It is with heavy hearts that we deliver this week's episode honoring the passing of a guitar hero giant who also happened to be an awesome singer and songwriter: John Sykes. He was a guitarist deserving of the title guitar god who rarely got mentioned in the same circles as the Satches, Vais, Rhodes, and Van Halens. Most known for his brief stint in Thin Lizzy at the end of their career and as a brief member of Whitesnake. He should have been a household for playing on the Whitesnake 87 album that sold 25M records worldwide, but he was fired before it came out. Kevin's a huge fan of Blue Murder, so we will focus on that band and some of the lesser-known projects he was involved in while also paying homage to his mainstream successes. New to InObscuria? Typically, what we do is exhume obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. Rest In Peace John. Your pure musicality and amazing songs will live forever in our hearts!Songs this week include:Blue Murder – “We All Fall Down” from Nothin' But Trouble (1993)Streetfighter – “She's No Angel” from Lightnin' To The Nations: NWOBHM 25th Anniversary Collection (2005)Tygers Of Pan Tang – “Blackjack” from Spellbound (1981)John Sykes – “Pride And Joy” from Crossfire: A Salute To Stevie Ray (1996)Derek Sherinian – “God Of War” from Mythology (2004)Thin Lizzy – “Cowboy Song” from One Night Only (2000)John Sykes – “Cautionary Warning” from 20th Century (1997)Blue Murder – “Still Of The Night” from Screaming Blue Murder: Dedicated To Phil Lynott (1994)Blue Murder – “Jelly Roll” from Screaming Blue Murder: Dedicated To Phil Lynott (1994)Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://twitter.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/InObscuria?asc=uIf you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/Check out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/

Rockshow episode 210 The Story of Phil Lynott and Thin LizzyPhilip Parris Lynott, born on August 20, 1949, in West Bromwich, England, and raised in Dublin, Ireland, was the charismatic frontman, bassist, and primary songwriter of Thin Lizzy—one of the most influential rock bands of the 1970s and early 80s. Known for his poetic lyrics, distinctive voice, and commanding stage presence, Lynott played a crucial role in shaping the band's signature sound, blending hard rock with Celtic influences and storytelling.The Formation of Thin Lizzy (1969-1972)Lynott formed Thin Lizzy in Dublin in 1969, along with drummer Brian Downey, guitarist Eric Bell, and organist Eric Wrixon (who left shortly after). The band was named after a character from a comic book (The Dandy's “Tin Lizzie”). They signed with Decca Records and released their self-titled debut album in 1971, but mainstream success eluded them at first.Their breakthrough came in 1972 with their reworking of the traditional Irish folk song “Whiskey in the Jar,” which became a major hit in Ireland and the UK. However, after their next few albums underperformed, Eric Bell left the band, leading to a major lineup change that would define their classic sound.The Classic Thin Lizzy Lineup (1974-1980)After Bell's departure, Thin Lizzy transitioned into a twin-guitar rock powerhouse. Lynott recruited Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson, forming the band's legendary dual-guitar attack. Their first major success in this era came with “The Boys Are Back in Town” (1976) from the Jailbreak album, which remains their most famous song.Notable Albums & Songs:•Jailbreak (1976) – “The Boys Are Back in Town,” “Jailbreak” •Johnny the Fox (1976) – “Don't Believe a Word” •Bad Reputation (1977) – “Dancing in the Moonlight,” “Bad Reputation”•Live and Dangerous (1978) – Regarded as one of the greatest live rock albums of all time•Black Rose: A Rock Legend (1979) – “Do Anything You Want To,” “Waiting for an Alibi,” “Black Rose”Thin Lizzy became known for their explosive live performances, poetic lyrics, and blending of hard rock with Irish storytelling. However, internal tensions, particularly with Brian Robertson's unreliability, led to lineup changes.The Later Years & Decline (1980-1983)Thin Lizzy disbanded in 1983 after a farewell tour, marking the end of an era.Phil Lynott's Solo Career & Tragic DeathAfter Thin Lizzy, Lynott pursued a solo career, releasing two albums:•Solo in Soho (1980) – “King's Call,” “Dear Miss Lonelyhearts”•The Philip Lynott Album (1982) He also collaborated with musicians like Gary Moore (“Out in the Fields”) and worked on various projects. However, his drug addiction worsened, and in late 1985, he collapsed due to complications from heroin and alcohol abuse.Phil Lynott passed away on January 4, 1986, at the age of 36.Thin Lizzy's LegacyDespite Lynott's passing, Thin Lizzy's influence remains strong. Various members have carried on the band's music, with Scott Gorham leading tribute tours. Lynott's lyrical storytelling, stage presence, and fusion of Celtic themes with hard rock inspired countless musicians, including Metallica, Iron Maiden, and U2.Today, Lynott is celebrated as Ireland's first great rock star, with statues, documentaries, and tributes keeping his legacy alive.Essential Listening for New Fans: Phil Lynott remains one of rock's most beloved and tragic figures—a poet, a rocker, and a legend whose music still resonates today.http://www.thinlizzy.org/phil.htmlhttps://youtube.com/@thinlizzyofficial?si=HtxqVIFF3_AuRiWrhttps://www.thinlizzyofficial.com/https://www.facebook.com/share/15serR1qV2/?mibextid=wwXIfrhttps://x.com/thinlizzy_?s=21&t=Mzw5de5zsR-SDDbhyzH0Lghttps://www.instagram.com/thinlizzy?igsh=bjE3aXRvdnhnMDVh#ThinLizzy #PhilLynott #RockLegends #ClassicRock #IrishRock #TheBoysAreBackInTown #Jailbreak #LiveAndDangerous #70sRock #HardRock #WhiskeyInTheJar #BlackRose #DancingInTheMoonlight #RockNRoll #LegendaryBands

