[bullat01]

Glad you liked it!

I love this version (even though i haven't heard original version) - solos by Sykes are nothing but amazing!

Thanks for posting this awesome awesome music. The second guitar solo has to be in my fave top five solo's ever. John Sykes is an utterly amazing talent, I wish they would include it in the current Lizzy live set-up. This was previously posted before by someone else and sadly removed by Youtube, I hope this time it stays put. Can't believe only a few hundred people have listened to this online. What a shame this hidden gem continues to go practically un-noticed. RIP Phil & long live Lizzy

Out of all the Sykes/Gorham period this is the best song they did, I think perhaps because it is an 'old;' Lynott song, whatever, Thin Lizzy were/are rock and roll personified and embodied

This is one of the few songs that really make me cry, everytime I listen to it.......again and again........

i know some people give john sykes shit about making lizzy too metal, but they must agree that he is a fucking fantastic guitarist. that 2nd solo is absolutely amazing. this version completely shits all over the original version which was great to start with. heartbreaking to think it all ended so soon after this performance.
