The super deluxe edition of Live And Dangerous finally puts to bed the myth that the album was extensively overdubbed in the studio, and demonstrates that Thin Lizzy was one of the best live bands of the 1970s.
When Live and Dangerous was initially released in 1978, the album spent the best part of three months in the UK top ten and was only denied the top spot by one of the best-selling albums of all time, the soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever. Live And Dangerous was originally intended to be a studio album, working with producer Tony Visconti, however, Visconti had only had a small window in his schedule, so Lizzy’s frontman Philip Lynott came up with the idea that they spend two weeks together compiling a live album instead. Lizzy Expert Nick Sharp has overseen the tracklisting, which is all killer, no filler and pure unadulterated Thin Lizzy.The 8CD super deluxe of Live and Dangerous (click to enlarge) This Greatest Hits 2-LP set brings together all the band’s hits and live favourites on vinyl for the first time in a non-limited edition form. In their relatively short career, the band scored 8 top 20 hits over 8 years and no less than 8 albums in the UK top 20, 3 of which would make the top 10 and 4 the top 5. On January 4, 1986, Lynott tragically died at the age of 36 but left behind a catalogue of songs that stands head and shoulders above any of his peers. The band finally called it a day in 1983, with their final British performance being a headlining slot at the Reading Festival that August. In 1978, the band released 'Live and Dangerous', which is rightly regarded as one of the all-time great live albums.
It got to number eight in Britain and number 12 in the States. The album stormed to number 10 in the UK and number 18 in America, and the band’s enduring anthem 'The Boys Are Back in Town' was a transatlantic hit single. The 1976 album 'Jailbreak' proved to be the moment that Thin Lizzy arrived on the world stage as an unstoppable force. Thin Lizzy are a hard rock band formed in Dublin, Ireland, in 1969.Tracklist:A1 The Boys Are Back In TownA2 JailbreakA3 Dont Believe A WordA4 Dancing In. There was to be a further shake-up when the band decided to expand the line-up to a four-piece, with Scottish teenager Brian Robertson and American Scott Gorham both coming in on guitar and creating the Lizzy signature sound. The band formed as a three-piece in Dublin and 1970 but didn’t achieve their breakthrough until 1973 when they had their first hit single, a version of the traditional Irish song 'Whiskey in The Jar', which reached number six in the UK. Phil Lynott's poetic lyricism, the unmatchable dual guitar precision and peerless melodies, all of this is part of the Lizzy heritage and what they have left behind is powerful and influential. Nobody has ever sounded like them, yet they have influenced countless others. Thin Lizzy is unquestionably one of the true icons of British rock.
