Universal Music To Release Two Classic Dio Concerts On DVD! Posted By: Becky Hoyle, Assistant Editor September 8th 16th, 2005
Universal Music has announced the
October 3 DVD release of We Rock — a live-in-concert Dio
extravaganza boasting two knock-out concerts filmed during Dio's
1983-1984 Holy Diver world tour. 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 "We Rock" DVD (view cover here) track
