You know, I've been a rocker for 45 years, but RJD is a standout in heavy metal. Didn't discover his level closely Until 2yrs ago. Zeppelin fan Is almost HM.

THATS RIGHT.... TOTALLY AGREE.

His work in Rainbow 🌈 is awesome. He's always gonna be the 🌈 front man of Rainbow. Sabbath was always Ozzy's band. Great jams with Sabbath

Bro, u "hear" RJD, fact. What to hell is a Adam Lampert (Queen) ! 🤮

Amen!

Amen and with a massive smile on my face, this is heavy metal Rock and Roll

RJD was the best Sabbath singer ever 🤘🤘🤘

It will be listened even in years that follow 😅

Oh yeah! Ronnie was the greatest rock singer of our time!😊

Checkin' in & verified - still F***'n Bad Ass!

im a 63 year old metalhead death metal lover and i agree

I'm 44 years old, they wrote Heaven and Hell the year I was born and I really didn't know much about the Dio years of Black Sabbath till I was in my 20's!🤘🤘

…and Ozzy Sabbath before that@@Clarkgriswood

spot on bud ... im 62 i play bass and i tell ya... it keeeps me freakin young!!! rip Ronnie!!!

I'm 60 yo and I still remember when it came out. Still phenomenal. ❤​@ronmaiden1

THANKS

Thank you! \m/

Thanks mate! Fully appreciated :)

20minutes of Heaven and Hell is heaven to me.🙂

I(am grateful)

Lookout.

A shame I met his wife last year, a class act. Dio always loved his fans. I'm 20 and I'm getting goosebumps watching this. His hometown is not too far from me.

Chris Hopkins rock world are missing a awesome singer

@chrishopkins209 This was my immediate thought once I started watching this musical masterpiece. R.I.P Mr. Ronnie James Dio. What a Man with a singing voice to match.

They made new music at the time too!

Heaven and Hell is perhaps THE QUINTESSENTIAL METAL ALBUM. Opened the 80s with an instant, perfect album, after ruling the 70s. Sabbath is an amazing band.

Iommi and crew did not know the meaning of "standard". It was always GREAT.

Rock heavy forever

IOMMI is a Master, and, even OZZY pays him the compliments!!

O melhor que já vi em todos os meus anos.

The only voice of BS is Ozzy!

Paolo Rossetti you shoud be very popular at the parties.

@@paolorossetti8548 you poser 😂😂

No he didn't have cancer here he was giving the news 8 months later so

​@@stevenorton9438he might have been given the news 8 months later but he had cancer before that 8 months

Tony and Ritchie....then all others......

@@allandgraf482 Totally agree

Top riff master for sure top 4or5 of his time can't forget Richie Blackmore or Jeff Beck, of course, Jimmy Page Honorable mention Ace Freley

Uli

@@nhannyheil6934 u

Halford and Dickinson. Lol

@@zombywoof7309. Not really because they don’t sound nothing like Dio.

I love Dickinson and Dio, also Halford (when he's not screeching), Tony Martin, Jeff Scott Soto, Ian Gillan to name a few off the top of my head.

Yes my brother.

Bad times are made made better with a great metal concert and family.

Me 2

Dio Forever 🔥🤘🎸

Oh yeah

Not just metal he was singing music back in the 50s long before heavy metal and was a great singer

Boing, I was wondering why Bill looked different. Vinnie

Yes. One of the best world heavy metal combo. Dio was a metal god.

Too bad Sharon felt compelled scrape some extra pennies together, using Tommy Clufetos, who was already on retainer as the drummer for Ozzy Osbourne Band, to drum for Sabbath. IMO, his style didn't mesh well on "Bark At The Moon", & other OZZY tunes, for Black Sabbath, he didn't have that unique swing element. If it's not the mighty BILL FUCKING WARD, on his rightful throne, then Vinnie should have gotten the call. When the contracts were signed for the "REUNION" World Tour and the rehearsals began, the Companies providing the tour insurance, the underwriters, had concerns about Bill Ward's overall health, as he had heart issues in the years leading up to 1998, when the original members began to talk about getting back together. So it was the insurance companies who brought up the subject of a "stand-in", in the event Bill's health declined. For Tony and Geezer, the obvious choice was Vinnie Appice. Bill Ward performed amazingly during every date of the tour. Vinnie, was on the first leg of the tour, later on, he was on call, staying in the hub city, as the tour moved from region to region.

