Brian Downey ist Schlagzeuger und Gründungsmitglied der legendären Dubliner Rockband Thin Lizzy. Gemeinsam mit alten und neuen Weggefährten aus der irischen Rockszene hat er 2016 Brian Downey's Alive And Dangerous gegründet, um dem Rocksound der Siebziger zu huldigen.
Brian Downey war zusammen mit Sänger und Gitarrist Phil Lynott das einzige konstante Mitglied von Thin Lizzy, bis zu deren Auflösung im Jahr 1983. Danach spielte Downey weiter in Lynotts Soloprojekten und mit Gary Moore, live und unter anderem auch auf Moores weltbekanntem "Still Got The Blues"-Album.
Gemeinsam mit den Gitarrenvirtuosen Brian Grace und Phil Edgar sowie dem Bassisten und Sänger Matt Wilson aus Belfast, der Phil Lynott würdig vertreten kann, performt Brian Downey die Hits von Thin Lizzy vor Rockfans in ganz Europa.

As a lifelong Thin Lizzy fan. They are absolutely brilliant. Spot on. Brian is arguably one of the best Rock drummers of all time. Just give a good listen to his drumming on Emerald and Chinatown to name but a few, what a great style he has.
Brian Downey is 72 years old... man he is still incredible...
he's always had great technique, control
he looks like Joe Biden trying to keep time. The band as a whole is definitely good. But Brian looks, acts, and plays old.
I can't believe how good the sound quality is😂
@@chebrneckAfraid to hear what you think of Ringo.
@@chebrneck If you mean he looks his age, yeah, he does. But so what? Sooner a lean, fit 70-something on the kit than an overweight, amorphous orange blob.
Love that singer. He channels Phil without mimicking him. This a solid lineup all around and Brian is still killing it. I'd go see this.
so would I
I couldn't have said it better myself. This is blowing my socks off! I love it! Brian's still going strong and love this band! You better get your asses up to Holland boys...on the double!
indeed, great voice n same kinda singing style too, even hair is familiar.
They are great live...saw them at 30th Vibe
There, you said it all.
Mr Downey, you are a legend, the vocalist is superb, and the guitarists are great, a well put together band, this takes me back to my youth. An appearance by Scott would have put the cherry on the cake....
Absolutely, would love to see him guest for these guys, would be incredible.
Yes,yes agreed. This is great stuff. Keep pounding Mr Downey.😅
I used to hang out with the band in the Bailey Bar Dublin in the early 70ts we all went to london in 73-4 I lived with the Roadies in west London,
Awesome! I bet you have some amazing memories.@@davidclarke9783
As A Thin Lizzy fanatic, I WISH I COULD SEE THIS BAND......WOW
Same! 😎
In Glasgow in march. Maybe take a look for any shows in your area.
Brian was and still is a one of a kind drummer. In addition to that this band is excellent! The singer does an outstanding job on vocals.
The singer seems to have a great similarity to Phil Lynnot.
Hell yea! Usually remakes aren't as good, but these guys are great! 💯💯👍👍
BD the reason I became a drummer
Brian my favorite drummer. Big influence on my drumming. Unique style and Phil used him on the majority of his solo stuff. And yeah this singer has Phil down to the T
He is good singer man. I dig it.
Nobody swings like Brian Downey most under rated drummer in rock n Roll Lizzy best hard rock band ever
Brian Downey, the most underrated drummer in rock.
watched the first three songs and am blown away
Brian Downey is one of the greatest rock drummers of all time. His sound is unique. He contributed so much to the way thin Lizzy songs sounded. My favourite album is Johnny the fox
Mine, too!! Downey has been my favorite drummer since Nightlife was released. I was ten and an older buddy turned me on to Lizzy with that album. Man, this is probably the best Lizzy cover band ever!! GO, BRIAN, GO!!!
