		Thin Lizzy first made an impact with a hard-rocking version of a traditional Irish folk song, Whiskey in the jar - it made the UK top ten in 1973.
		Thereafter, Thin Lizzy abandoned their Irish heritage altogether and focused exclusively on rocking hard but it took a while for them to establish their career.

	Thin Lizzy - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Thin Lizzy
		After the showband era, Thin Lizzy was the first great Irish rock band and the first Irish rock group to gain an international following.
		Their first chart success was the uncharacteristic Irish folk song ‘Whiskey in the Jar’ (1972) and their major breakthrough came in 1976 with the album Jailbreak, which introduced their distinctive harmony guitars sound.
		Despite their success, the band always maintained a capacity for self-destruction and finally split in 1982 under financial pressure and the worsening of Lynott's heroin habit which led to his premature death.

		Thin Lizzy was blessed with a succession of brilliant guitarists who complimented Phil Lynott's songwriting.
		As a live band, Thin Lizzy's classic line-up of Lynott on bass and vocals, drummer Brian Downey, and Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson on dual lead guitars was captured on the 1978 album, Live and Dangerous.

		THE Thin Lizzy boys were back in town and didn't really hang about as they kicked off their latest tour to a packed and very appreciative crowd at the Carling Academy.
		Scott Gorham, the last of Lizzy's original twin guitar heroes, showed he was still as nifty darting up and down the old fretboard as he was 20 years ago.
		Bounding on stage at an unfashionably early 8.30pm, the band proceeded to rip through their version of Thin Lizzy's greatest hits.

	CD Times - Thin Lizzy
		Listening to the compilation, nothing is more obvious than the fact that, when all is said and done, Thin Lizzy where a band terminally restrained by their lack of real talent or artistry.
		Lizzy were much more than a pub-rock/metal band, they had far more 'pop' tendencies than any of their peers (that's good 'pop', not 'Pop Idol' pop !), which was reflected in the number of hit singles they had.
		That's not to say that Lizzy were devoid of such folly, but it would be pure laziness to simply pigeonhole their talent as 'restrained'.

		THIN LIZZY strode into town last night, but something was missing and there are no prizes for guessing what, or whom.
		With perhaps the greatest rock and roll back catalogue since Led Zeppelin or The Who, Thin Lizzy are one of those bands that live in a nether world of myth and legend, but without Phil Lynott the magic was gone.
		Opening up with Jailbreak, the band worked through the full Thin Lizzy set; from Dancin' In The Moonlight to Black Rose the audience were treated to trademark duelling guitars with only Whisky In The Jar missing.

		The night was a night of greatest hits that included 'Bad Reputation', 'Chinatown', 'Still In Love With You', 'Suicide', 'Cowboy Song' and the biggest hit of all 'Boys Are Back In Town'.
		It was a great nostalgic show that allowed fans like myself, who had never heard Thin Lizzy play live before, appreciate what a great band this was and what more they could have provided for us.

		With their anthemic, working class songs led by relentlessly blistering twin guitars, this officially endorsed Thin Lizzy DVD is sure to satisfy the most demanding hard rock fans.
		Every single Lizzy album is reviewed and assessed by a team of leading music critics, writers and working musicians to produce an authoritative, comprehensive and incisive appraisal of the music of Thin Lizzy.
		Hard hitting and uncensored, this film was made in conjunction with the Black Rose Memorial Appeal (think they mean the Roisin Dubh Trust) organised by Philomena Lynott, and dedicated to raising a bronze statue to the great man in his native Dublin.
