    Those guitar harmonies of Scott and Snowy on the Chinatown album are really nice...by the time that the Renegade album came around, some of the guitar work was not so good..i think a lot of this was down to Scott because of his heroin addiction, i remember reading an article about Scott on that...

    Side A of Chinatown is excellent, but Side B is not so good...The track 'Killer on the Loose,' which was on the Chinatown album, was released as a single and on the B side of it was a song called 'Don't Play Around'..i really thought that should have made it on to the album, but it...

    Thin Lizzy live in 1981 when Snowy White was in the band..Snowy got a bit of stick at times when he was in Lizzy and unfairly i thought..He was never going to be another Brian Robertson or Gary Moore but he is a great guitarist and his solo here on 'Don't Believe a Word' is superb...8 min live...

    Great solo from Robbo in his Lizzy days on their track 'Johnny,'...as soon as you hear that brilliant wailing guitar you instantly know that it's Robbo...Best ever hard rock wah player for me.

    Lizzy on their Opium Trail - live in Toronto 1977...this track really should have made it on to their Live and Dangerous album, cannot believe that they omitted it.

    Thin Lizzy - Ballad of a Hard Man....a real gem of a Lizzy tune...this is what the band were all about for me, that hard drivin', hard pumping rock..Phil blasting out the vocals and with the brilliant Robbo on guitar, wailing like a complete maniac in the second part of the song, SUPERB!

    Thin Lizzy - Jailbreak....on the steps of the Sydney Opera House in 1978...Gary Moore in the band here after the departure of Robbo...and Mark Nauseef on drums, Lizzy drummer Brian Downey took a few months off coz of exhaustion and Nauseef filled in for him on Lizzy's tour down under.
