<<Your wish is granted in the TapeOP interview. Visconti says the disc is 20% live, 80% overdubbed. He talks in some detail about the sessions. I guessthey didn't intend to do so many overdubs, it all started with Lynott redoing his bass parts and snowballed from there. Some of the tracks were recorded at soundchecks, so they even had to overdub the audience!>> Yeah, I remember someone telling me one of the songs was recorded at a soundcheck, and then gave enough of a hint that suggested that it was Southbound, because he said you can hear the audience noise fade out at the beginning of the song, like it was cross fading from a live recording to the soundcheck (which I guess would also be live, just not in front of a crowd). I also read one interview where Scott Gorham, one of the guitarists, said that the only overdubs on Live And Dangerous were the back up vocals on Boys Are Back In Town, because he and Brian Robertson ran around the stage so much that they'd be out of breath by the time the chorus came up and they couldn't sing on key, so they had to overdub it. I'll have to check that out. I'd actually like to hear he has anything interesting to say about the other Thin Lizzy records he worked on. I would wonder what he has to say about the Bad Reputation, Black Rose and Chinatown sessions. Especially Black Rose, as that is one of my all time favorite records. ===== May you never thirst!
