Why? Because Ronnie James Dio, prominent heavy metal vocalist for many bands like Black Sabbath, Rainbow, Dio, passed away on the 16th of May 2010.

He is the voice behind Holy Diver and Heaven And Hell, if the only clue you have of good ol’ heavy metal is from classic rock compilation albums.

He was in Tenacious D’s Pick Of Destiny movie, in an unforgettable scene:

The lineup of Black Sabbath when Ronnie James Dio was in it, returned again under the name Heaven & Hell. They toured to Fort Canning, Singapore, where I managed to catch him!

A stage moment with Vinny Appice, Geezer Butler, and the plastic-fingered Tony Iommi as Heaven & Hell, in 2007!
