A Decade of Dio: 1983-1993

Ronnie James Dio’s sinister howl and wicked songcraft bewitched hard rock fans in the Seventies and Eighties during his memorable stints with Elf, Rainbow, and Black Sabbath. In 1983, the singer formed his own band, launching a successful solo career that culminated in 10 studio albums and sales of more than 10 million records worldwide.

Rhino follows Dio through the band’s early years with A DECADE OF DIO: 1983-1993, a boxed set that brings together the group’s first six studio albums, with 2016 remastered audio. It includes: HOLY DIVER (1983), THE LAST IN LINE (1984), SACRED HEART (1985), DREAM EVIL (1987), LOCK UP THE WOLVES (1990), and STRANGE HIGHWAYS (1993).

The set includes artwork by Marc Sasso, who was responsible for many of the band’s iconic covers.
