I loved this album when it first came out. I became a huge Dio Fan because of it.

The first Rainbow album I ever bought. Still have it on vinyl somewhere. I think probably right next to the furnace with the rest of my vinyl, to make sure they stay nice and dry.

All joking aside, this is a hell of an album. Just listened to it a few weeks back

Me, too. But at the time I was like 16 or so and had no clue who Dio was and what he would go on to become. I just knew this album was a staple at a lot of the parties I went to.
