Info:

 Life (subtitled Live, and labeled Life:Live on the original vinyl LP editions) is a double live album by Irish band Thin Lizzy, released in 1983. (see 1983 in music). This double album was recorded during their farewell tour in 1983, principally at the Hammersmith Odeon in London, UK. Phil Lynott had felt reluctantly that it was time to disband the group after the 1983 tour and to mark the occasion, former Thin Lizzy guitarists Eric Bell (1969-73), Brian Robertson (1974-Cool and Gary Moore (1974, 1977 and 1979) joined the band on stage at the end of these gigs to do some numbers. This was called "The All-Star Jam".

Thin Lizzy - Black Rose: A Rock Legend (1979) [Deluxe Edition]

TRACKLIST:




Artist : Thin Lizzy
Country : Ireland
Release : Black Rose: A Rock Legend [Deluxe Edition]
Year : 1979
Genre : Rock
File Type : mp3 320


Info:

Black Rose: A Rock Legend would prove to be Thin Lizzy's last true classic album (and last produced by Tony Visconti). Guitarist Brian Robertson was replaced by Gary Moore prior to the album's recording. Moore had already been a member of the band in the early '70s and served as a tour fill-in for Robertson in 1977, and he fits in perfectly with Lizzy's heavy, dual-guitar attack. Black Rose also turned out to be the band's most musically varied, accomplished, and successful studio album, reaching number two on the U.K. album chart upon release. Lizzy leader Phil Lynott is again equipped with a fine set of originals, which the rest of the band shines on -- the percussion-driven opener "Do Anything You Want To," the pop hit "Waiting for an Alibi," and a gentle song for Lynott's newly born daughter, "Sarah." Not all the material is as upbeat, such as the funky "S&M," as well two grim tales of street life and substance abuse -- "Toughest Street in Town" and "Got to Give It Up" (the latter sadly prophetic for Lynott). Black Rose closes with the epic seven-minute title track, which includes an amazing, complex guitar solo by Moore that incorporates Celtic themes against a hard rock accompaniment. Black Rose: A Rock Legend is one of the '70s lost rock classics.

Thin Lizzy - At The BBC (2011) [6CD Boxset]

TRACKLIST:



Artist : Thin Lizzy
Country : Ireland
Release : At The BBC
Year : 2011
Genre : Rock
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

Nice to see these recordings finally given a reissue, the initial single cd on the strange fruit label having been unavailable for a long long time, but although doubling the amount of material on offer, there are some glaring omissions in the selection... Having said that, the Live at the BBC boxset is very comprehensive if also very expensive. for a fan there are many essential and definitive recordings among these sessions which cover a good portion of the bands career and represent well the varying line up of Thin Lizzy throughout the 70's.
