I had never seen today’s performance of “Mistreated” by Dio but man am I glad I finally did.
Dio brings it down at a whole other level and dare I say performs the tune better than the original and better than any of the live versions I’ve heard from Coverdale or Glenn Hughes.
Originally written by David Coverdale with fellow Deep Purple band member Ritchie Blackmore, “Mistreated” was released on their album Burn released in 1974.
It was actually the only song on the album where Coverdale sang the entire tune by himself.
When Blackmore ended up leaving Deep Purple to pursue other interests, he teamed up with Dio to form the band Rainbow.
As part of Rainbow, Dio put out this version of the same tune and this particular performance was done in 1977 at concert in Munich for a live album they put out.
I hope you enjoy today’s video and I look forward to hearing what you thought of the performance!
