makes me laugh when I hear that absolute shit cover version of Whiskey in the jar that Metallica did, I would have thought Thunder&Lightning would have suited them a lot better.
Totally correct. This song makes Dead Kennedy and Necrophagist look like Teletubbies. The solos in this song is a combination of Michael Angelos best solos ever played!
phil made a few bad life choices but the one GOD choice he ever made was to pick up a bass guitar and write incredible lyrics and put it to music with the help of a few good friends (scott,gary,adrian,) the list goes on! ask anyone in the biz, he's the most respected man on the planet, deservedly! aside from maybe greenday, nobody else gets it! tell me i'm wrong!
I saw them in Erlangen Germany in 1982, my ears are still ringing.......no, wait, that's my phone............ haven't heard anything clearly since..... or was it the cannons at the for Those About to rock AC/DC concert the same year, same place....... idk, both were killer shows... and I can still hear the ringing...... or is that the tv?
Best line: "You can keep your lover honey but he'll have to pay the bill." Awesome song. Was fortunate enough to see their second last show in Germany before Lynott's unfortunate death in the new year. Phil was a rock star through and through.
One of their heaviest and meanest tunes. This video version is shorter (by more than a minute) than the album version. John Sykes solo (which is unbelieavable) is sadly taken out here. Non the less, pretty good quality clip. Long live Phil Lynott. Thanx for posting!
This has to be my favourite Thin Lizzy song. As great as the rest of their others are, this will always be the one I'll rock out to. Thin Lizzy are gods of rock. Plain and simple.
not the real recording
