My grandson asked me grandpa what kind of music do you like. I pulled out VINAL and put Dio Caught in the Middle , full blast. Six year old dancing and laughing with joy at the sounds he was hearing. Thank you Ronnie for that moment. I am not ashamed for tears of joy
Saw many "shredders; at the Spectrum in '76 & '77. Every other Friday night there was a kick-ass rock concert there. Great times and many fried brain cells. :)
Same! There was a time in my life when I really pushed myself to the limits. This song immediately turned the tides, suddenly tiredness transformed info some kind of powerfull, dark energy! It's almost as if Dio somehow managed to turn this song into a spell, available for everyone to use, whenever in need. Thank you DIO!
What a great lesson for live musicians of any sorts! At 1:12 the second verse starts, however RJD starts singing the third verse instead, which is shorter than verses 1 and 2. At 1:26 Vivian Campbell moves on to the next section, following the length of the third verse, while the rest of the band keep playing the backing music of the second verse. Actually RJD improvised something to fill up for the space. But at 1:31 Vivian Campbell already recovered and they're all together again. So many decisions in a snap, the goal being the performance wouldn't suffer. It turned out great! I'm so glad they didn't edit this, it's 100% real live music.
1000%,.It's why you went to a Live concert back then..They were soo badazz,. They could play No wrong even when they played Wrong : ) Some people will NEVER UNDERSTAND~
Sometimes an artist is captured in time for that time. Not for the future, or for commercial success... I have seen 3 decades of 3 genres, and Vivian Campbell for those 3 years was as filthy as any guitarist can claim. There was probably a higher-ranked guitarist at that time...But in those 3 years, I would put Vivian Campbell against anyone ever. Too bad he didn t continue that path and went for the money instead.
Lyrics: It's the same old song You've gotta be somewhere at sometime They never let you fly It's like broken glass You get cut before you see it So open up your eyes You've got desire So let it out You've got the power Stand up and shout, shout Stand up and shout, shout You've got wings of steel But they never really move you You only seem to crawl You've been nailed to the wheel But never really turning You know you've got to want it all You've got desire So let it out You've got the power Stand up and shout, shout Stand up and shout Let it out You are the strongest chain And not just some reflection So never hide again You are the driver You own the road You are the fire go on explode You've got desire So let it out You've got the power Stand up and shout Stand up and shout Let it out Stand up and shout
I always loved listening to Jimmy Bain play bass and I agree that he was one of the best pick players out there as well as being as solid as a metronome while keeping time. I'm going to miss J.B. and I hope he's just chilling out with the rest of my favorite players waiting for the rest of us so we can all jam together. R.I.P. Jimmy
I'm 49 YRS old.I grew up in the 80s.I seen dio in concert plenty.but Vivian Campbell was his best guitarist.he is talented,fast and had stage presence.he looked fucking cool up there swinging that axe.
While we didn't have cell phones, tablets, internet, Pandora, youtube, etc. back in the 1980's when I was spending my teen years, we did have phenomenal bands, musicians and music. Metal, rock, pop, etc. it didn't matter what one was into, it was simply phenomenal. Today's music isn't even worth listening to for free on Pandora, radio, ect. Looking back 30+ years, I'm very fortunate to have grown up in the 1980's and seeing bands like Dio. R.I.P. Jimmy Bain.
Jacobin777 Yeah!!! Totally agreed!! I came in the us solely to go to live rock shows because nobody came where I was born. And man, did I see shows!!! Being in a line of work where I had to work weekends and holidays and nights, I even quit jobs to go rockin!!! Long live rock🤘
Man, what mad performace this was. Mad voice by Dio, goddamn mad drum skills by Vinny Appice and definetly MAD guitar skills by Vivian Campbell. God, this was awesome.
Absolutely LOVED this lineup with Vivian Campbell, Vinny appice, and Jimmy bain! What a tight rhythm section and Viv was one of the best young hard rock guitarists in the world. It's a shame it didn't last long
Both Ronnie and The Spectrum are no longer with us (RIP). Your thoughts are exactly what was missing from the next year's concert with Goldie. He's a fine guitarist, but looked constipated trying to keep up with Vinnie and the boys like Viv did. Viv was in front of the tempo, Goldie was playing from behind, big difference.
His voice was pure magic! Being able to perform live at this level of mastery is just insane and very rare if you think of today's Barbie Dolls not being able to reproduce what's on the record without and digital help.
Saw this tour in San Fran,Queensryche opened,So thankful for all his influence.Miss you're presence here on earth,but cant wait to rock with you once again when I get there..
Lucky enough to meet him on the Sacred Heart tour. Spent more time than he probably should talking guitar with me and my friend Andy. Class act. Still my Favorite!!!! Just when he left, Vinnie came out and hung with us. Totally cool memory.
Viv has recently hinted that he felt inferior to other more technical minded guitarist of the day, and now understands why he was so highly thought of. Energy! He had taste, speed and presence but that energy as displayed here propelled him to the top tier. Probably had a lot to do with his future direction. He didn't know how good he was.
That's really cool, I know Eddie felt the same way about Randy Rhoads. Energy! That's totally it - the solos on Sacred Heart are freaking amazing in their energy, in my opinion Craig Goldy could not follow anything Viv did in that sense. It's cool Viv realized what he is as a player & musician.
jonas brave Viv just smokes in this concert, and will always be a favorite. EVH was incredibly rhythmic. I have known guitarist that could play Malmsteen Arpeggios from Hell that just didn't have the rhythmic ability to play Atomic Punk. If you can play EVH, you are probably a decent drummer too.
Vivian's "future direction" which I'm assuming you mean Def Leppard lilkely has nothing to do with his techincal abilities as he could then and now play circles around Phil Colleen, it's about paying the bills. He probably makes a ton of money with Leppard and I don't blame him one bit for taking the gig. The reason why Iove Viv's style is that it was in the same vein of Gary Moore of that era, not a bad influence to have. So many great guitarists of that era who were pound for pound as solid or more as EVH and they are in no order...Moore, Vivian, Lynch, Lee,DiMartini,Schenker, Meneketti...all just brilliant.
long time ago, i see him perform 4 times live all over the world.... unforgettable for me.. i miss his dynamic voice... Best Male Metal Voice ever exist... R.I.P. Ronnie - you holy diver!
This was My first concert ever lower level left hand stage( the old spectrum was a good arena)...a story or two ....brought me right back..RIP Mr Ronnie James Dio
Love Dio-what a find it was when I was 12 in 1980! Knew exactly what kind of music was going to shape the rest of my life once I’d heard the great man🤘
When he hit the scene as a solo artist in 1983 I had no idea he was over 40. He had the energy and singing range of a 20 something. He was just simply AMAZING!
1:20 - Ronnie gets lost & sings the wrong lines for the 2nd VERSE, confusing the bass and messing up the guitar who sort of try to follow the singer out to chorus for two bars, but then go back to playing the verse. Verse 2 SHOULD go: You've got wings of steel But they never really move you You only seem to crawl You've been nailed to the wheel But never really turning You know you've got to want it all ^ what Dio does instead is sings the 3rd verse which has only three lines, then hesitates and makes up some words to rhyme with 'never hide again.' The music is SO messed up here but it's cool how the band recovers like 'ah no big deal!' 2:16 - here he sings the third verse here again because, hey, it's a good one!!
Haha! They made a good recovery. I've seen Dio do that on occasion. I think he would smoke a little weed before the show and kinda forget some lyrics. It's a wonderful little flaw. Adds danger. Amazing performance!
It's important to see that even the great ones make mistakes. Makes me feel better about my own performances (I am a singer) because I aspire to be as great as Dio, and I feel a lot of pressure to never mess up. Good to know that even he messed up sometimes.
yes,,,, i was fortunate enough to be at this concert tour,,, not this one concert in particular in this video, but the one in dallas, the last in line tour, great concert, i can't remember who opened, prolly because at the time, i couldn't wait for dio to be on stage. i also got to meet vivian campbell at the guitar show i believe that same year,?? not sure if it was that same year or not,,, maybe shortly after,, but he was great, nice guy, got his autograph,,,, and,,,, i couldn't believe how tiny he was, anyway, he is one of my all time favorite guitarist,, really love his style, and yes,,, what you folks saw in this video,,,, that's what he was doing live in concert the whole show. great concert, one of my all time favorite concerts ever, besides rush, and few others. long live the 80's!!!
first concert I ever went to. 1983 16 yrs in Nashville. Dio and Dokken. Will NEVER forget it. RJD is a legend. I bought this VHS tape in 1984 and played that sum bitch a thousand times. Sold it a few years ago and bought a bootleg dvd version. awesome performance and VC makes that guitar sound freaking WICKED. RIP RJD. we miss ya
First arena concert that I attended all those years ago.Twisted Sister opened up.Hard to avoid being nostalgic but damn was my adolescent mind blown! Ronnie and Jimmy return to "rock" forever
I was at this show! I saw Dio every time he came to the Spectrum. I even blew off my HS graduation ceremony to catch Dio in ‘86. No one rocked like Dio! RIP RJD
"WE NEED TO PROGRESS BACK TO THE 80'S LIKE THIS WITH OUR MUSIC MAKING LIKE MY CHANNEL. DIO IS A HEROIC ICON OF ROCK AND ROLL HISTORY. WE CAN NOT AFFORD TO REGRESS ANY MORE THEN WE ALREADY HAVE...BRING BACK THE FORCE OF THE 80'S ROCK AND ROLL..OUR FUTURE DEPENDS ON IT"....ROCKIN ROY / TH-cam
I saw a lot of concerts at the Spectrum when I was stationed at Ft Dix in 76-77. Every other Friday night, which matched up perfectly with my paychecks, there was a kick-ass rock concert there. My friends and I got completely wasted for the weekend. LOL
First concert I was let into by the security guard in Seattle at the Coliseum. 1983...incredible...epic. Knights fighting with swords on stage...laser beams bouncing off the metal...Dio in the center...ten's of thousands of screaming fans...\m/
I agree with you my friend, Vivian Campbell became a prostitute joining Def Leppard. I still remember those years when Def Leppard was a great and respectable band, unfortunately those days are gone since they decided to produce cheap commercial music. I will always admire Dio because he always kept loyal to his roots and style. Long live the King.

