Dio-The Studio Albums 1996-2004

Ronnie James Dio is a legend, a status assured by numerous albums and live performances across the decades.

This newest release, studio albums from 1996-2004, takes in the last studio work he did as a solo artist before his untimely death.

It contains a whole host of classics including “Institutional Man,” “Black,” “Hunter of the Heart,” and “Stay Out of My Mind,” from 1996’s Angry Machines.

We then move into 2000’s Magica, another seminal classic with songs such as “Lord of The Last Day,” “Turn To Stone,” and “Challis,” showing the maestro at work.

Killing The Dragon then hits full throttle and continues the great man’s legendary work.

Master Of The Moon finishes things off in style with the title track and “The Man Who Would Be King,” delivering the swan song.

The classic set are out on 22nd September via BMG.
