THIN LIZZY (ABO #047)

THINest LIZZY

Thin Lizzy, Thin "fucking" Lizzy!!! Probably the greatest band to have come out of Ireland (don't even start me on how overrated a band U2 is). Phil Lynott, the soul and brains of the band, was not only a golden-voiced leader, he was also a fascinating character, a self-destructive one too as his sad death shows. Born of an Irish mother and a brasilian father, this big brown guy had everything to become a rock star: charisma, talent and skills... Luck wasn't on Thin Lizzy's side though and, if the band is now recognized as one of the great hard rock bands of the 70's, their success never was as big as they deserved... Together with talented guitarists and a faithful drummer, he completed a nearly perfect but way too short career... Here are 35 songs to prove my point! Enjoy THINest (pronounced TIN not FIN) LIZZY!