Batch's pick kicks off a new month and he's chosen a movie that honestly could have been made specifically for this podcast with Hobo With A Shotgun (2011)! This is the second film for this show that came about from a fake trailer featured in Grindhouse, I guess that means if Thanksgiving (2023) hits Tubi it'll have to be done for this show. Anyways, enjoy this wild episode everyone!Hobo With A Shotgun was directed by Jason Eisener, it stars Rutger Hauer, Molly Dunsworth, Brian Downey, Gregory Smith, Robb Wells and Pasha Ebrahimi.If you have never listened to a commentary before and want to watch the film along with the podcast, here is how it works.

We will tell you when to press and you follow along, it is that easy! Because we have watched the films on Tubi, it is a free service and there are ads, however we will give a warning when it comes up, so you can pause the film and provide time stamps to keep in sync.Highlights include:* The belief is Bede is not here because he's avoiding Baby Kraven and the nerds!* Shout out to ONLYFANGS - currently on Indiegogo from the makers of Murdercise!* Kollin is in for a treat as he hasn't seen Hobo With A Shotgun before!* So Brian Downey as Drake is obviously a Best Supporting Actor nominee!* Can you tell this film was shot in Canada?!* Can you predict which moment from the Attitude Era gets referenced?!* That isn't hot gloryholes work!* Who laughed the most this episode?

They recorded in a band called Skid Row, and would associate through the decades, until Phil's death in 1986 at age 36. That included stints in Thin Lizzy, the band Phil led, which we explore this week.Their songs had their own legend, and broke them worldwide, but it was the live shows that sealed their reputation, badass as it was.  Markus and Ray try to detail as much as possible about the formation and evolution of Thin Lizzy, and the varied factors that worked for, and against, the band.Hope you find some good stuff in this one.

O THIN LIZZY foi uma banda irlandesa que influenciou bastante o movimento New Wave Of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) na Inglaterra. Um dos grandes responsáveis pelo sucesso da banda foi o álbum JAILBREAK, que contava com os hits "The Boys Are Back in Town" e a música homônica. Além dessas, o álbum traz também: "Angel from the Coast", "Running Back", "Romeo and the Lonely Girl", "Warriors", "Fight or Fall", "Cowboy Song" e "Emerald". A banda era formada por Phil Lynott (vocais, baixo, violão), Brian Downey (bateria e percussão), Brian Robertson (guitarra) e Scott Gorham (guitarra). Então, convidamos Claudio Borges ( @Resenhando Rock ) para tomar uma e falar sobre todas as faixas do JAILBREAK, do THIN LIZZY! ******************************************** SEJA MEMBRO DO CLUBE TUPFS E TENHA ACESSO A UMA SÉRIE DE VANTAGENS!

