Off the back of the release of \'Holy Diver\', to many the finest hard rock album to come out of 1983 and a second serving of rock genius in 1984\'s \'The Last In Line\', Dio found themselves in embarking on a sell-out world tour.

Delivering concert performances of the highest calibre and putting on the kind of value-for-money show that had become something of a lost art, the Holy Diver world tour won the band adulation from fans, critics and fellow musicians alike.

Conscious of the success of this world tour, Ronnie James Dio felt it was only right to spotlight the songs that had delighted legions of dedicated fans and the live-in-concert footage featured here.

The main concert was recorded at The Spectrum in Philadelphia, US. Seven more songs were recorded in Utrecht, The Netherlands during a very early performance. It shows just how exciting shows the first couple of years must have been.

There\'s something very satisfying about seeing the original line-up, featuring Vinny Appice on drums, going for it in such a brazen manner, urged along by crowds in full knowledge of every word and phrase.

And then, of course, there\'s the added bonus of a brand new interview with Ronnie, in which he talks in detail about the \'Holy Diver\' album, and the background to the project in general. Myth-laden hard rock has never had a better spokesman!
