Description
A miraculous new discovery of a live album from the Gary Moore era! This time, the extremely rare 1977 recording will be released for the first time in the world! What is infused into this work is “January 30, 1977 Toledo performance”. This is the first appearance audience recording. Speaking of “LIZZY with Gary”, the classic Sydney official pro shot and the Mike Millard recording “L.A. FORUM 1978” that was a big hit last year also come to mind, but they were both from 1978. This work is a different record from 1977. In fact, the period from when Robo left due to an injury to when Gary officially joined was a really complicated time, even for enthusiasts. This is a good opportunity to check out the chaotic member changes on the timeline. 1976《November 23rd: Robo injured → Gary joins》1977 January 3rd: London performance January 18th – March 18th: North America #1 (37 performances) ←★Coco★《March 25th Sunday: Announcement of Robo’s withdrawal → formation of trio》《June: “BAD REPUTATION” completed》《July 20: Announcement of Robo’s return》 ・August 6th – September 4th: Europe #1 (12 performances)・September 21st – November 5th: North America #2 (32 performances) November 11th – December 17th: UK (28 performances) 1978 March 29th – July 6th: Europe #2 ( 16 performances: Robo leaves again) [July 30: Gary rejoins] This is the flow from Robo’s injury to Gary’s official joining. It all started in November 1976 when Robo got injured in a club fight and was unable to play the guitar. Not only was his most recent U.S. tour canceled, but he will also need several months of treatment. Gary Moore, an old friend of Phil Lynott, was called there (he has been involved with THIN LIZZY since April 1974, at the end of the trio era). After completing a North American tour in January 1977, THIN LIZZY followed the flow of “leaving Robo → forming a trio → returning to Robo → producing LIVE AND DANGEROUS → leaving Robo again” until July 1978. Gary officially joins us. I’ve written a lot of things, but there is one point here. The live performance of “LIZZY with Gary” that was realized during the changeover period was only the 38 performances of “London + North America #1” mentioned above. This is a period where there are extremely few records compared to after 1978. In this work, you can experience that extremely rare period on-site. This work, recorded at such a Toledo performance, is a brilliant and clear masterpiece recording. Although it is a vintage audience and cannot be compared with Millard’s miraculous recording “L.A. FORUM 1978”, it seems to be an official pro shot of the Sydney performance (of course, the Sydney pro shot was originally broadcast on TV, so it is not an official pro shot) Although it was improved, it was not at the highest level). Although it cannot be expected to have the close contact of a soundboard, the clarity and fineness of detail due to the transparent atmosphere are comparable to Sydney SBD. Some people may think, “It’s an MSG recording!”, but please forget that. What is depicted with such brilliant sound is a valuable full show of two Irish heroes overlapping sounds. “North America #1” was a short set on the undercard of QUEEN, but in that short time a set list different from 1978 is unfolding. Here, let’s compare it with the most famous official video “THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN” from Gary era THIN LIZZY. Jailbreak (5 songs) / Jailbreak / Emerald (★) / The Boys Are Back In Town / Cowboy Song / Warriors (★) Others (6 songs) / Nightlife: Still In Love With You (★) / Sha-La-La (★)・Johnny the Heron: Massacre (★)/Johnny The Fox Meets Jimmy The Weed (★・Others: Baby Drives Me Crazy/Me And The Boys (★) *Note: “★” mark is the official video of the Sydney performance Songs that can’t be heard on “THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN”…The majority of the songs are songs that can’t be heard on “THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN”, but more specifically, “Sha-“. “La-La”, “Emerald”, “Massacre”, and “Johnny The Fox Meets Jimmy The Weed” can’t be heard on Millard’s new masterpiece album “L.A. FORUM 1978”. In particular, the two songs played by Gary and “Sha -La-La” may be the first time you hear it in this movie. Phil Lynott and Gary Moore are sure to produce great performances and songs. Rock is about the chemistry between people. The emphasis is on “reaction” and “magic”, and I think there has never been a combination where the “1+1” solution is as huge as this one.You can experience a full show where the charm of these two young people explodes. Cultural heritage. The first audience recording of the “January 30, 1977 Toledo performance” during Gary Moore’s tenure.It is a famous recording discovered in 2021, and its clarity and vividness are the official sound of the Sydney performance. It is comparable to the sound board. There is plenty of repertoire that cannot be heard in the Sydney performance pro shot, especially Gary’s “Sha-La-La”, “Massacre”, and “Johnny The Fox Meets Jimmy The Weed” are extremely rare. This is a cultural heritage album where you can experience a full show featuring the famous duo Phil & Gary.
