I simply LOVE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN ...RIP PHIL and Things We DO FOR LOVE.. GO ALL THE WAY.....

do you like the Thunder and Lightning album, that's my favorite.

I would love to know more about Phil and Thin Lizzy, aside from his hit songs I don't hear much info on him and his legacy.

10cc has two good songs that I hear frequently on the radio, I'm Not In Love and Reggae Party which surely doesn't define their career but are all I care about.

i'm nuts about 'i'm not in love'...it's total ear candy.

Love Lizzy and ABSOLUTELY ADORE Phillip Parris Lynott! My fav Lizzy album is Black Rose, I have them all though. I think after Black Rose, Lizzy started to lose steam, due to too many 'extra curricular activities' and changes in the band line up. Thunder and lightning was a bit of a comeback for Lizzy though. I also have Phils two solo albums. There are okish. 'Solo in Soho' the first one, is the better one. Phil also had a band called 'Grandslam' after Lizzy ended that did not get signed,there was some good material there from Phil.
When he died he had been working on a third solo album with Huey Lewis, who was a good friend of his. I have heard a couple of the tracks, not too impressed to be honest. Predictable mid '80's corporate rock.
