One of the best guitar jams in history!!! Gorham & Robertson were my favorite twin guitar attack!!! Not taking anything away from the legend GARY MOORE R.I.P.
Gotta admit I was not familiar with much of Thin Lizzy's music (even though I saw them as a warmup band to Queen back in 1977). Sitting in a coffee shop I caught the Cowboy Song and recognized the guitar and vocalist as distinctly Thin Lizzy. Looked up some lyrics and found this web site. It's a great tune -- agree, it ought to be played more often!
Phil is one of the baddest motherfuckers ever and this may be one of the baddest motherfuckers they ever recorded. You know what I mean if you know what I mean.
The first part of this song with just Phil Lynott talking over that guitar and harmonica is pure heaven. The rest of the song is awesome too. So let's ride out to the old sundown.....
It annoys me that classic rock radio really only plays "The Boys are Back In Town" when I can name so many other songs like Cowboy Song that equal it as great jammin tune.
i bought this album just for the song JAILBREAK when i was kid in 7th grade...very quickly found out the whole damn is jamming...wished i could of had the chance to see em...one of the MOST UNDER-RATED BANDS in rock

If you think this song is good, plug your laptop into your stereo and put it full volume, you will feel like you have just been reborn

@jmmygumbo1002 It seems classic rock radio thinks Jailbreak was the only album Lizzy ever recorded...
