The above-mentioned Holy Diver by Dio, along with Cuts Like A Knife by Bryan Adams, have just now been listed at Amazon as January 31st releases:

  

(At the time that I'm posting this, the Dio disc is already pre-orderable but Adams isn't.)

Surprised he didn't choose Reckless for Adams; it sold about 10 times more than Cut.

I have the Holy Diver remaster from a few years back, so I'm good.

Now, if Herr Hoffman wants to deliver a gold disc of The Last In Line, my interest would be piqued!

:yay:

Best not Geff, MOFI's "Reckless" Gold CD really kicks. One of their stellar efforts.
I would have passed, but for "Cut Like a Knife", I'm so in!

Dio’s ‘Holy Diver’ To Be Released In Newly Remastered Version
by: Billy Dukes

One of the Top 25 metal albums of all time is being reissued this month. Dio‘s ‘Holy Diver,’ originally released in 1983, will be available on Jan. 31.

The never version will feature all nine original songs and a “two-page spread of the photo-montage LP liner, with images from both (Dio’s) Rainbow and Black Sabbath days, that was included on the original release.”

A statement from Audio Fidelity also says the reissue is mastered by specialist Steve Hoffman, and includes hits like ‘Stand Up and Shout,’ ‘Straight Through the Heart’ and ‘Rainbow in the Dark.’

The album is considered by many to be the band’s best work and now fans will get to hear it straight from the original 1983 studio tapes.

IGN Entertainment listed ‘Holy Diver’ at No. 8 on its list of Top 25 Metal Albums. It was made soon after singer Ronnie James Dio left Sabbath in 1982. Over the next ten years it would go on to achieve platinum certification in the U.S. and Silver certification in Britain.

Looking forward to it too.Reckless is a good album however I feel Cuts is more varied and generally not as much one dimensional stadium fair . The AF followup in my opinion should be Into The Fire arguably Bryan's best artistically.

While I'd like to get a remastered The Last In Line, those mini-LP CDs tend to be pricey and the bonus material wasn't that enticing, though I can't remember what the bonus cuts are.

I thought only The Last In Line and Sacred Heart are getting the 2-disc mini-LP SHM treatment. Holy Diver, The Last In Line, Sacred Heart, and Dream Evil have just been released as regular SHM CDs with 2005 and 2007 masterings.

Kym, Holy Diver is listed as a 2-disc deluxe edition release by a seller on ebay. If you enter "holy diver japan" in the search box, his listing will come up, it's the one going for $51.99. He doesn't have a track listing, but he never does, ftfym55 is the seller. It's also listed on amazon.ca with no details.

Hmm, that's interesting! Neither CDJapan, HMV Japan, or CDBanq show the 2-disc Holy Diver anywhere.

Kym, I know, first 2 places I checked were cd japan and cd banq. Amazon usa doesn't show it either. I googled it and this thread comes up first and the amazon.ca listing comes up 5th or 6th.
