purpleblob Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Watched the doc. last night and listening to live & dangerous now Was interesting to hear Brian Robertson, who by his own admission was out of it for a lot of the time, state categorically that he didn't overdub any parts Mind you I'm not sure I care. It's still one of the great albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatback Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Missed the very beginning - did the band Skid Row get a mention? Huge influence, and Brush Shields (outstanding bass player) pushed PL into playing in the first place. Doesn't get much credit usually.

Donnyboy Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Bugger , wanted to see this I'm sure it'll be on again. I like to keep up to date with what's hip -got the remastered L&D for my 47th birthday!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest there was a fair bit missing. No interview with Gary Moore which was a shame given his recent passing. This said, I hadn't realised Midge Ure played guitar briefly when Gary left mid tour (or maybe I did know but it was so long ago my poor old memory had discarded that piece of trivia).

KevB Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 The first I knew of Midge Ure's involvement was when I got the later live album 'Life' and noticed he was on that with a lot of other past members guesting so then checked it out.

WalMan Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Caught most of it by chance, channel hopping.

Whatever, a great band I was many times in Brighton & Portsmouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmsheep Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Watched the programme a couple of weeks ago - I think that it`s a shame they totally dismissed the last couple of albums ("Renegade" and "Thunder and Lightning") as not being `Lizzy. That`s the era that some of us discovered the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevB Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I'm not a huge fan of the band but I think Renegade in particular gets chronically overlooked. Nice variety of styles and some great hooks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepbass5 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Thanks for putting that link on, just had to sit and watch that right away. I was lucky enough to see them live twice, He was so charismatic as a front man, they were a real Lads band I don’t remember seeing a single girl in the audience at the time. The Rocker epitomised the band for me, but his ballads were a beautiful contrast. Great Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steantval Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Good programme. Doesn't Robbo look f*cked up, needs to see a dentist, reminded me of Sean McGoohan of the Pogues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
