Phil is the greatest front man ever.. He's the reason I picked up the bass.. His bass playing doesn't get the credit it should.. Nor does he.. He was amazing.
Only 36 years old... criminal. I got to see Thin Lizzy a couple of times when they opened for Queen. That chrome pick guard nearly blinded me! They were awesome.
The man was a incredible talent, Bob Dylan called him a genius and it was true, he wrote some of the best Rock songs of all time, miss you Phil, your live shows were the best!!
Phil Lynott has got this kind of charisma few men got. Another one is Bon Scott. Sadly both passed away but watch them live and alive on YT it still a pleasure.
@@maryellenyarusso7029 agreed. Even though I think Bono lives up to his pseudonym. Bruce, on the other hand........complete opposite. Calculated every move. We tend to forget that Bruce was trying to get out of that stigma that held Asian men at higher standards than others at the time in terms of natural abilities. And also used the Oriental "mystique" to his utmost advantage in regards to just about everything. We ate it up. "Be water, my friend.....". And rightly so. Bruce's timing was almost impeccable. He came at a time where nothing like this had been done before. And if it had it had not been seen anywhere in regards to American audiences. Kung Fu the TV show, was pretty much the only outlet to see these techniques on a weekly basis. And of course, the obligatory martial arts schools pop up everywhere. And let's just say everyone took advantage. It's not just white people that bought into the hustle. If you don't think every Asian guy tried to start a martial arts academy when the craze was going, and didn't use his ethnic background as a springboard for such purpose? Well oh, you would definitely be wrong as well. no one expected it to turn out the way it did. Media didn't help. And filmmakers at the time didn't help either. I'm not even just talking about bruceploitation films. As much as these films influenced a whole slew of filmmakers, it also filled a void that is still somewhat open to this day. Bruce was invincible. No doubt in my mind. We had a real life Superman in our midst. we did absolutely nothing to preserve his legacy aside from cheap cassian's. yeah I know. Bruceploitation films were horrible. But I'm going to tell you what. If they weren't around, and I mean this sincerely because I've done the research, how we trained in Combat sports and how we approach it would be completely different. It would take me a few days to blather on, and I'd like to think that people would understand. I guess it just boils down to this, at least for me...... Bruce came and went the moment in the peak of his abilities, he died and left us with a mystery that we will never be able to solve. That in and of itself is very hard to swallow for those that knew him or were around him. But everyone who idolize them such as myself, and some of my closest friends, you understand that Bruce was one thing that all of us were. He was a human being. Human beings are not infallible. Human beings are not the strongest mammal. Human beings are not the smartest mammal. Human beings are extremely emotional. Human beings are selfish, xenophobic, racist, agoraphobic, and a million other things to project into an evening that would be a subject of a video in and of itself. Bruce Lee was a man. A man capable of failure. A man capable of showing us that we need to strive to be different but to get truth from these differences. We need to get our egos in check and out of the f****** way. They are our biggest roadblock. No matter how humble one comes across, they definitely we're bawling like a baby at some point within the last 3 days. some people channel this differently. Some people channel it through achieving goals. Other people channel it through physical feats and pushing boundaries. Bruce did that his physique alone was something that most bodybuilders could not fathom to obtain. will be the enigma that push us through the next two hundred years in regards to the ego, personality, racism, xenophobia, and so on and so forth. Because I'm going to say this right now too. A lot of people like to go off on other people to "feel better" about themselves. And guess what? Problem still remains.........Tune in next week.....
Lynott the Legend lives on ,i had the great pleasure of meeting him 1983 he was really cool and had plenty of time for me and my brothers and mates when we got backstage after a gig in Cardiff Wales ,true star
Really need to get a campaign to get Dublin airport named after him. Belfast have the George Best airport, Liverpool have John Lennon airport. How cool would it be to have the airport named Phil Lynott International airport here in Dublin ? Before any politicians get the idea of naming it after one of their own.
@@zebbleganubi723 I saw Rory live in October of 87 at Hammersmith Odeon also Phil and Thin Lizzy played in a Pub come club in the 70s the piper Inn in Clonmel I have done a few gigs there when you are on the stage you stand over Plexiglass with a 30-foot drop under you its cool it's from the old Clonmel wall were over 2 thousand of Cromwell's men were Killed by Hugh Dubh O’Neill, also Clonmel makes Bulmers Cider now for my next book LOL.
