I remember them playing at a school dance in Marathon NY must have only been a year or so after this. They were Ronnie Dio and the Electric Elves then. Not sure what year it was. 69 or 70? Use to see them locally after that as Elf. Was slways kind of proud a local boy made it so big. Was always a Dio fan, for sure. RIP RONNIE!
@@tomchrisfield7348 I guess we were both correct. Ronald Padavona was born in Portsmouth, N.H., and in Cortland, N.Y. He took his stage name in tribute to the gangster Johnny , and he began his career in rockabilly bands in the late 1950
The only one I can think of to come close was a friend of his, Pat Boone. Go listen to "Ain't that a shame", and then his cover of Dio's "Holy Diver", haha. Dio sings backup vocals on the cover.
18 years after this: "The old ones speak of winter, the young ones praise the Sun, and time just slips away". 42 years after this: "Far beneath the world we missed the Sun". Long live Dio!
@@joeyjackman675 agreed. His really early stuff in the early 60's actually was very similar to Frankie Avalon and Dion and the Belmonts. It wasn't until around 1972 with elf that you can hear the Dio that we all know and love
Amazing footage!!! 🙌🏻🎶 Gary Driscoll on drums (lasted all the way through Rainbow's debut LP), Nick Pantas on lead guitar (sadly died in a car accident the whole band was involved in) David "Rock" Feinstein (Dio's cousin) on rhythm guitar (lasted up to Elf's debut LP) RJD on bass and vocals I believe they became The Electric Elves not long after this...

Proud to say my first concert was Dio in Lubbock, TX in 1988 I was 16yrs old and it was an experience I will never forget. Ronnie was and will always be a legend. Thank you for the great music and memories. RIP
@@swampdonkey67 Yeah, sure, the Who stole a song by a completely unknown band in New York state and released it a year before this footage has been dated. "Substitute" was released as a single in the UK on March 4, 1966. They were obviously pretty heavily influenced by the Who. Christ.
"I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth " thought the same thing. Seeing this for the 1st time. Wow he could sing anything. I wonder when he decided to get after it and put some growl into it?
To those questioning my reference to Ronnie as "Ronald", I was simply giving the man proper respect by using his full name. I've seen it used many times on various YT posts. 🤘RIP RJD
My first Concert was "SacredHeart 86" I'm fortunate to have seen Dio live 15 more times through the years. His voice and stage presence was unmatched in Heavy Metal!🤘

Take a look at when he was with "Elf". I had an album by Elf, saw Dio on the Last in Line Tour... I believe it was 1982-ish... was in the autograph Line after the show and handed him the Elf album to sign... 🤣 You should have seen his face (like he saw a ghost!) He laughed his ass off and signed "To Jeff, Thanks for the laugh!!! All the best, always.) Big memory for a young metal fan!

@@dougbennett8592 - They ask you to listen, but you don't hear, you're blind to their sound... like a drummer suddenly exploding, it's getting closer every day... I saw a great Quadruple Bill in '67 at the Monterey Jamboree Jamm RockingAid Benefit for Pakistan ... Ronnie Dio & the Predictors ( pre-prophets ) with The Peter Criss Puppet Show Project, Elvis Presley & Spinal Tap. The Puppets got booed off stage. People were still booing the puppets when Tap was on. Tap was Incredible. During Flower People, they brought out Ronnie & Ozzy and did War Pigs... Then Mick Jagger joined them for a smoking rendition of GSM... Awesome Show !
I have some recordings from those early days by the late Ronnie but I didn't remember this song and I didn't think there were some video either ! Thank you. A pity we don't see Ronnie very much. It seems weird indeed, how the music changed in a matter of a few years... Elf was boogie and something else, a bit hard rock too, but Rainbow was totally different music (and quite different from Deep Purple too, btw). Ronnie was great on ballads, too, as we can hear on Roger Glover's Butterfly Ball in 1974....
i've been watching all the MONKEES episodes free on YT....and I was stunned at how the show is just as funny today and has aged so well, but also the RADICAL idea that every show is about SCAM ARTISTS in the music biz and other con artists in society! (Tha'ts pretty cynical!)

Look up Brian Johnson of AC/DC. I recently seen a video of a band he was in before AC/DC and was shocked.

