''Live Evil'' hit both the UK Top 30 and the US Top 40 Album charts. AllMusic states that "''Live Evil'' does benefit from a crystal clear, in-your-face sound, and by showcasing even amounts of both Ozzy and Dio material, effectively documents Black Sabbath's renascent tours of the early '80s. Ronnie certainly has the vocal chops, if not the same everyman charm, to handle the Osbourne classics, but his incessant banter between (and during!) songs sometimes verges on the unbearable." The album is included in the [[Black Sabbath (band)|Black Sabbath]] box set ''[[The Rules of Hell]]''.<ref name='MP3'>{{cite news|first=Jim |last=Welte |title=Legends align for Metal Masters Tour |date=2008-04-22 |url=http://www.mp3.com/news/stories/11191.html |work=[[MP3.com]] |access-date=2008-04-23 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080424114144/http://www.mp3.com/news/stories/11191.html |archive-date=2008-04-24 }}</ref> The ''Live Evil'' album cover features literal interpretations of Sabbath songs.
