To coincide with this year's Record Store Day (which falls on Saturday, April 16th), Niji Entertainment will be issuing a very special, Limited Edition, Deluxe Numbered Picture Disc LP of DIO's 2002 release, Killing The Dragon, of which only 2,500 copies will be made.

Each copy will be numbered in a unique way – by a special Dio hologram sticker.

Picture Disc Side A:

Also on Saturday, April 16th, former Dio band members Craig Goldy, Simon Wright, and Scott Warren will participate in an in-store appearance from 12:30 - 3:30 PM at the Mad Platter record store, which is located at 1223 University Avenue, #160, in Riverside, CA 92507-7238. You can also call the store at (951) 328-1600.

Killing the Dragon marked the first collaboration between Dio and guitarist Doug Aldrich, who has subsequently joined WHITESNAKE. The album also spawned the single/video 'Push', which featured TENACIOUS D's Jack Black and Kyle Gass (see below). And exclusively for the picture disc edition of Killing The Dragon, Dio's longtime engineer, Wyn Davis, mixed and remastered the album.
