Phil Lynott :ROCK STAR the first real irish rocker he played up the road in Cork in the early 70s the graffitti was everywhere about the band all of Ireland is proud of him and always will be
Happy days. I was in this audience, REALLY! 28th January 1983, The Tube TV show. My Dad worked at Tyne Tees TV and got me backstage passes. Met Phil and the guys, absolute legend!!
Brings back good memories. I was about 6yr old at the time. Long hot summers in the park, with friends playing football until late... :-) If I had a time machine I'd go back for a week
On every song live and recorded song Phils' voice is absolutely flawless. There is little or no difference between the live vocals and the studio...amazing!! and rare.
thin lizzy was great,remember that gary moore was part of the band for a while. best irish band ever...incredible guitars,never heard anything like this still to this day...
It's John Sykes. Thunder and Lightning from 1983 is the only Thin Lizzy Album he played on, well he also sung on the renunion album "One Night Only". He also has an respectable solo-career.
Hey, if you like Phil and Lizzy's music, go to the exibition in Dublin! I've been there during my holidays and I nearly cried when I left it, I learned so much about that wonderful band!!! RIP Phil, long live rock!
excellent perfomance here from thin lizzy. this is great. but i wish they where still together today r.i.p. phil you'll always be in out hearts and our spirits not just with your music but with who you are, you are a rocker.
I think its his tone. I never saw him live. But if you watch the Emerald video--man that proves just how great a bass player/performer he was. The whole band was great regardless of which guitar player was there. I love the Gorham/Robertson lineup, myself.
"Hats off" !!! A brilliant band,sound+song !!! Such,one can't find nowadays !!! Although,some "younger" people,can't "understand" -- THIS IS MUSIC !!! Thank u very much for sharing !!!
Thin Lizzy "Live and Dangerous" is widely known as one of the greatest Live Rock Albums in recording history. Throughout there time together as a band performing live, they were known as the band who put on one of the greatest shows in all of Rock and Roll. I don't know if you play guitar or what bands that you like, but your comment seems to be rather green with envy to me.
De retour de Dublin, Phil est encore présent dans les mémoires et les coeurs..."The boys are back in town" est tout ce que j'aime dans le rock !!! thanx for sharing
Undoubted one of the greatest rock bands of all time. My favourite lineup was with Brian Robertson on guitar, though all the players were great. RIP Phil Lynott & Gary Moore.
coming back from Vegas to California we played this song when we got back in town. bad ass band. way before my generation but has way more of my respect then today music
Saw them Live in Springfield Massachusetts during the Jailbreak tour when they opened for Queen. The Blew The Crowd Away. After seeing Thin Lizzy, Queen was nothing! At least not that night!
The best use of parallel thirds popular music has ever had. Every other hair metal lead guitar melody can be traced back to the guitar parts on this song.
One of the best rock songs ever written. It's so beautirul you can even play it with an acoustic in a slow version and it works. Thes guys were fuckin' brilliant. Hey Phil, RIP, and thanks for the wonderful opening you did for Hawkwind at the Empire in Liverpool back in around '71.
Great band, love them always . . . but did you notice the keyboard player is the only one that looks sober, lol! Reminds me of my bands, thanks for posting :)
Thin Lizzy have a very wide range of tunes, personally I would recommend:cold sweat,hollywood,killer on the loose,waiting for an alibi,dancing in the moonlight,bad reputation,suicide,fighting my way back,emerald,johnny......In no particular order,I could go on,hope you enjoy.One of my biggest regrets in life is that I never saw them live.
Out of all Thin Lizzy's recorded songs this one is definitely the best one. Thanks for posting. We're doing this cover and it gives you such a rush playing it!
I remember back in the 1970s, polls of fans and people working in the music field were asked what rock band gives the best performance playing live on stage? Who got the most votes, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, The Who,... ? It was actually Thin Lizzy who came out on top. Always known as being one of the very best live rock bands.
@@matthew4694 well, that is a well known (admittedly not particularly original, or edifying) figure of speech I apparently chose 9 years ago to express respect for a band that did not seem to me to be held at the same level of esteem by my peers, as I hold them. In short, an opinion, based on my experience. If I have offended you by some percieved slight to Thin Lizzy, I offer my apologies, as that was the opposite of my intent. If , on the other hand, I have merely activated your troll switch, I offer you another well worn cliche......get a life.
@BTBHSOHBOY No mate. If memory serves me correctly (and if not, I'm sure someone else will!) the line up at this time was Phil Lynott, Scott Gorham, John Sykes, Brian Downey & Darren Wharton.....Davie
Phil Lynott :ROCK STAR
the first real irish rocker
he played up the road in Cork in the early 70s the graffitti was everywhere about the band
all of Ireland is proud of him and always will be
I positively loved this band...not to mention I had a major crush on Phil!!! RIP, Phil....I love u man. They don't make music like this anymore. G
Happy days. I was in this audience, REALLY! 28th January 1983, The Tube TV show. My Dad worked at Tyne Tees TV and got me backstage passes. Met Phil and the guys, absolute legend!!
There is nothing like a genuine classic delivered by the person who wrote it....xx
Checkout Phils face, he's really diggin' it, I'm 60 still listen to this
We all miss you Phil- Keep rocking in heaven....
....and THAT is how you play rock n' roll...!!
ABSOLUTELY 🇺🇸
Phil Lynott...still the coolest thing ever to come out of this country.
Brings back good memories. I was about 6yr old at the time. Long hot summers in the park, with friends playing football until late... :-) If I had a time machine I'd go back for a week

