old school


My bar has a lot of history. In fact we even have a resident ghost. Back in the 60's it was a burger and coke joint, teen club. Over the decade a lot of famous bands played here. One that i find very interesting was a band called "Ronnie Dio and the Prophets".

Yep, that Ronnie James Dio. I have never heard anything by them, and would love to hear something if anyone has any recordings by them.

Hey Mike. A search on Wikipedia at, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronnie_James_Dio

turned up a list of songs they did, which I've included here. I'm sure you've heard some of them, although many of these songs did get sung by multiple bands and performers. There are a few songs floating on You-tube if you're interested.

Gonna Make It Alone b/w Swingin Street
