Apologies for only just waking up to a legend but my GOD - I haven't really truly appreciated Phil's genius until now. I haven't had that feeling of being truly taken away by a track for a while - til now...
This is Philip Lynott's eulogy to the "King" of rock & roll, Elvis Aaron Presley. As a young kid growing up I idolised Phil Lynott, he epitomised "cool", he was rebellious, charming, witty and romantic. Sadly his destructive lifestyle resulted in his early death, he is greatly missed.
I started weeping when I heard this. My greatest musical heroes. The great voice the sublime guitar. All I heard was more more more please more. Sadly no more the voice.
u just know that this guy had a heart of gold...but the drugs got him...once you,re on the ride it,s so hard to get off......RIP Phil Lynott........king.
Great story. Aren't moms the best although mine threw out my baseball card collection......they weren't valueable back then.... lol....... she was the best though too. After mom and dad I miss Phil the most. Just imagine what if?
makes me sad when i think of a guy who was killed today on merrion road on southside of dublin. motorcyclist and he was the kind of guy who wouldnt hurt a fly. he worked in the same place as me. may he rest in peace.
check out ode to liberty Phil at his best with Mark Knopler awesome song.

That was likely Knopfler's last attempt at a pompadore! Great track, thanks for posting. Phil was a poet, and a cool one at that.

I've got the Solo in Soho album.
I was a school kid, ill and i asked my old mom to get me a Led Zepplin album while she was out shopping, she came back with Solo in Soho.
What a good mistake she made. it's a great album.
