What Do You Think?
Is this the best of Ronnie James Dio live?
Loading ...I don’t think it will get enough votes to deserve to be included in the poll to find the best hard rock and heavy metal live albums. On Stage (with Rainbow) and Live Evil (with Sabbath) are included because they are both well known, well respected live albums.
Loading ...I have included it in the second division of albums and if it gets enough votes, it can be promoted to the main list.
Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.
