In 2022, a deluxe box set of the album was released, containing the original live recordings that made up the album. It delves into the band’s history, the dynamics between members, and the stories behind these legendary recordings.

The band began touring to promote the album, but after a one-off gig in Ibiza, Lynott and Robertson had an acrimonious argument.Lynott said that there were a few necessary overdubs, but "anything else would have ruined the atmosphere on those recordings and made a mockery of putting out a live album".

These seven shows from London, Toronto and Philadelphia have been newly mixed by Ben Findlay from the original multi-tracks and mastered by Andy Pearce, overseen by legendary Lizzy guitarist Scott Gorham. of them fell out during the transport - even worse, 3 of the most generously scratched CDs kept occasionally skipping and ultimately freezing on the same track on every player I tried, even after I thoroughly cleaned them a number of times. But it's not all about these tracks, the other tracks aren't here as fillers, and while the writing and playing quality is high throughout special mention needs to be made of the beautiful "Southbound" and the sublime seven minutes of "Still In Love With You" from the "Bad Reputation" and "Nightlife" albums respectively. Live and Dangerous by Thin Lizzy is one of those classic live albums from the 1970’s that always gets featured in those top live albums of all time lists.

It was also the last Thin Lizzy album to feature guitarist Brian Robertson, [a] who left the band shortly after its release. It has continued to attract critical acclaim and it has appeared in several lists of the greatest live albums of all time.