@@crusheverything4449 totally agree with that. Lizzy released one classic album after another
Johnny the Fox is also a favourite of Brian's
@@TheHumbuckerboy Brian's drumming on it is incredible 🥁
@@laurencelevene4333 Agreed. Plus Brian likes the production quality on the album
The Band Brian has assembled is something else. That singer has a hell of a voice, sings with real soul and conviction. The guys on guitar are brilliant. It's never going to be Lizzy but it's pretty damn close. Please come to the States
Who is the lead guitarist ? Amazing player.
I'm blown away how good these guys are.
Best Thin Lizzy "tribute" i have heard. Brian 100% needs to bring this to the UK.
They played at Thunder in the Glens in Aviemore last year. A cracking night.
Saw them at the New Cross Inn, SE London, a couple of years ago. Fantastic!
Is it fair though to the original members/ writers….just one member?
They do sound good all the same!
They are playing the UK this month
@@realscience948 More than fair. Scott Gorham is doing his own thing with Black Star Riders, while Brian Robertson's solo career is what it is; and dear Phil Lynott is sadly no longer with us. So, Mr Downey's keeping this music alive.
Brian Downey along with Paice, Bonham & Bill Ward are the greatest rock drummers ever.
Neil peart
agreed! i'd add Mitch Mitchell (Hendrix) and Bobby Caldwell (Captain Beyond/Armageddon) to that list. and Billy Cobham (yep, a jazz maestro, but he could rock with the Mahavishnu Orchestra or solo).
@@daniellofthouse And Bill Bruford, Vinnie Colaiuta, Mike Portnoy, Tommy Aldridge, Simon Phillips, Jeff Porcaro, Terry Bozzio, etc...
Keith moon...Charlie Watts...
Karen Carpenter is on quite a few lists.@@chrissturgess4323
Came across this purely by chance. What a band - grew up with Lizzy throughout the 70's and this is as close as it gets. Astounding musicianship there and the vocalist is up there with some of the best. Even watching this at home on computer you can feel the atmosphere from the crowd.
This is so brilliant.....Brian at 72yrs old keeping Lizzy alive!
The real star of this video is the sound crew, excellent.
Excellent point by you!
I think everything in the mix is perfect
Amen
Fucking excellent sound.
Ok i agréé..but thé IS a performance too
This is absolutely bang-on mid 70s Thin Lizzy Live and Dangerous with Scott and Robbo on guitar. The pacing the phrasing, the solos and, of course, Brian on drums.
He is such a tasty drummer. Fluid, rocking and with a real jazz swing. Just an amazing drummer. And overlooked, sadly, in the usual suspects top 20 drummers lists.
Lucky enough to see Lizzy in 1980/81. This is why I now have tinnitus ....! Seventies rock will never die ... Most excellent lads ... Ta very much
61 minutes of the best rock songs ever written, performed as faultlessly as they were by Phil and the boys in the 70's.. Phil and Gary's spirits live on. Brian you should be proud
Live and Dangerous all over again, thought I was back in the 70’s. Giving me goosebumps just watching these guys. Absolutely brilliant.
Thank you, Brian Downey, for putting this great tribute band together.
Thank God somebody's still playing these songs. We'd all be so much poorer without them
Brian Downey solid as a rock on drums.
One of the best.
He is the best!
He’s still as cool as ice 👍🏻👍🏻
@Streetshitter no triggers, no samples.
@Streetshitterwe all know you prefer djs with laptop shat !!
A much underrated drummer. Never gets the credit he deserves. A real favourite of mine.
Excellent band! Singer makes a fantastic job. And Mr Downey is still without a doubt one of the best rock’n’roll drummers in the world!😎
Keeping it going after all these years Phil would be proud Top notch Band great singer and of course Brian Downey on drums
Thin Lizzy. Klasse Songs, Philip Lynott war der Allerbeste. Gut dass seine Musik von einer zeitgemäßen Band nachgespielt wird.