A story about a man down on his luck, a pedophile Santa Claus, a burning bus full of school children, and a shotgun. Listen in as me and my returning guest, Dan, talk through this hyper-violent and wickedly fun homage to grindhouse exploitation. Directed by Jason Eisener (The ABCs of Death, V/H/S/2) and written by John Davies (V/H/S/2), New York Magazine (Vulture) called the film an "unpretentious carnival of carnage" and the Globe and Mail said it was "a well-designed cinematic mess." I say that this film should be in the Library of Congress due to its deliciously juicy level of cartoonish violence. It tells the story of an unnamed Hobo (affectingly played by the late and great Rutger Hauer) who rides the rails into Hope Town, a once idillic hamlet that has since fallen under the control of psychopath extraordinaire The Drake and his douchebag demon sons Ivan and Slick (played respectively by Brian Downey, Nick Bateman, and Gregory Smith). Hobo tries to keep to himself as he witnesses a public execution, a pedophile Santa kidnapping children, a lowlife making a Bum Fights-style video, and various other nasty bits of business. After seeing Abby (Molly Dunsworth), a hooker with a heart of gold, get roughed up he intercedes which sets him on a path which finds him inexorably entangled with the scum of the city. With his trusty Remington 870 in hand the Hobo hero starts to dole out street justice one blast at a time. Dan may have been a bit shook by the rampant violence in this film, as many probably will be, but it really is rather comedic and entertaining with flashes of heart and sincerity. It's construction is pitch-perfect as it truly feels like it would hang with the best of the grindhouse sub-genre. The film is currently available on Magnolia Secrets via Amazon Prime, Crackle, and get it on Blu-ray.

As pride month comes to an end and the city celebrates everything queer in bright colors, we take a moment to look at how we got here and the future of pride in NYC. Pride from the early days looked very different from what it does today, from police brutality and the Stonewall Inn riots to, now, police officers walking in parades and corporations selling rainbow-colored everything. Some activists say that pride has become a corporate branded party, ignoring the struggles of the LGBTQ+ community. This week we will explore corporate involvement in pride and the frustration between LGBTQ NYPD officers and pride organizers. Sue Doster is the co-chair for NYC pride, and she tells us corporate involvement was almost nonexistent in the early days of pride. We'll also speak with Jay Walker, one of the founders of the reclaim pride Coalition. And lastly, we will hear from Brian Downey, the gay officers' action league president.

This week we continue our in-depth exploration of the individual musical and life journeys that culminated in the creation of Night Demon.  We pick up the story in Ocean City, Maryland, where a chance meeting resulted in Dusty meeting Shane Mac. Together, the two of them formed New Liberty, an ass kicking riff rock band hellbent on living the '80s rock star dream.  After another chance meeting at a singer/songwriter event, New Liberty were invited to Ventura, California to record a demo. Still chasing their pipe dream, Dusty and his bandmates piled into an ancient, decrepit RV and moved cross-country. By chance, they were slated to record their demo with Armand in his studio. Armand and New Liberty hit it off famously, both musically and personally, and Armand joined the band soon after. In this new configuration, New Liberty developed a strong local following and played numerous searing gigs, many of which Jarvis attended as a fan. Meanwhile, Jarvis was pouring his musical energy into Jeff Hershey and the Heartbeats, exploring different musical terrain, lifting his musicianship out of a one-dimensional rut, and learning volumes about other styles of music, showmanship, and European tour life. Eventually, however, Jarvis began feeling that the Heartbeats project had run its course and was left feeling uninspired. At around the same time, New Liberty imploded when the shifting music industry climate conspired to prevent them from parlaying their homegrown success into something bigger. A perfect storm was brewing. The time was nigh for Night Demon. Become a subscriber today at nightdemon.net/subscriber.

It's Pride Month, which means cities across the country will be having parades and other festivities, albeit scaled-down versions. In New York and several other cities, parade organizers have said uniformed police officers may not march as a group. Organizers say the move acknowledges that a Pride march isn't just a celebration and that it began as a statement about police violence against L.G.B.T.Q. people at the Stonewall Inn.This week, Jane Coaston speaks to André Thomas, a co-chair of NYC Pride, which organizes the parade, and Brian Downey, a New York Police Department detective and the president of the Gay Officers Action League.Mentioned in this episode:The documentary “We Were Here” about the H.I.V./AIDS crisis in San FranciscoThe podcast “Making Gay History”The New York Daily News headline after the Stonewall uprisingThe New York Times video “Pride March in New York Protests Police Brutality” showing the Queer Liberation March that gathered in Washington Square Park in 2020

