Once in a Lifetime is a live album by Scottish Celtic rock band Runrig. It was released in 1988.
A review from AllMusic called it one of the best live albums ever: "Capturing the band in its best milieu – live – Once in a Lifetime is arguably one of the ten best live albums ever, if the test of a live album is the effect a band has on its audience that particular night. Alternately exhilarating and soul-stirring, its highlight is a rendition of "Loch Lomond" that has to be heard to be believed."[http://www.allmusic.com/album/once-in-a-lifetime-r17107]
