It’s not as big a “fix” as I thought it would be. By the mid-1970s, Thin Lizzy had stabilised around its founding members – singer and bassist Phil Lynott and drummer Brian Downey – and guitarists Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson. The band had scored hit singles and developed a strong live following, including headlining the Reading Festival. Robertson had briefly left the band in 1977 but subsequently returned. [2] After working in Visconti’s studio, the band went to Paris for a weekend to finish it at Studio Des Dames. According to Visconti, “Doing an ‘in concert’ album this way was cheating, slightly, but the album is about 55% live and the overdubs gave the poorly recorded performances a more uniform sound. This all took a lot more time than we planned, which meant I was again late for Bowie’s album. On the plus side, Live and Dangerous became a big hit… Even U2 claim it as an early influence.” Crew [People who were involved on the tour: 'Bad Reputation’ 1977], Promotion [Promoters] – Howard Rose Agency Ltd.Matrix / Runout (Runout, D-side, [stamped, N letter rotated 90°], variant 5): 10 AA9199658 2Y 320 N 1 Promotion [Hammersmith Odeon for 'Johnny The Fox' Tour 1976] – Adrian Hopkins (3), Adrian Hopkins Promotions
