Released in 1978, just as the hot streak starting with 1975's Fighting and running through 1977's Bad Reputation came to an end, Live and Dangerous was a glorious way to celebrate Thin Lizzy's glory days and one of the best double live LPs of the 70s. But even if there was some tweaking in the studio, Live and Dangerous feels live, containing more energy and power than the original LPs, which were already dynamic in their own right.

It's always funny to see that just about every live-album is said or written to be the best live album in existence. Likewise from this album. I think I have 20 live albums with that predicate.

Sykes is on par with Gary Moore for chops and played with a lot of enthusiasm. The songs from Thunder and Lightning were welcome to hear too, those tunes have really grown on me, and add to the scope of Phil's writing catalog. The sound was a lot better to my ears than that on the Rainbow Theatre footage. I very much appreciate getting this footage for the price of the DVD which ostensibly geared toward the Rainbow Theatre.Dutchcharts.nl – Thin Lizzy – Live and Dangerous" (in Dutch). Hung Medien.

The group planned to make a new studio album at the start of 1978, helmed by producer Tony Visconti, with whom they had created the successful Bad Reputation. However, Visconti had a very tight schedule and had committed to producing albums for other artists, so Lynott suggested they instead spend two weeks together compiling a live album.

NOTE, on all the performance and interview footage I had to manually put the sound settings on stereo, the default is 5.1 and was muted on my system. At first I thought something was wrong with the DVD. The audio in the menus was on all the time for me. Now that I know that have to put the audio setting on stereo I'm not having problems. This amount of material, arguably, muddied the waters. The band and producer Tony Visconti could have released a brilliant Live And Dangerous a year earlier using only Hammersmith recordings (the third night’s disc is mind-blowing), but that would have meant a document without Southbound, Dancing In The Moonlight and Are You Ready (from the Rainbow).

never miss a release.