Hell Yes!
My daughter's 4.... nonno got her cultured to dio
Grandparenting done right!
What and singer !
Shredders of the 80s are the real deal.
Saw many "shredders; at the Spectrum in '76 & '77. Every other Friday night there was a kick-ass rock concert there. Great times and many fried brain cells. :)
vivian tore shit up but his comments years later about ronnie can never be forgiven
@Graham Clark Goldy was just as good.
@@therealistintheboot8822 Goldy was technically better, but Vivian wrote the classic Dio songs and solos.....
Lmfao@@joewalker511
This is the song that I listen to whenever I feel like shit and within seconds, I'm on top of the world. It's fucking awesome.
Same! There was a time in my life when I really pushed myself to the limits. This song immediately turned the tides, suddenly tiredness transformed info some kind of powerfull, dark energy! It's almost as if Dio somehow managed to turn this song into a spell, available for everyone to use, whenever in need. Thank you DIO!
"You're the strongest chain. Just not some reflection. So never hide again!!!" Ronnie has alot of power and speaks directly to you. Move forward.
me 2
There’s so much power, emotion and energy in this song. I agree
What age are you? 9?
What a great lesson for live musicians of any sorts!
At 1:12 the second verse starts, however RJD starts singing the third verse instead, which is shorter than verses 1 and 2.

