A lesson in Music HistoryJan 06, 2009 Thin Lizzy is one of the most under appreciated bands of the classic rock era. This show, taken from the U.K. Johnny the Fox tour, showcases the band in all it's glory. This is probably the GREATEST live concert recording ever. From start to finish this concert smokes. Phil Lynott on bass and vocals, sings with passion, the twin guitar attack of Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson paved the way for bands like Avenged Sevenfold and Brian Downey is a pioneer of double bass drumming.
The audio and video content of this dvd is very high quality. There are not alot of fast video cuts from one member to the other and it flows seamlessly and the audio is crisp and clear.
My only complaint is that this dvd is missing a couple of tracks on the original Live and Dangerous cd, namely The Cowboy Song and Southbound. But all in all it is a great representation of one the greatest live bands in music history.
ReturnDec 17, 2008
I wanted this DVD for my collection but I had to return two copies because both was sent to me without an audio sound. A concert DVD with out an audio sound is of no use to me
Live and Dangerous- not complete,but closeDec 06, 2008 This is not a "complete" video of Thin Lizzy's "Live and Dangerous" LP from the late 70's,...tracks missing are "Southbound" and "Cowboy Song" as well as "Warrior"...however,it makes up for them with other footage from a concert with John Sykes.
I just wish when companies sell these products, they would sell you the complete show they way I first heard them in their entirety,...nothing less...
Somebody help - what is this product, a DVD with a bonus CD?Nov 01, 2008 I'm confused on what this product is. Help me please. Are the 1978 and 1983 video concerts on a DVD, and the bonus (second) disc is an audio CD? Please help .... thanks!

At a point below zero...Oct 13, 2008 From 1975 to 1979, hard rock was in its golden age as a result of an art form known as the double (or sometimes single) live album. And there was no record that best captured this day and age in more perfect form than Thin Lizzy's `Live and Dangerous' released in June 1978. Often cited as the premier live document of all time, this opus captured an in hindsight criminally underappreciated band in all of their ragged glory. These guys were untouchable and there was no cooler front man on the planet than Philip Parris Lynott! Behind him was Lizzy's greatest lineup in blood brother/rhythm genius Brian Downey and the ultra combustible duo of Brian Robertson and Scott Gorham. In America, where they were often delegated to support act status (how stupid were we?), headliners would shudder at the very mention of their name. At the time of `L&D''s release, a Sounds magazine critic called them the greatest hard rock band in the world, but today in 2008, the kids don't really know. As with any live document worth its salt, all the best (or most of the best) are here in peak performance form. To list my favorites would be listing most of the album but anyway - "Massacre", "Emerald" and "Rosalie" to name my top three. For pure six-string brilliance take Gorham on the first and Robbo and the last two, mind blowing! "Jailbreak" is the opener and man what a stunner (I love when he says, "I think it's safer" in that low almost throw away register!). The way "Cowboy Song" flows into "Boys" is just pure majestic alchemy! "Suicide" is gut wrenching, "The Rocker", pure delirium and "Don't Believe a Word" as macho tough a love song as one can get. You get the slow songs as well and Lizzy did them as well as anyone and two non-lpers which are fair but they don't make this record any more special than it already is (as if that were possible). As far as how "live" this album, if it bothers you that much - don't bother. This was Lizzy's REAL best of....and it really could be the greatest live album of all time.
