’s experiences and would take a gamble, no matter the cost..
    “ We’re off to the Witch..we may never come home...but the magic that we’ll feel is worth a life time” - a Wizard of Oz type of journey where perhaps Innocence is lost and washed away and the experience or the things we learned, good or bad stays with us..
    Ronnie James Dio was an absolute master at metaphorical writing.
    The rest of the lyrics contain anguishing choices that we all must go through on life’s journey and the swiftness of life is “the hand that writes and quickly moves away” never to be rewritten and it is only during final judgement will we get our answer of Eternal Life or Damnation.
    One more thing about Ronnie James Dio...
    He gave the world this symbol ---> 🤘🏼

    Ronnie James Dio... he is a master lyricist that takes you on a journey in all of his songs... a couple of great choices to continue down the Dio rabbit hole are "Egypt: The Chains are On" and "All the Fools Sailed Away"... and you can't go wrong with "Stargazer" from his days with Rainbow

    This song was my first experience with Dio. His official video appeared on the ol Friday Night Videos show 30+ years ago. I thought it was going to be a ballad until his voice kicked into gear. I became a super fan after that.
    Dio loved to blur the line between good and evil. His first solo album had a demon holding one end of a chain. The other end was wrapped around the neck of a preacher, who was swimming in the pit of hell.
    He talked about the duality of the appearances. What if the demon was actually the good guy and the preacher was evil?
    “We Rock” off that same album if a serious Rock Anthem
    Of course, the album Holy Diver has great songs on it. The title track “Holy Diver” and and not be outdone, “Rainbow in the Dark” it gets a lot airplay, to this day
    This is just two tracks off two albums
    “Mistreated”, when he sang with Rainbow as well as “Man on a Silver Mountain” and what Dio song wouldn’t need another anthem so he gives us.”Long Live Rock and Roll”.
    His Black Sabbath years gave us “Lady Evil”,”Neon Nights, “TV Crimes”, and, of course, “Heaven and Hell”

    Hello. I have never seen your channel, but I always watch any video of people that are not familiar with this kind of music checking out Dio. He and all his bands were the best. And it's awesome how people react to his music. Thank you for this. You guys didn't disappoint. Asia getting goosebumps after the guitar solo is exactly what I'm talking about! I've been getting goosebumps from this song for decades! I play in Heavy Metal tribute band, and nothing is better than playing Dio! I would suggest ,by the way you guys reacted to this and the way you totally got it, that you check out the song ALL THE FOOLS SAILED AWAY. Very deep and epic song by him. You will love it. Thanks again and take care

      He recorded with Sabbath Heaven and Hell, Mob Rules, Dehumaniser and The Devil You Know. This last one Sabbath couldn't use the name Black Sabbath because of rights to the use of the name, so they recorded as Heaven and Hell band. But it still sends shivers down my spine when I remember their concert in Sao Paulo when the crowd, after the host announced Heaven and Hell band, started to scream "Sabbath! Sabbath! Sabbath!" like crazy (me included 🤘)!
