''Life'' (subtitled ''Live'') is a double live album by Irish band Thin Lizzy , released in 1983. (see 1983 In Music ). This double album was recorded during their farewell tour in 1983, principally on Hammersmith Odeon . Phil Lynott had felt reluctantly that it was time to disband the group after the 1983 tour and to mark the occasion, ex-Lizzy guitarists Eric Bell (1969-73), Brian Robertson (1974-8) and Gary Moore (1974 and 1978-9) joined the band on stage at the end of these gigs to do some numbers. This was called "The All-Star Jam".

TRIVIA


  • The version of "Renegade", "Hollywood" & "Killer on the Loose" featuring Snowy White had been performed two years earlier when White was still with the band. Ironically, White's participation was only credited to "Renegade".


  • During the performance of "The Rocker" all of the guitarists (except for Snowy White) played at the same time (John Sykes, Scott Gorham, Brian Robertson, Eric Bell & Gary Moore) for a grand total of 8 members on stage performing at once. (Including Darren Wharton.)
