The 'Live at the National Stadium Dublin' concert was filmed in 1975 and, from memory, the guitar harmonies weren't quite as tight as they'd become the following year. I think many guitarists underestimate the degree to which Gorham and Robertson worked on that twin-guitar sound, even going so far as to develop complementary vibrato techniques.

From about 3.25 onwards, IMO you can hear the Lizzy in the solo

As to 'Don't believe a word', for me, I think that's one of the finest wah solos and BR was a fantastic exponent of that pedal. Only last month, I nabbed a Coloursound Wah Wah and that particular wah sound is in there!
For me, 'Live & Dangerous' taught me how to play guitar and I was lucky to see them on the Renegade Tour with Snowy White and on the Thunder & Lightning Tour with John Sykes, but I would've loved to have seen the classic line-up with Brian Robertson and Scott Gorham, even the next one with Gary Moore would've been good.
There's too many favourite TL songs but I'll go with the Live & Dangerous version of 'Still in love with you' for those 2 fabulous solos. Incidentally, this is Gary Moore's version of it on a B side -
