“Throughout the ’90s, several ex-Thin Lizzy members would regroup from time to time to play tribute shows for their fallen leader, Phil Lynott. Eventually, guitarists Scott Gorham and John Sykes (the latter of whom also supplied lead vocals) decided to form a full-time, new version of Lizzy, supplemented by Darren Wharton (who was also a member of Lizzy towards the end), as well as hard rock studio vets Marco Mendoza (bass) and Tommy Aldridge (drums). 2000 saw the modern-day Lizzy lineup issue a live set for the CMC International label, One Night Only. Recorded a… Continue reading...

“It is widely agreed among Thin Lizzy fans (and by the band themselves) that their 1981 release, Renegade, was their worst. The raw, rocking Lizzy of the past (Jailbreak, Black Rose, etc.) is nowhere to be found here; in its place is a keyboard-heavy rock band with blatant pop leanings and a production too similar to British heavy metal bands of the early ’80s. New guitarist Snowy White never truly fit into the band (both musically and visually), and it was never more apparent than on Renegade. As with its predecessor, Chinatown, heavy drug use plagued the sessions… Continue reading...

Thin Lizzy – Thunder And Lightning (1983)

“Thin Lizzy’s final studio release, Thunder and Lightning, was their most consistent album since 1979’s Black Rose. Guitarist John Sykes replaced Snowy White, and the new blood must have inspired Lynott and company to write some of their best compositions in years. Although a pop-metal production hinders the tracks, there’s more of a harder edge present than on their last release, Renegade. While the title track served as the ensuing tour’s raging opener, half-baked lyrics detailing a fistfight and an unwarranted synth-solo weakens what should have been a straight-ahead rocker. But such heavies as “This Is the… Continue reading...

“While Thin Lizzy’s previous release, Black Rose, was a focused, inspired hard rock masterwork, its follow-up, 1980’s Chinatown, was a letdown. Guitarist Gary Moore was a major reason for the predecessor’s success, but he quit during the subsequent tour (eventually replaced by ex-Pink Floyd touring guitarist Snowy White). Also, leader Phil Lynott and guitarist Scott Gorham were indulging heavily in hard drugs by this point, which was obviously taking its toll. And since producer Tony Visconti was not on board again, the lively production that played such a prominent part in the success of their past few releases was… Continue reading...

“Named after the musicians’ previous bands (Bell’s Shades of Blue and Lynott and Downey’s Orphanage), the disappointing Shades of a Blue Orphanage proved that Decca Records had absolutely no idea of what to do with Thin Lizzy. The complex arrangements of the title track and “The Rise and Dear Demise of the Funky Nomadic Tribes” are as overblown and disjointed as their titles. “I Don’t Want to Forget How to Jive” is a lame, ’50s-style rockabilly number, and “Call the Police” is only saved by Lynott’s captivating tell-tale lyrics –… Continue reading...

1974 | Label: Mercury

“It’s curious that Night Life — the first album Thin Lizzy recorded for Mercury, the first album to feature guitarists Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson, the album that in many ways kicked off their classic era — is in many ways a complete anomaly within their catalog. It’s a subdued, soulful record, smooth in ways that Thin Lizzy never were before and rarely were afterwards. To be sure, the title Night Life is accurate but not in the sense of this providing a soundtrack for a night out on the town — quite… Continue reading...

1971 | Label: Deram

“Thin Lizzy were originally conceived as a power trio in the image of Cream and the Jimi Hendrix Experience, but Eric Bell lacked the charisma of these groups’ guitarists, forcing vocalist/bassist Philip Lynott to take center stage from day one. Despite his already poetic, intensely personal lyrics, Lynott was only beginning to develop as a songwriter, and the band’s unfocused, folk-infused early efforts are a far cry from their mid-’70s hard rock glory. Recorded on a shoestring budget, their self-titled debut is surprisingly mellow; many songs, such as “Clifton Grange Hotel” and “The Friendly… Continue reading...

“After achieving a reluctant Top Ten hit with a rock version of the traditional Irish pub ballad “Whiskey in the Jar,” Thin Lizzy began work on Vagabonds of the Western World — their third, and ultimately last album for Decca Records. The single’s surprise success gave the band bargaining power to demand more money and time to record, resulting in their first sonically satisfying album. The environmentally-conscious R&B of “Mama Nature Said” kicks things off with Eric Bell leading the way on slide guitar. The overblown “The… Continue reading...
