The fact Thin Lizzy isn't in the Rock N Roll hall of fame is pathetic !! Thin Lizzy was one of the greatest Rock n Roll bands and Phil was a great front man and deserves more respect... RIP Phil Lynott ...
@@kingseamas Thanks this song makes me think of my dad young in his prime with long hair and getting into trouble. He was such a good dependable man who would do anything for his family. He's a peace now, maybe at Dino's bar and grill 🍺👍
I was 13, in my back yard at night under the porch light, rebuilding a 10 speed bike from parts I bought from a scrap yard. I was listening to WQID FM Gulfport-Biloxi Mississippi station, when I heard that song for the first time. Brings back some great memories!
That's so 1970's. There was a time, when the bike industry was smaller, and you could build a bike from whatever parts you could get hold of -- everything fit with everything else. Not so much anymore.
Met Phil and the band when they were doing the college circuit. Absolutely great guys polite and articulate. Spent half an hour talking music and beers. A memory to cherish. Thanks Phil
An old boss of mine used to work as music critic and concert promoter. He told me a story once of reviewing a Journey show with Think Lizzy opening. This was either right before or right after Steve Perry joined Journey. Being in the Northwest we were a common stop for Journey coming up so they were pretty badly overexposed locally and didn't stand a chance against Thin Lizzy. After Thin Lizzy ended their set the audience was going nuts calling for an encore. The crew had started teardown, the band was in the dressing room cracking a few beers open. The audience wouldn't quiet down so Journey's road manager asked the band to go play a couple more songs to avoid a riot. After the show my boss went backstage to interview the band and hang out. He told Phil one of the songs he really liked from the new album was The Rocker. Phil replied with "I bet you a beer you don't even know it." My boss sang it to him (poor Phil's ears) and Phil being a man of his word went to some convenience store with my boss and bought a case of beer. They ended the evening watching Saturday Night Live seeing the first Star Trek sketch the show did.
Bro, there isn't a single song that makes me happier than this. The guitar harmonies make me feel so many emotions, it's amazing. One of the greatest (if not the best) songs ever written
Just listen to how great they were live guys, I can't name a single person in the past 10 years that are even half as great as these GET THEM IN THE HALL OF FAME❤❤
Brian Downey....brilliant rock drumming. So cool and relaxed in his style...overlooked by many and teamed up with Phils pumping bass lines what a powerhouse. Thin Lizzy did and will always rock with these songs.
Wow! I've never heard this live cut what a great band! very underappreciated in my opinion. Those harmonizing guitar parts, Phil's vocals all of it! just amazing! can't believe they're not in The Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame, absolutely astounding. Great showanship here, RIP Phil and Gary. Thin Lizzy will always live on in my heart. Dolores
I’m 51, and I imagine that all of these GREAT artist are in Heaven rockin’ out, just waiting for us to join them. Don’t get me wrong, I’m in no hurry to pass away, but I believe that Heaven awaits, and these folks will be there for us, and us for them….sincerely, from a Christian that believes God knows our hearts and wants the best for us! Eternity is going to be pretty cool.
Martin Cheeseman: He's most-definitely high up on my list of rock musicians to bring back from the dead were I to be blessed, or cursed, with that unholy gift.
I’ve never been a huge fan of them, but I’ve watched a lot of videos of them live. Their lead singer is totally one of those bass players who inspired people to pick up the instrument. The dude commands that instrument when playing, and manages to pull off all of his vocal parts.
@@barry8122 it’s my honest opinion. Bass guitar has been my main instrument for over 20 years. It’s the one that I am the most comfortable on. I enthusiastically took to it as a young kid. I’ve always seen limitless creative potential in the instrument, and I’ve always loved it’s multidimensional nature. When you get good at it, you learn it’s capabilities and just how difficult it is to play (when you’re venturing beyond the baseline effort that some people put into the instrument). It’s one of those instruments where I think it takes certain players to wake interested parties up to a real understanding of what it can do and what a good player can get out of it. This guy most certainly did that, and to be singing all of those vocal melodies while playing those parts displays a certain level of professionalism that I believe inspires people. Like I said before, I’ve never been a big fan of them. Their live record is the only album I’ve found that I enjoy, but it doesn’t change my opinion. I think the 70s was one of those eras where music producers and artists of the time understood the extent to which the bass guitar can be the “secret weapon” in a pop song. This guy got that, and he had the chops to put that ideology into their music.
Unforgettable memories listening to their radio show during summer of 78 while living in London with Live and dangerous high on the charts, bless 'em all.
Heartbreakingly underated and underappreciated. Only the hippest of music listeners really got the uniqueness, the great showmanship, the great songs that were a lot more complex than they sounded, the origin of harmony lead guitars and Phil singing and playing like he was born doing it! His flow was so natural and real. No fake posing, no airs...just real musicianship and songs. Sigh...Those really were the days...really.
