Why the fuck did I say this lol this is the only Lizzy song I know Edit: the original comment was from Danny O’Neal, I’m Derrick Oneal and I thought I wrote that first comment when I was drunk or something
This line up has influenced so many musicians over the years. Just a killer vibe and funk and hard edge that made them completely unique. I will never get tired of listening to Thin Lizzy.
So true, they epitomise the two guitar harmony thing and Phil was the consummate frontman. Downey an amazing timekeeper 🎸 #areyoureadytorock HELL YEAH let’s boogie ❤️
If anyone ever wants to know how a 70’s rock is supposed to look, you’re seeing it as you watch this video. Thin Lizzy absolutely was a cool ass, kick ass band. Damn I miss the 70’s.
I saw this lineup open for queen at the University of Maryland in 1976. I've been screaming from the mountaintops about how phenomenal Thin Lizzy was my entire life. So underrated and so under appreciated.
...u r lucky man...there's been a rumour that Thin Lizzy blew up Queen from stage...like AcDc with Bon Scott blew Kiss when they opened concert tour for them...if anyone knows something please share the info ..thanx
@@vukasindimitrijevic6843 Both bands were incredible when I saw them. Other than seeing Pink Floyd live I would probably say it was the best show I've ever seen.
This is so pure, this is Thin Lizzy with magician Phil Lynott. Heard them first time 1979 i think, when a friend had bought and played the Black Rose album for me. We first listened to "Do anything you want to" ,,man those drums in the beginning , I was hooked. One day I will go to Dublin and pay my respect for the man , the poet, the musical genius
Phil is one cool cat, Brian and Scott are such great guitar players, but boy my man Brian on drums is one criminally underrated musician. I love and respect him so much.
Scott's still great...he's an excellent player but doesn't get the credit compared to Moore and Robertson. I think he's got an amazing stage presence, 2nd only to Phil...
I see him as the coach driver , reigning in his wild horses out front. He kept just enough of a hold on them. Underrated? Not among his peers and the real music press (who largely don't exist anymore ). 👍
Absolutely. It blows my mind whenever I see a list of drummers, he is left off for the cliche' list that includes Bonham and Peart. Don't get me wrong, they are classic and timeless and deserve their accolades, but Brian Downey is a drummer that makes me stop and really appreciate his playing. With Thin Lizzy, he got to play a wide spectrum of of styles all of which he excelled in.
Robbo and Scott, best combination Thin Lizzy had in my opinion. They had some fabulous guitarists after Robbo left, they made some great music after he left also.... but the groove was never the same. Robbo was Thin Lizzy's best guitarist in his prime. I was lucky to see them live with this classic line up. Saw them with other line ups also... but the classic had the groove.
I couldn't agree more. Sorry Gary :) Yes Robbo and Scott just meshed so well together and that's not taking anything away from all the other guitarists who were all fantastic. Never a big John Sykes fan though I must say. Nothing personal but I think that Phil was scratching a bit in the final years. Just my opinion in saying that though
@@MrPnew1 yeah true. It could be argued that as pure lead guitarist genius then Gary Moore was that absolutely. I just found that his playing was so dominant that it was over powering to the point of jarring in the Lizzy context. The last album to have that "groove" I keep referring to was, in my opinion, Bad Reputation. Some good stuff followed no doubt. But it lacked something that elevated them above their peers.
Ironically Phil was born in England and had a father from British Guiana, Scott Gorham is American and Brian Robertson is Scottish. Brian Downey is the only real Irishman in this version of the band.
@@FalseTeeth-o4yI bet you're real fun at parties. Phil' mom is Irish and his Irish grandmom raised him does that make him less Irish. If so go tell that to all those of Irish descent in Boston and New York.
mabbatic Because the cameramen were probably in their 50s, wore tweed jackets and smoked pipes. In the sixties and seventies often the people filming wouldn’t be at all familiar with the dynamics of rock bands.
Hahahahaha yeah, that's what I was thinking while watching - what the hell were they thinking - actually we can't blame the camera guys it would be the fekker in the control room picking which cameras to use.
My goodness - I can remember watching this on TV. As the years have passed I had totally forgotten it - until now ! One of the very best live bands ever .
What a smoking tight band just killer and all the guys in the band are outstanding players. My fave drummer on Earth right here Mr Brian Downey! RIP Philo! Hey Pedro Gracias for posting this rare gem dude you da man! 👍👍
You are welcome. I was lucky enough to see them once in 1980 in Australia.From memory the guitarists were Scott and Snowy White. No disrespect to Snowy who is a fine guitarist, but Scott and Robbo are my favourite combo. Not complaining though, that show rocked.
I was lucky enough to see them on the farewell tour at the Glasgow Apollo, Robbo did a guest slot, one of the best gigs I've ever seen. I was gutted when Phil passed away, he was one of THE great live performers, try finding one like that now.
Cool. I saw them in Sydney Australia at the Capitol Theatre in 1980. The best show that I have ever seen. Still got the ticket stub imgur.com/a/aNZyDDk
Saw this lineup at Hammersmith Apollo in London back in late 70's. Frankly, it was one of the best concerts I had ever seen. No one came close to Thin Lizzy in those days 🎸🤘
@@MrPnew1 Counterpoint ? Where go you hear counterpoint in this song ? I understand the counterpoint concept and I know how to play this song ,so can you pin point when it occurs, is it one instrument or does it involve a second instrument? Please help to lift my musical education .Thank you.
Yes this track is classic Lizzy at it's best and despite there being some other fantastic guitarists over the years, Robertson and Gorham are my favourite pairing.
I saw them a long time ago open for Queen. They blew them off the stage. I went there to see Queen. Legendary show in the Phoenix area. Talked about for decades.
No... I think you all missed his point. WOThrottle, you're right, all the classic rock of the 70s was a huge influence on 90's bands esp the grunge era.
This is so killer. As usual, I instantly wonder if these kinds of performances are actually live, I don’t care for the ones that aren’t. I have to assume this one is, wish we could have seen the amps. I also wondered why I hear Brian Robertson playing wah guitar but he’s not operating one. It must have been an auto-envelope filter effect he had going, sounds amazing.
Would you believe I didnt buy my first Thin Lizzy Record until 2 Months ago at the age of 50? Jailbreak. I have since bought 8 others. Phil had a knack for speaking directly to the listener... At least this listener. Talk about having the so called it factor.
Jason, you have officially reached Legend status now 🤣 Now in case you do not know of him already, you better check another Irish guitar master out - Rory Gallagher
You missed out on a brilliant live band John I’ve seen them at least a dozen times over the 70s and early 80s ,Phil even bought myself and friend a drink .great memories.
Yes Scott is a legend and seems like a nice level headed guy. Cried when his wife told him that Phil had passed away. I think that they were close. So many great docos on Thin Lizzy so we are lucky in that regard
This is GREAT!!! It’s a bit annoying the camera stays on PL during the guitar solos. And the techy walking on stage in the final bars LOL great document!
Yes Phil ticks ✅ all the boxes for sure. Distinctive bass style, brilliant lyricist, vocalist supreme and frontman extraordinaire. Totally the real deal.
@@MrPnew1 Both complemented each other well. Scott was more the anchor...but he had good chops as did Robertson. Peas and carrots taste better together...
Phil Lynott was the Elvis of his generation. A tragically good looking fellow who was Irish and half caste at the same time. This man was the consummate Irish Entertainer and a master of his image. It is too bad it all came to a crashing halt in 1986. I met his mother when I brought flowers to his grave site in Sutton in 1995. And finally saw the reunited Lizzy. Several versions.
Thanks for sharing your memories. Philomena, Phil's Mum, seems like a lovely Lady who loved him more than life itself. It must have been hard for her seeing drugs wrestle life from a larger than life man who was also her son.
You are welcome and glad you enjoyed it. So happy that I got to see them in Australia on 9 Oct 1980 at the Capitol Theatre in Sydney. Unforgettable show
Клёвая группа!! Законодатели стиля и вкуса . У моего старшего брата, в детстве, - было дворовое прозвище, - ,,Стиль", на которое он почему-то обижался. Стиль, - это прежде всего, наличие вкуса, и понимание того, что такое вкус.
These shoes! Had similar ones, when I was 11 in 1975 in a small town in Germany. Back then, bassplayers were supposed to be the shy guys in the back. Phil Lynott not so. Nice dance moves, too.
Phil was like a real life action hero on stage. One of the coolest rock stars ever