Hoy os traemos un podcast del álbum en directo de la banda de Hard Rock y Blues Rock, Thin Lizzy. Thin Lizzy es una banda aparecida en Dublín, Irlanda en el año 1969. El grupo fue formado por el baterista Brian Downey y el bajista y vocalista Phil Lynott cuando todavía estaban en la escuela. Durante su carrera de más de doce proyectos de estudio, Lynott fue el líder de la formación. Lynott fue el compositor o co-compositor de casi todas las canciones de la banda, y el primer irlandés negro en lograr el éxito comercial en el campo de la música rock. Thin Lizzy contó con varios guitarristas a lo largo de su historia, con Downey y Lynott como la sección rítmica, en la batería y el bajo. Además de ser multirracial, la banda atrajo a sus primeros miembros no solo de ambos lados de la frontera irlandesa, sino también de las comunidades católica y protestante durante The Troubles. Su música refleja una amplia gama de influencias, que incluyen blues, música soul, rock psicodélico y música folclórica tradicional irlandesa, pero generalmente se clasifica como hard rock o, a veces, heavy metal. La revista Rolling Stone describe a la banda como claramente hard rock, "lejos del rebuzno del grupo de metal de mediados de los 70". Dos de los miembros fundadores de Thin Lizzy, el bajista y vocalista Phil Lynott y el baterista Brian Downey, se conocieron mientras estaban en la escuela en Dublín a principios de la década de 1960. Lynott, nacido el 20 de agosto de 1949 en West Bromwich, Inglaterra, de madre irlandesa, Philomena (1930-2019) y padre guyanés Cecil Parris (1925-2010), se crió en Dublín desde los tres años. Downey nació el 27 de enero de 1951 en Dublín. Lynott se unió a una banda local, The Black Eagles, como vocalista en 1963, y Downey fue contratado como baterista en 1965. En diciembre de 1969, Bell y Wrixon se conocieron por casualidad en un pub de Dublín y descubrieron que compartían ideas similares de formar una banda, y decidieron visitar el Countdown Club donde vieron a Lynott y Downey actuar con Orphanage. Lynott no tocaba el bajo en ese momento, pero Bell quedó particularmente impresionado por Downey y se presentó a Lynott y Downey durante un descanso. Cuando Bell preguntó si considerarían formar una banda juntos, Downey inicialmente se mostró escéptico , pero ambos hombres estaban al tanto de la reputación musical de Bell. Estuvieron de acuerdo esa noche con la condición de que Lynott tocara el bajo además de cantar, y que la banda interpretaría algunas de las composiciones de Lynott. A finales de 1972, la banda se embarcó en una gira de alto perfil por el Reino Unido con Slade, que estaban disfrutando de una serie de sencillos de éxito en ese momento, y Suzi Quatro. Casi al mismo tiempo, Decca lanzó la versión de Thin Lizzy de una balada tradicional irlandesa, "Whisky in the Jar", como single. A principios de 1975, Thin Lizzy realizó una gira por los Estados Unidos por primera vez, en apoyo de Bob Seger y Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO). Cuando BTO realizó una gira por Europa a finales de año para apoyar su sencillo "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet", Thin Lizzy nuevamente los acompañó en lo que fue una gira de muy alto perfil. Luego grabaron el álbum Fighting, que se convirtió en el primer álbum de Thin Lizzy en las listas en el Reino Unido, alcanzando el nº 60, aunque los sencillos todavía no llegaron a las listas. En 1978, Thin Lizzy lanzó su primer álbum en vivo 'Live and Dangerous'. Existe cierto desacuerdo sobre qué parte del álbum está realmente grabado en vivo: el productor Tony Visconti afirmó que las únicas partes que no se sobregrabaron fueron la batería y la audiencia. Sin embargo, Brian Robertson ha disputado esto, diciendo que había rechazado la solicitud de Lynott de volver a grabar un solo de guitarra, y que las únicas sobregrabaciones eran coros y algunas partes de guitarra de Gorham. Añadió: "Simplemente no es cierto. La única razón por la que dijimos que se grabó todo fue obviamente por razones fiscales ... así que todo lo que Visconti afirma son tonterías". Gorham está de acuerdo, afirmando que intentó hacerlo: regrabar un solo pero no pude recrear el sonido en vivo, y agregó: "Hice de nuevo una pista rítmica y algunas voces de acompañamiento. Pero eso es todo". El álbum fue un gran éxito, alcanzando el número 2 en el Reino Unido, y fue clasificado como el mejor álbum en vivo de todos los tiempos por la revista Classic Rock en 2004. La partida permanente de Robertson se produjo poco tiempo después de un concierto en Ibiza el 6 de julio de 1978, y los desacuerdos con Lynott se desarrollaron a un nivel imposible. Robertson luego se asoció con Jimmy Bain para encabezar su nueva banda, Wild Horses.

