A great live album
lexo-2 | 06/19/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Rock "experts" rate Lizzy's earlier "Live and Dangerous" as being their best live album, but for my money this roaring monster is both bigger in sound and in soul. "Life" was recorded on Thin Lizzy's last tour(s) and while there are couple of dodgy songs (I don't really think that "Thunder and Lightning" is quite up to the standard of the band that produced the glorious "Cowboy Song"), there's a big, fat, valedictory tone about the whole album that's very satisfying. The last twenty-odd minutes are the high point, as all of the band's old guitarists take turns guesting on signature songs; Brian Robertson on "Emerald", Gary Moore on a stirring version of "Black Rose" and Eric Bell thrashing up a storm on "The Rocker" which ends up with about five or six guitars at once, as all the old boys troop on for a last bow. A suitably epic epitaph for a great band, easily the best Irish band ever, in this (young) Irishman's opinion."

""The sun goes down" - brilliant live track - 1984 in a field in Reading standing on a car hood, August sun set, listening to TL play this live. beautiful. The song is so poignant too.

the slow bluesey version of "don't believe a word" also brilliant.

"still in love with you" for a band of hard-rockers, they do slow smoochy numbers incredibly well.

When I was a kid it seems TL turned up to play a song on virtually every show then.

I briefly met Mr Lynott the year before he died, at a gig in London, I had him autograph a cigarette packet, and he cheekily winked and took a couple from the packet for himself.

Just great that this album exists as a testimony to such legends. x"
