In honor of The Spectrum and the Great Ronnie James Dio we are posting all of his YouTube Spectrum footage today.
This is the GREATEST ROCK ANTHEM OF ALL TIME.
Two things to note here:
1) The Title of his special is on this video:
"DIO, A Special from The Spectrum" and
2) At the end, he gives a little speech to Philly about how he loved us and always opened and closed his tours here.
WE LOVE YOU RONNIE! R.I.P. RJD
\m/
MAY YOU REST IN PEACE and MAY GOD BE AS GREAT TO YOU AS YOU WERE TO US!
Our thoughts are with your beloved widow, Wendy and your late cat Jack with whom you were reunited with on the other side...You fucking rock and are the BEST OF ALL TIME!
TURN IT UP AND ENJOY!
Here's "STAND UP AND SHOUT"
You've got desire -So let it out
You've got the fire -Stand up and shout!
You are the strongest chain
And not just some reflection
So never hide again
You are the driver- You own the road
You are the fire go on explode!
Note: We personally met Dio at the Tower Theater back in 1991. He was the most gracious celebrity we have ever met. He signed things for us and thanked us for being fans. I told him he was a master lyricist and the best ever and repeatedly tried to thank him. He just hugged me and said "thank you, thank you. It's you I have to thank". We left walking on air and bragged about it for MONTHS. We're so very thankful for that experience and will never forget. To think that that was 20 years ago just completely blows my mind.
Our hero worship for DIO is on the next level. We will forever do a DIO tribute twice a year - on his birthday (7/10) and anniversary of passing (5/16).
