60 years old and still listening to the greatest live band ever , seen them on at least a dozen times all over Ireland . Me and my friend met Phil in co Donegal and he bought us a drink 🥃
man you're lucky. ireland produced some real good music over the years. went over there a couple of yours ago, the pogues playing in every pub, really enjoyable (wish it hadn't been that expensive)
@@stevevaughn3020 I've had this discussion before Steve, particularly under a video of Climax Blues Band performing "Couldn't get it right". They played the song live twice for Top of the Pops. From Wikipedia; - "Occasionally bands played live, examples in the 1970s being The Four Seasons, the Who, John Otway, Sham 69, Eddie and the Hot Rods, Jimmy James and the Vagabonds, Heavy Metal Kids, Elton John (Song for Guy), Typically Tropical, New Order, and David Bowie (with a recently rediscovered clip of "The Jean Genie" and "'Heroes'"). In 1980, heavy metal band Iron Maiden played live on the show when they refused to mime to their single "Running Free"...."
@@Smudgie Yeh. It was quite weird, they used to make the bands record the backing track and the singer would do the vocals live. If any band members weren't card holders they'd have a resident session player do the part. Something to do with the musicians union or somesuch. I was told that bands used to surreptitiously sneak the original studio recording in to the BBC session. Prolly remembering this all sorts of wrong ! Apologies in advance !
They sometimes had a live vocal over an instrumental backing track. Paul Rodgers has said that this was definitely the case when Free performed 'All Right Now' in 1970, so I presume Phil Lynott did the same on this a few years later.
To me Thin Lizzy is the perfect "hard rock" band. It's loud, mean, and hard, but it will never be miscategorized as heavy metal. It's very hard to really rock without crossing into metal and Thin Lizzy did it perfectly
@@eoinf2004 i can't take yall seriously while i see word underrated in sweet and jethro tull comment section who sold 60 million album "roseline" is one of the most popular roc songs i'm 16 yo and i heard that songs while i wasnt evn into rock n roll but yeah i agree abt the bamd being underra tree d it's just i'm tired of seeing this word in every rock n roll comme t section
cant believe I am 51 and just discovering thin Lizzy beyond "the boys are back in town", I needed something new to discover in this age of crap music, Phil and the whole band are amazing !!!
Such an underrated song. Born at the tail end of the eighties. If I’d have been born 10 or 20 years earlier I could have appreciated thin lizzy just as much as I do now 😄
So good. My favorite period of a favorite band: the Night Life / Fighting years. Great clip! 'Twas bold to open Fighting with a Bob Seger cover. I have yet to learn how Roger Chapman's b/g vocal got on that track. Anyway, this clip just became my favorite version of Rosalie.
Saw them in 1978 on the Live and Dangerous Tour, in the place I was living at, at the time - Freiburg, Germany. Scott Gorham couldn't be there, he was sick. But it was a kick-ass concert none the less!
The RnRHoF is just an American corporate gimmick, full of joke bands and unthreatening artists who happen to have friends in the right places. When you consider that so many great bands from this side of the Atlantic (Thin Lizzy, Free, Jethro Tull, King Crimson) have been overlooked, it says it all. Even great American bands such as Blue Oyster Cult have been ignored; the band say that their former manager had crossed swords in the past with some of the arseholes that run the RnRHoF. Enough said!
@@portcullis5622 Well said my friend. So many great bands that have been overlooked Nazareth Is Bachman Turner overdrive April Wine REO But yet Madonna And other bubble gum acts are in there.
It sickens me that when people think of an Irish rock band, they automatically contemplate u2, no, no, no, there is only one band that came out of Ireland and kicks a$$ and that's THIN LIZZY, end of story.
@@SlumminAngel oh wow, thank you, they sound real good, opinions are opinions, but I still prefer thin lizzy, that's just me, but I still appreciate you sharing that, I'm going to have to look more into Rory. This is why I enjoy UA-cam, you always learn something new.
I'm in the U.S. and I remember seeing a video on the Kenny Everett Show which aired for a short while late night here in the U.S. I remember seeing Thin Lizzy doing Rosalie and this looks it could be the video. Did Kenny Everett air Top of the Pops videos?
Wish I could watch a live performance of the Nightlife album so I can see WHO PLAYS EACH FUCKING SOLO. is it me or do the solos in that album sounds like the same person played them??