Really great performance. Les Paul & JCM800 master volume rule.
It's John Sykes. Thunder and Lightning from 1983 is the only Thin Lizzy Album he played on, well he also sung on the renunion album "One Night Only". He also has an respectable solo-career.
I remember when you could TOUCH your heroes!! .. Great stuff.

One of the Greatest Macho Song.
Legendäre!!!
fucking incredible...rest his dear soul...i miss him...what a star....a real rock and roll star.
John Sykes is a great guitar man!!!
Incredible live performance........Enough said.
i wish i had to grow up with this music way better then music on the radio these days
For some reason . . . One of the coooolest songs ever :D
The best thin lizzy performanse ever seen it when i was 13 now 43 still gives me goose bumps
I think its his tone. I never saw him live. But if you watch the Emerald video--man that proves just how great a bass player/performer he was. The whole band was great regardless of which guitar player was there. I love the Gorham/Robertson lineup, myself.
Long Live Rock N Roll, u Cant get it better than Thin Lizzy. i Just Love Rock n Roll
"Hats off" !!! A brilliant band,sound+song !!! Such,one can't find nowadays !!!
Although,some "younger" people,can't "understand" -- THIS IS MUSIC !!!
Thank u very much for sharing !!!
One of the most under-rated bands of all time - Thin Lizzy!!!
Warm crunchy guitars, thick chunky bass...This is the kind of tone every rock musician should strive for.
great, what a song!!!!!!!

