Official reissue on vinyl of their legendary 1971 debut album.
When scrolling down a list of debut LPs by rocks heaviest hitters, Thin Lizzy is as unheralded as they come. Long before the groups trademark "twin-guitar" sound was born and anthems like "The Boys Are Back In Town" became instant hall-of-fame material, the street tough Irish group was a dynamic power trio consisting of guitarist Eric Bell, singing bass player Philip Lynott, and sticksman Brian Downey. Forming only a year before their monumental signing to world-famous Decca Records, Thin Lizzy fused folk, hard rock, lyrical poetry, and a dose of Celtic lore in a heady brew that despite its potency, sold poorly at the time of release.
Its funny how 1971 can sound so contemporary, a testament to the music, power, strength, feeling, and sensitivity of Thin Lizzy, three out-of-their-heads Dublin rockers who gave their heart and soul for a monster dose of rock and roll, influencing thousands upon thousands right up to the present."
