Editor's note

Thin Lizzy's tough, melodic rock from Dublin

Phil Lynott's band mixed blues, folk, and hard rock into anthems that traveled far beyond Ireland.

For a quick frame, 'The Boys Are Back In Town' is the anthem, but 'Whiskey In The Jar' shows their folk-rock side. Both feel lived-in.

They broke through internationally with 'Jailbreak' in 1976, and 'The Boys Are Back In Town' became a worldwide hit. Their sound was a genuine mix, rock energy with Lynott's storytelling, heard on tracks like 'Whiskey In The Jar' and 'Don't Believe a Word.' The live album 'Live and Dangerous' from 1978 still gets mentioned as one of their essential releases.

Formed in Dublin in the early 1970s with Phil Lynott as frontman. They released several well-regarded albums in the late 1970s, like 'Bad Reputation' and 'Black Rose: A Rock Legend,' though lineup changes and Lynott's struggles affected the band's stability.