Heavy rock PERFECTION!!!

54.17 to 54.41 ❤️❤️🤘🤘

Geoff deserves a lot of credit for his work with Sabbath, but on this and other Heaven & Hell stuff it was actually Scott Warren from Dio on keys/rhythm guitar.

@@ScreamWright Yeah Geoff was a great guy. I always tried to be at the front on the right in front of Tony at shows so you could look across to the left and see Geoff tucked away. My Dad had a curtain business and we did Geoff's curtains during the 1989 Headless Cross Tour. He lived about 10 mins away from where I live now. In all the years i saw them live with Geoff I only saw him take a bow at the end of a show once. He added a lot to the music during the Dio era. Always wondered why Scott Warren came in during the Heaven and Hell shows other than I guess he did the keyboards in the Dio band.

Geoff Nicholls was great, but I do not believe he is on here. I am pretty sure this is DIO keyboard player Scott Warren.

@@RetroByteZone I won tickets and an autographed poster to the Toronto show on the headless cross tour. Unfortunately I was living in Alta and couldn’t attend, I wonder what I did with the poster 🧐

As a rhythm guitarist I love seeing this comment. Unless you are Rush, it is very challenging to play a guitar solo live and not have the sound fall of the edge of the world, (ZZ Top etc.) and yet as critical to the music as rhythm guitarists are, so often we are still literally relegated to the shadows, so much so that even here there is debate over who was actually playing rhythm that night.

Ronnie as the man on the Silver Mountain!

yes agree , all 4 are giants of metal

I got to see him two times touring for his solo albums. both were epic shows and I've always heard he loved his fans. I played non-stop Dio all day when I heard about him leaving this earth.

I have a hunch he was not a believer/follower in Jesus Christ.

​@@powermetal26 That's because he was Jewish. His real name was Ronald Maury Dioshowitz.

Ronnie was truly exceptional and I will never forgive myself for not seeing him live.

no sorry....That's Tony Iommi

This was actually from Wacken Open Air on July 30, 2009. At this point Ronnie already had terminal cancer, but did not yet know.

can't believe it's 14 jears... would have seen them but he fell ill... rest in peace, you god of rock

Such a monster voice coming out of that tiny body. Amazing

😥

10 years next month

He's ripping it up in hell, having a great time, I'm sure.

RJD IS A RAINBOW IN THE DARK

You are right... Tony was amazing that night.

His tone and riffs are so tight and strong!

Every time I've seen Tony (4 times) he's always been on point.

Whoever did sound for this deserves an award. It's unbelievable that these songs are even better here than on the albums. Would love to have a copy of Dehumanizer with this mix, because "I" never sounded this good.

I was there too, ten months later, on my 48th birthday, Dio left us.

Massachusetts Own ?

@@Hoota-hh1uh ??

@@jaydee888888888888 he was born in Somerville Massachusetts left in his 20's loik it up .

@@Hoota-hh1uh Who? Dio? Actually he was born in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. But anyway what's any of it got to do with my first comment?

The song is titled 'Neon Knights', as in Knights of the Round Table.

Set performed by Masters. Greatness to see and listen to.

UP!

I'm 58 I saw dio live in Tucson az. In 1983 or 84 r. I. P he sounds the same... 6 months before he passed my son was at a casino in Albuquerque n.m he was blessed to get a photo with him and he signed merch dio had a big heart for all his fans

CANCER DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY

Importante mesmo é que boas palavras sejam ditas ou escritas nada mais além de boas energias

Give it a rest, mate

Shit man, was reading this at a moment i want to kill myself, TNX MAN. ill try: :)

@@garybrooks6934 no you give it a rest mate

It wasn't exactly sabath, it was more into something new and exiting and gave some real great classics.............heaven & hell

RJD the man with the golden throat.RIP.

Ozzy Sabbath was the best Sabbath, but I respect your opinion.

@@edwardssistershands think they were getting kinda stale with Oz. Last 2 albums were lackluster

The entire LP Mob Rules from beginning to end is immaculate perfect you could not ask for a better LP put the headphones on and listen from beginning to end the more you listen to it the better it gets wow we need more music like that today to calm everybody down and relax❤❤😂😅🎉🎉🎉

Aint that the truth brother!

