Saw them in '77. No gimmicks, no triggered instruments, no video backdrop, just two guitars, bass and drums. Look at that crowd -- no cell phones, no fatties, no tattoos... I miss the 70's.
They got tattoos. Crackerjack. No cell phones? Forget that! No I’m not doing f*’* that s*’*! Security seen me? ‘Don’t turn around’’ You idiot!.. What’s up fella’s” Oh uhh? How’s it goin? Not much’ how bout you?
They should make a movie out of Phil Lynots life. It's just as tragic as Freddy Mercurys life. He was also a musical genius. He was a brilliant song writer. And one of the most underrated bassist of all time. He was also the chief lyricist of the band. In the end drugs did him in. What a loss. Oh ! P.S. Why is Thin Lizzy not in the rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their just as good as Queen. In fact they blew Queen of the stage in Houston in 1977. Live and Dangerous is just as good as Live Killers by Queen. Their albums are more hard rock and more consistent than any Queen album. They should be in the Hall of Fame !
Queen never wanted to be just a hard rock band, but they could rock as hard as any of their contemporaries in their prime (The 70's) including Thin Lizzy.
@@RUDI-UK not sure how anyone could fail to appreciate what Gary Moore brought to the band. Still the greatest guitarist I’ve ever heard. Even his blues stuff was kick ass. So yeah, I’m with you, very much Phil AND Gary.
@@johnnyandluther To put the record straight, Philip Parris Lynott Born 20 August 1949 West Bromwich, Staffordshire, England, my home town & 3mths after I was born.
One one hand, I agree with yo u boyo, but I'm tinkin' we might capture lightning in a bottle again yeah. U2 did us proud aye. But Thin Lizzy was just GRAND!!! IF the music industry don't destroy it all first mate. Slainté. 🍻
Yeah I was too young but I remember hearing them in late 70s as a kid but got into them thru Gary’s solo live record in 82 AMAZING and recently going back to this era. This is awesome. And killer. lol Lynott was a bad ass.
Michael Hollibone Yep - I would have turned 19 in April '78 and I vividly recall this gig as one of the highlights of a misspent youth that included so many legendary Aussie bands - Chisel, Birdman, the Oils, Angels etc. I would have given anything to be Scott Gorham in 78 - blazing guitar solos and that hair. Most of us looked more like Dee Dee Ramone but I'm sure he had his share of groupies too :D
Michael Hollibone Iwas at the tour in Glasgow the following year aged 16 with my best mate Billy who had just passed his car test..AWESOME!!still feel the buzz from the concert driving home...
+Michael Hollibone I was there too! remember when I punched your lights out, in the parking lot, afters, for running your mouth? run it again and see what happens.
@@Nalydyenlo Brian took a temporary leave due to "exhaustion". Robo was out of the band at this point and they were only a month or two from recording Black Rose.
It was indeed free and I was there too. We were sitting on the steps front, lucked a good spot. Remember when someone cut off the electricity not long after this vid ends but they got it back up and played for quite a while longer. Damn good concert!
Saw the Lizzy with Gary Moore in a little club in Birmingham called Barbarella’s round about 1974 about the same time as that mega single came out called Little Darlin’. Mega gig, never forgot that night.
I didn't wait for Thin Lizzy to have a Les Paul. I don't think Les Paul are for something in their sound, it's only high distortion and any amplified instrument plugged into a distortion or OD or fuzz stompbox is able to sound like that...see Iron Maiden: Dave Murray use to play strat, with a lot of delay, it sounds heavy. Explorer, Flying V, SG, Jackson, BC Rich, Gretsch, Telecaster and Strats would have sound the same in Moore and Gorham's hands...
Thin Lizzy is Rock n Roll. One of the best band ever. Great writing. Great front man. Great vocals, singing, musicianship, the list goes on. Thanks for the upload. This is great.
except they don't seem to know that during a guitar solo you should focus on the guy playing the solo. A common mistake when non-music fans direct the cameras.
@@jerrylalhminghlua874 think she means @88 years of age. Be with your beloved baby again. And up there Phil will have someone watching his Guiness intake!
@@BasVossen Thank you..greetings and all good vibes from Mizoram, north - east India... I've know Thin Lizzy from the late 70's, I'm 53 now..the best rock band, no tech add-ups, just raw talent..
I hope you see this comment rampage44km... I just read in classic rock that at a gig on the 1977 tour, Gary Moore broke on stage and did a solo during Queen's set. Would you have been there? Cheers
Actually the first concert I went to - fall 1976. The gong on 'Soldier of Fortune' comes from the gong Roger Taylor used for the start of 'Tie Your Mother Down' (both songs in G - both gongs in G) - you can see it behind Phil on the cover of Live And Dangerous. ;)
today's music ain't got the same soul ! it's just rap rap yap yap ! you think there will be bassists / singers like phil lynnot / roger waters etc.... NEVER !
1978 was the year I was born. Sometimes I regert the fact that I never had the pleasure and the privilege to see Thin Lizzy with Phil Lynott fronting them... Still.. I am a Lizzy Fan since my brother showed me Bad Reputation. When I grew older I purchased all the Albums... and I am proud to have them here in my shelf, but there is one Album that changed my life. Thunder and Lightning! Badass Album.