As a singer, I can tell he was MUCH better than he's credited for… Not exactly technical showmanship, but just having a great voice and knowing what to do with it… (He was a singer before a bass player, though he's not bad on that lever either…)
Andre, your comment is one of the most concise, direct and "getting it" examples of true musical appreciation that I have read in a quite a while! Hope you are well and respect from 🇨🇦
@@pateris to me he was a " band" guy if you get my drift. Guys that loved playing together and creating a band sound, songs & show. Today's players are great. Great players for sure, great soloists, great technicians...but where is the band with original the songs, the show? Not all, but kinda in general...we've forgotten how to create a "great band" with their own great original songs, and stage show. Replaced by greatly evolved "single person playing" and singers, rappers and Jazz instrumentalists. That's my humble take on it anyway... don't mean to be pessimistic about today's players... I just miss the heartfelt unique, original songs of the "groups"...The Doobies, EWF in their heyday and so on...
Heard the song many times, but never seen the video. This is what makes CZcams absolutely great. And, if you know the feeling of the song's sentiment, then you must love it. Look at these guys!
This is the Phil Lynott/Snowy White/Scott Gorham/Darren Wharton/Brian Downey version of Lizzy. Behind the amps to the right you can just see keyboard player Wharton. The gig is from 1981. Still a decent live band at this point, and the material is bulletproof.
@@daktarioskarvannederhosen2568 Yes, the guy on the floor at 2:17 most certainly is Scott Gorham. I see several people talking about Gary Moore even though he’s not in the band at the time of this video. Moore was one of several different guitar players coming and going through the years unlike Gorham who was consistently in the band since he joined in 1974.
It saddens me that Snowy sold his Goldtop. Glad I got to see him play it at one of his rare London gigs with his own band, before they closed the Astoria
I'm so privileged to have my dad show me this on rides in the late 90's early 2000's ingraining it into my mind. It will stick with me forever and I'm so grateful.
This is a great driving song Turn It Up loud with the windows down. These were the best times no cell phone being stuck up in the crowd and blocking your view.
It was 1979, San Bernardino CA. at the Swing, they opened for Journey and blew them off the stage. It was a great show we were at the front on the rail. I will never forget seeing them!
Growing up in a beach town, this was the song that signaled summer/spring and Boys of Summer was the end of season/fall song. Must be the same boys running around in both songs ha.
As a guitar player having grown up with this band the coolest aspect (besides great songs and Phil's unique voice) was the twin lead guitars from Brian and Scott. It was Thin Lizzy that influenced me to incorporate the twin lead guitar motif wherever it was appropriate.
As a kid, I grew up in a community where it wasn't done to like black musicians. I would not accept these dictates. Phil Lynott absolutely blew my mind and exploded those mean, narrow-minded boundaries! He remains one of my great faves to this day. Rock on in heaven Phil!!!! 🐯🎸✨
feat. Snowy White ! November 2017 anyone here???? Phil Lynott was the balls behind Thin Lizzy for sure. so damn good band ... thanks for the post ... greetings from Berlin/Germany
Soy de México..y la primera vez que escuché ésta canción fue en el soundtrack de la película cuentos de caballeros..(2000)...se me erizó la piel!!!. Me emociona la rola
Phil Lynott mit Thin Lizzy, eine der Besten Hardrock Band aller Zeiten. Fantastisches Songwriting. Genialer Tween Gitarren 🎸 Sound. Und PhilLynott, s unvergesslicher Stimmklang. The Boys are back in Town, eines der stärksten Rock, n roll Songs überhaupt.
Hey this is really great footage of Phil and the boys. This looks like it was remastered. In my opinion, Thin Lizzy best Irish rock band as far as I'm concerned. I respect the other Irish Bands, but you know you what? You can keep U2,, Thin Lizzy was the greatest!! Thank you for posting this.
Such a perfect rock and roll song those were the days since my stroke 2 weeks ago I've been on my back although I did get up Sunday and walk on my own your body's like your mother when she's gone you don't get another one words to the wise be nice
Thin Lizzy a brilliant band one of the very best live bands of all time if they not in the Rock n Roll hall of fame there is something definately wrong they certainly deserve to be R.I.P. THE GREAT GARY MOORE @ PHIL LYNOTT AND THANKS FOR EVERYTHING MY FRIENDS.
I love Huey Lewis and the News’ live cover of this song, and you can really tell that they toured with Thin Lizzy by how faithful his version is to this live version. So great!
The fact Thin Lizzy isn't in the Rock N Roll hall of fame is pathetic !! Thin Lizzy was one of the greatest Rock n Roll bands and Phil was a great front man and deserves more respect... RIP Phil Lynott ...
HOF... what does Eddy Money think about that place?
Amen
It's a travesty!
c'est un groupe talentueux avec deux supers guitaristes Moore et Campbell
The hall of Fame is irrelevant
I started listening to Phil and Thin Lizzy in 1976 still listening 2024, not in the rock and roll hall of Fame , it's a damned shame 😢
Had this played at my dads funeral in February. My Dad was called Phil and he loved thin Lizzy. RIP Dad
Until you both meet again brother...
Sorry to hear about your father. Such a great song. Reminds me of getting into some kind of chaos or other as a kid...

