Death of a legend

Ronnie James Dio
I have been really inconsistent with posting blogs, i blame it on being sick a lot and the fact that not much has inspired me to write lately. Today however, i heard of the passing of Ronny James Dio, the lead singer of Black Sabbath who had an absolutley amazing voice.
I always thought Ozzy was Sabbath's lead singer, but i heard about the two singers and decided to see what Dio was like. The first song i ever heard was 'heaven and hell', and it completely blew me away. Every time i hear the intro i get shivers, it is just one of those songs that has really stuck with me. The whole 'heaven and hell' album was amazing, his voice was so distinctive and powerful; his voice was one you could instantly recognise.
So anyway back to this afternoon, this is no lie, i feel like listening to 'heaven and hell' while i read the latest news etc. and there it is, right in front of me: Ronnie Dio dead at 67- from stomach cancer of all things. It is truly a tragedy when someone so talented dies, today more than ever the music industry could use someone like that to give them credibility.
Anyway i just wanted to say my little piece about Dio, his music means a lot to me and it has always made things a little bit better.
R.I.P.
