The guitar riff on Jailbreak is one of my all time favorite. Cowboy Song guitar riff is way cool too.

However to abbrevuate it. I saw Thin Lizzy with a group of 10 or so friends on a ski trip at. Killington in Vt. This was around 1979 or 80. We showed to early but they let us in. Anywho, we had a memorable event after helping the owners out with an issue, helped them toss some drunkin @$$holes ouf before the bouncers had arrived. Got to talk with the band a bit were setting up.

The full story will be in the memoirs of my misspent youth. They were great in that setting.

Every time they were touring either I had to work or they skipped the Pittsburgh/Wheeling area - or later, I was in the Air Force and couldn't go.

I regret it too. Thin Lizzy was great

I have several of his solo works from when he started playing hard blues rock. He has the amazing ability to sing and play lead at the same time.





Thanx for posting.
