1	Heaven and Hell (1980) more music like this by Black Sabbath Many had left Black Sabbath for dead at the dawn of the '80s, and with good reason -- the band's last few albums were not even close to their early classics, and original singer Ozzy Osbourne had just split from the band. But the Sabs had found a worthy replacement in former Elf and Rainbow singer Ronnie James Dio, and bounced back to issue their ... see all copies from £4.10! new only from £8.06!
2	The Last in Line (1984) more music like this by Dio After the warm reception accorded their debut, Dio decided to play it safe with their 1984 sophomore effort, The Last in Line -- with mixed results. The in-your-face energy of the band's debut is dulled by a sleeker production job, with generous keyboards from new member Claude Schnell. And Ronnie James Dio's once-amusing Dungeons and Dragons ... see all copies from £5.97! new only from £5.97!
3	Rising (1976) more music like this by Rainbow On their second release, Rainbow not only avoid the sophomore jinx; they hit a home run. After replacing the entire band (except Ronnie James Dio) immediately following the recording of the first album, Ritchie Blackmore and the Rising lineup (Blackmore; Dio; Tony Carey, keys; Jimmy Bain, bass; and the late, great Cozy Powell, drums) had plenty of ... see all copies from £5.63! new only from £6.32!
4	The Very Beast of Dio (2000) more music like this by Dio The first domestically available Dio anthology (following the 1994 German import Diamonds), Rhino's The Very Beast of Dio is jam-packed with 16 tracks taken from the band's seven Warner and Reprise albums (spanning the years 1983-1994). Which is to say, it's an excellent overview of the band's career, especially given the unevenness of some of ... see all copies from £4.68! new only from £7.56!
5	Strange Highways (1994) more music like this by Dio The final Warner Bros. release for Dio after an 11-year run of hard-edged post-Sabbath recordings, Strange Highways is almost a return to early '80s form for a group that hadn't done anything particularly inspiring since 1984's Last in Line. Joining the band's namesake vocalist Ronnie James Dio on this 1994 release is an all-star lineup, including ... see all copies from £3.15! new only from £8.34!
6	Long Live Rock 'n' Roll (1978) more music like this by Rainbow Long Live Rock 'n' Roll may be singer Ronnie James Dio's last album with Rainbow, but at least he went out on a high note. While the material is not quite as strong as on the previous studio effort, Rising, Long Live Rock 'n' Roll maintains the momentum the band had built up. "Kill the King" had been previously heard on the live On Stage record, ... see all copies from £3.17! new only from £6.05!
7	Live Evil (1982) more music like this by Black Sabbath Black Sabbath's first attempt at an official live album was the straw that broke the camel's back; or rather, it split the band's second lineup right down the middle. Band tensions were already at an all-time high, but when founding members Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler accused singer Ronnie James Dio of sneaking into the studio to raise the volume ... see all copies from £11.45! new only from £13.36!
8	Mob Rules (1981) more music like this by Black Sabbath 1981's Mob Rules was the second Black Sabbath album to feature vertically challenged singer Ronnie James Dio, whose powerful pipes and Dungeons and Dragons lyrics initially seemed like the perfect replacement for the recently departed and wildly popular Ozzy Osbourne. In fact, all the ingredients which had made their first outing, Heaven and Hell, ... see all copies from £4.67! new only from £8.00!
9	Dream Evil (1987) more music like this by Dio Dream Evil is by no means a departure from the Dio formula that was so successful for his first three solo albums. All of the elements that made them so successful are yet again retained here. However, what makes things different this time around is that Dio has more of a melodious side to him, which he puts use here rather than relying on the ... see all copies from £4.42! new only from £4.42!
10	On Stage (1977) more music like this by Rainbow Breaking with '70s heavy metal tradition by releasing a live album after only two studio efforts (you're supposed to have three before the live one), Rainbow served up this double platter in 1977. On Stage is full of great songs and playing, but somehow it lacks some of the excitement that existed at those early Ritchie Blackmore concerts. The ... see all copies from £4.78! new only from £5.50!
11 view cover	Lock up the Wolves (1990) more music like this by Dio see all copies from £4.78! new only from £4.78!
12 view cover	The Dio Years (2007) more music like this by Black Sabbath The original lineup of Black Sabbath possesses such a mythic quality that it's easy to overlook how far they slid by the time Ozzy Osbourne up and left the band...or how far they rebounded after they hired Rainbow singer Ronnie James Dio as his replacement. Countless compilations over the years have preserved the initial part of the story line -- ... see all copies from £4.68! new only from £4.68!
