May 8, 20187 yr Excellent call. Haven't see that in a while. I will close with Dio when he was with Sabbath Ok so the question is - Is Dio the greatest metal singer of all time? Better than Dickinson, Ozzy, Halford?For my money. Yes.

Dio and Dickinson gave the best live performances that I ever saw. Those are my top two. Edited May 8, 20187 yr by BurntOrangeCrush
May 9, 20187 yr Author Man movie soundtracks with big time hits were such a part of the decade. I might have missed it, but has anyone hit on Visionquest yet?
May 9, 20187 yr Author I might have had a crush on Madonna, and it's possible that it peaked with her appearance in this video. The Material Girl was great, but looked a little too refined for me. Nightclub-Madonna was more my speed...
May 9, 20187 yr Author Another one from the Visionquest soundtrack, the video maybe wasn't anything special, but the song is just so freaking cool:
May 9, 20187 yr Author And finally, for those involved in the Ronnie James Dio discussion, I always dug this one from the Visionquest soundtrack:
May 9, 20187 yr Not going to contend it's the best, but you guys suck for not posting this (I didn't see it, anyway). James Todd also responsible for one of the more memorable unplugged performances, at 12:45 Edited May 9, 20187 yr by TwiceHorn

Think of how much tougher it must have been in 1983 to create the visual effects of those ever-changing TV monitors. I liked the Raiders theme in Don't Cry, too. "We're here for the Duran Duran video."

I remember both Ah Leah and Love is Like a Rock but this is the first time I've ever seen a video of him. The visual does not match the voice at all. Looks a lot more like Morris Gardenia than Donnie Iris.

I remember hearing a radio ("Rockline"?) interview with Tom Cochrane where he said he heard of the death of John Lennon on his way to the studio to record the vocal.

His little treat because he knew none of us had MTV. It was during this video that I was informed by said teacher that John Fogerty had a band before he went out on his own. I don't remember much from the class, but I remember that.
