74-75 - Night Life / Fighting

Recorded in 1974 and 1975, Fighting and Night Life were the first Thin Lizzy albums to feature what is regarded as the classic line up with guitarists Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson    

Night Life was released in November 1974 produced by Ron Nevison and Phil Lynott and features evergreens such as Still in Love with You and Sha La La

Fighting was released in September 1975 and reached no 60 in the UK charts and featured tracks such as Rosalie and Suicide

This box set contains the two versions of the Night Life, the original Album and a new stereo mix by Richard Whittaker as overseen by Guitarist Scott Gorham and mastered by Geoff Pesche at Abbey Road. Fighting is available in a newly mastered form with Four tracks newly re-mixed in Stereo.

The other discs contain unreleased mixes from the bands vault, outtakes, B-Sides, Radio Sessions, and for the first time officially a show from Derby recorded in 1975.

The package housed in a 10 x 10 box is rounded off with sleeve notes by mojo’s Mark Blake and has a 40-page hard backed booklet packed with rare photos and memorabilia with contributions from long time contributor Jim Fitzpatrick.
