The best.  I don't always like the music, but what a voice!  :D

God, doesn't time fly.  Lock Up The Wolves seems like yesterday, but that "wonderkid" Rowan Robertson is 35 years old now.  It's a pity Ronnie split that version of Dio to go back to Sabbath, they never had time to develop.  And I didn't even like Dehumanizer.

nice! I recently got the best of dio (yeah, I know, the actual albums have more "cool" factor, but the best of was £3.99...), and it rules.

Nice solo by that prodigy dude as well- excellent vibrato!

Sign of getting old Dave! -

1. In your teens/early 20s you'd rather buy 10 albums mostly full of songs you don't like than be seen dead with a "Best Of";
2. By your mid/late 20s you'll buy them, but only from a record shop in another town where you won't bump into anyone you know;
3. By my age you'll publicly admit that you quite like Journey, but NOT enough to collect all their albums;
4. At some point you lose all touch with popular culture and start buying things like "Now That's What I Call Music 58".  And Robbie f*cking Williams.  Then at Christmas you put them on and try to persuade your kids to have "a bit of a bop".

I'm praying I never reach stage 4. :?

To paraphrase Shakespeare:
