It is a shame that he had to take his own life with drugs. If he stuck around a little longer, maybe the younger generation would know the true meaning of music, as opposed to the "rap", "pop", and "beiber" BS that has no heart,no soul, no meaning. THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE. RIP PHIL
Brillant!!!! lol Im of an age that i remember him when he did guest spots with Skid Row at the Top Hat in DunLaoghaire --ahh man you died way too soon God Bless ya
Huy bueno, pero no me regañe señor Muelle! Ya quite lo de "original". Mis disculpas Dr.Rock... yo solo conocia esta y la de Metallica. Sumerce sabe, la ignorancia es atrevida.
Thin Lizzy fue la primer banda en hacer una versión rock, versión que sí ha sido grabada por otras cuantas bandas (Pulp, Metallica, Belle and Sebstian...) pero que para nada es la "versión original". Le recomiendo que escuche las versiones "tradicionales" (como la de The highwaymen) y las versiones Bluegrass (como la de Jerry García).
Ahí está pintado, Whiskey in the jar NO ES ORIGINAL DE THIN LIZZY, es una canción tradicional irlandesa, de esas de bebeta, que viene al parecer del siglo 18. Usted sí que es experto en decir barbaridades. (continúa)

I remember when I heard the news of Phil Lynott's death in January 1986. It was quite saddening. They where my favorite hard rock band.

It's an Irish traditional. They did it as joke while rehearsíng ... then they liked it so much they released it as a single. The rest is history,

I actually never heard this one before the Metallica version. The first one I heard was U2 doing it. So, my opinion would be biased, naturally.

The live one with miminal editing? you can really see these guys play better on that version. Eric Bell really shines.
