Off the back of the release of "Holy Diver", arguably the finest hard rock album to come out of 1983 and a second serving of rock genius in 1984's "The Last In Line", DIO found themselves in embarking on a sell-out world tour.
Delivering concert performances of the highest calibre and putting on the kind of value-for-money show that had become something of a lost art, the "Holy Diver" world tour won the band adulation from fans, critics and fellow musicians alike.
Conscious of the success of this world tour, DIO's frontman and namesake, Ronnie James Dio, felt it was only right to spotlight the songs that had delighted legions of dedicated fans and the live-in-concert footage featured here (from Philadelphia and Utrecht, the latter a very early performance) shows just how exciting shows the first couple of years must have been. And then, of course, there's the added bonus of a brand new interview with Ronnie (recorded in Belgium earlier this year), in which he talks in detail about the "Holy Diver" album, and the background to the project in general. The approximately 100-minute DVD comes complete with a fold-out DIO poster.