Terrific version of the song, love Thin Lizzy - LEGENDS! \m/
Love this version of the song too and l love Thin Lizzy
62 Years old...and a Fan from "Lizzy" since i was a Teenager.Greets from GERMANY 🇩🇪🎸🎤🎼🤟😎
Phil making sure people know they are playing this live by improvising all over the place.
Top man :)
Only Phil's vocal is live.
Top of the pops was never live as far as I know

100%
great tribute to Canadian radio legend Rosalie Trombley, who passed away this week
Marshalls, long hair, white cowboy boots. Rock. Is there more to life? No there isn't.
Brian Robertson! What a solo
@Sid yeah man fantastic. Pity he went off the rails
Along with UFO, so underrated, so good live, glad I got to see em.
Goro and Robo on guitar. Can't beat. This line up was the best IMHO. Live and Dangerous was Thin Lizzy at their peak!
Those were the days, Love Thin Lizzy and Rosalie, fantastic song!
Written and originally performed by Bob Seger.
@@Hellwyck Yeah we know and much better than the original in this case lol!
Love that fantastic song Rosalie 💛💙❤🤎🤍🧡💜💚😍☮😇🙏🕊
This is thin Lizzy saw them 9 times happy days ,the best Lizzy line up by far lynott Robertson, Downey, Gorham .
9? DAMN awesome
Yeah, this is the classic line up, and to me, best dual guitars ever.
Without a doubt 😜
yup!~
Your right the best .
What A great band Thin Lizzy love them...
Lynott! Legend! One of the greatest rockers ever!
Brian downy one of the best unerated drummer too
And underrated is the most overrused word in comments on UA-cam seriously i see that in every rnr song's comments section
@@haitiansouljadex3186 Brian Downey is hugely underrated though - so are all of Thin Lizzy, unfortunately

Bam! - Agreed!
Потрясающий голос! В машине постоянно слушаю THIN LIZZY. Всё что нам осталось...
A brilliant band at the top of their game !
what an amazing front man .... bought live + dangerous with my first pay day .... still listen to it enjoy it like that first day
Wish I'd seen them live. Fantastic band. Guess Phil would be around 73 now. RIP
A PERFECT LIVE PERFORMANCE. It's perfect. sounds perfect. They even look perfect, down to the mirror picgaurd on Phil's bass.
Not live just the vocals are.
cant believe I am 51 and just discovering thin Lizzy beyond "the boys are back in town", I needed something new to discover in this age of crap music, Phil and the whole band are amazing !!!
One of the best rock bands EVER!
THIN LIZZY is the best band to ever touch land! Rest In Peace and Love Phillip!
Such a great band, such a pity Phil isn't still making music today but his legacy will live on forever.
Best 🎆 group 🎶 to ever come out of Ireland 🇮🇪.
Whatta band, voice and song!
What an amazing band, I loved them in the 1970's in high school and they still are relevant.
I love how they used a bit of "Cowboy Song" towards the end there. Awesome!! 🤘🏻
Quite possibly the greatest 4 musicians together in the 70`s, even better than Queen......
the real deal
They are definitely better then queen. phil is a legend!
Bold words but must agree
Lemmy agree
Absolutely far better than queen
What a Fricken awesome band✌✌✌
Love how seamlessly they went into Cowboy Song!!! So smooooooth.
Phil Lynott one of the greatest musicians ever... singer songwriter bassist he could do it all...
Such an underrated song. Born at the tail end of the eighties. If I’d have been born 10 or 20 years earlier I could have appreciated thin lizzy just as much as I do now 😄
I was raised on 70's Rock as a kid in the 1970's. STILL LOVE it ! Especially THIN LIZZY!!
Thanks for posting . I had never seen this before. Phil-nomenal band .🍀
Masters at their game thin lizzy the greatest rockn rollers to grace any stage
Saw them kings hall manchester 78 wow !!! Just a boy
Ireland's finest ♠❤🎸👍RIP PHILO. X
Fantastic. Phil the most charismatic front man I've ever seen.
Great band Thin Lizzy! Love all the classic hard rock bands from the seventies, they can't be beaten!
Phil's vocal on this is live 🤘👍
yeah cause they were real musicians back then and not that bullshit casted autotune one night stands....
A great tune by an even greater band
Great Bob Segar song and a superb cover.
So good. My favorite period of a favorite band: the Night Life / Fighting years. Great clip! 'Twas bold to open Fighting with a Bob Seger cover. I have yet to learn how Roger Chapman's b/g vocal got on that track. Anyway, this clip just became my favorite version of Rosalie.
Actually played live on this show, awesome job guys
One of the BEST BANDS !!!!! ❤💯💫💥💢💯💯💯💯💯💯
Live performance on Top of the Pops, an absolute rarity.
Brian Robertson was the Best Leadguitarist in Thin Lizzy ever !!!
Beat Lehmann I totally agree
Beat Lehmann Great tone he gets using cry baby wah as a phase notcher
@@silverarrowslk Never, Gary Moore was head and shoulders better.!!
Absolutely the best, most original and coolest player of all Lizzy line ups.
Brian made it look effortless, like he could do it in his sleep.
Gorham and Robertson Guitar Gods Wow could they wail on it .
Been a fan for over 40 years but strangely never seen this performance before. Thanks for uploading 👍
Me neither....wot a little gem!!
Saw them in 1978 on the Live and Dangerous Tour, in the place I was living at, at the time - Freiburg, Germany.
Scott Gorham couldn't be there, he was sick. But it was a kick-ass concert none the less!
he made the Dublin accent sound so cool
It is cool right bud😀
He had more of a Manchester accent
@@lizzyfan1986 Really!!
@@lizzyfan1986 one of the maddest comments ever 🤣🤣🤣
@@lizzyfan1986 He had a heavy Dublin accent, what's with you Brits trying to claim everything good that comes out of Ireland as your own?
Absolutely brilliant. Always loved em and still do. Much respect from London 🎶🕺💋
So so cool was Phill,what a great Irish band.
❤❤❤❤love it
Classic Rock baby!! :)
These guys fucking ROCK!!!
Shows how good live they were
A cover that exceeds the original. I bet Bob Seger agrees. I like the way they drop a little "Cowboy Song" at the end. Such a cool band.
Thankyou Kenny everit! For in 1979 I saw you’re show and thin Lizzy appeared and my rocking world began
*your show
Coolest front man ever! RIP
Thin lizzy for the music and scott when his hair was long, loved it
Pure class 👍
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PUT THESE CATS IN THE HALL OF FAME WAY OVER DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They were nominated last year but didn't get in

