Watch Early Dio Compilation Trailer

The new CD compiles early pre-Elf material

Published 19th Oct 2011

And Before Elf... There Were Elves will feature twelve previously unreleased tracks (all from 1971), comprised of both live in the studio and live on stage tracks. The album will feature a striking lenticular/3D/hologram cover on which, when you turn it, you will see two alternating images — Ronnie from the first ELF LP as well as a vintage group shot from 1971.

The album contains a variety of styles not necessarily associated with Ronnie's later music.

Here's the tracklist:

  1. You Shook Me
  1. Stay With Me
  1. Four Day Creep
  1. Buckingham Blues
  1. Wakeup Sunshine
  1. Driftin'
  1. Smile For Me Lady
  1. You Felt The Same Way
  1. Simple Man
  1. Drown Me In The River
  1. Cold Ramona
  1. Little Queenie
