Evil or Divine – Live in New York City is a video album by the American heavy metal band Dio, recorded in New York City in 2002 and released on DVD in 2003.
Recorded in New York's Roseland Ballroom during Killing The Dragon tour on December 13th 2002, this exceptional performance with top-notch sound quality and usually magic grip behind the music captures Mr. Voice of Metal on the top of his game despite of mixed repertoire that ranges from heavy metal anthems including a few Rainbow and Black Sabbath hymns Ronnie has participated on, up to the latest material, obviously promoted on the road - it is an ultimate document to memorize the legendary musician.
This release captures Dio's performance at New York City's Roseland Ballroom on Friday, December 13, 2002. Featuring the Dio/Bain/Wright/Aldrich/Warren lineup

Following the extremely warm reception given his self-named band's well-deserving debut album, Holy Diver, Ronnie James Dio figured there was no point in messing with a winning formula, and decided to play it safe with 1984's sophomore effort, The Last in Line – with distinctly mixed results. Although technically cut from the same cloth as those first album nuggets, fist-pumping new songs like "We Rock," and "I Speed at Night" curiously went from good to tiresome after just a few spins (a sign that the songwriting clichés were starting to pile up…read on); and the otherwise awesome, seven-minute epic, "Egypt (The Chains Are On)," inexplicably lost it's strikingly sinister main riff halfway through, in what sounds like a mastering snafu of some kind.