Brian Downey’s drumming was so integral to Lizzy’s style and arrangements, I’ve always said he should have co-writing credit on every Lizzy original. And he’s still crushing at 72. Just incredible!!
Drummers often do not get their credit. Ginger Baker did a LOT for Cream and Bonzo did even more, and no credit.
@@user-wf4fv4oc1h - Bonzo gets no credit? Everyone I know say he’s Top 3 all-time in rock.
Yes, Bonzo gets credit as Led Zeps drummer, but he contributed to a lot of the riffs. Jimmy would listen to him warm up etc. Lots of anecdotes, but Bonzo was a rhythm riff master. Out on the Tiles is his for example. John Paul Jones also misses credit too. He wrote the riff for Black Dog. So Jimmy did not do it all, in terms of writing, let alone the stuff he took from others and ended up in court. Bonzo rocks.@@crusheverything4449
@@crusheverything4449he means song writing credits.
One of the most underrated rock drummers playing some of the best guitar rock to bless our ears. Miss you Phil and Gary - thanks Brian for continuing to remind us why we loved Lizzy so much. Great work guys! Simply excellent all round. Phil from Downunder!
An incredible tribute to the greatest front man and band EVER. This is BRILLIANT. The music is true and every guitar part is perfect. Made me sad for the loss.
I've always liked Phil's voice. A deeper, warmer voice than most singers, hard rock and heavy metal. This singer has the same tone of voice as him. His performance is remarkable.
He's got it man, for sure.
like so Phil.
Brilliant, Brian Downey has put together a band that is more Thin Lizzy than any of the previous incarnations.the drums, back beat , its Brian,can't get any more thin Lizzy . sound , guitars and the singer,hes got a great voice ,just hope it coincidental on the look😂
Superb hope Brian brings this to the UK 10/10
THIS IS PHENOMENAL!!! PLEASE COME TO BOSTON !!! HUGE THIN LIZZY FAN HERE!! BRIAN IS SUCH A GREAT DRUMMER! PHILIP & GARY ARE SMILING UP THERE!!!
Thank who ever for Brian Downey. That was the first time i was in tears for Thin Lizzy. The show you and the lads are doing is Fantastic. Long may you all stay together because you are something special.
Pleasantly surprised how good this is. Downey is still one of rocks best drummers.
One of the most underrated rock drummers of all time playing some of the greatest guitar rock music ever to bless our ears. Miss you Phil and Gary - thanks Brian for continuing to remind us why we loved Thin Lizzy. Great stuff guys! Would love to see you live.
The frontman is amazing!!!
The best ive heard since my Lizzie days. You need to do the Uk Scotland.Remember the Apollo days
As a drummer i am in awe of Brian. He is a legend. Still rockin out. Way to go and what a band. Brilliant.
Love Downeys style always controlled and very smooth, great to see him still out there rockin' and keeping Philo and Thin Lizzy's spirit alive!!!
Absolutely epic drummer snd had the pleasure to meet him years ago and total gentleman…
Absolutely Brilliant Rock music, Phil Lynott Would be proud.👍🤘
OMG.. This is more than tribute. Brian rocks! Band is very good! Thin Lizzy has been my all time favorite band since 1980 (when I found them). If this band comes to Finland I am there!
Now that's rock
Absolutely love this. Impressed by all but I have to say, most impressed by Mr. Brian Downey still playing drums like a young man. Never missed a beat.
Yes! this is what I love, two screaming Les Paul's with a tight rhythm section and a great vocalist all rockin!❤❤🎸🎸🤘😎🤘
Magnificent! Finally a tribute band worthy of Phil' s legacy.
Downey is on fantastic form here. Such a tasteful drummer. Great feel. The whole band are nailing it. It’s like 1978 again.
WOW, I'VE JUST BEEN BLOWN AWAY, MIGHTY, SOLID, 17 AGAIN BLISS SUNG EVERY TUNE WITH THEM, LOVED IT, GOING SEEING THESE BOYS. WOW.
