OMG, my wife was watching Oprah, when in a sudden it was about Heavy Metal. Sounds good so far, right? Well, no! It was about Pat Boone is recording a new album. His previous album, In a Metal Mood, was named in the show. So, curious as I am, I grabbed my notebook and did a little searching on the net, 'till I saw this:

You weren't familiar with it already?! I have it, and it's pretty funny. Holy Diver is actually not bad, and it even has Dio himself on it.

I was shocked! You can only hear Dio with "ooms" and "yeahs". But I have to admit, the production is much better than most cover bands has. But it's really different...to say the least.

Also, his version of Crazy Train was used as the theme music for the TV show "The Osbournes". That was the first time I'd heard anything from this.

It´s a cult record. Even Ritchie Blackmore plays on it. Which means a lot!

I'd like to hear The Wind Cries Mary