Thin Lizzy music was great no matter who was playing guitar. They were all bad ass pickers, with a love for playing.The two here, Brian Robertson, John Sykes, Eric Bell. Awesome, Glad to have heard them. Just great music. RIP Phil, Gary
The sound quality isn't to good, but the power of this gig and the the band in general, is really something. And the audience is really within the music. This is so cool, I love it and the raw power of Phil and his bandmates. Thank you for the upload
I saw the great band in Melbourne at Festival Hall, when I later lived in Texas and played drums ,when we did the Cowboy Song , well the memories of seeing that band would almost make me cry (almost !). Phil and Gary ,huge loss to music.
What an amazing gig rock at it's very best spent a big part of my 20's following them around the UK I love these boys I close my eyes and I can still see Phil and Gary above me onstage as if it were yesterday ROCK IN PEACE BOYS !
Crazy thing i learned about lizzy its crazy. The bass player and drummer hold the structure together while the guitars break out in two different octaves giving the world an eargasm phenomenal shit. It sounds like two bag pipes going off electrified its fucking crazy and genius, pure genius. I believe they were a true phenomena.
THANKS FOR HAVING THIS TO VIEW. WATCHING THIS IN 2020 ITS SO SURREAL....I WAS UP NEAR THE FRONT AGED 16 YRS! HOW CRAZY TO SEE THE THE FOOTAGE!,WHY DID THIS BAND NOT GET THE AIR TIME THET DESERVED?!
I often think that guitarists need a band to constrain them, Gary Moore is a good example. I think he was perfect for Thin Lizzy and Thin Lizzy was perfect for him.
I don't agree. Gary Moore is terrific but was always something of a primadonna - needed to be the star. He was best in a band where he's the only guitar player, as he was when he had his own act(s). For a guy that didn't want to be part of Thin in 1973, he appears to slot in rather well with them in 1978 (due only, I would say, to the departure of hard-drinking, fist-breaking Brian Robertson). But I'd contend the over-emotiing here is emblematic of his need for more particular attention. Still, at least he knows the material well enough :)
Amazing gig, the likes of which you will never see again, and a big shout out to Mark Nauseef on the kit, he was a beast here - really driving the whole band!
it could be argued that, next to Phil, or with Phil, Scott Gorham IS Thin Lizzy. He was Phil's most loyal bandmate, co-writer and friend; and will still say so.
I am an old man and there are many things I did in my time that I regret. But there is nothing I regret that I did not do accept one thing. I wasn't at this concert.
I saw them every time they came through Philadelphia. Only the 1980 Chinatown show wasn't excellent. My favourite was the Tower Theatre show of 20 Oct 1977, the night from which the 'Still Dangerous' live album was done. That's me letting out the blood-curdling scream between 'Soldier of Fortune' and 'Jailbrak'. :)
Thanks for posting. I'd bought Fighting, JailBreak and Johnny The Fox when they were new. Loved them. Then I bought Black Rose, intro to the Great Gary Moore and inner sleeve shots from this gig. Amazing !!
Love this band with all my heart. Metallica, Maiden, Motorhead, Nirvana, foo fighters, Megadeth and Queen are unreal for me but Lizzy are 1 of a kind and are my favourite 🤘🏻
I saw them in Newcastle, north of Sydney, my first rock concert. I actually had their records already too. I remember the sound pressure pushing the volume out of my lungs like a mild winding, drunk people being stood on, and thongs (the footwear) being thrown onto the stage. I'll never forget it.
Legendary concert with the rare line-up featuring Mark Nauseef, however it is not complete as there were 5 extra songs : Warriors, Don't Believe A Word, Johnny The Fox Meets Jimmy The Weed, Still In Love With You, Suicide. Phil Lynott & Gary Moore RIP
Paul Murphy suicide was on the VHS this was taken from. It also contained a song from each warmup act, John English and The Sports (“Who Listens to the Radio”)
@@SilverTounge85 from an interview I found online wondering the same thing- Brian Downey said "Oh, yeah. That’s the one I missed. Yeah, you know what I mean? I kind of came down with a kind of pneumonia situation. I was pretty ill, to say the least. And well, I informed our manager about the situation, I was really ill, and he said, “Well, it’s too late to cancel the tour.” And he said, “You don’t mind if we replace you with a stand-in drummer?” And I just, I said, “Well, you know, I’ve really no problem with it.” Because I mean, I was so ill I didn’t want to start arguing the toss about it. And, so, he got Mark Nauseef. Mark Nauseef had to fill in for me, for those couple of dates in Australia. Unfortunately, he had a film crew at one of the major gigs there, at the Opera House. And it was just unfortunate that I missed it because it became a big DVD. Well, not on DVD, it wasn’t released promotionally, but it became a big Lizzy fans favourite, not DVD, a video. And then, it was just one of those things, I couldn’t travel, I was just so ill. And they just had to replace me for those, and the dates were confirmed, you couldn’t get out of the contract. So, they had to fulfill those days no matter what."
Look at Phil Lynott... miss him as well as Moore (referring to Mr. Tim Hanson's comment). Thank God for video, even though they're gone they never really do leave us!

