Thin Lizzy - Holy War (Hitchin Soundcheck 1983)

Thin Lizzy recorded their soundcheck of the famous Hitchin show. The first thing I'm going to put up is "Holy War", which is kind of neat because of how they build up the sound. Obviously they were figuring out volume levels so it starts out with just the drums and a single guitar, and by the end it's pretty much like it would sound live. The vocals don't even kick in until halfway through. Pretty neat to hear though, and I'm sure you'll feel the same. Enjoy!