@@shayreno1461 Any live version. The one they played part of on here is a good place to start (I don't know how to link vids or I would sorry). From what I've been told 'Lizzy is one of those bands that you can't fully capture how great they were/are on record. They are very much like The Who, Van Halen and Pearl Jam in that manner.
@@shayreno1461 Just UA-cam "Thin Lizzy Live", you won't be short of quality performance. e.g. Maybe try "Sidney Oprah House" 🤷♂️ ? Though there's just so much stuff. Guess could use your filters to search for most popular, if ya wanna go that kinda route ? Explore Thin Lizzy. And also, check out Phil Lynott Solo stuff, especially "Old Town". Dublin Town in the 80's ! And the charisma that exuded from Philo and how the public loved him (Philo was soo... loved around town) is well highlighted in that "Old Town" video. Philo was a Class-Act 🤘✌ ☘🇮🇪☘ .
I can just imagine what he would have created, Phil could obviously write any style of music looking at his solo albums, he would have ben up there with Lennon and Macca ,well he was always was to me!
It's so sad that this gentle and talented man died the age he did and that he didn't deserve the way he went...but what a bloke after all the adversety he and his MA would of gone through for him to become famous and successful and dearly loved only goes to show the character of Phil...🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸
That was hard to watch. I'm sat here trying to hold the tears back. To hear him talking about working on a new album he was so full of energy, so eager to make new music, but then we lost him on 04 January 1986. That was a time I will always remember. I saw Thin Lizzy 3 times and Phil Lynott with Gary Moore at the Manchester Apollo when they played Out in the Fields and Parisienne Walkways together. I hope Philomena gave him a clip round the ear for breaking her heart when we lost him now they are back together.
You were very fortunate to see this Genius live. I live in Fresno, California and they played here twice-1977 (Queen was the headliner but Freddie got sick so Lizzy played a full set) and 1979- supporting Journey right before Gary Moore walked off and quit). I was not yet a fan as I was born in '73. Thin Lizzy will always be my favorite band.
Was there too mate,,absolutely electric , thinking possibly it was the re start of something ,,but not to be eh ? happy memories,,miss those days sooo much
@@Sandylaner63 Back together with Brian Downey and Scott Gorham, the line-up that recorded my favourite Thin Lizzy album, Black Rose! As you say, happy memories and I also miss those days. A time machine would be nice about now.
0:22 for anyone who don't know what he said: Ola Uteligger; which is the artist Hans Per Rotmo that went by Ola Uteligger, he said it correctly, but with an accent, I am native. Ola is a Norwegian male name uteligger is consists of two words ute( out/outside + ligger= laying, so outside laying person, but the true translation is a homeless person, but the Norwegian word specifies they lay outside.
Phil Lynott a legend in rock music a man icon who I was priveliged to have met several times and attended his funeral good memories but sad at what happened to him such a charismatic man may he rip
I'm 58 years old and still play Lizzy every week. I had the pleasure of seeing them in my home town, Newcastle upon Tyne on numerous occasions at the Mayfair and City Hall and still think Phil was the best frontman and bassist rock music. Freddy was too theatrical, Phil however just got on with it!!!
Another great that is not known much anymore . This man was real On the music scene He lived life as he wanted and music was his calling.The response was pure brilliant artistry ,whiskey in jarvoer is a masterpiece in the band thin Lizzy possession . Great band and frontman
Saw lizzy many times no more bands like this anymore great live band rock the place out every time sad loss phil great front man rip keep them rocking up there 👍
When I was very young and first saw a picture of Thin Lizzy, I assumed that Phil was a Yank. (I'm a Yank) I'd never seen a black Irishman before. Regardless of were his ancestors are from, the man wrote and preformed in such a way that I will always admire his talent and skill. 💐🙏REST IN PEACE PHIL🙏💐
I was blessed to see him live in Birmingham, Alabama in 1978 (I believe) or 79. They were the front band before Ted Nugent. After Thin Lizzy's set, I don't know why Nugent even came out. I've been playing bass for 45 years and Phil was and is one of my favorites.
