Another one that left us too soon. He played on some killer albums, my faves being:

Rainbow-Rising
Dio-Holy Diver
Dio-The Last In Line
Dio-Dream Evil
Dio-Magica
Dio-Killing The Dragon
Gary Moore-Dirty Fingers

We'll able to hear its last work on the upcoming LAST IN LINE album, with his 3 ex-Dio bandmates.

R.I.P. Mr. Bain.
