Songs Of My Life #26 - Last In Line - Martyr - 2016

Songs Of My Life #26.

A couple of years ago there was a great reformation as such of the band lineup that recorded the first three Dio albums - minus of course the sadly departed Ronnie James Dio. After some gigs playing those great songs, the line up of guitarist Vivian Campbell, bass guitarist Jimmy Bain, drummer Vinny Appice and keyboardist Claude Schnell, along with new lead vocalist Andrew Freeman decided to go the next step and record an album of new material.

The album Heavy Crown was released last week. One of the songs of it is here, Martyr, which to me contains the best of that old sound and the new attitude. It's well worth a listen.
