My uncle had me listening to Lizzy since i was 3, im now 22 and This song will always be in my top 3 favourite songs! In my opinion this is the best Lizzy song! Always makes me bloody happy when i listen to it!

Early 74, obviously.

It wasn't pushed by the label. I bought the 7" vinyl when it came out - but I had to order it. This was recorded when Moore worked with Lizzy Jan-Apr '74, after Eric Bell checked out in Jan 74. It had a reworking of 'Buffalo Gal' from 'Shades of a Blue Orphanage' as a B side.
I also had the treat of seeing Moore play with Lizzy at London's Roundhouse in early '73. I'd seen him before, with both Skid Row and his own trio, so I knew what to expect. He was rather good. RIP Gary.

And this was not a hit? I sometimes question rock radio. This song reeks of hit, of classic rock, of great musicianship. I probably will never know why. I am just glad I found it when I did. Despite Phil Lynott's great rock vocals -- the lead guitar sustaining notes on this gives me goosebumps. RIP Gary Moore -- you were a genius -- especially on this one. Damn, I smile and sweat just listening to it.

This kicks ass! Philo had such a great voice. You can hear the diversity from songs like this to "Try a Little Harder" to a hit song like "Cowboy Song." Sorry folks. he was the best rocker ever, problems all aside.

I actually didn't get into Thin Lizzy until 1989(wait late, I know). But this song brings back memories of the time when I discovered this band.

Great memories.......listening to Thin Lizzy brings back a time and era that was magic. I had forgotten about this song, but since Gary's passing I've been revisiting some old stuff and it's still great. Thin Lizzy will always one of Ireland's greatest exports.
