Limited Edition Blu-Ray /DVD / CD Set

A special package featuring the acclaimed documentary of Thin Lizzy frontman Phil Lynott, Songs For While I’m Away and Thin Lizzy The Boys Are Back In Town Live At The Sydney Opera House October 1978. It's available in two different formats: 2xDVD+CD and Blu-ray+DVD+CD, (with the Phil Lynott documentary being featured on Blu-ray). The Sydney concert is on DVD and CD in both packages.

Utilizing numerous songs from both the Thin Lizzy and Phil Lynott solo catalog, along with interviews with Lynott (archival), friends and family, Songs For While I’m Away traces Lynott’s life from growing up in 1950’s Dublin to becoming Ireland’s premiere rock star, while also gaining insight into his family life.

Songs For While I’m Away features interviews with his wife Caroline, daughters Sarah and Cathleen and Thin Lizzy bandmates Scott Gorham, Darren Wharton, Eric Bell and Midge Ure. Additional interviews come from James Hetfield (Metallica), Huey Lewis, Adam Clayton (U2), Suzi Quatro and more.

The concert has previously been released in a variety of forms over the years on VHS, Laserdisc and DVD. This version features cleaned up video and remixed audio from multi tracks, presenting the show in the highest quality that has been made available. Key to this version is the discovery of 5 additional performances from the concert that have never been officially available. Because there are noticeable quality differences in the visual of the original concert and the ‘lost’ tracks, they are available to view separately on the disc and also available to view in sequence with the main concert. The CD features the show in its performance order.
