Rhino has reissued A Decade Of Dio: 1983-1993, a box set featuring Dio's first six studio albums, with 2016 remastered audio.
The box set features 1983's Holy Diver, 1984's The Last In Line, 1985's Sacred Heart, 1987's Dream Evil, 1990's Lock Up The Wolves, and 1993's Strange Highways.
Rhino reissued the 6LP box set on 140-gram splatter vinyl, and a Rhino.com D2C exclusive, featuring a bonus 7-inch of non-album tracks "Evil Eyes (Original Version)" b/w "Time To Burn."
On the first side is the 1983 version of "Evil Eyes," originally released as the B-side of the "Holy Diver" single.
In addition, this version is different from the one featured on the 1984 album The Last In Line. The flip side features "Time To Burn," the only studio track on the otherwise live release Intermission (1986).
The set includes artwork by Marc Sasso, who was behind many of the band's iconic covers. The 6LP set is limited to 3,000 units, while the bonus 7-inch is limited to 1,000 copies.
