Today will be remembered as a black letter day in the world of metal. A day when we lost one of our greatest icons, Ronnie James Dio. Dio was truly the godfather of metal, and inspired numerous successful bands. He had an ability to weave magic in the hearts and souls of his listeners through his powerful singing. He was a lyrical mastermind, his tales of dungeons and dragons and mythical battles along with his enchanting voice got many listeners addicted to metal. His persona on stage was unparalleled, he always sang with great passion on the stage and his signature move the “devil's horns” has become a part and parcel of metal.
He was a gentleman, a musical genius and a pioneer, he truly was a star who got all of us “starstruck“.
