Phil was like a real life action hero on stage. One of the coolest rock stars ever
Shazam
HELL YEA!!!!!!
Why the fuck did I say this lol this is the only Lizzy song I know
Edit: the original comment was from Danny O’Neal, I’m Derrick Oneal and I thought I wrote that first comment when I was drunk or something
The coolest too ever do it.
Not sure what an action hero could really do in those platform shoes.
I can't live a day without Lizzy. Seriously
And quite frankly, who would want to hey???
@@MrPnew1 not me hahaha!
Over a bowl of Count Chockula?
This line up has influenced so many musicians over the years. Just a killer vibe and funk and hard edge that made them completely unique. I will never get tired of listening to Thin Lizzy.
So true, they epitomise the two guitar harmony thing and Phil was the consummate frontman. Downey an amazing timekeeper 🎸 #areyoureadytorock HELL YEAH let’s boogie ❤️
So true
I had a great friend in the Air Force who was definitely influenced by Phil...he was black guy who played a Ric and sang. RIP Darnell
@Brad that's really something 50 years later
@@johnschanzle3593 my bands have been covering Boys are back in town
I saw this lineup open for queen at the University of Maryland in 1976. I've been screaming from the mountaintops about how phenomenal Thin Lizzy was my entire life. So underrated and so under appreciated.
had the good fortune to see them at the famous glasgow apollo
@@collihill I bet that was awesome seeing them so close to their Homeland.
...u r lucky man...there's been a rumour that Thin Lizzy blew up Queen from stage...like AcDc with Bon Scott blew Kiss when they opened concert tour for them...if anyone knows something please share the info ..thanx
@@vukasindimitrijevic6843 Both bands were incredible when I saw them. Other than seeing Pink Floyd live I would probably say it was the best show I've ever seen.
Oh my God that's the two bands that I tell everyone that I regret not seeing in the 70s
Phil is one cool cat, Brian and Scott are such great guitar players, but boy my man Brian on drums is one criminally underrated musician. I love and respect him so much.
Yeah he's a demon on that kit. So tight and locks the whole band in
as good as anyone how good is Opium Trail !...many more Warriors so many, and perfect Groove.
Downey is as underrated as Thin Lizzy. He can step to any other drummer of the era, Bonham and Peart included.
Yes sir. Brian Downey is off the chain. Very unique drummer
@@nickfane6729yes sir
70's Rock was the best
Hell yeah and so happy to be a teenager in that era
Definitely.
Absolutely
What a top band!
100%
There are so many fantastic bands from the 70s but to me Thin Lizzy & Blue Oyster Cult are the most criminally underrated ones.
Definitely two of the best
You have great taste in music
Love Lizzy but never saw the fascination with BOC.
I completely agree, love them both
Everything's criminally underrated.
Brian Downey , one of most underrated drummers ever. !!!
So solid and dynamic as another here said - one man engine room with Phil playing more like a guitarist as others here pointed out
Phil had awesome phrasing. Live and Dangerous is probably one of the best live albums ever.
I see him as the coach driver , reigning in his wild horses out front. He kept just enough of a hold on them.
Underrated? Not among his peers and the real music press (who largely don't exist anymore ). 👍
Not underrated at all, just not overstated - a class drummer, along with the likes of Ian Paice...
Absolutely. It blows my mind whenever I see a list of drummers, he is left off for the cliche' list that includes Bonham and Peart. Don't get me wrong, they are classic and timeless and deserve their accolades, but Brian Downey is a drummer that makes me stop and really appreciate his playing. With Thin Lizzy, he got to play a wide spectrum of of styles all of which he excelled in.
Scott Gorham one of my favorite guitarist ever!
He played some of the tastiest solos ever IMO and was the guitarist who first ignited my love for the instrument when I was a teenager
Scott's still great...he's an excellent player but doesn't get the credit compared to Moore and Robertson. I think he's got an amazing stage presence, 2nd only to Phil...
Oh man no kidding
Some of the coolest riffs🎁💕
@@chrisirving8712 iconic riffs 🎸
Robbo and Scott, best combination Thin Lizzy had in my opinion. They had some fabulous guitarists after Robbo left, they made some great music after he left also.... but the groove was never the same.
