If it weren't for "Heaven and Hell" (which I consider one the finest records ever done), "The Mob Rules" would be the definitive Dio-era Sabbath record. Come to think of it "Dehumanizer" is great also.

Dude, Dio-era Sabbath is just that. It's Dio. It ain't Sabbath! Too much emphasis on his vocals. Just like everything else he ever did. I bought "Heaven and Hell" on vinyl when it first came out. I wasn't impressed. Actually, kinda dissapointed as I recall. Although technically I suppose you can say it's a fine record, I don't know that I'd echo your sentiments as far as true
"Sabbath" goes. No freakin' way!

Heck, you probably liked Journey after that Perry guy started singing for them! lol!
