INSPIRATION...

Here a Thread to talk about John's most loved rock band ever: THIN LIZZY.

Have you ever listened to them?
I do, i really love TL, and I can't let pass a day without listening to Phil's voice...
And more, great guitar players...Do you want some names? Scott Gorham, John Sykes, Gary Moore, Brian Robertson...


Absolutely a Rock legend...


Here's a site with all you need to know about THIN LIZZY:

Enjoy the visit..(and the listening!!))

Oh Andrea, you're right....ABSOLUTELY A ROCK LEGEND!!
"...there are bands that soundtrack a moment in time and then fade away ingloriously. Then there are those that, long after their demise, retain a sense of immortality..."
Phil was a poet....a wonderful poet!!! His songs are something of incredible....
"....this is hard rock music played with heart and, more importantly, with SOUL"
The guitar players...some of the best!!! ...and their exhibitions???...FANTASTIC and FULL OF ENERGY!

OHH! Thin Lizzy!! I love them too! I have actually not been a long-time Thin Lizzy fan (knowing that they are John's favorite band got me interested...and hooked!), but Phil was a genious.

RIP Phil. You are very missed!!

I also got into Gary Moore and he is an amazing guitar player! Also Scott Gorham, Brian Robertson, etc. They are so awesome.