Robbo was Thin Lizzy's best guitarist in his prime. I was lucky to see them live with this classic line up.
Saw them with other line ups also... but the classic had the groove.
I couldn't agree more. Sorry Gary :) Yes Robbo and Scott just meshed so well together and that's not taking anything away from all the other guitarists who were all fantastic. Never a big John Sykes fan though I must say. Nothing personal but I think that Phil was scratching a bit in the final years. Just my opinion in saying that though
@@MrPnew1 yeah true. It could be argued that as pure lead guitarist genius then Gary Moore was that absolutely. I just found that his playing was so dominant that it was over powering to the point of jarring in the Lizzy context.
The last album to have that "groove" I keep referring to was, in my opinion, Bad Reputation. Some good stuff followed no doubt. But it lacked something that elevated them above their peers.
Don’t believe a word solo is the best lizzy solo by far. I know others are great but every note in that solo is just perfection
@@magatrone100 Great track and great solo!! Short and to the point!
@@magatrone100 Check out Eric Bells solo at the end of “Hero and the madman” , its something else.
This is THE reason 90s rock was still decent. We all grew up stealing our older brother and sisters records. This still sounds so fresh.
That’s a strange comment, but I guess I get it. Too bad you weren’t around for the real stuff
um, what?
Song was written in 1974 haha what does that even mean
@@tonygiorno689 Exactly. Young whip thinks this is from the 1990s... 🙄
No... I think you all missed his point. WOThrottle, you're right, all the classic rock of the 70s was a huge influence on 90's bands esp the grunge era.
So glad I grew up in this era. Real Music.
You got that! A lot of it was in the top forty, as well.
Phil Lynott was the Elvis of his generation. A tragically good looking fellow who was Irish and half caste at the same time. This man was the consummate Irish Entertainer and a master of his image. It is too bad it all came to a crashing halt in 1986. I met his mother when I brought flowers to his grave site in Sutton in 1995. And finally saw the reunited Lizzy. Several versions.
Thanks for sharing your memories. Philomena, Phil's Mum, seems like a lovely Lady who loved him more than life itself. It must have been hard for her seeing drugs wrestle life from a larger than life man who was also her son.
Saw this lineup at Hammersmith Apollo in London back in late 70's. Frankly, it was one of the best concerts I had ever seen. No one came close to Thin Lizzy in those days 🎸🤘
Eddie G we are a couple of the lucky ones having seem Lizzy live. Me in AU in 1980
Unbelievable!! Never seen this clip before but OMGosh! What a band of talented musicians!
Yes it's a ripper of a track
I was lucky enough to see them on the farewell tour at the Glasgow Apollo, Robbo did a guest slot, one of the best gigs I've ever seen. I was gutted when Phil passed away, he was one of THE great live performers, try finding one like that now.
Cool. I saw them in Sydney Australia at the Capitol Theatre in 1980. The best show that I have ever seen. Still got the ticket stub imgur.com/a/aNZyDDk
I was at same gig, Robbo didn’t want to leave the stage, but Scott told him to get off. Robbo was always better than Scott.
@@MrPnew1 I saw them on that tour in Adelaide, Chinatown album & Snowy White.
One of my favorites bands of all time ..... Long live THIN LIZZY
This is so pure, this is Thin Lizzy with magician Phil Lynott. Heard them first time 1979 i think, when a friend had bought and played the Black Rose album for me. We first listened to "Do anything you want to" ,,man those drums in the beginning , I was hooked.
One day I will go to Dublin and pay my respect for the man , the poet, the musical genius
Only 96 views? For shame! LOVE this!!
Yes this track is classic Lizzy at it's best and despite there being some other fantastic guitarists over the years, Robertson and Gorham are my favourite pairing.
Brian Downey great groove and great ear. He used the hi-hat not just to keep time but made it a key part of his dynamics.
