Life is a live album by Irish band Thin Lizzy, released in 1983. (see 1983 in music). It was recorded at their final London show at the Hammersmith Odeon. Phil Lynott had felt reluctantly that it was time to disband the group after the 1983 tour and to mark the occasion, ex-Lizzy guitarists Eric Bell (1970-3), Brian Robertson (1974-8) and Gary Moore (1978-9) joined the band onstage at the end of this gig. The band would not play together again until after Lynott's untimely death in 1986.
