Formed in Dublin, 1969; Thin Lizzy are heralded as one of the finest hard rock bands to ever grace stages around the word. Led by lead bassist and vocalist Phil Lynott and famed for their incendiary live shows; Thin Lizzy are responsible for hits such as 'Whiskey in the Jar', 'The Boys are Back in Town', 'Jailbreak', 'Dancing in the Moonlight' and 'Cowboy Song'.

Among drummers, Downey is a legend.
Agree, in one of my bands we have had 4 really good drummers and all of them have struggled with some of the Thin Lizzys tracks we do...Emearlad being one them!
U2 can only ever dream about being this good. Thin Lizzy are By far the greatest band to come out of Ireland. RIP Phil you will never be forgotten.
No need to compare two excellents bands :)
Btw Bono's voice has waaaay more possibilites than Phil Lynott's, when it comes to guitar and rhythmic though...
@@monstermagnet3150 Phil way more inventive musically.
Oui,c est vrai.
Avec les POGUES aussi !
@@didiervidry7687 BOOMTOWN RATS/THE UNDERTONES
@@CB-xr1eg oui.
I saw the undertones with the outcasts in a french festival in november 2018.
One of the greatest frontman in the Rock 'n Roll history, without doubt! Phil Lynott was fantastic!
Tbh one of those singers and bands that's a bit better than or about as good as you'd expect, considering. Good singing timbres Lynott.
Phil was and is a rock legend👍
He is, he is the man who made me want to perfom and be a frontman in a band! One of my idols.
RIP Phil Lynott (August 20, 1949 - January 4, 1986), aged 36
You will be remembered as a legend.
He's immortalised in these videos, ageless. He was only 36 when he died. He'd be about 72 years old now. Amazing story tellingly skills. A wonderful musician, lyricist and singer. Still a little in love with him.
I remember seeing Phil on stage in Belfast with Gary Moore just months before he (Phil) died, He had so much charisma he had the audience eating out of his hand. We're all still in love with him!
yea there was a documentary about thin lizzy yesterday and old band mates on bbc four ex girlfriend and his ex wife and the two grown-up daughters talking what there could remember think about 73 age he would have been now
Sadly my generation didn't get to see Thin Lizzy in their golden days, I dream of visiting Ireland and seeing everything Philip ever saw. I know you are special and I feel your music with my heart.
My dad has thin lizzy live at the bbc on double green vinyl he saw them at least 6 times
Daamn! This is what a rockstar really looks like.
Every now and then you need a dose of Thin Lizzy, just to remind you of how great this band were. Absolutely relentless rock that doesn't stop to draw breath like in this track and 'Killer on the loose' are essential listening.
100%
Killer on the loose wasn't the least bit clever or cool. Lizzy displayed intense insensitivity releasing that song when they did in 1980, when the Yorkshire ripper murders were ongoing. They obviously didn't think about the victims families and what they were going through.
CANT AGREE MORE ON THAT ONE FUKIN AWSOME 💪💥💯😎🤘
You mean all the time.
@@stephenroche5107 Yeah, ok I'll give you that one😁
Rip Phil absolute legend. Great band
One of the greatest live bands of all time, whatever the line up
Phil is essential! :)
The greatest!just saying!
Not without Phil. RIP
Yes, that is it, the band was, like the who, a lot of hard work and heaps of talent and charisma
The more I listen to them the better they get, one of the greatest indeed.
R.I.P Phil , A great musician & A wonderful band.🎸♥️✌🏻
All excellent musicians and that's a compliment to Phil for sourcing the best!
Great great band and Brian Downey is an absolutely awesome drummer. He is the heartbeat of this fabulous band.
Brian Downey is a underrated monster on drums!
So many songs he alone is the hard working labour champion ♥
but also with such timing and perfection.
Falling off the edge of the world to me is a benchmarks of insane
progressive groovy bass along with matching drumwork...damn,
it make me all exhausted after it throwing me between the walls (8 ○
Only song i can put beside it is Opium Trail \m/
Brian Downey in bad reputation is an amazing performance.
Amazing drums. Love it
You must play the drums? The guy is!!!! Different class
@@stewbeattie4316 Hi, thx for the assumption, but no i dont play anything im afraid, my teen giutar dreams went down the drain due to several reasons and my drumset i swapped for a moped was banned from home, then my mates appartment and finally another mates parents house....
.
.
so here i am, a lost rockstar with a tear in my eyes.
Heck i dont even know the correct words for diffrent technics etc, and i hate it :)
but i try my own 'explanations' so atleasat i know what i mean, and if anyone else do im happy. 🤭✌
Cheers all true rockers 🧡
Brian - an amazing drummer and a Gentleman 🥁😍
もうね、ドラムがたまりません♪♪♪♪♪♪
Possibly the best intro to a rock song ever. The first 15 seconds.....pure class!
Also the best ending to a rock song.
