        _LLRnR_ is an *ok* album (I mean, how great can an album be with
        THAT title track - save by Manowar?).

        I think Dio's best work, **by far**, is on the Rainbow _Live!_
        album.  Besides being BLACKMORE'S best work, Dio is nuts on
        "Mistreated" and "Catch The Rainbow."
