Thin Lizzy

By January 1, 1983, when Thin Lizzy performed the live concert featured in the video, they were at a pivotal point in their career. The band's album prior to this recording was "Thunder and Lightning," released in 1983, which would become their final studio album. This period marked a significant transition for Thin Lizzy as they were navigating changes in the lineup and the effects of shifting musical trends. Notably, this concert showcases the energetic performances that characterized their live shows, featuring classics such as "Jailbreak" and "The Boys Are Back in Town," which highlighted their legacy as one of the leading rock bands of the era. The year also saw the band engaging with a newer wave of heavy metal and hard rock influences that echoed in their subsequent works. This live performance thus stands as a testament to their enduring appeal and musicianship, even as they approached the end of their original run.