RIP Phil Lynott & Gary Moore.
RIP Gary - truly (in this video) The Boys ARE Back In Town! Just two of you jamming togther now (possibly with others though) Excellent! X
Ive been in the game a long time and seen all the Greats~ But the one that stands out the most is seeing Phil~ Just the Greatest!
coming back from Vegas to California we played this song when we got back in town. bad ass band. way before my generation but has way more of my respect then today music
Saw them Live in Springfield Massachusetts during the Jailbreak tour when they opened for Queen. The Blew The Crowd Away. After seeing Thin Lizzy, Queen was nothing! At least not that night!
thanks for existing Phil Lynott, Rock on!
Still brilliafter all these years amazing
The best use of parallel thirds popular music has ever had. Every other hair metal lead guitar melody can be traced back to the guitar parts on this song.
RIP Gary, may the road rise with you...
D~
Thanks so much for sharing this super video ! ! ! It must be from the mid '70's. Prime Thin Lizzy ! ! !
One of the best rock songs ever written. It's so beautirul you can even play it with an acoustic in a slow version and it works. Thes guys were fuckin' brilliant. Hey Phil, RIP, and thanks for the wonderful opening you did for Hawkwind at the Empire in Liverpool back in around '71.
Yeah great song very understated and important to every Irish boy especially.
It's very difficult to play a bass guitar and sing a song at the same time. Phil is a genius!
That’ll be your little secret 🤣
Yep. The only other guy that can do it is Geddy Lee. Only he plays keyboards at the same time too...... th-cam.com/video/1nvNmNoFIa8/w-d-xo.html
He plays well and sings. Not easy
Urban myth - it isn't if the vocal and bass melodies are similar
Yeah'....I think Geddy Lee would say that, huh?
I need to go back in time so I could have been around to see these guys.
Saw 'em loadsa times in Limerick Savoy, but Philo looked sooo happy here!!!
John Sykes that is,from Whitesnake, Thin Lizzy, Tygers of Pan Tang & ofc solo albums :P
Happy 69th Scott, Thanks for the music.
I'm so happy that this is one of those rock songs about love or a girl,unlike the ones these days .
Saw them at Cambridge last week, still f****ing great. Viv Campbell can realy do it, great double solos from the boys!
I'm sad I wasn't born while Phil was alive to hear them live, I wish I was... :-(
i know that house...with the big fence..phils live sound engineer recorded some of my very first demos in dublin..i LOVE thin lizzy
I wasn't alive then, but this song is the perfect example of being a teenager in the late 50s!
Great band, love them always . . . but did you notice the keyboard player is the only one that looks sober, lol! Reminds me of my bands, thanks for posting :)
Rip to a music icon
Phil lynott... January 4 1986 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Phil for the music!!
i love the way that dude plays bass.....he has a real "strong" hard playing style
He's called Phil Lynott
Boa tarde, essa banda é show top
The quality of this vid is killer. Thanks!
Gee thanks, they were my band!
The best Irish band ever!!! R.I.P.--Phil Lynott who passed away 27 years ago today!!
im 15 and i think they flipping ROCK! :D
@LedZepGuitarman YEAH! 8 years old, hearing this in the car in 1976...WOW! This is why I picked up a guitar!
These boys rock, RIP Phil, gone but not forgotten
Thin Lizzy have a very wide range of tunes, personally I would recommend:cold sweat,hollywood,killer on the loose,waiting for an alibi,dancing in the moonlight,bad reputation,suicide,fighting my way back,emerald,johnny......In no particular order,I could go on,hope you enjoy.One of my biggest regrets in life is that I never saw them live.
R.I.P. Phil Lenott!!!! U Were AWESOME!!!!!
Listening to this song let forget you all troubles and problems
26 years ago today Phill Lynott passed away, we miss ya man hope your selling out cloud 9 tonight in heaven. R.I.P

I get the chills everytime I hear that harmony solo 3:25

Did you see the Band 'The Boys' over in Germany? Great Band!
Out of all Thin Lizzy's recorded songs this one is definitely the best one. Thanks for posting. We're doing this cover and it gives you such a rush playing it!
I'm looking forward to hearing your song about the Olive Garden.
@dudestr5552 It's John Sykes and Scott Gorham. I think that line-up remained unchanged till they finally split in 1983.
RIP Gary, this was one of my favorite tracks ... another great music icon that go's away ... keep the memory alive !!!
One of my favourite songs.
Absolute classic, my all time favourite!!
One of my all time favorites !!

Classic rock the way it's played. Thank you for the post.
Thin Lizzy............class!
Spectacular video. I've never seen this one. Thanks for posting!
I love the twin lead guitarists in this performance, they were great!

March 17, 1951: Happy Birthday to Scott Gorham, guitarist for Thin Lizzy!! ☺
These guys were born to rock!!
AWESOME as always !!!
One of the most underrated bands of all time.
What and where are these ratings of which you speak?

@@treezrok Well said, John. They are indeed under-appreciated.
"Under-appreciated " would indeed have encapsulated my my feelings on the matter more precisely. Have a wonderful day sir!

one of my favorite songs to cover!
Bloody brilliant.
