No list in the world can adequately demonstrate the vocal prowess and influence that Ronnie James Dio brought to the world of Rock and Heavy Metal.
From the beginning of his career in the distant 1950s with Ronnie And The Prophets to his final days with Heaven And Hell, Ronnie gave us countless performances that have gone down in history and stood the test of time, whether with Elf, Rainbow, Black Sabbath, or his solo band, Dio.
And it is precisely because he has given us so many immortal gifts that, with great admiration and respect, we attempt to list here the best performances of one of the greatest vocalists of all time, if not the greatest.
