Cortland New York's own Ronnie Padavona went to high school with his son for a short time.

Love the pic used here! But well that's mostly because... I drew it lol First did it back in 2002 for a Elf reunion that was supposed to happen, but unfortunately never did. I even submitted it to Ronnie's fan club with the name "Return To Nevermore" for a possible title they could use for their album. "Nevermore" was the song I chose to name it after because that was the closest sounding track to the darker and heavier direction Dio would later choose to go. It also had to do with fantasy and Edgar Allen Poe, so I thought it made an epic title. The band that was supposed to have assembled at that time (if memory still serves me) was David Rock Feinstein (guitar), Mickey Lee Soule (piano/synthesizer), either Joey DeMiao or Roger Glover on bass, and either Simon Wright or Vinnie Appice on drums. And Ronnie of course on... well you know what Ronnie does best ;)

All of Ronnie's work is awesome, but Elf is my favourite one. Cheers, mate!

[@22Boyne]

Yep, Proper stuff.

Ronnie's voice leads the soundtrack to the last half of the 20th century. Truly timeless though.

When I was a teenager, I met Ronnie up at a bar in New York, I didn't know who he was at first, the rest of the band was setting there with him , I was walking by and all of a sudden a person grabbed my hand and it was he. I can't tell you who read my palm out of the group, but someone did. My cousin told me that that was Dio. It was at the Pine Inn bar. Don't tell anyone please, I was under age.

[@Nonconformistwilderbeastman]

What year was that apparently the year you was a teenager huh I've been a Dio fan since I was a teenager around 1980

[@Mariointeligenciaartificial]

WoW! And what did say your hand? Greetings from Spain. I have read that the name the elves is because he was the tallest of the group with 163 cm

[@jasminefairchild8591]

OMG.. what did this young Ronnie say you palm said ??? Thats so stink cool !!!

[@charlestinkham6739]

seen elf just before their first cd came out in towanda pa.the sci building.they had to run extension cord from neighbors house for additional power. keep kicking breakers at sci.

The lead guitar on here with the kind of bluesy sound sounds alot like something Tony Iommi would play, right up his alley. I really wish Tony Iommi would have played at least a few of Dios old songs from Elf, Rainbow, or his Dio solo band, like the way Black Sabbath played Smoke on the Water on the 1983 Born Again tour when Ian Gillan was their vocalist. Does anybody know if there are any recordings of Tony Iommi doing any cover songs of other bands; I think that would be great hearing him playing other bands material, (I'm sure his guitar playing would make most of the songs much heavier than the original bands version of the song).

[@glencarta8712]

Believe that's his cousin Gary Fienstein...sounds like the line up from 1st Elf masterpiece

Excellent!

What's sad is all the greats are dead or dying and the pure shit they call music now is all future generations will ever know.

[@Nonconformistwilderbeastman]

You can blame disco for the beginning of the end as we know now

[@Mariointeligenciaartificial]

The same has happened in all the arts painting, writing, sculpture, cinema, photography, etc... and in other classical music, reagee, blues, folk etc... 🥴🩺

[@cmcolina]

[@willjennings844]
