Former Dio drummer Simon Wright says there’s a chance that four unfinished demos could be completed for a future release. Ronnie James Dio’s last track, Electra, was released after his death, but Wright reveals scratch tracks of other songs exist. “There were three or four songs he had been working on,” says the drummer. “I’m not sure what will happen. At some point, maybe, they’ll come out. You would have to be careful how you approached it – you wouldn’t want to overstep your bounds. We’d sit and listen to them and see how far he got. We’d do it with total respect and we’d do it delicately.”

it doesn't surprise me there are unfinished tracks laying around to be released. Most bands/artists have a huge collection unfinished or substandard music laying around. :grinthumb

I'd say leave them in the vault, I am not a fan of "necro-publishing" material that the author never completed or felt wasn't good enough to release.

Dio has left enough quality music for us to enjoy forever, let's leave it at that.
