Ronnie James Dio, one of heavy metal's all-time greatest singers, died less
than a year after being diagnosed with stomach cancer on May 16th,
2010. He was 67. With his powerful signature vocals and doom-laden
lyrics, Ronnie James Dio fronted several iconic bands during his
career: Elf, Rainbow, Black Sabbath , Heaven & Hell and, of
course, DIO.
Renowned
music photographer PG Brunelli travelled the world with Ronnie from
1983, photographing him onstage, backstage, at home and in the
recording studio. This special, large format hardback book takes the
best of PG's photography and weaves a memoir of Ronnie's life
starting onstage at Donington Monsters of Rock in 1983. Together with
unique written contributions from Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford, Doug
Aldrich and many of his peers, colleagues and fellow professionals.
This photographic memoir has been compiled with the knowledge and
approval of Ronnies wife, Wendy.
"Ronnie
James Dio: A Photographic Memoir" is due out on November 7th.
