Ronnie James Dio, Dead at 67

Published by Toronto Mike on May 16, 2010 @ 18:52 in Celebrity Deaths

In MemoriumRonnie James Dio was 67. He was a singer with the bands Rainbow, Black Sabbath and Dio, whose powerful, semioperatic vocal style and attachment to demonic imagery made him one of the best-loved figures in classic heavy metal.

If you want to see some great Dio footage, watch "Metal: A Headbanger's Journey". Here's my review of that very cool documentary. And here's the very cool documentary itself.
