+----------------------------------[Notes]-----------------------------------+
|                                                                            |
|  Despite a huge hit single in the mid-'70s ("The Boys Are Back in Town")   |
|  and becoming a popular act with hard rock/heavy metal fans, Thin Lizzy    |
|  are still, in the pantheon of '70s rock bands, underappreciated. Formed   |
|  in the late '60s by Irish singer/songwriter/bassist Phil Lynott, Lizzy,   |
|  though not the first band to do so, combined romanticized working-class   |
|  sentiments with their ferocious, twin-lead guitar attack. As the band's   |
|  creative force, Lynott was a more insightful and intelligent writer than  |
|  many of his ilk, preferring slice-of-life working-class dramas of love    |
|  and hate influenced by Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and virtually all    |
|  of the Irish literary tradition. Also, as a black man, Lynott was an      |
|  anomaly in the nearly all-white world of hard rock, and as such imbued    |
|  much of his work with a sense of alienation; he was the outsider, the     |
|  romantic guy from the other side of the tracks, a self-styled poet of     |
|  the lovelorn and downtrodden. His sweeping vision and writerly impulses   |
|  at times gave way to pretentious songs aspiring to clich�d notions of     |
|  literary significance, but Lynott's limitless charisma made even the      |
|  most misguided moments worth hearing.                                     |
|                                                                            |
|  After a few early records that hinted at the band's potential, Lizzy      |
|  released Fighting in 1975, and the band (Lynott, guitarists Brian         |
|  Robertson and Scott Gorham, and drummer Brian Downey) had molded itself   |
|  into a pretty tight recording and performing unit. Lynott's thick,        |
|  soulful vocals were the perfect vehicle for his tightly written melodic   |
|  lines. Gorham and Robertson generally played lead lines in harmonic       |
|  tandem, while Downey (a great drummer who had equal amounts of power and  |
|  style) drove the engine. Lizzy's big break came with their next album,    |
|  Jailbreak, and the record's first single, "The Boys Are Back in Town." A  |
|  paean to the joys of working-class guys letting loose, the song           |
|  resembled similar odes by Bruce Springsteen, with the exception of the    |
|  Who-like power chords in the chorus. With the support of radio and every  |
|  frat boy in America, "Boys" became a huge hit, enough of a hit as to      |
|  ensure record contracts and media attention for the next decade ("Boys"   |
|  is now used in beer advertising).                                         |
|                                                                            |
|  Never the toast of critics (the majority writing in the '70s hated hard   |
|  rock and heavy metal), Lizzy toured relentlessly, building an             |
|  unassailable reputation as a terrific live band, despite the lead guitar  |
|  spot becoming a revolving door (Eric Bell, Gary Moore, Brian Robertson,   |
|  Snowy White, and John Sykes all stood next to Scott Gorham). The records  |
|  came fast and furious, and despite attempts to repeat the formula that    |
|  worked like a charm with "Boys," Lynott began writing more ambitious      |
|  songs and wrapping them up in vaguely articulated concept albums. The     |
|  large fan base the band had built as a result of "Boys" turned into a     |
|  smaller, yet still enthusiastic bunch of hard rockers. Adding insult to   |
|  injury was the rise of punk rock, which Lynott vigorously supported, but  |
|  made Lizzy look too traditional and too much like tired old rock stars.   |
|                                                                            |
|  By the mid-'80s, resembling the dinosaur that punk rock wanted to         |
|  annihilate, Thin Lizzy called it a career. Lynott recorded solo records   |
|  that more explicitly examined issues of class and race, published a now   |
|  -out-of-print book of poetry, and sadly, became a victim of his longtime  |
|  abuse of heroin, cocaine, and alcohol, dying in 1986 at age 35. Since     |
|  the mega-popular alternative rock bands of the mid-'90s appropriated      |
|  numerous musical messages from their '70s forebears, the work of Phil     |
|  Lynott and Thin Lizzy will hopefully continue to be seen for the          |
|  influential rock & roll it is.                                            |
|                                                                            |
|  In 1999, Thin Lizzy reunited with a lineup featuring guitarists Scott     |
|  Gorman and John Sykes, and keyboardist Darren Wharton, which was rounded  |
|  out by a journeyman rhythm section of bassist Marco Mendoza and drummer   |
|  Tommy Aldridge. The quintet's ensuing European tour produced the live     |
|  album One Night Only, which was released in the summer of 2000 to set     |
|  the stage for a subsequent American concert tour.                         |
|                                                                            |