Rip your Dad .🥺
Thank Phil for this Song 😃
Phil exuded that cool vibe. He had his demons, he paid for it, but he will never, ever be forgotten. He was a musician's musician.
What do u mean he had his demon's
@@Mikeplaysdbd his heroin addiction was the main one. It did him in.

Still listening in 2021, close to 2022. Awesome music is yearless
On my thumb drive whenever a trip short or long in my car...thank you!
Think that youll find thats not Gary Moore but Scott Goreham.
Peace that...So much potetentioanl
Who still listening in 2024🎙🎼🎵🔊🎸🥁💯👊🤟✌️♥️
One song that literally sums up a whole decade of Saturday nights.
Get your knickers down ,god I miss those days lizzy were the best saw them live it was pure magic
I need this damn song whenever winter lasts forever
Yezzir. We Lived to those tunes.
And that has to be one of the best descriptions of this song I've ever seen.
A decade? It's 2024 and this song STILL represents Saturday night. God willing it will always mean summer!
And we are still listening in 2021... one of the classic hooks of all time....R.I.P. Phil..
Thin lizzy pour la vie !!!!!!!!!
Till I die.
Any relation to Chris Wray?
In the mp3 rotation on my thumb drive...yes still loved as I drive central Fl.
Seriously, such a great band! Almost timeless. Sounds as good in the 2020s as in the 1970s.
One of the greatest songs of the entire 1970s.
True 👍
I agree, but I would say one of the best songs of all time. It's one of the songs that inspired me to play guitar!
Bro, there isn't a single song that makes me happier than this. The guitar harmonies make me feel so many emotions, it's amazing. One of the greatest (if not the best) songs ever written
A true Rock Band ! RIP !!!♥️♥️♥️♥️ They need to be in rock hall of fame !!!

