Tonight's Music

    From a web archive of Rolling Stone.

    It wasn't just his mighty pipes that made him Ronnie James Dio — it was his moral fervor. With Black Sabbath classics like "Heaven and Hell," or Eighties solo classics like "Holy Diver" and "The Last in Line," what always stood out was Dio's raging compassion for the lost rock & roll children in his audience, his fiercely anti-clerical religiosity, his hatred for the kings and queens who blind our eyes and steal our dreams.
    ...
    Dio never pretended to be one of the kids — he sang as an adult assuring us that we weren't alone in our suffering, and some day we might even be proud of conquering it.
