│║      Description :                                             ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        It’s a heavier approach we find Ireland’s finest        ║ │
│║        (sorry, U2) rock band swathed in on this effort,        ║ │
│║        having since dispatched guitarist Brian                 ║ │
│║        Robertson (injured in a bar fight, he’d later           ║ │
│║        gone to rattle cages briefly with Motorhead) in         ║ │
│║        favor of Gary Moore. The man’s speed, weight and        ║ │
│║        general all around breathtaking guitar abilities        ║ │
│║        could never be anything but a boon to any band,         ║ │
│║        and this wasn’t the first time Phil Lynott and          ║ │
│║        company had called on him to pinch hit. He’d            ║ │
│║        stepped into the breach on the Bad Reputation           ║ │
│║        tour, and here he is as a full-blown member of          ║ │
│║        the Lizzy lineup proper.                                ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        Material wise, it’s another straight shooting           ║ │
│║        collection of material that continues the band’s        ║ │
│║        ever upward spiraling legacy, although fewer and        ║ │
│║        fewer dollars were forthcoming despite the              ║ │
│║        overflowing art on display. A much thicker              ║ │
│║        guitar tone than previous is immediately evident        ║ │
│║        on “Do Anything You Want To,” a rumbling, bass          ║ │
│║        driven number that’s fun, but a shade formulaic         ║ │
│║        by Lizzy’s usually mould-busting standards. The         ║ │
│║        real heat arrives with “Toughest Street In              ║ │
│║        Town,” a tale of rough stuff in the city, fueled        ║ │
│║        by Lynott’s visceral visions, and Moore’s               ║ │
│║        relentless shredding. “Waiting For An Alibi” is         ║ │
│║        a great twin-guitar motivated number; featuring         ║ │
│║        some of the band’s most impressive six string           ║ │
│║        layering ever. “My Sarah” is a lovely tune              ║ │
│║        Lynott wrote for his young daughter, which is           ║ │
│║        hardly appropriate for snarling rock, so Lizzy          ║ │
│║        appropriately perform this one at half-mast,            ║ │
│║        with melodious solos aplenty.                           ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        By this time it must be admitted that the man           ║ │
│║        (Lynott) and the band’s drug addiction was on           ║ │
│║        the brink of seriously addling their collective         ║ │
│║        futures. Thus, the frankness with which said            ║ │
│║        addiction is confronted in “Got To Give It Up”          ║ │
│║        is startling, and would be downright morose, if         ║ │
│║        not for boasting some of the band’s toughest            ║ │
│║        riffs ever. It’s clear that whereas most rock           ║ │
│║        stars saw drug ‘n booze excess as their right,          ║ │
│║        Lynott saw it for what it was; a yoke he was            ║ │
│║        sadly not able to walk away from, right up until        ║ │
│║        his death. The far punchier and terse “Get Out          ║ │
│║        Of Here” is a humorous detour, and a real               ║ │
│║        relief, while “Roisin Dubh (Black Rose)” is             ║ │
│║        metal greatness galore. Lyrically recalling             ║ │
│║        “Emerald” from the band’s own Jailbreak, it’s           ║ │
│║        another journey into Lynott’s learned Gaelic            ║ │
│║        mind, and boasts some staggering incendiary             ║ │
│║        guitar work from both Moore and longtime Lizzy          ║ │
│║        accomplice Scott Gorham.                                ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        And so the Lizzy rampage rolls on, bloodied,            ║ │
│║        intoxicated and still in search of a sizable            ║ │
│║        audience. From here, there would be two more            ║ │
│║        albums (Chinatown and Renegade) of varying              ║ │
│║        quality and varying lineups (Moore would split,         ║ │
│║        not being able to handle the heroin, whilst             ║ │
│║        Snowy White and Midge Ure would have brief and          ║ │
│║        odd tenures with the band). But just as the             ║ │
│║        skies were darkest, the heavens crashed and             ║ │
│║        suddenly there was Thunder And Lightning. Go            ║ │
│║        directly to 1983, if you please, for Lizzy’s            ║ │
│║        crushing coda.                                          ║ │
