Thin Lizzy - For Those Who Love to Live (Rare Live Cut)

This live version of "For Those Who Love to Live was performed at Liverpool, England on 11/9/1974. I had to cut it before they did the intros of the band members because the whole version is almost 13 minutes long, but the highlights are right here. Lynott sings a different set to lyrics to "FTWLtL", which hadn't even come out yet, and also includes lyrics to what would become "The Freedom Song". The quality isn't the greatest, but this song is amazing and this version in particular is quite rare. Enjoy!

what a fantastic rendition of this song, they sound like they're having a great time performing it! its a shame the quality isn't great I wonder if there is any way of cleaning it up.

A first generation copy of this show was just uploaded online about two weeks back. It has better sound than this (this might be 3rd or 4th gen at best)...enough that Lynott is quite audible and you can make out more of the words.

No, it's only on DIME (dimeadozen) for now. It's a torrent site and that's the only place ATM where it can be found.

This may be my favorite Lizzy tune -- either this, "Wild One," or "Shades of a Blue Orphanage."

Thanks so much for this otherwise buried gem.
