Ronnie James Dio

Ronnie James Dio’s discography is so extensive that you almost forget he recorded 10 albums with his own self-named band.

What never changed was that distinctive voice, a singular instrument whose range and power were obvious from the first.

To commemorate the fifth anniversary of Dio’s death, the Ronnie James Dio Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund is planning a weekend tribute for the vocalist.

Ronnie James Dio's widow Wendy is organizing a fifth anniversary memorial at his graveside in Los Angeles, and fans from around the world are invited.

The Ronnie James Dio Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund has made a significant donation to the Houston Cancer Center.

The new Ronnie James Dio tribute album is a fitting tribute to the man's legacy.

Hear the original versions of the Dio, Rainbow and Black Sabbath songs being covered on the upcoming Ronnie James Dio tribute album 'This is Your Life.'

Metallica have unveiled their contribution to the upcoming Ronnie James Dio tribute album 'This is Your Life' -- and it's a stunning, nine-minute long medley featuring four songs from the singer's time in Rainbow.

The accolades keep coming for the late Ronnie James Dio, as the Syracuse Area Music Hall of Fame is the latest to pay homage to the rocker. Tonight (March 6), the singer's son Dan Padavona, will be on hand to accept the organization's Lifetime Achievement Award on behalf of his late father.

It's still hard to believe that perhaps metal's greatest voice, Ronnie James Dio, was silenced over three years ago. In celebration of Dio's life and unparalleled career, many of rock and metal's biggest names have joined forces to record the ultimate tribute album, 'Ronnie James Dio: This is Your Life.'
