@IrishFuzzySpartan Exactly... this is an amazing band. The Boys Are Back in Town, while being good, isn't even close to being one of their best songs!
* Downey & Lynott cut a demon drum & bass team here. They're as tight as an ant's arsehole (they'd be tight wouldn't they?).
* For me it's Bell's best solo he did. Great slide part too.
* Lynott's lyrics are so ahead of the time. 1973!!!! Sounds like he's singing about today. The line "cruel will be the vengeance, so savage is the deed that's done" is kinda telling it how it is now. Creeeeepy...
I love eric's solo with this song! Ever!!

Football analogy. Lynott and downey are like Xavi and iniesta. Each one knows where the other is.
