    Available Now: mercury-studio...
    Filmed at London's Hammersmith Apollo on 12th December 1993 this previously unreleased concert film captures the then newly reformed Dio on the last night of their European tour in support of the "Strange Highways" album. With a line-up of Ronnie James Dio (vocals), Vinny Appice (drums), Jeff Pilson (bass) and Tracy G (guitar) the band delivered a blistering performance on tracks from their new album, previous Dio classics and favourites from Ronnie's career with Black Sabbath and Rainbow. So take a ride on "Strange Highways" and be blown away by one of the greatest rock bands of all time.

    What I like about guitarist Tracy G. here is the way he alternates between (1) super heavy riffing reminiscent of Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi and (2) innovative, almost jazz-like complexity.

    Strange Highways is such a great album. Top-3 favorite by Dio for me. Love its dark and ultra heavy sound. Tracy G. was a great guitarist in my opinion, almost like he was taking Iommi's sound and playing it with Viv Campbell's energy and style. Dare I say that I also like this album more than Dehumanizer? They sound like sibling records, but I find this being slightly better.

      No way is S.H. better than Dehumanizer. Dehumanizer other than Time Machine had no filler and was heavier and overall better written. Computer God, Master Of Insanity, Letters From Earth, I....S.H doesn't have such tracks, but its really good

    • @JackieNihil
      @JackieNihil Před rokem

      @@Annihilation_0f_The_Wicked9066 I'll give Dehumanizer an upper hand for stronger consistency, as SH starts off kind of weak with "Jesus..." and "Firehead". But from the title-track onwards I think it's just a banger record. That's usually how I listen to it; skip the first two tracks and let the title-track open it (I wonder why they didn't let it open the album as it works perfectly). It's a non-stop banger that way. While it's a cool album, Dehumanizer is just far from my fave Sabbath album and my least fave Sab with RJD.
      Personally I just find meself listening to SH a whole lot more (quite regularly), whereas I barely ever revisit Dehumanizer. While RJD is my all-time fave singer, I do like Sabbath with Ozzy the best, then with Tony Martin second. Dio the band is a top-10 to me, so when I wanna hear RJD I usually just put Dio on (1983-1993 era). To each their own, of course.

    Anyone who thinks Tracy G is a hack knows nothing of song structure, tone or feeling. Tracy could shred most of you right out of your diapers! He knows his fretboard like you know your way home. How many of you could start a note on a bend at the 16th fret and have any idea what going on? Few I bet. When Dio choses a guitarist to be his gunslinger for as many years as he had Tracy G, I’ll happily take his opinion over your any day!

    Strange Highways
    Dio
    It's a crazy world we live in
    And I'm leaving it today
    For another institution
    We crazy people play
    Every time I climb the mountain
    And it turned into a hill
    I promised me that I'd move on
    And I will.
    I, I, good for nothing
    Going nowhere, so they say
    Hey, someone give me blessings
    For they say that I have sinned
    That when I crawl inside myself
    And ride into the wind
    On Strange Highways
    On Strange Highways
    Hey you! I want your number
    Don't even wonder
    We do things our way here
    Questions
    These are forbidden
    We got no answers
    Believe us anyway
    So here is my confession,
    It's the only broken rule
    Sometimes I crawl inside of me
    Where I can be the fool
    On Strange Highways
    On Strange Highways
    You can see the other side
    And you shall come over
    You can't leave the other side
    If you say I will
    Every time I climb the mountain
    And it turned into a hill
    Well, I promised me
    I'd disappear
    And now I know I will
    So, someone give me blessings
    For the times you say I've sinned
    So I can crawl inside myself
    And ride into the wind
    On Strange Highways
    On Strange Highways
    Questions
    They're forbidden
    Hey you, what's your number
    Oh, we've got no answers
    Don't you even wonder