Amazingly solid drummer and yeah, very dynamic sound. A true skin Master
This is so special and unique - 1975 was a great year to be alive
Yep, third year out of High School and so much fantastic music from real musicians
Phil is just rock n roll without even trying... he's just cool....such a waste of what seemed a beautiful person....🤘🤘🤘
he had it all, but became another lured down the path of the hard lifestyle. Pity he didn't come out the other side like Scott Gorham did. RIP Phil
Looks to me like he was using here...great song tho...not one I'm familiar with, must be from an album I don't have
@@Neonleeroy it’s from the nightlife album, maybe my favourite thin lizzy song :)
My goodness - I can remember watching this on TV. As the years have passed I had totally forgotten it - until now ! One of the very best live bands ever .
yes it's visually a great performance and you can overlock that it's not actually live
A stunning performance…so slick and effortless from excellent musicians.
That performance would put Earl Slick to shame :)
This Line-Up Is, Was & Always will be:
"The True Thin Lizzy"!!!
It always about the song!
Yes although John Sykes is a really good guitarist, to me he was never the right fit. Too much of a shredder. Robbo and Scott 4theWin 🎸😎
One of my favorites.
a gem from the vault
No-one strikes shapes like these three! Lovely to see and hear. Thanks for posting this little gem.
Yes it's a track that you do not see very often that's for sure. Glad you enjoyed it
I Love it. Great Song.
Talk about TWIN GUITARS....This band is so influential
Great footage from a great band....
Omg, this is absolutely amazing
just perfect
Thanks!
Phil looks like a real life action figure. One of the best to ever grace rock n roll
Irish bass wielding Super Hero 🎸💥🔥
This is WONDERFUL . THANKS FOR POSTING !!!
you are welcome
Great video, thx 4 the upload) Thin Lizzy
This song go hard 🎉
That bass is beautiful hood taste indeed I just recently started listening. Strangely I heat hendrix and lemmy kilmister all at once I love it
Thank you for posting!
You are welcome and glad you enjoyed it. So happy that I got to see them in Australia on 9 Oct 1980 at the Capitol Theatre in Sydney. Unforgettable show
@@MrPnew1 VERY JEALOUS!
Amazing!
I love this band!
Me too.
Gotta love Thin Lizzy ❤
Definitely The Coolest Irishman and Coolest Irish band Ever by a very very long shot.
Yes there's no denying that is there.
Прекрасная группа. Я слушал её в далёком 1975. Они ворвались как комета на небосвод настоящего рока!
Слушал в чуть менее далеком 1985. Но сейчас в целом как бы... Ну примерно как Пёпл конца 60-х.
Would you believe I didnt buy my first Thin Lizzy Record until 2 Months ago at the age of 50? Jailbreak. I have since bought 8 others. Phil had a knack for speaking directly to the listener... At least this listener. Talk about having the so called it factor.
Jason, you have officially reached Legend status now 🤣 Now in case you do not know of him already, you better check another Irish guitar master out - Rory Gallagher
Such a Hidden Gem!
Classic memories❤🔥Rock on
Thin Lizzy was a great rock'n'roll band. They could have gone on to reach much greater heights.
Best music of my lifetime, so missing lizzy
What a gem !! We're miming tonight boys,,cool, skin up lol.
Are you speaking gibberesh bloke?
Pure unadulterated music and melody at its best! 👌
Awesome 🤩
it's marvellous !
Oh god! 😁 What a miracle! Our parents spent their youth to such music! I just can't believe it! 😀
I lived this shit and it was AMAZING :)
Awesome!
Love the fuzzy lights and set design it's always awesome watching Phil Lynott and Thin Lizzy Era performances like this
Totally blows me away even to this day 💕
Saw this lineup in Ludwigshafen back in '76 w/ Robin Trower !!
Cool 😎 Anyone that got to see Lizzy were very fortunate 🎸🙏 Me only once in Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
Phil's platforms are wicked! 😀
What a rock star he was
I don’t remember this song but glad I stumbled upon it. This is definitely from the early days of the band.
This track from their fourth record Nighlife
Wow I love this song.
We all do :)
These were good times in West Hampstead. Never heard that amazing track until now.
The Classic Lineup. This was perfection. Thanks for posting.
One of the best bands no doubt…
Fuck yes! Seriously underrated LIzzy song, THAT GROOVE! Phil with a Rick into the bargain and all!