Fortus returned to tour with Guns N' Roses for the rest of the year, and Johnson has since replaced Fortus permanently. On 10 October 2012, Thin Lizzy announced that the new material would not be released under the Thin Lizzy name, but would be released under the name of Black Star Riders..

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Thin Lizzy, empezó su vida en Dublín en 1969, cuando dos amigos de la infancia: Phil Lynott y Brian Downey fueron abordados por dos ex miembros de la banda de Van Morrison, Them: Eric Wrixon (teclados) y Eric Bell (guitarra). Antes de esto, Lynott y Downey habían estado tocando juntos en un grupo denominado "Orphanage" (orfanato), junto con Pat Quigley en el bajo y la guitarra de Joe Staunton. El recién formado Thin Lizzy vio a Brian Downey a la batería y Lynott en bajo y voz. Su primer lanzamiento, en Parlophone Records, se produjo en julio de 1970: era una composición original de Lynott llamada "The Farmer", se prensaron unas 500 copias del single, con unos 283 vendidos: un humilde comienzo, puede ser, pero la banda estaba destinada para grandes cosas. Poco después, Wrixon dejó la banda y los tres miembros restantes continuaron tocando en vivo casi todas las noches de la semana. Peter Eustace, roadie del grupo recordó: "Thin Lizzy era la banda de Eric al principio, y Phil apenas figuraba. Mi primer recuerdo de Thin Lizzy en directo fue ver a Eric desarrollando sus mímicas de Jeff Beck y Jimi Hendrix." En 1971 firman para Decca Records, compañía que lanza "Thin Lizzy" su primer álbum. "Thin Lizzy" y "Shades of a Blue Orphanage" (su siguiente álbum, de 1972) fueron descritos como LP's interesantes y peculiares que tienden a desafiar la categorización fácil. Su temprana fama fue ayudada por el disc-jockey Kid Jensen, que les difunde en su programa de Radio Luxemburgo (una emisora del Gran Ducado que transmitía para las islas Británicas), comenzando a construir de este modo una carrera subterránea fuerte. Durante 1972 recorrieron Europa, ellos sabían que si querían entrar en un mercado más amplio, tenían que perseverar y tocar en Inglaterra. Más tarde ese año, Slade se fue de gira y se los llevó de teloneros, Decca lanzó un single para que coincida con esta gira, y escogieron una canción folclórica tradicional irlandesa: "Whiskey in the Jar", su primer éxito, que se mantuvo en la cima de las listas irlandesas durante 17 semanas, y alcanzó el número 6 en Inglaterra. Comienzan a trabajar en "Vagabonds of the Western World", su tercer álbum, que fue lanzado en el otoño de 1973. La combinación del arte pop de la portada con temáticas irlandesas en las canciones, junto con un diseño trebolado en la parte posterior, demostró la progresión creciente de la visión de Phil para el grupo: mística celta más hard rock contundente. Downey dijo: "La calidad de la escritura de Phil sumada a la agresión de la música creó un buen álbum. Creo que con "The Rocker" solo basta para resumir perfectamente de qué se trataba Thin Lizzy en ese momento." Durante este período Phil comenzó a tomar las riendas creativas de la banda y Eric Bell dejó el grupo en 1974. Fue reemplazado por Gary Moore durante unos meses, mientras se embarcaban en un tour irlandés, y luego en una gira inglesa. Una serie de fechas en Alemania fue lo próximo, con los guitarristas Andy Gee y John Cann. A pesar del trabajo, el éxito en las listas seguía eludiendo a la banda y Lynott y Downey estaban a punto de tirar la toalla: afortunadamente, en lugar de eso, contratan a dos nuevos guitarristas: Brian "Robbo" Robertson, escocés de Glasgow, y el californiano Scott Gorham, estas incorporaciones señalarían una nueva era para Thin Lizzy. El contrato con "Decca" se había agotado, y la recién reformada alineación firma con Phonogram/Vertigo, mediante la cual aparece "Night Life", su cuarto álbum, que fue lanzado en noviembre de 1974, entre tanto, la banda prosigue con ensayos y trabajo, perfeccionando su acto, tendiente a convertirse en un grupo más conjuntado y más consumado. "Fighting" El próximo álbum, que gana la calle en 1975, ve el estilo de Lizzy desarrollarse de manera más armoniosa, con las líneas de guitarra de Gorham y Robertson. Como Scott recuerda: "Wishbone Ash habían introducido las guitarras gemelas antes que nosotros, pero nosotros nos llevamos la idea, y la pusimos en un contexto de rock más pesado, con más agresión." Su arduo trabajo se vio recompensado con "Jailbreak", el nuevo álbum editado en 1976, y con el single "The Boys Are Back in Town", ambos fueron grandes éxitos internacionales, alcanzando el número 8 en las listas del Reino Unido. Al