Best Dio guitarist.


Whose name is not Blackmore or Iommi.

My vote is for Vivian Campbell.

I don't have a clue who any of the DIO guitarists have been before or since Blackmore, but from the material I've heard, they all sound prety much alike, or they all use the same gear and they all sound like 100's if not 1,000's of other generic "metal" guitarists. CHug Chug Chug, Whine,Chug Chug Whine, it's soooo boring. RJD is a really great singer, perhaps the best rock voice ever but I used also to think DIO was a great writer, based on the Rainbow stuff, until I heard all the Holy Diver and other DIO solo stuff, basically it's relatively just drivel. Generic drivel, it sounds so generic it's almost like it was produced in a factory or something. Rock N Roll Children was good, but it sounds like an Iommi leftover or it was written by someone else!

I'm going with Goldy, too. I thought he had a little more to offer in terms of variety in playing style compared to Campbell. Although, Campbell has been able to show more variety since leaving Dio.

Close call, though.

Re: Best Dio guitarist.


For guitarists in the band Dio, my vote will have to go with Vivian Campbell (such a shame that he is wasting away in Def Leppard).

However, if you want to include the guys from Elf, I will have to say that the best guitarist Dio has worked with would have to be Rock Feinstein.

Are you saying Dio made a mistake joining Blackmore in 75? emoticon
