    The man's a fool -Fantastic!!! To see Phil,John and Rick like this is just a tremendous sight!!!!The bands just don't play like this anymore these guys were class!!!! Rip philo

    Shocking to see Rick Wakeman as the on-stage keyboardist with the least mad outfit.

    I miss Phil so much. And Sykes won’t release any new music. It’s such a shame.

    The arrangement of this performance sounds much better than the studio version of the song.

    What an eclectic lot, if I didn't know any better I would have thought this was a band of Thin Lizzy, someone from the Village People, a drummer who almost looks like Keith Moon and someone from Kool and the Gang. Fits Lynott perfectly since he versatile with styles and musical genres

      Wow. Drummer is the spittin image of Moon. Good call.

    Phil was simply amazing . In his youth and 20's he rocked his ass off . As he aged he his songwriting started to blossom . I wish he could have lived longer cause I can only imagine what he would have created . He was starting to play with other great musicians .

    Sykes is the man - playing solos in the neck position, and I dug the drummer choking up on the stick in his right hand so much. Bass player knows you can't go wrong with a Ric. Great showing with Phil playing rhythm, too!

    When Phil Lynott died I was devastated. I still am. He was my Elvis. Rick, you are wonderful. Amazing musician. Of course I will check everything you put up. Big hug and love from Sweden.

    The highlight of my first “business” trip to Dublin was finding the statue of Phil Lynott. He died way way way too soon but left a legacy of incomparable music.

    • @newavatar2947
      @newavatar2947 5 років тому +3

      Yes that second album was an all around really good record. The songs flowed together beautifully. The song "Together" should have been a U.S hit over here.

    John is one of my all time faves..my only complaint is that he gets a little carried away with the squeals...I think Phil kept that in check (also that i wish he'd get his ass on the road again :) )

      It's a Rickenbacker, modified by Alembic to have 3 pickups each with separate outputs. Fun fact - it was later stolen, then ended up being owned and played by Lemmy!

    • @emander8340
      @emander8340 3 роки тому +1

      Jerome Maurice Rimson. Played with so many greats Van Morrison, Aretha Franklin, Freddie Mercury, Phil of course, Automatic Man amongst many others. He also helped produce the song You to me are everything. Multi talented piano player, bassist, sing writer and producer and an absolutely beautiful human being. Heart as big as his talent.