llegar al top 20 en los EE. UU., las ventas del álbum superaron las 100.000 copias, por lejos, su mayor éxito hasta la fecha. A caballo de esto, "Johnny the Fox", su próximo álbum, lanzado en octubre de 1976, fue certificado como disco de oro, y el single "Don't Believe a Word" alcanzó el número 12 en las listas del Reino Unido. Después de una gira británica exitosa, a finales de 1976, la banda estaba lista para un tour por los Estados Unidos, cuando Brian Robertson fue herido y se vieron obligados a cancelarlo. De todos modos se fueron a América como teloneros de Queen, con Gary Moore como reemplazo provisional de Robertson. Una vez que la gira había terminado, Robertson confirmó que no iba a volver al grupo, por lo cual quedan reducidos a trio, con Phil, Brian Downey y Scott Gorham, formación que graba "Bad Reputation", el álbum de 1977. No obstante Robertson volvió a reincorporarse a Lizzy durante la grabación del álbum, y se quedó con el grupo durante las sesiones, incluso tocando en vivo con la banda en apariciones especiales hasta agosto de 1978, cuando finalmente se fue para formar Wild Horses. "Bad Reputation" fue lanzado en septiembre de 1977 y llegó al número 4 en las listas inglesas, empujado por el suceso de "Jailbreak" y "Johnny the Fox", y entronando a Thin Lizzy como una de las bandas de rock más exitosas de la época. Thin Lizzy se embarcó en una gira por los EE. UU. en el otoño de 1977, y al año siguiente comenzó el trabajo de mezclas de un doble álbum en vivo: "Live and Dangerous", el cual fue un éxito a ambos lados del Atlántico. Más tarde, en 1978 giran una vez más por EE. UU., esta vez con Gary Moore en sustitución de Robbo: otro ausente fue Brian Downey, quien afirmaría: "Yo estaba totalmente exhausto" [...] "Yo simplemente no podía soportarlo más, no quería ver otro escenario en mi vida, y desde luego no quería ir a Australia, como se había propuesto." La banda reservó a Mark Nauseef (baterista de la Ian Gillan Band) para la ocasión, como reemplazo de Brian para el tour. Al final de la gira de 1978, Phil, Scott, Gary y el ahora descansado Brian Downey, se reunieron en Londres y París para trabajar en el siguiente LP, "Black Rose: A Rock Legend", finalmente lanzado en 1979: la pieza central de la obra fue la canción homónima, titulada -en gaélico- "Roisin Dubh".De nuevo en la carretera en los EE. UU., las fricciones dentro de la banda crecieron y dieron lugar a que Gary Moore fuese reemplazado abruptamente por Midge Ure en medio de la gira. El guitarrista Dave Flett, ex Manfred Mann's Earth Band, fue incorporado también a bordo para las fechas en Japón, lo que permitió a Midge cambiar a los teclados para algunas canciones, y permitió a los espectadores apreciar el fenómeno de tres guitarras solistas sobre el escenario. Después de las giras, Darren Wharton fue reclutado como teclista a tiempo completo, lo que permite a Midge honrar su compromiso anterior de unirse al grupo Ultravox. David Flett fue reemplazado por "Snowy" White en 1980, quien debutó en el álbum "Chinatown" (1980), aunque finalmente dio paso a John Sykes, que trajo consigo la energía de un joven guitarrista a Thin Lizzy. 1980 también vio el lanzamiento de "Solo in Soho", primer álbum en solitario de Phil: "Pearl Yellow" fue posteriormente elegido como tema musical del programa de la BBC Top of the Pops. Aunque catalogado como un álbum en solitario, el LP incluyó a Brian, Scott, Snowy White, Midge Ure, Mark Knopfler y Huey Lewis, entre otros. El compilado "The Adventures of Thin Lizzy" fue lanzado en 1981 y fue disco de oro en el Reino Unido, esto fue seguido de "Renegade", el nuevo álbum editado ese mismo año, junto con una gira. Thin Lizzy además encabezó el primer Festival de Slane, en Irlanda, con el apoyo de artistas como U2, Hazel O'Connor o Rose Tattoo. Las decepcionantes ventas, tanto de "Renegade" como del segundo álbum en solitario de Phil, precipitaron una gira de despedida, para coincidir con el lanzamiento de "Thunder and Lightning" (1983), aunque tanto el nuevo disco como las fechas en vivo fueron todo un éxito, y causaron un resurgimiento del interés por el grupo. Con John Sykes ahora a bordo del viaje, el tour duró casi un año, y culminó en una función de gala en el Hammersmith Odeon, con invitados especiales. El álbum doble en vivo "Life" recoge esta joya en directo, aunque el disco recibió una edición tardía. El último concierto de Thin Lizzy en el Reino Unido fue el 28 de agosto de 1983, en el Festival de Reading. Su concierto de despedida fue el 4 de septiembre de ese año en el Monsters of Rock Festival, en Nuremberg, Alemania.

