REMASTER / THIN LIZZY

THIN LIZZY – Life/Live [2xSHM-CD 40th Anniversary remastered] (2023) HQ *Exclusive*

Universal Music has released a 40th Anniversary reissue of THIN LIZZY album ‘Life’ (subtitled Live, and labelled Life/Live on the original vinyl LP editions) remastered from the best sources available.
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 (1974–78) and Gary Moore (1974, 1977 and 1978–79) joined the band on stage at the end of these gigs to do some numbers. This was called “The All-Star Jam”.
During the performance of “The Rocker”, all of the guitarists played at the same time (Moore, John Sykes, Scott Gorham, Robertson and Bell), making a total of eight members on stage performing at once (including keyboard player Darren Wharton, later founder of AOR band Dare).
This is the Japanese release of this Life/Live 40th Anniversary release on a double SHM-CD pack.

THIN LIZZY – The Boys Are Back In Town; Live At The Sydney Opera House October 1978 [Japan SHM-CD] (2022) HQ

One of the most iconic musicians is responsible for influencing thousands of bands and is still being talked about, and with the release of Phil Lynott – While I’m Away it’s quite apparent why. The documentary is accompanied with a remix of ”The Boys Are Back In Town : Live At The Sydney Opera House October 1978”, which includes 5 new songs that were not a part of the original release – all newly remixed / remastered 2022
In 1978 Thin Lizzy was perhaps at it’s peak of popularity, and the concert in Australia shows the magnitude of their power and stage charisma. The line-up consisted of Phil Lynott (of course) and guitarist Scott Gorham, with Gary Moore returning on the other guitar. Brian Downey was unable to make the tour due to an illness, and American drummer Mark Nauseef filled in. Gary Moore is smoking hot on the guitar, and Phil’s vocals are amazing on every track.
Sound quality is great, even more on this Japanese SHM-CD

WILD HORSES – Wild Horses [Rock Candy remastered +8]

More requests on the go with the two WILD HORSES albums ‘Remastered & Reloaded‘ by Rock Candy Records, both including a bunch of previously unreleased tracks included as bonus. Here’s their self-titled “Wild Horses” plus 8 extras.
Rainbow and Thin Lizzy were two of the biggest names in rock during the late ’70s so when Rainbow dispensed with the services of bassist Jimmy Bain, and Thin Lizzy dismissed guitarist Brian Robertson it was almost inevitable that the two would join forces to create a new powerhouse rock group.
Indeed, with Bain and Robertson sharing a London flat together the musical combination was quickly cemented going under the forceful moniker of Wild Horses. The band’s self-titled debut “Wild Horses” still sounds exciting and fresh today, a testimony to the talent involved. This Rock Candy remaster sounds really good and includes…