Maybe Frank Stallone
Ronnie rocking a Gibson Eb Bass? Thats flipping awesome!
Take a look at when he was with "Elf". I had an album by Elf, saw Dio on the Last in Line Tour... I believe it was 1982-ish... was in the autograph Line after the show and handed him the Elf album to sign... 🤣
You should have seen his face (like he saw a ghost!) He laughed his ass off and signed "To Jeff, Thanks for the laugh!!! All the best, always.) Big memory for a young metal fan!
Interesting timestamps:
0.11 An Angel is sitting on the roof of the old barn
0:14 They tell me to look it over so I did and this is what I seen
0:32 The drummer was standing, now he is sitting
0:52 Ronnie must have gotten heart broken
1:05 The camera guy gets side tracked on a girls butt
1:10 Still sidetracked by butts
1:25 The sound of Seagulls are used to make it sound like girls are going crazy over the drum solo
1:45 The Angel sitting on the barn roof, sees Ronnie Dio and the Profits future and bounces out
1:48 The band has an epiphany and Ronnie is debating on becoming Ronnie James Dio or just Dio
1:50 Twirking is born on a farm This is what lead to Ronnies previous thought
1:59 RJD looks like if John Travolta and Glen Danzig had a love child
2:00 John Stamos sees the bands future
2:04 Drummer is looking at camera guy like hey man you were not filming us, all you filmed were the girls asses, this was a music video shoot not a skinamax feature. One day, there will be a market for band videos, and its going to spar on a plethora of fake reality shows that cause society to pretend like they live in one big frat house.
Also starting at 2:05 The sound of the bands future is captured
Hope you find these useful.
If Beatles didn’t break up, they would also transform into heavy metal band.
Helter Skelter almost hinted at that and some people cite it as being perhaps the 1st proto Heavy Metal song even !
True, they were nearly there. How about 'I Want You (She's So Heavy)' from Abbey Road. One of my fave beatles tracks.
Hard to say… the ex-Beatles in their solo careers didn't go metal. If they stuck together, it wouldn't have been that different.
@@Kowasi yeah but Wings kinda bordered on metal, you could call a lot of it heavy rock.
Not!!!
That's crazy how much he changed over the years. This is a cool song and interesting video.
this, this is beautiful
I had the pleasure of meeting Ronnie and he was one of the nicest people I've ever met and an amazing singer. 🤘
"Hey, want to join my band?"
"Sure."
"Can you sing harmony?"
"Oh yeah."
"The lead singer is Ronnie James Dio."
"I quit."
Eh he probably was no were near his peak ability at this point
The good days
Compared to Dio? Lmao
The GAY old days, right grand pappy?
Ah yes, Jaw Tooth! It seems like they recommend the same stuff to every railfan I guess!
Yes. Before blm looking "singers" pissed and shitted everything around
Hippies can suck it, THANK GOD FOR DIO AND PUNK AND MOTORHEAD AND SPEED.
Even back then, tail prevailed
Happy 79th birthday Ronnie!!🤘
It's nice to see the origins )))
Dio playing with a SG Bass looks awesome
Cameraman later found fame with John Stagliano.
pausing at 2:01 I can just imagine Ronnie giving the devil horns :)
Consummate professional !!!!
Got to play with him for a few mins in the 80’s. Long story.
cool, thanks for posting this. I grew up in the 60's and 70's as a teen. I was just little late to the start of the game but this old stuff is always great to see because it's where it all came from.
Dio was like an actual living breathing dnd character rip and forget the rock and roll hall of.fame if it doesn't include him
I don't even acknowledge the legitimacy of the RNRHOF. Means nothing.
Back in the days when music is cool and Harmony 👍👍👍
Music is still cool and has harmony. Running down the music of others doesn't make others like your music nor make it any better. .
@@richsackett3423 No, but he is entitled to his opinion, too. A lot of people think the quality of popular music has deteriorated since the 60's/70's.
@@timjonesvideos He's wrong and not entitled to his own reality. A lot of people are idiots who voted for 45*. A lot of people are very very stupid.
@@richsackett3423 They are indeed.
Liked a lot!

What is the music name?
@@rlkissteller Hey Look Me Over
Thank you very much for sharing this amazing footage
The 60s were so fucking cool. I was a kid but I was so glad to be alive during everything that went on. It was an historic period in our history and the music and style was just so fucking cool.
Good song. Absolutely Love Dio. “Hey, Look Me Over” sorta has that Archies feel to it.
Never heard this song before I LIKE IT.
Dio: One of Portsmouth, NH's greatest sons.
I was two. Ronnie was older than all of the Beatles. Way older than my own mom. This is a rare treat!
...and then,he became a Legend,a true Icon of the world of music... unforgettable, that's what you are, dear Ronnie! 🌠✨🤟🏻🌹
Funny stuff. Flowerpower. Beatmusic. His development is astonishing.
They're even social distancing there
thats what I was gonna say lmfao!
Listen ... To what the Flower People Say
That was an Enormous Single. Tap toured the world & elsewhere...
It's not too late... it's not too late
The one song that confirms the existence of flower people and that we should listen to what they say... or something like that.
@@dougbennett8592 - They ask you to listen, but you don't hear, you're blind to their sound... like a drummer suddenly exploding, it's getting closer every day...
I saw a great Quadruple Bill in '67 at the Monterey Jamboree Jamm RockingAid Benefit for Pakistan ...
Ronnie Dio & the Predictors ( pre-prophets ) with The Peter Criss Puppet Show Project, Elvis Presley & Spinal Tap.
The Puppets got booed off stage. People were still booing the puppets when Tap was on. Tap was Incredible. During Flower People, they brought out Ronnie & Ozzy and did War Pigs... Then Mick Jagger joined them for a smoking rendition of GSM... Awesome Show !
This was good stuff
I have some recordings from those early days by the late Ronnie but I didn't remember this song and I didn't think there were some video either ! Thank you. A pity we don't see Ronnie very much. It seems weird indeed, how the music changed in a matter of a few years... Elf was boogie and something else, a bit hard rock too, but Rainbow was totally different music (and quite different from Deep Purple too, btw). Ronnie was great on ballads, too, as we can hear on Roger Glover's Butterfly Ball in 1974....
This was filmed shortly after the Civil War.
about 100 yrs after
what's so civil about war?
@@d.s7741 GNR reference, yep, I got it 🙂
Lol!
Lolol!
The mighty Dio!!!!!!
Epic!
I love that this was uploaded! Thank you!
I had no idea Ronnie used to play this kind of music. Cool!
Память на века всем ушедшим рокерам рок 🎸 рольщикам рокершам
Ok guys lets try the one Ive been working on Rainbow in the dark these kids might dig it
Wow and I thought Elf was a deep dive, very cool, sounds like a Monkees tune!
i've been watching all the MONKEES episodes free on YT....and I was stunned at how the show is just as funny today and has aged so well, but also the RADICAL idea that every show is about SCAM ARTISTS in the music biz and other con artists in society! (Tha'ts pretty cynical!)
Funny you say that ,because I thought the one guitarist had a " Nesmith " vibe goin' on.
@@MSicko I thought that too, kind of looked like Richie Blackmore with the hat too......spooky!
This is beautiful.
10% Dio 10% drugs 80% butts
