On November 16, Eagle Rock will unveil HEAVEN & HELL "Neon Nights". This DVD and CD release captures the historic four-man army performing at the Wacken Open Air festival on July 30, 2009. [MSRP $14.98 for DVD, $13.98 for CD, Pre-book Order Date: October 22]
On this hot summer night, vocalist Ronnie James Dio, guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler, and drummer Vinny Appice commanded the stage, transcending the mere concept of a heavy metal concert. The strength and veracity of Dio's delivery, which has inspired three generations of metal vocalists, wrapped itself around each and every audience member. Butler's declarative bass lines, Iommi's legendary riffing, and Appice's unrelenting fills provide the forceful heartbeat behind anthems "Mob Rules", "Die Young", "Neon Knights", and namesake tune "Heaven And Hell".
The DVD also boasts 30th anniversary interviews with all four band members as a bonus feature. Personal one-on-ones are conducted with Ronnie, Tony, Geezer, and Vinny as they reflect on the making of their "Heaven And Hell" album. Additionally, the "Neon Nights" DVD has newly recorded personal tributes from Iommi, Appice, and Butler in memory of Dio.