NEIL, I ALSO SAW THIN LIZZY AS THE OPENING ACT FOR QUEEN IN 1976... AND I'M SURE YOU REMEMBER THAT THEY ALMOST STOLE THE SHOW... WHAT A GREAT☘️BAND 👍
Awesome Patrick, yes Queen are great obviously but Thin Lizzy is amazing 🤩
The classic line up 🤘🤘🎸🎤🍻
Oh yeah, the best IMO 🎸🎸
@@MrPnew1 👍🍺
Why is the camera always on he wrong guy for the guitar solos?
Yeah that's damned annoying when they do that isn't it
mabbatic Because the cameramen were probably in their 50s, wore tweed jackets and smoked pipes. In the sixties and seventies often the people filming wouldn’t be at all familiar with the dynamics of rock bands.
cameramen in the 70s didnt have a clue....
Because concert videos are produced by satan
Hahahahaha yeah, that's what I was thinking while watching - what the hell were they thinking - actually we can't blame the camera guys it would be the fekker in the control room picking which cameras to use.
Very cool song
He has a beautiful tone I love hearing him sing soft and cool 😎
Yes Phil ticks ✅ all the boxes for sure. Distinctive bass style, brilliant lyricist, vocalist supreme and frontman extraordinaire. Totally the real deal.
Scott was the best guitarist in thin lizzy by far!!!
Yes I loved Scott's playing but I loved them all. For my taste though, Scott and Robbo were the best combination but it's just personal preference :)
@@MrPnew1 Both complemented each other well. Scott was more the anchor...but he had good chops as did Robertson. Peas and carrots taste better together...
Thats the way ya do it!💥
you play your guitar on the MTV 🤣
My first live concert Thin Lizzie, Slade and Aerosmith. I still haven't recovered!
Awesome concert that one
Одна из любимейших моих групп! Супер!
Fantastic band wish I could have seen them in concert
me too.
Sorry guys I was lucky enough to see them once in Sydney Australia in 1980. MAGIC
You missed out on a brilliant live band John I’ve seen them at least a dozen times over the 70s and early 80s ,Phil even bought myself and friend a drink .great memories.
What a band,this song is tight
Like Tuco from Breaking Bad would say “Tight, tight, tight”
Pretty cool!!!
Song says so much. 🌹
Grande Phill ese bajo especial esa voz tan bell@ 🌬️🏞️
Scott was cool as flip.....still is ....just a perfect group with this line up....greatest time for rock...
Yes Scott is a legend and seems like a nice level headed guy. Cried when his wife told him that Phil had passed away. I think that they were close. So many great docos on Thin Lizzy so we are lucky in that regard
PERDI AS CONTAS DE QTAS VEZES EU VI ESSE CLIP ... BOM DEMAIS THIN LIZZY‼️
The coolest of the cool. Thin Lizzy is outstanding!!! RIP Phil.
So true
That was the era when the musicians had to have Real Talent. Thin Lizzy ❤❤
ain’t that the truth 🎸
Best Lizzy lineup by far
What a band !
Aren’t they just 🎸❤️
What a great song I love lizzy man they were damn cool
For sure, way cool
´love the static magic on high heals/plateu, and i believe in it.
They were pure Rock n Roll.
They should have been huge ❤️🔥💕💕💕
They should have been but a series of unfortunate circumstances on their American tour/s put the kybosh on that
My favourite band robbo has always been a good guitarist even in motorhead!
Я так понимаю играют живьём? Шикарно!!! Super!
Qué pedazo de banda y eclectica,si,Los Lizzy fueron grandes
How good is this ..wow what a line up
Hell yeah. All of the Thin Lizzy guitarists are great, But Scott and Brian are my favourite pairing for sure. Magic connection musically ❤
Greatest story teller in rock
Yeah Phil was one of a kind for sure
Hell yeah!
Seeing Phil playing a Rickenbacker is like seeing Brian Setzer playing a Strat.
Yes but it still looks great on him.
@@stephenclarke4675 True, I think any bass would've looked good on Phil.
Best lineup.
Love it 🇸🇪🤘🌹
Yes
Absolutely
The best
The perfect representative of 1970's R&R
Just fucking brilliant