😎🏴👍
Great songs, Warrior is insanely good! Gorham and Robertson were a hell of an act...still, these guys are damn good too. Singer retains the Lynott vibe but he's his own man...impressive. Loved Lizzy back in the day...real stylish band, and this is good, real good.
I'm a huge Brian Downey fan. So glad to see this. He and the rest of the band were on point.
That drum kit sounds so fkn good. Geeze, what pro player.
Just incredible, grew up with Thin Lizzy, you deserve a medal Brian, keeping the sound going.
Damn, one of the greatest rock drummers of all time...
Wow! Incredible tribute to Thin Lizzy. It sounds so good. The singer is perfect.
Thanks Rockpalast. And what a stellar bandperformance. It does totally right to the original Thin Lizzy live energy.
An utterly amazing performance of these classic Lizzy songs. Brian is and always has been a fantastic drummer, his swing and power shamefully goes unnoticed in the drumming lists of best rock drummers. This is the band he’s put together to celebrate Thin Lizzy and by the measure of the musicians he’s assembled, clearly more than just a drummer!! Absolutely fabulous on all levels, including the sound engineer for this performance. Please come to Scotland!!! You deserve to hear the joy and appreciation of what this band would bring everyone attending 🤘
Absolutely amazing! I am blown away as a Lizzy fan just to see how awesome these guys are and Brian behind the kit.. legendary😊
Great show,great vocalist,Brian amazing ageless drummer glad they kept spirit thin Lizzy alive 👍❤️
Brian Downey - the king of swing.
one of the best rock drummers in the bussiness
THIS IS KILLER.
Best singer i heard out there singing Phil..
Not trying to be him, yet does him complete honor and justice.
Downey sounds amazing for his age.
Guitars doing their own thing, yet covering the live album.
No weakness anywhere..
Les Pauls and Marshall stacks, killer tone.
Nobody can play these songs as Downey can..
I saw Lizzy 3x in the late 70's and early 80's..
This is the best "cover" of Lizzy I've seen anywhere..
I agree. This is Brian Downey Band playing the music of Thin Lizzy. The music lives and speaks.
@@user-wf4fv4oc1h
He always had great wrists..
Perfect description, great review ‼️
Trying to look like Phil or deliberately recruited. Never mind, it totally works and I don't mind!
What a wonderful video! I’m blown away by just how good this band is. Brian Downey was always the unsung hero of the band back in the day and he’s drumming as well as ever. as for the rest of the band? Well, they nailed it. The two guitarists play so well together it almost felt like Robertson/Gorham. The bass player and singer has the right amount of swagger to go with the talent.
This is amazing. God bless Mr Downey and his band.
the version of ''Still in Love With You'' is the best I have heard that wasn't Thin Lizzy, well done guys, took me back to the 70's, thank you.
Saw Brian and lizzy 50 years ago, still awesome
The best lizzy lineup I have seen without Phil. Gives me goosebumps. Simply brilliant. The singer is damn charismatic. Great job Brian. Keep on going.
The tour Lizzy did with Sykes singing was pretty bad ass too.
Not to pick nits when I simply love all of it, but one night in dublin bests this, and I prefer the BSR guys voice over this gentleman when he isn't covering Phil.
But really who cares? They're doing an epic present day job carrying the rock and roll torch for the coolest band in history.
Thanks a bunch for all the hard work Brian! 😎🤘
Good Rock and Roll indeed! @@RexApplegate
Wonderful the magic of Brian Downey has picked great musicians Phil would be proud the boys are back in town ❤
Great Brian Downey, great Band, very good. 👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏🙂
Great band. Still a fantastic drummer.
I first saw Brian (plus Phil, Robbo and Scott) 50 years ago in Southampton, UK. He's lost absolutely nothing. The crew he's got now are just fantastic too. Long may you rock, Brian.
