Whisky In The Jar Thin Lizzy

Seymouro
This is one of the earliest Lizzy tunes.

Best St Patrick's day song, heard in played on Sirius XM.

Brian Downey (drums) and Phil are the only ones here from the later lineup. Gary Moore is in here but not playing lead. The leads are by Eric Bell. This was later covered by Metallica, they did on OK job but this is better- of course!

As much of a Lizzy fan as I always have been I did not realize that they were the only two from the later lineup. Makes sense now why it sounds so different. My favorite lineup was on the "Fighting" album. I loved the pairing of Gorham and Robo on guitar.

I heard that these guys weren't really even a rock band at first. They were playing like celtic stuff and switched over at some point.