I'm so glad they didn't edit this, it's 100% real live music.
1000%,.It's why you went to a Live concert back then..They were soo badazz,.
They could play No wrong even when they played Wrong : )
Some people will NEVER UNDERSTAND~
I heard it too! Vivian goes in the bridge for a while but come back on the verse instantly, they were real musicians!
Vivian Campbell...Back when his guitar playing could be heard.What a monster player he was!
It's a shame he's wasting away in Def Leppard.
Still 🤘s with last in line
You can really pick up on his Gary Moore influence with that speed playing!!
Amazing!!!
@@jimthar17 so true, waste of talent beng in Leppard
When Vivian Campbell plays a lead, a lead has been played !
Right on!👍🏽
He should be leading a band instead of languishing in Def Leopard.
@@MikeJones-oe3do Check out the Last in Line band! Viv is back to actual guitar playing!
He missed almost every note of it, but with that presence on the stage...
@@canalmarco888 that's why your writing..and has playing...MAAARCO.
I can't believe Vivian was just 22 here, and he played like a monster.
Sometimes an artist is captured in time for that time. Not for the future, or for commercial success... I have seen 3 decades of 3 genres, and Vivian Campbell for those 3 years was as filthy as any guitarist can claim. There was probably a higher-ranked guitarist at that time...But in those 3 years, I would put Vivian Campbell against anyone ever. Too bad he didn t continue that path and went for the money instead.
Nobody noticed Dio jumped ahead with the lyrics but they caught it and he totally played it off. Master of Reality! DIO RULES!
Yeah the band was rushing so bad Ronnie couldn't quite keep up.
Nerves I guess of a set opener
Wow, all these years and I never noticed. Thanks.
A true Dio fan would know that ... didn't matter .. Dio pulled it off like the master he was !!
Lyrics:
It's the same old song
You've gotta be somewhere at sometime
They never let you fly
It's like broken glass
You get cut before you see it
So open up your eyes
You've got desire
So let it out
You've got the power
Stand up and shout, shout
Stand up and shout, shout
You've got wings of steel
But they never really move you
You only seem to crawl
You've been nailed to the wheel
But never really turning
You know you've got to want it all
You've got desire
So let it out
You've got the power
Stand up and shout, shout
Stand up and shout
Let it out
You are the strongest chain
And not just some reflection
So never hide again
You are the driver
You own the road
You are the fire go on explode
You've got desire
So let it out
You've got the power
Stand up and shout
Stand up and shout
Let it out
Stand up and shout
The look on his face acknowledges the screw up at 01:48
I was there! The end of 84 and again in the spring of 85 for the sacred heart tour. I'm an old man now, but I was a kid then.
I like the fact that everyone in the band performs at 150% faster than the studio version!
so true
Vivian Campbell, another legend
Vivian's solo is just unreal!👍🏽
Vivian was the real deal
Seen Dio 5 times at the spectrum great show. God bless him
r.i.p Jimmy bain. one of the best pick bass players in heavy metal