Not sure what an action hero could really do in those platform shoes.
I can't live a day without Lizzy. Seriously
And quite frankly, who would want to hey???

Yes sir. Brian Downey is off the chain. Very unique drummer
@@nickfane6729yes sir
70's Rock was the best
Hell yeah and so happy to be a teenager in that era
Definitely.
Absolutely
What a top band!
100%
Phil's platform shoes pulled me right in!! They look bad ass!
What a great band...love those platform heels, too! The 70's were bad ass!!
There are so many fantastic bands from the 70s but to me Thin Lizzy & Blue Oyster Cult are the most criminally underrated ones.
Definitely two of the best
You have great taste in music
Love Lizzy but never saw the fascination with BOC.
I completely agree, love them both
Everything's criminally underrated.
Scott Gorham one of my favorite guitarist ever!
He played some of the tastiest solos ever IMO and was the guitarist who first ignited my love for the instrument when I was a teenager
Scott's still great...he's an excellent player but doesn't get the credit compared to Moore and Robertson. I think he's got an amazing stage presence, 2nd only to Phil...
Oh man no kidding
Some of the coolest riffs🎁💕
@@chrisirving8712 iconic riffs 🎸
Brian Downey , one of most underrated drummers ever. !!!
So solid and dynamic as another here said - one man engine room with Phil playing more like a guitarist as others here pointed out
Phil had awesome phrasing. Live and Dangerous is probably one of the best live albums ever.
I see him as the coach driver , reigning in his wild horses out front. He kept just enough of a hold on them.
Underrated? Not among his peers and the real music press (who largely don't exist anymore ). 👍
Not underrated at all, just not overstated - a class drummer, along with the likes of Ian Paice...
Absolutely. It blows my mind whenever I see a list of drummers, he is left off for the cliche' list that includes Bonham and Peart. Don't get me wrong, they are classic and timeless and deserve their accolades, but Brian Downey is a drummer that makes me stop and really appreciate his playing.

Unbelievable!! Never seen this clip before but OMGosh! What a band of talented musicians!
Yes it's a ripper of a track
One of my favorites bands of all time ..... Long live THIN LIZZY
Robbo and Scott, best combination Thin Lizzy had in my opinion. They had some fabulous guitarists after Robbo left, they made some great music after he left also.... but the groove was never the same.

Eddie G we are a couple of the lucky ones having seem Lizzy live. Me in AU in 1980
Прекрасная группа. Я слушал её в далёком 1975. Они ворвались как комета на небосвод настоящего рока!
Слушал в чуть менее далеком 1985. Но сейчас в целом как бы... Ну примерно как Пёпл конца 60-х.
Phil is just rock n roll without even trying... he's just cool....such a waste of what seemed a beautiful person....🤘🤘🤘
he had it all, but became another lured down the path of the hard lifestyle. Pity he didn't come out the other side like Scott Gorham did. RIP Phil
Looks to me like he was using here...great song tho...not one I'm familiar with, must be from an album I don't have