Yes, lots and lots!
At the peak of his powers, our Phil.
Best Band best Frontman ever
Rock On!!!
love love lizzy best ever:)
well maybe ive been seeing things
but thin lizzy is one of the few bands that don't 100% lip synch in TV performances, like this one
That’s why TOTP stopped them doing cold sweat live and Philo and the boys stormed off
He wanted to do it live and not lip sync 🤜🏼🤛🏾
Wow! Yeah! 10/10!

Not taking anything away from Lizzy but only one band? I'll just leave this here...

Rosalie by thin Lizzy classic song from the eighties good music
The best Rock band.
That was so fuckin awesome
ТИН ЛИЗЗИ - ваще заебись играют,одна из любимейших англоязычных рок-групп 70-ых в СССР)Шин Фейн!
classic line up but they never had a bad one
Agreed, but all iterations were class true and true.
Mind blowing to think there's 21 dummies who would give this thumbs down. What a fantastic clip!!! And actually live!!!
They live in an upside down world🙃, it's actually a thumbs up!! 👍😜
Perfect.
Killer shit! A class of their own 🤙🤘🍻🎸🔊🎤
Top 3!!! The beatles black sabbath and you fookin know it THIN LIZZY!!!!!!!!!!!
Not 1 but 2 Les Paul standards Thank You Bob Seger. Rosalie was the Best. CKLW 🇺🇸🇨🇦. Detroit Grit
Class
y z'ont la Classe Thin Lizzy , y z'ont tout putain jles adore qu'ils ne soient jamais oubliés !!!!
Wish I could watch a live performance of the Nightlife album so I can see WHO PLAYS EACH FUCKING SOLO.
is it me or do the solos in that album sounds like the same person played them??
This metal head lioves some thin lizzy
Thin Lizzy paved the way for metal in many ways
@@smokesletsgo2374 Bang on. I often think that when I listen to Thunder And Lightning.
Elton John uses this guitar riff in The Bitch is Back, or is it the other way around? Both songs came out in 74.
no both are different your ears are gubbed
Two Les Pauls, a Precision and a Rogers I believe.
Top of the Top of the Pops.
If your not down with Phil and Lizzy you got no soul!!!!
Thin Lizzy plays Bob Seger!
The frontmans frontman..
Not bad absolutely!
Wasn't Rosalie a radio DJ or a record producer?? not sure which.
🎸🎸❤️
great fucking band
O:20 perfect guitar
I once saw Motorhead do an awesome cover of this in Glasgow. 🤘
This is a cover, originally by Bob Seger.
@@Hellwyck I know, I'm just saying Motorhead's version was great as well
Hey Rosita, je, je..
