Grand Slam (Phil Lynott) - Dear Miss Lonely Hearts/Some Guys Have All the Luck (Live 1984)

*As requested by Princey666*

After listening to a few of these, I determined this was the best example I had of this song. This is taken from the Nostell Priory Festival in August 1984. I had posted a couple other tracks from this gig that came from a different, lesser quality source tape. This almost sounds like this comes from a soundboard to me, or perhaps an FM. I don't really know. I just know it sounds great, and I hope you enjoy it!

I know for a fact this was on his compilation disc "Dedication"

I hope you don't mean 'Dedication: The Very Best of Thin Lizzy', because there's two different versions (the US and European) and neither one have that song on it...much less this particular version of it.

I will say that it IS remotely possible that this particular track ended up on 'Twilight's Last Gleaming', as I haven't listened to the disc for awhile, and I know all those tracks aren't from the 4 Dec Marquee GS show as claimed. I doubt that too however. This version should be "new".

[SoldierofFortune07]

Sorry, i think i misnamed it. it was a long rectangular case and had 4 cd's. I think it's called, Kings, Vagabonds, Warriors and Angels

or something to that effect

[blacksabfan]

Right. That had the studio version of this song. The same version found on 'Solo In Soho'.

Nostell Priory Festival in August 1984 was recorded by BBC and broadcast on Friday Rock Show. I have tape from radio broadcast but runs out before end (i.e. after 45 mins.) and in the middle of Dedication which I believe was used for Phil's vocals and bass for the Thin Lizzy release of Dedication on the compilation of the same name.

I love it so much at 4:42 when Phil says "Where the fuck are we?"

[aloneagainor1]

i was at this festival. and what a festival it was.

[soutltank]

I didn't know that 'Some Guys' was a Rod Stewart cover. I should have guessed, seeing as there is a Police cover in here too.