Agreed! I remember being like 8 years old and there used to be an ad on TV for one of those Greatest Rock Hits CD collections, and they played that descending twin guitar part and I just loved the sound of it and thought it was the coolest thing ever. Here I am around 30 years later still listening to it.
35
Oh and the drumming is massive here :):)
Wasn't it always?
Kills me all day..
So intense from start to finish, its like a rollercoaster rock'n'roll ride! Great drumming, as always by Brian Downey! 👍🤘
You know what? Those drums are brilliant, Downey at his peak, was always very underrated drummer
The greatest rock band to ever come out of Ireland - simply marvelous!
U2
ahh Taste?
One of the greatest the world has seen.
Maybe Stiff Little Fingers
Out of anywhere.
Powerhouse drumming! 👍👍
This band will never ever be replaced simple
Thats a fact John.. Phil would be 70 today...Think what he still do today and torrow..
I’m only 22 but funnily enough my dad got me into Thin Lizzy when I was about 15, the boys are back in town and Chinatown will always remind me of how I was bought up with such amazing music. Timeless classic
I’m 14 currently but the same thing happened to me but when I was about 5 my dad had me listening to cowboy song and Chinatown and dancing in the moonlight etc but I agree they are a timeless classic
Heard this in the car this morning, played it about 16 times on UA-cam today and it's only 7 o'clock 💥💥
Всю жизнь сижу на музыке как наркотик от Тощей Лизы , мне уже почти 60 лет , живу в Беларуси , Могилёв . Много лет хотел их увидеть живыми , жаль уходят великие ..
Phil's amazes me every time i hear him! Miss you,Phil
'Emerald' and 'Chinatown', for my money the two best Thin Lizzy tracks ever and the two best Rock Tracks EVER!!
Chinatown is one of my favourite Lizzy albums. Very bluesy.
I love this album so much. Especially trucks ; having a good time, sweetheart, Chinatown ...
Hit me with that drum, Brian. Hit me as HARD AS YOU CAN.
Greatest no doubt from Ireland , my fave band 🎶
Two guitars + bass/vocal + drums ... perfect! - Bronco.
excellent drumming!
What a great Song. You can identify Scott's Solo immediately under a Million Solos .
My 6 brothers and said it the very first time that we got to see Thin Lizzy & Rory Gallagher play live in the very early days and followed both for the remaining years, that we will never get to see more brilliant rocking bands then Thin Lizzy & Rory Gallagher and we have been proven completely correct, wat a most stunning great play Snowy was/is, Thin Lizzy was the perfect fit for his playing. Because of the advice that Phil gave, I never wet back to China Town, a dangerous place, fighting women down there.
brian downey rock's most underrated drummer
Not by people like you and me who know better ❤
Yes.
Agree
His patterns are superb, so few drummers add anything significant to the songs but he does. Deserves a writing credit.
Great drumming for sure 💎🥁🥁
This Song Is very powerful. Phil Is a real rocker 🤘
This gem of a video is unavailable in the US and I had to make myself German to see it lol
hell of an intro!! the lil solo and then drums....awesome
Go on boys, give it some! Keep rockin Phil 👍❤️🇬🇧
A great bunch of lads!
NOT A RACIST!!!
Look at them there 🤣🤣🤣 Brilliant !!
Probably their best song for me....but they had so many R.I.P.🎸🎤🥁🎹🎼🎸
Anyone who thumbed this down should be smacked in the mouth and have their internet taken away. One of their best songs, absolutely magnificent. That guitar solo at the end will melt your face off. Rock on!
Too true mate.take care out there.
that drum intro gets me everytime.
Metoo...
Me too .. I love it and hate it at the same time, respect it above all
Yeah, he could really play. The drummer in my band from a few years ago idolised him
I agree. A truly brilliant band and Downey was a titanic drummer!
Brian Downey is the star here!
this is probably the most underrated song i was thinking it would have more views
Snowy white class guitar 🎸 in this
Great band and awesome song. Rest in Power Phill!!!
simply the best front man
Bloody beautiful !:)
Bloody right!!!🤘🏼
masterpiece
The true rock n roll
Charismatic.. Unique... Phil Lynott was everything.. A true rock star! Miss him even if i never saw him.
Phil Lynette Legend RIP. Such a great track from this wonderful band!
"In Chinatown , you better look around "
most awesome rock groove of all time
Je suis désolé quoi que
Clairement l'un des meilleurs !
My all time fave band,their live shows were and still are the best for me ever.😊
Wow!!! Brian Downey really rocks! Probably one of the best rock groups ever. Phil's bass lines are just amazing-
B.D. kills me. Everytime..
What a great, unique voice Phil had.
Far out! Awesome song. Thank you ❤
drums are immense on this...Lizzy knew how to recruit a good guitarist
A masterpiece
Classic song by a classic band...true rock🎸🎸🎸
The Best Band Ever!!!
Probebly right..
Interesting name for someone from Poland. Ancestry from Russia/Belarus? :) And yes, Thin Lizzy were one of the best if not the best rock band of all time, imo.
