Nice takes but Phil Lynott was lead vocalist, in addition to writing and playing bass. Brian Robertson was the other guitarist, not Damon Johnson. Ricky Warwick and Damon Johnson were in a later version of the band, long after Lynott passed.
Don't worry, Darryl. I was already "that guy" with Mitch and Ken this morning. Apparently their Wikipedia was broken because Ricky Warwick was 10 years old when Jailbreak was released. No way he was hangin' down at Dino's then. Please forgive us. At EONS, we're 95% passion and 5% facts
I appreciate it Darryl. Not being familiar with Thin Lizzy (except for their hits) I did a quick wiki search. My bad, and thank you for holding us accountable.
Based on their two hits, Thin Lizzy has a serious case of taking themselves too serious. “. . . If the boys wanna fight you better let ‘em.” “Hey you, good lookin’ female. Come here.” Great crank it in the car when it comes on the radio once a year, though.”

Hate to be that guy but here I am being that guy.

I, for one, will not apologize for getting the singer's name wrong. Some say that it was a lie. I say that it was a Lynott.

Listen to 'Waiting for an Alibi", "Johnny", "Don't Believe a Word" and "Dancing in the Moonlight". Much less serious and equally good.
"Thin Lizzy’s lead singer and chief songwriter, Phil Lynott, is the Irish Bruce Springsteen."
At first glance, this seemed like the spikiest of takes. 2-3 paragraphs later, I was sold.