13 view cover	Past Lives (2002) more music like this by Black Sabbath Originally released in 1980 under the name Live at Last, this infamous live disc has never been heard in its entirety until its 2002 reissue. Where the original album suffered from flat sound and an abrupt ending, this has been remastered and remixed to give it the spacy vibe and airy sound it needs. Recorded at several different points in their ... see all copies from £7.85! new only from £13.01!
14 view cover	The Very Best of Rainbow (1997) more music like this by Rainbow The Best of Rainbow compiles 16 of the best tracks from Rainbow's first seven studio albums, wisely avoiding 1977's live On Stage release. The first two tracks from their debut album, 1975's Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, showcases the instant bond that was formed between Blackmore and Ronnie James Dio, especially on "Man on the Silver Mountain." ... see all copies from £6.21! new only from £8.72!
15 view cover	Metal Hits (2005) more music like this by Dio Dio fans need to beware for one reason alone: the songs on Metal Hits are all live versions of these well-known tracks. And while Ronnie James Dio is arguably one of the great rock singers ever, these looser concert performances don't always match him up with great bands, or, even if the band is solid, the mix is shoddy -- the version of "Holy ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £3.01!
16 view cover	Live from Radio City Music Hall (2007) more music like this by Heaven & Hell Here it is, the unholy quartet back in all its glorious ugliness with the name it should have had all along. Heaven & Hell are comprised of guitarist Tony Iommi, fuzz and buzz bassist Geezer Butler, drummer Vinny Appice, and vocalist Ronnie James Dio. The former pair were founding members of doom metal lords Black Sabbath, of course. Dio is best ... see all copies from £12.10! new only from £13.14!
17 view cover	Diamonds: The Best of Dio (1994) more music like this by Dio see all copies from £8.66! new only from £8.66!
18 view cover	Intermission (1986) more music like this by Dio see all copies from £8.20!
19 view cover	Finyl Vinyl (1986) more music like this by Rainbow Ritchie Blackmore decided to pull the plug on Rainbow following the supporting tour for 1983's Bent Out of Shape. To commemorate the end of the band, he released the appropriately-titled, Finyl Vinyl. A double-record set of live recordings and a handful of studio outtakes, primarily culled from the Joe Lynn Turner era but also featuring selections ... see all copies from £6.72! new only from £24.76!
20 view cover	Master of the Moon (2004) more music like this by Dio There's something about a post-millennium album cover that features a giant blue-horned minion of Satan in pre-pounce with an illuminated crystal ball in its leathery hand that simply warms the soul, and the fact that it adorns a record called Master of the Moon can mean only one thing: Dio. Unlike many in the aging metal community, Ronnie James ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £2.73!
21 view cover	Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow (1975) more music like this by Rainbow see all copies from £4.44! new only from £5.54!
22 view cover	Holy Diver Live (2006) more music like this by Dio Ronnie James Dio has issued quite a few live albums and videos since departing from Black Sabbath in the early '80s, but as evidenced by its title, 2006's Holy Diver Live is a bit different. Keeping in step with a phenomenon started in the '90s with veteran rock acts performing a classic album in its entirety, Dio revisited his 1983 solo debut, ... see all copies from £6.83! new only from £6.83!
23 view cover	Catch the Rainbow: The Anthology (2003) more music like this by Rainbow Released in 2003, the exceptional two-CD Rainbow collection Catch the Rainbow: The Anthology provides a deeper understanding of how the band influenced the direction of hard rock and heavy metal. Between 1975 and 1984, former Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore guided his new band (which had dizzying revolving-door lineup changes) through ... see all copies from £9.80! new only from £14.70!
24 view cover	Live in Munich 1977 (2006) more music like this by Rainbow Oh Yeah. When Rainbow's On Stage album was released in 1977, it felt like a flat representation of what the band were capable of live. With a few personnel changes, the group went out on tour in 1977 t to support a live album -- the membership changes prevented them form working on a third studio album at the time. This live document is a complete ... see all copies from £5.97! new only from £5.97!
25 view cover	Magica (2000) more music like this by Dio Dio's rock-solid 2000 concept album Magica would have better fit the musical climate 15-25 years beforehand, but a good album is a good album. Ronnie James Dio's band's previous studio effort, 1996's Angry Machines, admirably addressed modern, non-traditional heavy metal topics. But the musically superior Magica is rooted in the dark, mystical ... see all copies from £6.71! new only from £10.04!
