Mouse Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 http://www.thinlizzy.orgFinally Thin Lizzy get a decent greatest hits set with 2 CD's. Ok the original single CD's were alright but they had even more good tracks that were missing. I recommend anyone wanting to get into Thin Lizzy or just the casual listener to pick it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouse Posted June 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 Your damn right Live & Dangerous is fantastic. It's an album that a lot can manage to like without being a big fan of the band, definately a classic.As for earlier albums it depends on how early you wanna go. 70-73 was when they were a 3-piece with 1 guitarist (Eric Bell) and played folk rock type stuff, I found it weird and hard to get into in general. Still this was the line up that churned out Whisky In The Jar and Eric Bell is a brilliant guitarist. The early years of the Brian Robertson/Scott Gorham line-up (2 guitarists) I'd say was 74-75 when they released Night Life & Fighting (before their big break with Jailbreak in 76). Night Life is a little weak sounding and more light mellow rock, whereas Fighting is just badass rock with bluesy guitar solos, nice guitar harmonies, good lyrics & tight drumming. It's my favourite Lizzy album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
