  In November 1982, when Thin Lizzy recorded their live performance of "Cold Sweat" in Hitchin, London, the band was in a transitional phase following the release of their album "Thunder and Lightning" earlier that same year. This album marked a significant moment in their career as it was their last studio release before their original breakup in 1983. "Thunder and Lightning" showcased a heavier sound, aligning with the evolving musical landscape of the early '80s, and featured some of the band's most beloved tracks. The live recording captures the energy and intensity of their performance, highlighting Thin Lizzy's resilience and enduring appeal despite internal struggles. Notably, this period was characterized by the presence of guitarist John Sykes, whose unique style had a significant impact on the band's sound during this era.
