Dio was successful in ensuring his bands brought fresh ideas to the table. He talks about the value of replacing members of his band for this reason. Refer to his Lock up the Wolves KZbin recording video. What is also known is that Vinny Campbell and Dio had a magical chemistry in studio and on the stage...that may have only translated in those two environs. In any regard, knowing all humans have professional goals and needs, their three albums together are some of the best the 1980s and since had to offer...and to this day are revered by many old and new alike. Regardless of what Campbell did after Dio, his legacy was bourne by the skills he had already left on recording for the world. I would argue that anyone who has listened to rock over a period of time rates Vinny Campbell's abilities as very high.