We give a little Irish to you this week with our Thin Lizzy Discussion! Greg Troyan of the band Lipstick and podcast The Lipstick Panel joins us to cover the Thin Lizzy discography. Join us as we take you through each album, giving detailed stories about the production and songwriting. Additionally, we provide our thoughts on each album, picking our favorite songs. The Thin Lizzy history starts in 1971. Distributed by Decca Records and featuring the trio of Phil Lynott, Eric Bell, and Brian Downey, the first two albums, Thin Lizzy and Shades of a Blue Orphanage (1972), show a band struggling to find it's signature sound. However, there are several solid tracks on the first two albums. The original lineup ends its run on a high note with 1973's Vagabonds of the Western World. The classic Thin Lizzy lineup gets its start with 1974's Nightlife album. While new guitarists Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson display a bit of their future firepower on tracks like Sha La La and It's Only Money, the album is markedly mellow with such laid-back tracks as the title track, She Knows, and Frankie Carroll. 1975's Fighting album would see Thin Lizzy hone their sound into a tight, melodic hard rock. Tracks such as Fighting My Way Back, Suicide, and Freedom Song would show more edge while not losing melody. The ballad Wild One and moody Spirit Slips Away make Fighting a great album from front to back. Thin Lizzy would burst onto the world stage in 1976 with the release of Jailbreak. The title track and breakthrough single The Boys Are Back in Town propels the band to a much larger audience. Additionally, this strong effort is rounded out with such musical gems as Romeo and the Lonely Girl and Emerald. Thin Lizzy 1976 would see two releases from the band. Johnny the Fox, while not as successful as the previous album, boasts an impressive track list. Songs like Don't Believe a Word, Massacre, Old Flame, and Borderline would continue to show the diversity of song-craft from this band. Furthermore, Thin Lizzy would continue to impress in 1977 with the release of Bad Reputation. While marred with personnel issues during production, the album still delivers. Brian Robertson is in and out of the band during the making of this release, leaving Scott Gorham to handle the bulk of the guitar playing. Nevertheless, Bad Reputation is loaded with fantastic songs such as the title-track, Opium Trail, and the heartfelt Southbound. Thin Lizzy would document their awe-inspiring live sets with 1978's Live and Dangerous. Produced by Tony Visconti, the album would becomes a musical gateway drug for many aspiring rock musicians. Named by many as the greatest live rock album ever created, it is a blistering live document. Thin Lizzy Gary Moore, who had subbed previously over time for Brian Robertson, becomes a full member of Thin Lizzy in time for the next album. Black Rose: A Rock Legend is touted by many fans as the band's finest work. Songs such as Do Anything You Want to Do, Waiting for an Alibi, and Sarah do a great job of showing up the band's sense of melody and technical proficiency. Gary Moore's tenure doesn't last long and guitarist Snowy White is brought in for 1980's Chinatown album. Considered by some as a letdown in comparison to Black Rose, it still boasts some impressive songs such as the anthemic We Will Be Strong, Sweetheart, and Killer On the Loose. 1981's Renegade album is a divisive one among Thin Lizzy fans. The choices of keyboardist Darren Wharton and noted heavy metal producer Chris Tsangarides leaves some fans wondering if Thin Lizzy is abandoning their sound. While different, Renegade still has plenty of strong material including Leave This Town, No One Told Him, and the incredibly dark Angel of Death. Thin Lizzy releases their final album in 1983. Thunder and Lightning is a strong way to go out. Featuring the playing of John Sykes and, again, produced by Chris Tsangarides, the album is a ferocious final sonic document of a band that should have ruled the world. Songs like the title track, Cold Sweat, and The Holy War close out the Thin Lizzy canon with a bang.

