Thin Lizzy/Phil Lynott

I've never seen this act discussed on the org so i thought it was about time a thread was devoted to them. What i find remarkable about the band was that Lynott was a black man and was openly welcomed by a white audience, especially in a genre of hard rock(and it being the 70's) this was even more surprising. I never thought this band got the props they deserved and they're somewhat forgotten in terms the great rock bands that came out of the 70's. Anyone got any fave Lizzy songs?! mine are


Dancing In The Moonlight
My Sarah
Emerald
Waiting for An Alibi
