Acknowledgements

Over the years, I have recent a ton of information, corrections, and new music from a variety of Dio fans and readers of this site. It's getting hard to track each individual contribution, so I wanted to thank the following:

• Glenn Pillsbury for taking over hosting this website (as of Dec 2016)
• Genady from Angen.net (for hosting all the music files for so many years)
• Tapio (a lot of information - from dio.net)
• Jim Pownall (for the Live at the Bank songs)
• John White and David Kent (cleaned up several of the songs here)
• Mike Donohue (numerous corrections)
• Wieslaw, from Poland (sent me three live Elves shows)
• Joey Niji (turning me onto the Bobby Comstock song below)
• Dave Parisi for getting me the Jacinta Lounge show
• John D’Angelo for many, many updates, photos, etc. that find their way on this site and the Facebook page
• …and all the others who have helped make this site better!

Videos

• Ronnie Dio and the Prophets outdoors (posted to YouTube by Jim Pantas)
• Ronnie Dio and the Prophets home video (posted to YouTube by Jim Pantas)
• More Prophets, from a TV show (posted to YouTube by Jim Pantas)
• The Elves (1970) - This is a great video. Much of it is a slide show, with some video, but the audio is all from a live performance. Very, very cool stuff here.
• Elf (1974) - Very raw live footage from an Elf concert.
  

Miscellaneous Music

Budweiser Commercial (1983) (1.4 MB) - Not from the early years, but it was sent to me, so I thought I'd upload it.

Bobby Comstock (Ronnie on background vocals): I Can’t Help Myself:

There is called That'll Flat Git It Vol 4. Here is the Amazon.com link. That disc apparently has Oop-Poo-Pah-Doo and Love pains on it. Probably worth a look.

And Before Elf There Were Elves

This disc was recently released (it can be found here at Amazon). I've recently learned that Niji Entertainment, which released the disc, is the official label started by Ronnie's wife, I believe. So go out and get the cd! There aren't many official released from this time period.
