Live in the Heat of the Night

Live in the Heat of the Night is a live album by the British heavy metal band Diamond Head, released in 2000 on Zoom Club Records. It was recorded at the Wolverhampton Wulfrun Hall during their 1991 comeback tour and began life as a video bootleg. Their manager, Steve Guard, pushed for an official release, and it arrived as a tribute to the band's live sound after their split following Death & Progress. Sean Harris adds a thank-you note on the inner sleeve.

It comes as two discs: audio of the show on the first, video on the second, though neither holds the full night. The opener "Wild on the Streets" and the encore "Am I Evil?" are both absent. What makes it worth hearing are the previously unreleased songs "Let Me Down Easy" and "She Comes Down", plus a closing medley of covers, something rare for the band. The album also led to a brief reunion that produced the First Cuts EP.
