Thin Lizzy - Here I Go Again (2024)

Irish hard rockers Thin Lizzy embodied several elements that set them apart from the pack in their time and have made them one of the more long-lasting influences and unique presences in rock music. Led by singer/songwriter/bassist Phil Lynott, they combined insightful and intelligent lyrics of the working-class experience with harmonizing twin-lead guitar attacks that punctuated both the sturdy construction and unexpected catchiness of the songs. Also, as a Black man, Lynott was an anomaly in the nearly all-white world of 1970s and '80s hard rock, and as such imbued much of his work with a sense of romanticized alienation; a self-styled poet of the lovelorn and downtrodden. Beauty, celebration, simple joys, and eternal questions all combined into something as unique as it was exciting on landmark Thin Lizzy albums like 1976's Jailbreak (which featured their international hit and calling card of a tune "The Boys Are Back in Town"), and they soldiered on into the '80s with increasingly musically complex efforts like 1983's Thunder & Lightning. Lynott died in 1986 at the age of just 35, but various iterations of Thin Lizzy regrouped as early as the late '90s, moving through the ensuing decades as a way to keep Lynott's songs alive and pay tribute to his legacy.
