A miraculous explosion of the best live album from the Gary Moore era! This work was recorded at “Inglewood performance on August 16, 1978”. It is a transcendental audience recording in which the legendary recorder Mike Millard recorded the whole story. Gary participated in THIN LIZZY three times: in 1974 (in the trio era), in 1977 (as a pinch hitter for Robo), and in 1978-1979 (officially joined), but this work was performed by Brian Robert. ``1978-1979'' period after Son's withdrawal was decided. Speaking of live performances in the Gary era, the TV pro shot of the Sydney performance, which was also made official, is famous, but first of all, let's look back at the schedule at the time, including that, and check the position of the show. 1978《``LIVE AND DANGEROUS'' released《June 2nd》《July 30th: Gary rejoins/Join Now Thief》・August 8th - October 15th: North America #1 (42 performances) ←★Coco★《 “BACK ON THE STREETS” released on September 30th》・October 20th-29th: Australia (5 performances) ← *Official video ・December 17th: London performance (Downey’s return) 1979《February “BLACK ROSE” ' Completed》 March 2nd - 25th: North America #2 (24 performances) March 29th - May 22nd: Europe (43 performances) June 29th - July 4th: North America #3 ( 5 performances)《July 6th: Gary leaves》 This is the flow from Gary’s official participation to his repeated withdrawal. His first job was the opening of KANSAS's US tour, and this work was the 9th concert of their "North America #1" performance. Also, before going on tour, Brian Downey temporarily left the band due to family reasons. Mark Nauseef also served as a pinch hitter drummer. This work recorded at such a show is truly the superlative sound of an attack. As mentioned above, this tour is famous for the professional shot of the Sydney performance, but this work is much better than the official sound board. Its core is powerful yet incredibly lustrous, and there is no sense of distance at all. Gary's machine gun picking has a sharp edge and delicate vibe in each shot, and the lack of vibrato allows you to feel not only the nuances of the performance, but also the slight effect knobs applied. Although the Sydney performance sound board was official, the level was low, but this work is an audience, but it is at the BBC broadcast level. Superb quality of official masterpiece. It is “Gary & THIN LIZZY’s No. 1 live album” without any questions asked. It is a famous recording that has no choice but to bow down to the awesomeness of Mike Millard, but this work is also its highest peak. In fact, the original sound posted online was almost perfect, but not perfect. Perhaps Millard's purpose was the main KANSAS, the opening THIN LIZZY's first song "Warrior" begins with a fade-in, and the volume is adjusted as if checking the on-site PA. As expected, there is nothing that can be done about recording leaks, but the volume adjustment can be corrected by mastering. Achieved a stable feel with almost no shaking. The show drawn with such a sound is THIN LIZZY, reborn gorgeously with Gary's guitar. Since it is only an opening act, it will last about 40 minutes, but there will also be songs that were not heard at the Sydney performance. Let's organize the contents here.・Nightlife: Still In Love With You (★) ・Jailbreak: Warriors (★) / Cowboy Song / The Boys Are Back In Town ・Heron Johnny: Don't Believe A Word (★) ・Black Rose: Waiting For An Alibi/Others: Are You Ready?/Me And The Boys *Note: Songs marked with “★” cannot be heard on the Sydney performance DVD/CD “THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN”. ...and it looks like this. At that time, “LIVE AND DANGEROUS” was just released, and “Are You Ready?” and “Me And The Boys” were also played, but the Gary effect has appeared even earlier. The famous song "Waiting For An Alibi" from "BLACK ROSE" was performed, and Gary played the original take of the famous ballad "Still In Love With You", which has been remade many times, and the "BACK ON THE STREETS" version. I also chose "Don't Believe A Word" which was about to be released. Even in the short length of 8 songs, there are many Gary-related numbers packed in. And above all, the guitar. You'll just have to listen to this. Gary's guitars have always been amazing, but back then he was at his peak, earning the nickname "Guitar Crazy." Moreover, despite being a newcomer, the band mixes Gary's guitar to the front without hiding it strangely, and you can enjoy the extremely thick rapid fire and crying vibrato with the sound right in your ears. And Scott Gorham, who seems to be there in harmony, is also excellent. There is no strange rivalry between them, and the way they breathe together perfectly is amazing. Gary's era was the most colorful in the entire history of THIN LIZZY, where various guitarists intermingled. Looking at Gary's career, it was a unique peak that added to the guitar dance and the beauty of the twin. This work is a miraculous No. 1 live album where you can enjoy the real pleasure. A piece that will engrave the miraculous twin in your heart with a quality that far exceeds that of a sound board.