Jeśli nie to jednym z najlepszych. Inspiracją dla wielu znakomitych zespołów. Fenomenalni artyści z Philem na czele.
Wow that was so good! That's so good!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍
I always loved this album, such a great atmosphere, lovely Les Paul sounds, just hearing this takes me right back to the moment my dad first played it for me, so memories are strongly entrenched along with the stunning music. It's a bit overwhelming actually ..
Such a GREAT song..Downey is such a musical player...snowy whites solo is great..
Lucky to have watched on the Chinatown tour.
Such great riffs. Why wasn't this on my suggestion list.
This is my favourite Thin Lizzy song. If I could describe it in one word the word would be thrilling.
That guitar rift makes my back hair stand truly talented.
seriously underrated album, perhaps because of the glitzier and more polished production unusual for the band but that's part of why I like it - really has a "flashy decadent neon lit 1980s crime movie" feel to it
Thin Lizzy @ the Top of their Game ,,, Brilliant line up , Snowy White on lead guitar , saw them at Sheffield City Hall with this line up .... it blew my mind .
This song Shows how great Brian Downey is as a drummer on this track 👏😊 and the rest of the band of course lol.
...brian downey provided the 50 per cent of their sound...he is rock's most unsung hero,perhaps..!
This is my faovurite Lizzy lineup, I love the balance between Scott Gorham and Snowy White, amazing feel and licks from both of them,
brian robertson and scott gorham... that where the men... and all times with gary... but at the end... TL was amazing all times... miss TL and phil... )-:
Snowy White lead guitar legend replaced Gary Moore another guitar legend. Today's music has not guts anymore! Rock n Roll lives.
highlight of the 70's and early 80's
Just rediscovered thin lizzy, forgot how good they are, they still rock.
40 years old already!!
Astronomic Rock Band !
Brilliant! Nice to see Scott Gorham more in the limelight, he was a mainstay of the band. Brian Downey and Phil amazing as always!
I hardly recognised Gorham with his hair like that! They'd definitely entered the 80's at this point lol
@@bigguscurlyus I loved him with his long 70s hair!
Mr Downies fills are just top class.
THIS IS REAL MUSIC, PLAYED BY REAL MUSICIANS, WITH REAL INSTRUMENTS
All sound can be music babes- in the ears of the beholder
Amén.
Yes, I can see it
Ok boomer
@@Mr_Leo_DS OK ZOOMER, absolute loser generation that boasts absolute nobody's! 2022 looks great mate! Child
Brian DOWNEY the best drummer ever I reckon - just great
Kick alot of them. ..awesome.
Can really see where early Iron Maiden got a lot of their inspiration from!
Maiden can only dream of being this good.
@@mjh5437 legend
@@mjh5437 band are never as good as their Idols🤦🏻♂️
Even Maiden would say that they are way better because these are their Inspiration if you would click on you brain
@@mjh5437 two different bands.
although one could say that Thin Lizzy started doing Metal later on because of bands like Maiden
PVを観られてよかったです!ありがとうございます
One of the best drum tracks...
Je crois qu'on tenait avec thin lizzy la définition du mot " classe" 🤘😈👍
Phil and Brian created Thin Lizzy to be the greatest guitar band on the planet....this track is the pinnacle of that goal
the legends are here! thin Lizzy
~Whenever my friend n me have words ..If i ever look to be winning -he says yeah but i've seen Thin Lizzy 3 times.. ^^
he wins for sure
Hi Richard, Sorry but your friend wins. I have seen them 3 times as well! The first time with the late, great Gary Moore.
Great song....one classic...Up Thin Lizzy!!!!
heavy machine gunner on drums and a wizard on lead guitar,some band
Gerard Fitzgerald Greatest British Rock band ever
Two great solos here from Snowy and from Scott.
@@midnightmover2329 they're Irish bud 😂
Sorry but the Brits sent claiming this group 🤣🤣🤣 totally Irish and capital Ireland too
Thin Lizzy had alot of hit singles compared to most rock bands of the era & my mum used to love them but hated every other hard rock band I listened to - says alot about Phil Lynott's song writing talent & charisma
Rock for moms then?
Rock and roll hall of fame ! that is all.
an old french fan
Great Song.The Guitars blew me away,top musicianship.
The Heist did support for Talk to strangers in slats caple st back in the day I met Mr Downey as as 17 year old Thin Lizzy brought me to life thanks
Best Band Ever🤘🤘🤘💙💙💙💪
One of the greatest bands ever..
Saw them at the Dagenham roundhouse several times back in the day. Gary and Phil’s music will live forever. God rest their talented souls🙏
Greatest in rock and Roll band 🎶 Legends
Snowy White - his brandnew Album is great for those who like Blues! 👍
When I first saw Thin lizzy and this film clip, I loved them in 2018 I still play the original album....Best Band then and best band now
'Chinatown' is Lizzy's most underrated album. Every song a gem except for 'Didn't I?'.
