EXCLUSIVE: Craig Goldy interview

Our correspondent from San Diego, Lucas H. Gordon met the legendary guitarist Craig Goldy,  most notably of the band Dio, to submit an interview.
Craig Goldy Talked about Ronnie James Dio, New Solo Project and the experience with Uk legend Budgie.
You can watch the video ( from Lucas H.Gordon Youtube Channel) below and read the subtitle for Latin fans of Ronnie James Dio.





Goldy was born in San Diego, California, before Dio, he played in the bands Vengeance, Rough Cutt, and Giuffria. 
He replaced Jake E. Lee in Rough Cutt and was himself replaced by Amir Derakh. 
While with Rough Cutt, Goldy played on demos produced by Ronnie James Dio.
Goldy performed on the fantastic Dio album Dream Evil, but this first stint with the band was short lived and he left due to unknown reasons. 

In 2000, Goldy returned to Dio and helped record Magica, but shortly thereafter left again due to family commitments. 

However, Goldy was back in the Dio fold for what turned out to be the band's final studio album, Master of the Moon, in 2004. 
Goldy temporarily left the group for the third time in 2005, after suffering a hand injury on tour through Russia. 
He was again replaced by Doug Aldrich for the duration of the tour.
Goldy and Warren DeMartini(Ratt) are currently the only members left of the original Dio Disciples line-up.

There are a lot of bands that want to modernise their sound or image and forget what made them great in the beginning… I am not one of them". "We are very pleased with the end result, in particular with the recorded sound achieved, it really does capture the early '80s NWOBHM spirit and feel we were looking for.

 To achieve that raw, almost 'live' vibe to the sound, we even replicated the microphone positioning that was used on the original recording" he adds.
