yes, yes it just may be so. I'm still waiting for someone to unearth and epic 40-minute version of "Emerald".

Whatever happened to those unearthed Lynott demos and outtakes? I thought a box set was imminent...

thin lizzy not even being considered for the rock and roll HOF means there is no rock and roll HOF.

I was always under the assumption they were in. Arent jackson browne and billy joel in? How is Thin Lizzy not?

no room for thin lizzy or love or war, room for james taylor and RHCP.

RNRHOF is an exercise in tedium.

"Little Girl in Bloom" is such a jam. it seems lazy to compare that song to the groove of The Unforgettable Fire since both bands are Irish but "Little Girl in Bloom" invents that sound, & I'm guessing Bono et. al. knew it well

Oh man, I so envy you just getting into this band... Look forward to tons of jaw-dropping and holy-shitting as you explore their catalog...

Been into Thin Lizzy quite a lot over the last eighteen months or so. . .

Nightlife remains my favorite.

Bad Reputation a close second.

My two favorites for a long time have been "Fighting" and "Johnny the Fox" but there's hardly an album of theirs I don't absolutely love.

That pic was on the cover of Sounds, or maybe NME from 1977 or so. So classic.

I've seen it somewhere before, but it crossed my radar again today and felt it needed to be here.

"Downtown Sundown" is a beautiful tune.

Some bumwads knocked over and seriously damaged the statue of Phil.
