Me too, but I couldn't vote for it since I evaluate live albums as a whole, and from it (and that list) "Life/Live" has a bigger impact on me. "Unleashed In The East" should be the first but is too short (even the remaster) for the magic of Judas Priest to be tasted in full.
As for a live album with Dio I prefer Rainbow "On Stage", as a matter of fact I consider that Black Sabbath never made a good live album. "Live At Last" is badly produced, "Live Evil" didn't click right and "Reunion" has many faults for my taste (I hadn't check the live one with Tony Martin tho).
In general terms I don't like live albums, I consider them basically compilations, so I really go for them when I'm for completism (and/or the price is low) or when they deliver something extra. In my experience with live albums I have found that Thin Lizzy deliver the goodies for real.