I have a childhood memory of listening to the boys are back in town in my dads car as we went to a Fourth of July parade . Also I saw the band the darkness at toads place in new haven Connecticut and the were playing the boys are back in town so f ing LOUD before the show . I was like 😫
Phil rules for evermore and all-time!! Number One on the checklist when I first visited Ireland was to visit his grave as well as the statue: both were awesome experiences for me. I will forever be in debt to this man for his body of work that has uplifted my soul and rocked my socks off for decades!
one of my favorite bands. their cover of whisky in a jar was amazing and that put me onto metallica's version. and thats why i like metallica yeah my favorite band is metallica.
As a guitarist I never thought I'd look up to a bass player lmao, knew of Lizzy but never gave there other tunes a shot, wow what I've been missing , Phil was so gifted and cool Edit, I bought myself a cheap beginners bass, thank you Phil, such a fun instrument anyone with the attitude of bass isn't cool is wrong
@@brazenlilhussy5975 killer on the loose, Chinatown, fair few but I'm a builders labourer so I don't have much time at night to play guitar and bass without falling asleep lmao
@@nathanadnitt That's great man. Keep at it. I'm on a massive Phil Lynott kick today. Just watched a great documentary RTE did about Philo last year with his family members and most of the band called "songs for while I'm away"..some really good stuff on there I hadn't seen! That's of course if the builders give you a break! 😂 I know your pain brother! Slainte.
guitar is edgy cool, bass is smooth cool, keys/piano is sophisticated cool, and drums are fucking badass. Keep up the bass, groovy basslines never stop being fun.

Phil is the greatest front man ever.. He's the reason I picked up the bass.. His bass playing doesn't get the credit it should.. Nor does he.. He was amazing.
True
nor do thin lizzy anymore
He's not the greatest Frontman ever... That is Mick Jagger....
@@rickybrowne937 No, in a million years. The one and only is Phil. Jagger is a walking zombie.
Who’s overstayed his welcome.
Definitely up there, but Freddie Mercury is the best front man ever
This guy oozes swagger, just absolutely fantastic fella. No one was like him, such a shame what happened to him.
What a Man, a Legend! One and only! Brilliant ❤
Only 36 years old... criminal. I got to see Thin Lizzy a couple of times when they opened for Queen. That chrome pick guard nearly blinded me! They were awesome.
I saw Lizzy for the first and only time open for Queen in Chicago in the late '70's and Lizzy "blew them off the stage."
There never was, and will never, ever be another Philip Parris Lynott.
The Rocker...
Phil will never be forgotten. He was one in a million. RIP
He was a god send, still my favourite band after 25 yrs of listening to music 🎼
What a treat this video of a BEAUTIFUL Man . Gone.. NEVER forgotten!!
I've visited his grave in Howth, met his mum... legend. total legend.
I am in bits watching this. Thin Lizzy are number 1, and no one can compete.
Lemmy as usual knows what's important..
Miss you Phil, miss you Lemmy.
2 giants.

That's awesome.
Right on sweetheart!
I'm norwegian, too. Who the f@ck is "Ola Uteligger"? Never heard of her.
Update: Found it. The economy-version of Øystein Sunde, & he was on the same show as Phil. That's why he was told to mention it. Pretty lame stuff.
Så enig! 😂 Dårlig gjort av Dyrhaug!

Phil was really one of a kind.
To me he was as much a story teller as he was a singer and a musician.
Not in any way underrated.
Rip great Phil 😘
RIP Phil.
Awesome!!!
I’ve been angry at Phil for a long time over his drug abuse and letting his life end over it, but I’ll forever love him so dearly ❤️
Heroin is a evil drug that kill phil.
Rest in Peace Phil Lynott
one of my favorite bands.
their cover of whisky in a jar was amazing and that put me onto metallica's version. and thats why i like metallica
yeah my favorite band is metallica.
Legend full stop....jus sad how d music industry destroys such talent...love forever philo.xxxx
oh, please...... dont get it twisted, he destroyed himself, 100% . childish to blame addiction on others
Had some great songs.they will still be played long after I’m gone.
It would be respectful if people who want to reply. To everything would hold off so that others would have a chance
What a loss 💕💕
This was when these guys could play without gadgets true performers
the moments with Gary got to me the most

You couldn't handle half his coolness... ❄
