Best guitarist Ronnie has ever worked with

[DioInfinitum]

I want to say 'both' Tony and Ritchie.

I think the 'best' music w/DIo came working with these two men.

Yes, Holy Diver was awesome, but I don't enjoy most of Dio's solo stuff as much as the material that came from these particular guitarists.

But the solo stuff is still awesome. I was introduced to Ronnie's music via Last In Line. I knew nothing of the older stuff, but was blown away when I saw Ronnie interviewed in his house on an old VHS magazine thing called Hard and Heavy.

Holy Diver is probably the lone Dio solo work that stands out as a definite classic like the Rainbow and B.Sabbath material.

Blackmore is Eddie Van Halens guitar hero, that says alot, but I voted for Viv C.

Aldrich, as good as he is, shows up in too many places for me.

Ritchie is the best guitarist of them all for sure and my favourite ever, Tony is riff genious, Viv was very fast and it was importand then, Rowan is very underrated. he has great feeling. Doug's technique is awesome too, Tracy is a good player and Goldy is my least favourite

No offence to Iommi but Blackmore has a dimension and vision Iommi just couldn`t muster. PowerKnight
