As I promised yesterday, here is now the kind of Ronnie James Dio
discography I have at this moment. This is not by any means complete;
it has only the Dio records I have. There are lots of Ronnie James Dio
records from 1958-70s which are not yet in my collection. If someone
has ____Anything____ not mentioned below, contact me ____now____!


This is the first part of this list. This contains only records, CDs
etc and the second part contains all kind of memorabilia.

List of Ronnie James Dio's records

If you have any records to add to this list, please let me know. I'll probably
be very interested in buying them and I'll pay good price of them. I'm mainly
interested in Dio bootlegs and '50s and '60s records from Ronnie James Dio's
old bands.

Instructions how to read the list

The list contains these fields:

1 .. Record type                      If there is for example "2-" in front
      7" = 7" single                  of these types, it means the item is
     10" = 10" single                 double something. So 2-LP means double
     12" = 12" single                 LP.
     CD  = Compact Disc
     CDs = Compact Disc Single
     LP  = Long Play record (vinyl)
     VHS = Video Tape (PAL (=European standard) unless noted in field 2)

2 .. General comments
     There are lots of different things on this field. Here are some of
     them, the rest should be easily understood without any descriptions.

        acetate = the very first record; normally only one pressed. Used for
                  testing the quality of pressing etc. Made on metallic disc
                  with thin layer of vinyl.

                  promo.
        sticker = has a sticker glued on the sleeves.
      testpress = a record which has been made only for testing purposes.
     titlestrip = a paper strip over the edge of the record, normally only in
                  Japanese pressings.
       tourpass = backstage pass for tour.
          uncut = a record which was meant to be shaped disc but was either
                  accidentally or purposefully left to be circular.
             w/ = abbreviation for word 'with'.

3 .. Catalog number
     In some cases you can order records with catalog numbers, unless the
     record is already sold out. This number is usually bit different in
     different countries. Record labels use often different numbering
     standard. If unknown (doesn't appear on sleeves or on record itself)
     this field is left blank.

     If this is not visible on sleeves or on record or otherwise known for
     sure, this field is left blank.

6 .. Band name (if not mentioned, band is Dio) and record title
     On singles, the name is usually the title of the first song on side A,
     unless stated otherwise either on record or sleeves. There are some
     comments of my own on some of the records, they're in brackets ([]).
     If the record in question is a live bootleg, there is usually the
     date of the recording and the length of the record. Here are
     descriptions of some comments:

     CDN = Canada
     m/s = mono / stereo versions
     MTV = Music TeleVision (normally European version of MTV)