Jacobin777 now all you have is your music and Co morbidities
Oscar M u suck
Same here, saw them in Philly too. Just the lighters in our hands.
Hey Buddy I agree I was around in the '80's and it was a decade rich in musical innovation.
Dio , Jimmy , Cozy ....jamming in heaven ..
NO. Cozy hated dio
YEEAHH!!! DIO with Vivian live in '84!! and in Pennsylvania too!! Doesn't get much better than that!! 🤘
Man, what mad performace this was. Mad voice by Dio, goddamn mad drum skills by Vinny Appice and definetly MAD guitar skills by Vivian Campbell. God, this was awesome.
Dont forget Jimmy Bain on bass, a major contributor to this band
The Appice/Bain solid rock makes things happen.
Vivian Campbell deserves so much more recognition.
+Some Guy on the Internet Campbell was a monster player. Cutting edge stuff really at that time.
Some Guy on the Internet vivian was just good as George lynch
He was only 22 years old when he did this
You gotta love the awesome stages back in the day.
Absolutely LOVED this lineup with Vivian Campbell, Vinny appice, and Jimmy bain! What a tight rhythm section and Viv was one of the best young hard rock guitarists in the world. It's a shame it didn't last long
Gives me chills!
Everything about this is BEAST!
Vivian just DESTROYING it
This is my favorite concert film from them! I think all of the members of the band were at their peaks. ..lots of energy...
Both Ronnie and The Spectrum are no longer with us (RIP). Your thoughts are exactly what was missing from the next year's concert with Goldie.

라이브를 녹음보다 더 잘하는 디오같은 밴드가 있으까?
형님! 그립습니다 ㅠㅠ.
His voice was pure magic! Being able to perform live at this level of mastery is just insane and very rare if you think of today's Barbie Dolls not being able to reproduce what's on the record without and digital help.
awesome....nobody did it like DIO and this particular lineup.vivian absolutely shreds during this entire concert
This line up of Dio gives me goose bumps 🤘
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD
THE BEST SHOW EVER!!
One of the best!
wild!
Man that's freakin rocking! What an amazing voice! This dude was on fire back in the day
Saw this tour in San Fran,Queensryche opened,So thankful for all his influence.Miss you're presence here on earth,but cant wait to rock with you once again when I get there..

Inferior WTF
Any musician worth his salt feels a little inferior. You take it with you every time you play and you wind up doing some amazing shit.