Saw them in '77. No gimmicks, no triggered instruments, no video backdrop, just two guitars, bass and drums. Look at that crowd -- no cell phones, no fatties, no tattoos... I miss the 70's.
No fatties. You have gotta love that -= fuck you McDonalds and Hungry Jacks :)
No fatties Lol
No, nothing cell phones-

True, in the 70s there was always one really fat kid in your year, not a few in each classroom!
They should make a movie out of Phil Lynots life. It's just as tragic as Freddy Mercurys life. He was also a musical genius. He was a brilliant song writer. And one of the most underrated bassist of all time. He was also the chief lyricist of the band. In the end drugs did him in. What a loss. Oh ! P.S. Why is Thin Lizzy not in the rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their just as good as Queen. In fact they blew Queen of the stage in Houston in 1977. Live and Dangerous is just as good as Live Killers by Queen. Their albums are more hard rock and more consistent than any Queen album. They should be in the Hall of Fame !
who cares about the Hall of Fame??
I dont think he is underrated - never heard anyone saying bad things about his play.
Henrik Carmel True. But unfortunately, your casual music fan couldn’t even tell you who he is or who Thin Lizzy is.
Queen never wanted to be just a hard rock band, but they could rock as hard as any of their contemporaries in their prime (The 70's) including Thin Lizzy.
@@erictoniaschwab1009 all they know is 'Boys are Back'.

I saw them in Arizona on this tour with queen. They BLEW QUEEN OFF THE STAGE.. Legendary show in the Phoenix area. Talked about for decades.
Back when kids loved rock n' roll...........I miss these days :(

So true🙃

one of the best bands ever.
Hands down ;)
You're speaking the truth with this one brother.
No The best band ever.
I went to this. No-one has said it was a FREE concert. The event of the year. Awesome.
It was indeed free and I was there too. We were sitting on the steps front, lucked a good spot. Remember when someone cut off the electricity not long after this vid ends but they got it back up and played for quite a while longer. Damn good concert!
Yes. Before FM radio it was basically 2SM and they staged 'Rocktober' as a free gig. What a setting at the Opera House.
so very cool. Oz rocks.
Weird that nobody gives Scott Gorham props for being a mainstay TL and Phil's right hand man.
Agreed.
Everybody knows . A Lizzy hero.
I do. Have always done. Shall always do.
Well...it goes without saying really, same with Downey.
Not true... Scott is appreciated by the Fans.
I always like thin lizzy, pure original rock, long live to this band
One of the greatest rock band of all time bar none
41 years ago today. 29 October 1978. I wish I had seen Thin Lizzy when Gary Moore was with them.

