I've read so many comments on UA-cam that call Lizzy "underrated". Couldn't disagree more. Maybe they weren't as big a commercial success as some of their contemporaries. But that had NOTHING to do with talent. I think it had more to do with circumstances. People will continue to discover Lizzy and ask who these guys were. They were Rockers.
I'm not an Eric Bell fan. Blackmore, Lifeson, Barre and Emmanuel are among my biggest guitar heroes and still provides me with many wonderful guitar moments. But here - in this original version - Eric Bell had a very divine moment. The way he plays The Rocker here is for me the ultimate guitar moment. The riffs and solo and the song as a whole is pure magic. I felt it that way when I bought the record in the 70's, and I still feel it today.
Great video! I've never seen Lynott playing a Rickenbacker.....this is an old 4001 by the look of it, single pickup, I used to have one just like it. Listening to the song well cranked up, it could even have been recorded with the Ric. Used to headbang to this at the local heavy rock disco back in '73.....happy days.
Wow! This is badass! Thank you for creating this. I walked into a random bar last night and they had karaoke going on; so I asked to sing the cowboy song. Ten min. later the DJ said "I don't have that; do you want to do another Thin Lizzy song?" I said "I'm a rocker!" I TURNER THAT PLACE OUT!!! I KISSED A STRANGE WOMAN RIGHT ON THE MOUTH AND SHE SAID I'll DO ANYTHING FOR YOU, CUZ YOU'RE A ROCKER!" Thin Lizzy forever!!!
THANK YOU. What a Great piece of art. wonderful t to hear the full length version. I can't understand why the powers that be keep releasing the edited version of this song on compilation albums? Surely this guitar solo by ERIC BELL is one of rock's finest moments. Peace and love from Scotland
Ya got to love the visual cavalcade of Lizzy guitarists! Eric Bell; Gary Moore; Scott Gorham; Brian Robertson, John Sykes, Snowy White. (and probably a few others)
Friggin excellent job editing man. 1st heard this song on Sirius radio 'Deep Tracks' about 2 weeks ago and they just don't make rock-n-roll like this anymore. Gave me a whole new appreciation for Thin Lizzy. Great job editing this.
Спасибо автору за великолепный ролик!хорошая подборка всех концертов в этой песни!Thin Lizzy тебя слушают в России.Phil Laynot мы тебя незабудем никогда❤ привет из россии🐻✌🤘
Thank you for your efforts on this, it's amazing! Nothing cheesy about it at all, this perfectly expresses the religious experience that is rock-n-roll.* *Paraphrased from a Wayne Coyne interview.
Your stylistic tension inside the montage reminds me of what this other UA-cam'r did with "Apocalypse Now" and THE DOORS-- check it out......... 💥🎯 ua-cam.com/video/agwMwbmMNbk/v-deo.html

Great lyrics. This song is a fucking hymn! The lyrics are true and lynnot fucking represents a rocker how its meant to be. Thin lizzy is awesome! And that solo...
Is this not the very greatest rocking song of all time played by the best rocking band that ever walked upon Gods green earth< I know that it is, so do not try and disagree with me because you be wrong
Eric's solo is one of the best out there....
Would you believe I am 48 . And I have just discovered thin Lizzy . There fuck*in mad...
Often imitated,NEVER duplicated. I think Eric Bells blistering guitar on this is down in history as one of the all time greatest.
Gary Moore kills this guy
His genuine solo is amazing !!!!
Always sounded clean compared to others.
That Strat! Sounds so good!!!
Just heard this for the first time in 2024... it's a fucking INSANE SOLO!! Holy crap!
THE RIFF OF ALL RIFFS!
I still can't believe how good this is. Lizzy are no.1
I can ,its epic.👍
Eric Bell fantastic guitarist up there with Clapton Page and Hendrix
One of rock's best songs with Eric Bell playing out of his skin
one of the most epic guitar solos ive ever heard

But that had NOTHING to do with talent. I think it had more to do with circumstances. People will continue to discover Lizzy and ask who these guys were. They were Rockers.
But the fact that they were not a commercial success is surely due to their being underrated at the time they were alive and gigging ?
Friggin awesome. Rock at it's finest
Eric's guitar intro is one of most badass sounding things ever.
Long live the music and legacy of Philip Lynott, The Rocker!
United fan.
Absolute classic
Still great in 2019. The incredible Phil Lynott lives on ❤
Thanks, all y'all for liking this. It was a kick in the ass to put together.

Deepak Gurung yessssss bbbbRiaaaAnnnN fuCkInGg DoOowNey!!!
Brian Downey on drums is fabulous.
This is the definitive hard rock track. Lynotts lyrics were as good as anyonres..100% real and to the point.
Malo da se prodrmamo!!! Rooookaaaaj!!!! 🤘⚡🎸⚡🤘
Tako, rokeru! 👏👏👏

Fantastic. Well done. My favorite thin lizzy song!
GREATNESS!
Saluting Ireland's greatest.
Yep . rock n roll at its best
and if Saint Bono of Bono says that PL is the daddy of all Irish rock n roll then you better take it as gospel.
:-)

LOVE this song!!! Love and miss Philo
Yeah, Those transitions ARE pretty wicked, especially later in the video when you start getting into those visual effects. . .
Still the best Thin Lizzy video out there.

Incredible work. Such a great song. Way to go.
thanks for uploading the full (1973 Eric Bell guitar) version - it's the best...
AWESOME JOB ON THIS VIDEO DUDE!! It's hard to find good quality old school videos and this was a GREAT IDEA!
The editing is perfectly representative of the era. I was there and it's like a freeeekin psychadelic acid trip!
this is rock n roll.very nice
Great video!
Quite a psychedelic jam!
It's great seeing Gary slippin' and sliddin' with great ease and control. A pro acrobat
Good stuff. Great collage. I was 26 in 1973 - you've got the look and feel of that period down pat 😎😎
Thank you for your efforts on this, it's amazing! Nothing cheesy about it at all, this perfectly expresses the religious experience that is rock-n-roll.* *Paraphrased from a Wayne Coyne interview.
Few bands took a song to this level ~
great job, man...walking the psychedelic memory lane with gary, phil and thin lizzy...
@TheWillie50
This is 100% Eric Bell's solo -- although I'm sure all the other guitarists played this song live at some point in their Lizzy careers.
Love the visuals beginning to end!
Thank you!

Wow man, thank so much for doing this!!! Oh man, speecless I am ...