Dio fue, es y será insuperable. La voz del Heavy Metal.
My first stop in the Time Machine without a doubt
I was front row Long Beach Arena for this concert.
I saw that epic concert when Dio played in Canada in the mid 80's RIP Ronnie
Shredding guitar with Dio. And a great message in the lyrics too.
I 1st saw this concert on vhs lol! I rented it and I was ecstatic at what I was witnessing
I saw it live .. for the life of me I can’t remember who opened up for him ..
I was there!! Was at Archbishop Ryan High School, at this time, Ronnie,”. Philly, My favorite place”! Rock from above!! 🎸🎤
Dio is most excellent. And these particular band members are as well...
Love this, simple, fast and to the point! Thank you Ronnie James Dio!
long time ago, i see him perform 4 times live all over the world.... unforgettable for me.. i miss his dynamic voice... Best Male Metal Voice ever exist... R.I.P. Ronnie - you holy diver!
killer song. never listened to dio, but then i stumbled upon this masterpiece. ultimate driving music. but i dont drive. lol.
there will never be such great concerts again
This was My first concert ever lower level left hand stage( the old spectrum was a good arena)...a story or two ....brought me right back..RIP Mr Ronnie James Dio
The 27 people who dislike this obviously don’t know what real music is all about. Long live rock n roll. So stand up and shout!!!! Long live DIO
The band is on fire, especially Vivian. I like that he mess up and jumps to the chorus too early but he recovers. Dio gives him the evil eye.
Phenomenal video , and Ronnie so Powerfully, FANS love YOU, and YOU loved this, shout🤘💋🎶
Love Dio-what a find it was when I was 12 in 1980! Knew exactly what kind of music was going to shape the rest of my life once I’d heard the great man🤘
When he hit the scene as a solo artist in 1983 I had no idea he was over 40. He had the energy and singing range of a 20 something. He was just simply AMAZING!
Well, that was about the equivalent of a hail of 10,000 bullets screaming towards a Bieber target. Incredible piece of music.
It doesn't get better than this...pure rock adrenalin!
I loved this concert gorwing up Vivian Cambell was like white hot that night like Michael Jordan in his prime. I never seen anything like it.
We need this in blu-ray !!PLEASE!
Ronnie James Dio immortal legend!
1:20 - Ronnie gets lost & sings the wrong lines for the 2nd VERSE, confusing the bass and messing up the guitar who sort of try to follow the singer out to chorus for two bars, but then go back to playing the verse. Verse 2 SHOULD go:

2:16 - here he sings the third verse here again because, hey, it's a good one!!
Noticed that too. A funny lil cock-up
Awesome that they left it in there..
Haha! They made a good recovery. I've seen Dio do that on occasion. I think he would smoke a little weed before the show and kinda forget some lyrics. It's a wonderful little flaw. Adds danger. Amazing performance!
It's important to see that even the great ones make mistakes. Makes me feel better about my own performances (I am a singer) because I aspire to be as great as Dio, and I feel a lot of pressure to never mess up. Good to know that even he messed up sometimes.
I thought I heard a f up. I thought I was hearing things. They recovered pretty well anyway.....

first concert I ever went to. 1983 16 yrs in Nashville. Dio and Dokken. Will NEVER forget it. RJD is a legend. I bought this VHS tape in 1984 and played that sum bitch a thousand times. Sold it a few years ago and bought a bootleg dvd version. awesome performance and VC makes that guitar sound freaking WICKED. RIP RJD. we miss ya

Vinnie.
This was a good performance!
I was there..Magic!Philly loved YOU!
Dio is God. God pf Metal and everything else.
I saw this tour. Amazing
Dios smile always seemed of pure enjoyment and excitement to me. 0 vanity. 0 negative thoughts while onstage. Just enjoying himself and the music.
jesus the force behind his voice is magical he was and always will be the god of metal rest is peace ronnie your missed by many
Saw them just a few days earlier in Seattle with Whitesnake opening. Loud and absolutely roasting hot in the arena.
I saw a lot of concerts at the Spectrum when I was stationed at Ft Dix in 76-77. Every other Friday night, which matched up perfectly with my paychecks, there was a kick-ass rock concert there. My friends and I got completely wasted for the weekend. LOL
I was at this show ! one of my favorite ,, used to go to the Spectrum once a week if not more in the 80s \m/
I was in high school when this came out, amazing!!!!
this changed my life!!!
FUUUCK!!! I was born in the wrong time, man... I wanted to experience the 80's! Not the crappy stoner 90s...
Love Ya just the same boy ....
First concert I was let into by the security guard in Seattle at the Coliseum. 1983...incredible...epic. Knights fighting with swords on stage...laser beams bouncing off the metal...Dio in the center...ten's of thousands of screaming fans...\m/
+Flavius Quintori we might know each other
I hear ya, my first concert was Rush in '79 when I was 15
I missed this tour but caught Dio on the Dream evil tour at the Spectrum in 1988!! Dio was amazing!
What singers today wish they could be
I wish I could have seen them in 84, but at least I got to see them in 88, awesome show!
My God Vivian Campbell, what happened to you!!
I agree with you my friend, Vivian Campbell became a prostitute joining Def Leppard. I still remember those years when Def Leppard was a great and respectable band, unfortunately those days are gone since they decided to produce cheap commercial music. I will always admire Dio because he always kept loyal to his roots and style. Long live the King.
My first concert (15 yrs old) and the best.
and that's how we rocked in the 80s,...kiddies
Yeah the 80's, you were either there or you just don't understand!
The Master of Heavy Speed Metal Mr. RONNIE JAMES DIO. Spectacular Song.
