Timeline

1961

Thomas "Craig" Goldy (born November 6, 1961) is an American musician, best known as the guitarist of the rock bands Dio and Giuffria.

Goldy was born in San Diego, California.

Before Dio, he played in the bands Vengeance, Rough Cutt, and Giuffria.

He replaced Jake E. Lee in Rough Cutt and was himself replaced by Amir Derakh.

While with Rough Cutt, Goldy played on demos produced by Ronnie James Dio.

Shortly after leaving Rough Cutt, Goldy would join Giuffria, the eponymous band of former Angel keyboardist, Gregg Giuffria.

1984

Performing on Giuffria's self-titled debut album, released in 1984, Goldy is heard on the band's biggest hit, "Call to the Heart," which hit #15 on the Billboard charts in early 1985.

Goldy performed on the Dio album Dream Evil, but this first stint with the band was short lived and he left due to unknown reasons.

1985

In 1985, Goldy was coerced by buddy Jeff Scott Soto who had just departed from Yngwie Malmsteen in 1985, to leave Giuffria and join forces with him in a new supergroup consisting of bassist Rudy Sarzo and drummer Tommy Aldridge who had recently parted ways with Ozzy Osbourne, replacing guitarist Kurt James.

Soto eventually left the fold as did Goldy while the roundtable of musicians finally landed with singer Rob Rock and guitarist Tony MacAlpine which recorded one album as M.A.R.S. Project Driver.

Goldy left the group to join Dio.

1991

After exiting Dio, Goldy formed his own band, Craig Goldy's Ritual, and signed a deal with Grand Slamm Records for the release of Hidden In Plain Sight in 1991.
