Dio- Holy Diver (Joe Barresi Remix Ed) (DLX)
Super deluxe four CD set. The collection comes with two versions of Holy Diver. The first is a new mix of the album made by Joe Barresi (Tool, Queens of the Stone Age, Slipknot). The second is a newly remastered version of the original 1983 mix. The Super Deluxe Edition also features a previously unreleased recording of the quartet performing live in 1983 at Selland Arena in Fresno, California during the Holy Diver Tour. This set also revisits the Holy Diver recording sessions to uncover unreleased outtakes for several album cuts, including unheard takes for "Invisible," "Straight Through The Heart," and a version of "Rainbow In The Dark" that boasts an alternative guitar solo. There's also an early version of "Evil Eyes," a song that would resurface on Dio's 1984 follow-up album, The Last in Line. A selection of rarities rounds out the new collection with mono and stereo 7" single edits for "Rainbow In The Dark" and a version of "Evil Eyes" that was released in 1983 as the B-side to "Holy Diver."
