(hennemusic) Slipnot/Stone Sour vocalist Corey Taylor recorded "Rainbow In The Dark" for the forthcoming Ronnie James Dio tribute album, "This Is Your Life" (due April 1), and the song is now available for streaming.

Taylor is joined by Steel Panther guitarist Satchel, Stone Sour drummer Roy Mayorga, and touring buddies Jason Christopher and Christian Martucci for the classic tune, which was originally featured on 1983's "Holy Diver."

"Ronnie was the most natural singer I have ever witnessed," says Taylor. "He could do anything, hit any note, make any audience lose their minds. He was one of the greatest and I'm so happy I got to see him live. 'Rainbow in the Dark' was the first Dio song I really loved to death - just a powerful, high-energy hard rock song that was so good I wished I'd written it. When I was asked to be a part of this album, I knew there was only one track I wanted to record and luckily I got it. I only hope I did it justice. Having had the privilege of meeting Ronnie before he passed, I hope he knows how much I loved him for who and what he was: One of the greatest."