Rick interviews Brian Downey on the NA Crusaders Unified Basketball Program

UDEN – Drummer Brian Downey is zaterdag 9 februari ‘back in town’. Hij speelt dan voor de tweede keer in De Pul in Uden. Downey vormde samen met zanger Phil Lynott de kern van Thin [...]

Gestur þáttarins að þessu sinni er Egill Rafnsson nýr trommari Dimmu. Birgir Jónsson sem hefur trommað með Dimmu undanfarin ár sagði starfi sínu lausu um skömmu fyrir jól. Egill hefur trommað lengi og víða með hinum og þessum, t.d. hljómsveitinni Sign. Plata þáttarins er plata írsku rokksveitarinnar Thin Lizzy, Black Rose: A Rock legend, sem kom út fyrir 40 árum í apríl 1979. Tilefnið er að dagurinn í dag er dánardagur Phil Lynott forsprakka, söngvara og bassaleikara Thin Lizzy. Lungnabólga og hjartabilun dró hann á endanum til dauða. Hann hafði verið í dái í 8 daga eftir að hafa tekið of stóran skammt af eiturlyfjum. Black Rose er níunda plata sveitarinnar og ein af þeim betri sem sveitin sendi frá sér og jafnframt ein vinsælasta platan. Platan náði öðru sæti breska vinsældalistans þegar hún kom út og hún er fyrsta plata Thin Lizzy sem skartan gítarleikaranum Gary Moore. Hann hafði átt tvö skeið með sveitinni áður. Fyrst 1974 og svo aftur ´77, en hann var í þau skipti ekki með nógu lengi til að vera með á plötu. Eitt laga plötunnar heitir Sarah og Phil Lynott samdi það til nýfæddrar dóttur sinnar. Á plötunni Shades of a Blue Orphanage er líka lag sem heitir Sarah, en það fjallar um ömmu Lynotts. Thin Lizzy varð til í Dublin á Írlandi fyrir 50 árum, árið 1969 þegar skólafélagarnir, trommarinn Brian Downey og Phil Lynott byrjuðu að spila saman. Sveitin sendi frá sér 12 plötur á ferlinum og þekktustu lög Thin Lizzy eru líklega Jailbreak. The Boys are back in town og Whiskey in the jar, en Metallica hafði þeirra útgáfu sem fyrirmynd þegar þeir endurgerðu lagið fyrir 20 árum, en lagið er írskt þjóðlag. Thin Lizzy er enn starfandi og sá sem hefur verið lengst í bandinu er gítarleikarinn Scott Graham sem gekk til liðs við Lizzy 1974. Brons stytta af Phil Lynott í fullri stærð var reist í Harry Street í Dublin árið 2005. Óskalagasíminn verður opnaður (5687-123) um kl. 20 og hér er lagalisti kvöldsins: Sign - Dancing in Thin Lizzy - Do anything you want to (plata þáttarins) The Cult - She sells sanctuary The Smiths - Bigmouth strikes again Wilco - Handshake drugs Band of Horses - First song Stafrænn Hákon - Rafall Ash - Evil Knievel The Raconteurs - Sunday driver SÍMATÍMI The Beatles - Come together Hórmónar - Kynsvelt Mötley Cure - Kickstart my heart (óskalag) Thin Lizzy - Waiting for an alibi (plata þáttarins) Vintage Caravan - Set your sights Black Sabbath - Children of the grave Deep Purple - Speed king Led Zeppelin - Stairway to heaven RHCP - Under the bridge The Hellacopters - Gotta get some action - now!