R.I.P. Philip Parris Lynott. That was a majestic live performance!!!!!!
Gary Moore finest guitarist ever!
I can't argue with you....
@callyharley 👍
Correct
Great blues player!!!
Greatest harmony lead band ever, if this doesn't make you want to have a Les Paul and a Marshall nothing will. Today's bands pale in comparison.
Pure gold, leaving dust to other bands even after 40 years
I didn't wait for Thin Lizzy to have a Les Paul. I don't think Les Paul are for something in their sound, it's only high distortion and any amplified instrument plugged into a distortion or OD or fuzz stompbox is able to sound like that...see Iron Maiden: Dave Murray use to play strat, with a lot of delay, it sounds heavy.

Amen, Bill, amen! A Marshall, a Les, a wah and, if you’re feelin extra funky, a phaser or univibe. Done.
Helluva bass player and singer.....love this song ! The way he changed the bass line from the original song there......nice job! RIP Phil Lynot

@Tom Jackson Brian Robertson,
@@chirkolo: It's not Brian Robertson. He'd left in '78. Gary Moore became Lizzy's official guitarist that same year, and this is '79. It's Gary Moore.
Yeah it’s Gary Moore a great player but no better than the hugely influential Brian Robertson
I was there! Stage left. Fifteen,blew my mind!
1978, Lynott top of his game
Was there ever a more melodic hard rocking badass twin guitar band perfection as THIN LIZZY !!

There will never be music like this again.

Man, those were rock giants. And guitar gods. What a duo of guitarists! Phil introduced both as lead guitar.
they ARE both lead guitar. The great luxury and best feature of Thin LIzzy, musically.
He did the same both times I saw them.

Gary Moore rocked me here!
Its sounds more metal with Gary ..before Sykes
One of the best rock n roll bands ever. Their music still sounds great, the true test of time.
Possibly the best live band ever awesome
Gary Moore was so tight! We really loved them in Oz. Thank you Kenny Everett.
When Gary plays Waltzing Matilda it’s gold
Thanks for posting.
I'd bought Fighting, JailBreak and Johnny The Fox when they were new. Loved them.
Then I bought Black Rose, intro to the Great Gary Moore and inner sleeve shots from this gig.
Amazing !!
I think Fighting and Night Life are grossly underrated. But surely Jailbreak, Bad Reputation and Black Rose are the very best albums.
How fucking good is this.... ill tell you's its the fooking dogs bollox ... love you Philo
Love this band with all my heart.
Metallica, Maiden, Motorhead, Nirvana, foo fighters, Megadeth and Queen are unreal for me but Lizzy are 1 of a kind and are my favourite 🤘🏻

Paul Murphy suicide was on the VHS this was taken from. It also contained a song from each warmup act, John English and The Sports (“Who Listens to the Radio”)
Yes, I couldn't believe they would have left out don't believe a word.
Why did Mark Nauseef play? Where was Brian?
@@SilverTounge85 from an interview I found online wondering the same thing- Brian Downey said "Oh, yeah. That’s the one I missed. Yeah, you know what I mean? I kind of came down with a kind of pneumonia situation. I was pretty ill, to say the least. And well, I informed our manager about the situation, I was really ill, and he said, “Well, it’s too late to cancel the tour.” And he said, “You don’t mind if we replace you with a stand-in drummer?” And I just, I said, “Well, you know, I’ve really no problem with it.” Because I mean, I was so ill I didn’t want to start arguing the toss about it. And, so, he got Mark Nauseef. Mark Nauseef had to fill in for me, for those couple of dates in Australia.
Unfortunately, he had a film crew at one of the major gigs there, at the Opera House. And it was just unfortunate that I missed it because it became a big DVD. Well, not on DVD, it wasn’t released promotionally, but it became a big Lizzy fans favourite, not DVD, a video. And then, it was just one of those things, I couldn’t travel, I was just so ill. And they just had to replace me for those, and the dates were confirmed, you couldn’t get out of the contract. So, they had to fulfill those days no matter what."

Great concert, ICONIC BAND!! Gary Moore really knows how to shred that guitar!! HELL YEAH!!!
These guys are a great example of humans being humans. I really believe fame did not mean a thing to them. They just loved music.
There's nothing like twin Gibson lead guitars!
And Sykes!
I wonder if Gary Moore is playing "Greenie" Peter Greene's '59 Las Paul Standard?
@@MrIgorek13 he's not in the same league.
it's pick up's more than anything else.. the guitar isn't that important to the sound...
