I think Thin Lizzy's last ever gig with legendary guitarist Brian Robbo Robertson was in that Music Ibiza 78 "series". At the Bullring September 78. Soon replaced by Gary Moore!

Wow , respect to you ! Definitely Gorham and Robbo though , its well documented it was his last proper gig with Lizzy (guested at a few shows). Think Ive seen one or two photos of the stage set up prior to the show.

You may be right - it was a while ago - but the one thing my wife remembers clearly is that Phil Lynott had a pink shirt & pink tie with his black leather trousers - also Suzi Quatro the other act was absolutely sensational - Happy Days !!!!

Correct. I'm reading the Phil Lynott biography right now and remembered your post. The book also says that, prior to that gig (6/7/78), he came to Ibiza on holidays.

After various months to reform the square, this sign is gone (or I can't spot it!) and the mosaic on the floor is even more wrecked.