That,s what I was thinking.

Word. Woooord

@Gerry Berry Bill left because of his drinking and depression (source was the Sabbath Story Volume 2 video). Bill had also lost both his parents in a short period of time not long before that. the only person he told he was leaving was Ronnie, "I'm off then, Ron.", also the lyrics are great, the previous lyric writer geezer butler agrees, Heaven and Hell was written when geezer when not in the band, he left for a bit, before Ronnie joined, but returned when they was recording, neon knights being the last song to be done, Mob Rules is where you have Geezer doing lyrics again, voodoo i think, but he has said in the past it is rather nice not having to write the lyrics for the singer, Ozzy didn't write the lyrics in sabbath that was all Geezer during the 1970s, the only ones Ozzy did being the synthesizer driven “who are you” and “am I going insane” from sabotage. get the facts right.

Damian Perry Please don't feed the troll!

Theses four sound 🎶fantastic, and wow Mr. Dio was so great. This performance once again proves his power🦉🤘🏾🤳🏼

Damn straight.​@@wwsoulrockerstudio

And don't forget battling cancer

A+++

No argument there!!!

@@mikekeeler6362 meanwhile some clown takes money from kids selling a ''cool'' adict image and a ''no more tours'' marketing cause he is 'probably'' dying for at least 3 decades

Lucky you, never got to see them. Yes! it is still my No 1 since 1980, and I have thousands of Heavy Metal albums. Kind Regards (from sunny Coast QLD).

11:01

he was 66 with four stage cancer here year before his death:/

I saw them in California and they jammed. Saw them on Mob Rules too with Outlaws. They jammed just like here. They could use the Sabbath name then before Sharon Oz owned it. Dio is in top form here. A trooper. A Rock Star.

Scott Warren guitar and keyboards live for Heaven and Hell

blackmore/dio , iommi/dio, dio/campbell, what more do you need. thanks to yt you have access to all of his work and hardly a day goes by without dio in my life. heaven and hell will be played when they are putting me 6ft. under. hoping i will sit close enough to him on some cloud to hear him sing forever;)))

sane here brother \

Same here brother from another mother.

Man, I miss Dio soooo much

The little guy with the BIG voice! Watching him on stage with Rainbow in the 70's sold me on his music. Then he easily replaced Ozzie in Sabbath and took them into a different league. He turned them into a true supergroup. That's when I discovered Elf. RJD became and remains my favourite rock singer of all time. Even better than Plant, Jack Russel and Paul Rogers etc.

surely he would have had it by this point though?

Thanks for information. It's information so hard for all rocks unit.

Amazon has live heaven and hell discs along with DVDs.

😥

Vinny Appice better

@@shahrulhaidi3782 Finnie Caprice better

@@shahrulhaidi3782 no

@Nirandorn Minrintara hard to replace the chemistry between Tony, Geezer and Bill. Even there were better drummers (Powell ...) then Bill in Black Sabbath, it did not worked the same way. Sad was not in shape for The End tour (the finnacial smokeshow was all bullshit, problem was elsewhere).

Geoff Nichols plays behind the screens: guitar and keys

Yea, was wondering about that too. Definitely a second guitar in there.

​@@hermanhelmich RIP GEOFF amazing musician

W:O:A 2009 is correct.

@@ilakresfengsel yeah I watched it and was like: Wait, thats the Wacken-Head, but RJD died in May, something must be wrong here...

Live for today tommorow never comes

I got to see him one last time at Graspop Metal Meeting '09. Same tour, goosebumps listening to this, still miss him. \,,/

Ya know? I even saw him in ELF at a local bar called the 'Bronze Bell'...sorry to say, tho, that is no longer here, either!

I think the same.

My home

There is no answer just like keyboard was no credit they just wanna be only behind the scene.

Nailed it

I consider myself so lucky so see Sabbath three times. At the time you don't realise just how lucky you are.

Genghis Kant Middle and ring finger tips of his right hand only.

@@clownpocket I thought that too, but if you check out the end of their documentary about the last tour where he is playing the piano it looks like both hands have missing parts.

Genghis Kant No. It’s pretty well documented what happened. His right hand only. But there are always truthers who find “clues” that “expose” a conspiracy or coverup. Maybe that’s you?
