Back in May of 1989 I interviewed British guitar great John Sykes, who was promoting the debut album by his power trio Blue Murder.
Six years earlier Sykes had played on Thunder and Lightning, the final studio album by Thin Lizzy.
So at one point in the conversation I asked him rather stumblingly how he thought that LP ranked with the best of the Lizzy albums, which led him to rave about the classic Live and Dangerous disc of 1978.