Brian Downey....brilliant rock drumming. So cool and relaxed in his style...overlooked by many and teamed up with Phils pumping bass lines what a powerhouse. Thin Lizzy did and will always rock with these songs.
And the only constant member with Phil Lynott from their start until 1983. And then was a member when they reformed
There is a lot of swing in his drumming especially in this track.
Thin Lizzy was such a great band. Phil Lynott is a legacy and his music will live on forever....
Saw Thin Lizzy Open For RUSH......BEST CONCERT EVER They BOTH Were Steaming......
One of the best live-bands ever.
Peter Parnow: Make that one of the best and most under-appreciated rock bands of all time, period -- whether in-studio or live!
THE BEST!
This was a terrible live performance. The lead singer is off his face. Dragging his ass all over the place.
The very best live band ever. There isn't even a close second.
@@dontsaythetruthytwillkillu5784 Gonna have to hard disagree. Rush was one of, it not the best live bands in rock history.
This is pure raw talent that never dies. It lives on forever. Rip phil.
Culturally significant. The future generations will thank you for putting this on CZcams.
He was an amazing bassist. The band was so tight and this is such a positive song. Always a pleasant surprise when it comes on the radio

Phil Lynott was truly a great showman. Even though I wasn’t even alive when he was alive, his death makes me cry.
Awwwwww. Very well said.
I saw the Boys many times ☺
You and me, mate. I saw him live as a wee lad. A great singer, and who did "fusion" rock before everybody else, probably without even meaning to…
I’m 51, and I imagine that all of these GREAT artist are in Heaven rockin’ out, just waiting for us to join them.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m in no hurry to pass away, but I believe that Heaven awaits, and these folks will be there for us, and us for them….sincerely, from a Christian that believes God knows our hearts and wants the best for us! Eternity is going to be pretty cool.
Phil was a God who walked on Earth for a bit. Dude was born to front a band. So many memories of spinning Lizzy records.
U R sick.
Jail Break !! 😂
He sounds insanely good live. Like really, really, really good
Indeed. Can't imagine what it would've been like to see this live. His voice was amazing but to do it live like this...forget it.
And we're still rocking it in 2021!!!!
Phil Lynott, fabulous showman, great songs, such a shame he left the world so early.

As a guitar player having grown up with this band the coolest aspect (besides great songs and Phil's unique voice) was the twin lead guitars from Brian and Scott. It was Thin Lizzy that influenced me to incorporate the twin lead guitar motif wherever it was appropriate.
I was born in 92 and listen to the rock and metal of the 70s,80s,90s,2000s and 2010s,Thin Lizzy's Jailbreak is one of my favorite albums from 76
I don't know much about Thin Lizzy, but just from watching this I can tell you Phil is the only guy who could pull off having bass that high up.
Its the long legs
Lotz of heroin and coke for the aid
Billy Sheehan had his even higher back in the day. And nobody is gonna tell Billy how he should do it .
Mark King of Level 42 held his bass directly under his right armpit
And he concentrated on playing the middle of the fretboard too.
Absolutely fantastic footage. What a great band Lizzy was..
Most under-rated front man

@@abelmontalvo4052 In your opinion!
@@AngelMartinez-qs3cf yep your opinion my opinion we all have opinions how you doing?
Two Irish, one American, one Scot were the classic line up, I don’t know who the guitarists are

I SAW LIZZY LIVE IN 85 PERFECTION !!!! LET ME TELL YOU PHIL WAS PERFECTION !!!! I HAVE SEEN MANY BANDS LIVE BUT LIZZY WERE THE BEST !!!!
❤❤❤ PERFECTION❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of my favorite songs. They Rocked!
Phil was born to be a rocker... pure genius ....
I once threw a tire on a bonfire at a keg party in the middle of the woods while listening to this song.
Absolute quality. I can't get over Phil's talent. They don't make them like they used to..
Such a perfect rock and roll song those were the days since my stroke 2 weeks ago I've been on my back although I did get up Sunday and walk on my own your body's like your mother when she's gone you don't get another one words to the wise be nice
Thin Lizzy a brilliant band one of the very best live bands of all time if they not in the Rock n Roll hall of fame there is something definately wrong they certainly deserve to be R.I.P. THE GREAT GARY MOORE @ PHIL LYNOTT AND THANKS FOR EVERYTHING MY FRIENDS.
Don't know what to say, heard this song many years ago, like it then love it now...
Love me some Thin Lizzy
wonderful, thanks
I love Huey Lewis and the News’ live cover of this song, and you can really tell that they toured with Thin Lizzy by how faithful his version is to this live version. So great!
Huey said that Phil was the best front man ever when they used to open for them.
Not me. The shitty keyboard player sucks @$$
