Thin Lizzy

In 1977, Thin Lizzy was riding high on their success following the release of their seminal album "Jailbreak," which came out the previous year in 1976. The live recording of "Dancing in the Moonlight" showcases their electrifying performance style, captured during the height of their popularity. By this time, Thin Lizzy had established themselves as a prominent force in rock music, with their blend of hard rock and Celtic influences resonating deeply with audiences. "Dancing in the Moonlight," while not a single from "Jailbreak," was a popular track that contributed to the band's lively setlist. Notably, the live album "Live and Dangerous," released later in 1978, is often regarded as one of the best live rock albums ever, further solidifying Thin Lizzy's reputation in rock history. This early performance foreshadowed the energy and charisma that would define the band's legacy in live music.