What a Show, All the guys are Great, but What a Treasure Brian Downey is. Un believable
Brian is still one of the greats.brillant sound
Great playing and that singer is fantastic. 🎸🎸🎸🎸
By far the best Tribute to Thin Lizzy .. 👍💯🎸🥁🤘
Goddamn! So Good... Mix is fantastic. Bravo Brian and Lads
Love to Rockpalast. And to the whole band. Giving me the goose bumps. And of course to the man who did it all. Phil, in the brightest memory forever. ❤️
Now these lads are outstanding. 🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💯
Very impressed. Brian Downey still kicking ass on those drums. Good singer, without being a Phil wannabee. Great overall sound. 👍
Without being a Phil wannabe? From the hairstyle, to the posture, to the vocal tone, to the way he wears his bass guitar … he’s a total Phil wannabe, if I ever saw one.
This is fantastic.
Love that snare sound ❤
Wonderful lineup. The best band to perform Thin Lizzy's songs!!!!!
...Absolutely brilliant!!!...Gobsmacked...
Świetne brzmienie, jak oryginał! Brian the best. Cała grupa super, chce się słuchać. Phil się nie będzie wstydził.😀🤩💪👍
Dzieki🤘
Wow - Amazing!!!!! Best Thin Lizzy tribute I've seen. they should be playing to huge crowds. Sounds really authentic and the energy and tone, feel - everything is just right!!!!!!!!
Whoa, they sound great. So awesome to hear thin Lizzy's music alive and well and getting out to the younger generation.
Closing my eyes, I thought I was back in 1977 at a live show,, Brian is so underrated as a drummer, definitely one of Rock's beat.
👍🏼🤟🏼 Downey hasn't missed a beat. Nice job gentlemen. Very enjoyable.
Brian Downey ROCKS.
GOD BLESS HIM
He is still right there holding back the pocket for everyone to lean back on. Just listen to
"still in love with you"
My God it's hard to believe the age we all are when we were all young once
Mick was right
"what a drag it is getting old"
I will miss everyone so much
Stunning!!! Most good tribute bands can get the notes right but these guys absolutely capture the spirit and the passion of the originals. They should draft Scott Gorham into the group and just call it "Thin Lizzy"!!!
This lifelong Thin Lizzy fan is absolutely gobsmacked by how incredible this is.
This is great to see. The best ‘Lizzy’ related thing I’ve seen. Really great to Brian playing. The guys up front are great especially the singer.
Stellar job boys thank you so much for keeping one of my favorite and Kick-Ass bands alive and well hats off to Brian for wanting to keep Thin Lizzy music alive
The singer is outstanding Brian has put together an amazing line up hopefully they will play in Dublin soon
I am absolutely Speechless. I have always been hesitant to look at any incarnation of Thin Lizzy other than the original band that I grew up with and loved all my life, and a band that I still rate as the greatest live rock band of all time. But this group of musicians and the way in which they have been able to honour and recreate with such attention to detail that Brian Robertson period of Thin Lizzy which we all know was the greatest has left me speechless. I got goosebumps watching this. So much respect to the guys playing with the legend that is Brian Downey and his Alive And Dangerous. Bloody fantastic.
Absolutely one of the best to date since Phil love this band
Brian is still one superb drummer who swings like no one else . What a great band .
The show is just perfect, the skills of the guitarists and the vocalist are incredible. It's amazing to listen to the Thin Lizzy songs! Brian Downney is simply perfection. Congrats!
Wow, the lead vocal is great. Hope this band continues to tour.
That young guy on drums is nailing it. Phil would be proud. Best tribute I've ever heard. Lizzy never had anything recorded this good. Hope they keep the music alive for years to come.
Amazing Brings it all back Reading Festival 1977 thank you
Truely excellent the closest I have heard to the original Thin Lizzy greatness ever. Well done Brian for keeping the TL brilliance alve and very dangerous.
TL have been my fav band always.
I didn't expect much, but this is damn good!!!
