This is an early live favourite "Memorial" (written by Ro and Hoppo when they were still in school) from legendary Irish rock band LiR recorded straight from the mixing desk to tape on July 15th, 1990 @ The Baggot Inn, Dublin. It captured the original five-piece line up from Donaghmede displaying what a tight live act they were. Vocals: Dave McGuinness, Guitar: Ro Byrne, Bass: Rob Malone, Keyboards: David Hopkins & Drums: Craig Hutchinson. Thanks for giving us some great nights out lads. Happy Days - Budge P.S Watch out for "Good Cake Bad Cake" - The Story Of Lir" the forthcoming film from award-winning Irish filmaker Shimmy Marcus out this year (2011)

@francisdollarhyde2 You're very welcome Francis. I should thank the lads really for letting me give the soundman a tape to record the gig.

Thanks for posting this. I can still remember the first time seeing LiR in '91 and being completely blown away. This song live was simply amazing.
