Movie Review: Dio - 'Sacred Heart:The DVD' (WEA)
Summary: 5 Stars
Well,I've seen Ronnie James Dio perform live six(6)times including on Sabbath's 'Heaven&Hell' trek.I've even met him three times and the second time he actually remember me,by name.The 'Sacred Heart' tour was,no doubt an awesome event,but for some reason,I was more blown away by his 'Last In Line' tour.Don't get me wrong,'Sacred...' is great.Noticed on this DVD that guitarist Craig Goldie had replaced Vivian Campbell(I had sort of forgot about that)but nonetheless,Goldie fills in quite well.I'm unlikely to miss Vinny Appice on the drums.The sound and picture are simply of fantastic quality.All this metal magic,crystal ball action,dragons and swords never left my memory as I saw Dio the year BEFORE this DVD was filmed.Dug pretty much every tune,like the scorching opener "King Of Rock And Roll","Holy Diver","Rock&Roll Children","Man Of The Silver Mountain","Rainbow In The Dark" and "Hungry For Heaven".Very visual.Much worthy of repeated plays.A must-have for all fans of Dio and the metal genre.Movie Review: Another amazing Dio performance
Summary: 5 Stars
I've never seen Dio perform live before, but this performance was absolutely astonishing. All DVDs and concerts I've seen of him are top quality. He is a true metal icon and none can match his singing and performing talents.The lighting effects and stage setup is really good, though I think he had better stages during other tours, but hey I guess the dragon gives this concert the more points.
There are some amazing solos by Craig Goldy, and the lighting effects done when Dio does the vocal solo for Heaven and Hell were spellbinding.
The version of Rock N Roll Children was really good, and if you weren't too happy with the sorta pop sound it had on the studio album the you'll probably like this version, especially the intro. It was also good to see Time To Burn on the concert as it is a great song and this'll be the only time you'll probably see it live unless he plays it again on an upcoming tour, but I doubt it.
Movie Review: Forget Spinal Tap, check THIS out!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Unbelievable...the songs, the stage show...dude, I'm talking dragons, orbs, lit up swords, smoke and gauntlets!!! The most metal thing I have ever witnessed, I envy anyone who saw this in the flesh!!! Dio sounds as good today as he did then...so metal!!! Just a plain ol' good time. Show this to your non-metal friends and they won't believe what they've been missing! Satan bless Dio, he is the real deal, from Rainbow to Sabbath, he has done no wrong, and this dvd is proof of that. Oh, if I could live in a time machine, for all our metal heroes are indeed reaching their end...Movie Review: DIO LIVE
Summary: 5 Stars
I am using my wife's account but I have to disagree with the above review. The point he makes by moving back and forth between songs is making the whole concert flow together as one. The music, audience, theatrics, and the band together. Suddenly at the end of the concert the ending of the first song played and the climax of it all ROCKS!!!

My DIO WEBPAGE, May he Rest in PEACE!!!
Movie Review: It's DIO need I say more?
Summary: 5 Stars
I haven't seen the DVD , but this looks like it's the DVD version of the video tape. This is from a 1986 concert at the Philadelphia Spectrum. It's awsome, Dragons, swords, great music.. typical DIO!!!!!!UPDATE
I now own this and it is better than I thought. It contains a recent Interview with RJD and guitarist Craig Goldy
