Dio - Awsome voice! Awsome band! Not so awsome songs during the Sabbath Dio era.
You are entitled to your opinion of course, but I thought those first two Sabbath albums with Dio had some amazing songs (Heaven and Hell, Die Young, Neon Knights, Mob rules, Turn up the night, Country Girl etc). Some of the best stuff Dio has been involved in. The Dio solo stuff started well but each album was worse than its predecessor. He isn't to everyones taste but he has some set of lungs on him. Can't believe he is 67!

Example, I saw Jonny Lang a few nights ago. They performed great, but the songs were substandard and not memorable.
Sabbath will always be Ozzy's band, but Dio is the better singer. Ian Gillan is a great singer, but the Sabbath/Gillan period is not memorable.
