| | | | Good stuff for sure. Was in a band that would cover "Dancing in the Moonlight" whenever we had a sax player sit in.

I have Jailbreak and Chinatown on vinyl.
My band has covered The Rocker and Bad Reputation a few times. |

I don't know what to attribute the terrible sound of the Jailbreak album to, other than everyone involved being high out of their minds while mixing.
If anyone ever remixed Jailbreak and a few of their other albums I would pay real money for those. |

| | | | What? A successful band out of Ireland that's not U2?
Seriously though, Thin Lizzy rocks.

How that guy could sing those oddball syncopated lyrics while playing completely different rhythms on the bass is something of a marvel to me. Way underrated bass player. One of the greats and a personal hero of mine. |

| | | | Get your 70's rock on, get your yourself a copy of Live and Dangerous. Forget about all of the rumors, it is simply one of the great albums of the 70's!

Phil is the man.
I also have deep respect for the other band members; they were a sum of their parts with a great frontman/singer/songwriter.

I didn't know Phil ever shared a lead vocal.
