@@grrwuff4099 I always speak up for younger people and their new music, but I was in high school in the 80s, and that was a sad, difficult time for me too. I never though rock would die. It hasn't died, but it's gone from mainstream music for sure. A Flock of Seagulls, Tears for Fears, Howard Jones, nothing wrong with that music, but for a rocker, it was death. Grunge and metal lived on, but they were very narrow genres. My favorite music was gone from the charts, but that meant I had to create my own music. As musicians, it's ok, as long as we don't expect the pop world to like us.

@@beenaplumber8379I respectfully disagree. For example, if you mention, Dancing In The Moonlight, this band should immediately come to a serious music listener’s mind, but it’s not. They instead think of think of King Harvest’s version of a song with the same name but it’s a totally different(literally speaking) and inferior song. 99 out of 100 people stopped on the streets of hipsterville between 40 and 70 would not say “Tin Lizzie” if you asked who sang it. I think the reason that Thin Lizzy’s music is under appreciated is they simply lack an iconic catalog. The Stones have a million b-sides that never get heard on the radio and those songs are top tier songs and the reason they get the accolades. People would buy the album and surprise it has ten great songs on it (see Exile in Main Street). And that’s what separates them from TT. Led Zeppelin has a huge catalog, the Beatles, Grateful Dead, Doors, The Clash, and so on. That’s the difference I believe. Then again, I may not have any idea wtf I’m talking about. 😮
@beenaplumber8379Ай бұрын
@@iantollefsen343 When I think of Dancing in the Moonlight I think of Grace Vanderwaal. A lot of time has passed, and we move on. That doesn't mean the bands whose deep cuts now elude us went underappreciated. I doubt I would recognize the names of more than 2 songs on any given Stones album either. Everybody knows The Boys Are Back in Town and Jailbreak, many know Whisky in a Jar and Cowboy Song, and others. Thin Lizzy were giants, and people loved them! People knew who they were, and people now at least know they were a major, highly successful rock act back in the day. Do they remember Argent? Golden Earring? Focus? We get old, we forget things, but when we hear the music, we still remember it, and it makes us feel good. Thin Lizzy got the greatest recognition: Packed arenas, high record sales, and heavy airplay on both pop and rock radio. That doesn't happen when a band is underrated. It only happens when they have achieved massive success. In YT comments, people don't mean underrated when they use that word. It either means "I only just learned of them" or "I like them so everyone else should too, or else they're stupid." Often it means "Music was objectively better when I was a teenager," whenever that was. (We weren't all teenagers at the same time, so that can't be objectively true.) It's all usually self-centered commentary, not a true statement that some artist actually did not receive the recognition they deserved. Thin Lizzy was not as big as the Rolling Stones. Go figure. I like them more than I like the Stones, but that's subjective taste. It doesn't mean either deserved more or less credit than they got. It's my taste, which is a much more honest thing to say than they were underrated. I remember the 70s, and I know they weren't. They fell off the charts, quit making music, and Phil died. The critics have moved on.

Cowboy Song Thin Lizzy I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail A starry night the campfire light The coyote call And the howling winds wail So I'll ride out to the old sundown I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail Lord I'm just thinkin' about a certain female The nights we spent together ridin' on the range Lookin' back it didn't seem so strange Roll me over and turn me around Let me keep spinnin' till I hit the ground Roll me over and let me go ridin' in the rodeo I was took in Texas I did not know her name Lord all these southern girls they seem the same Down below the border in a town in Mexico I got my job bustin' broncs for the rodeo Roll me over and turn me around Let me keep spinnin' till I hit the ground Roll me over and let me go runnin' free with the buffalo (Here I go) Roll me over And I'll turn around And I'll move my fingers Up and down Up and down It's okay amigo Just let me go Ridin' in the rodeo Roll me over and turn me around Let me keep spinnin' till I hit the ground Roll me over and let me go ridin' in the rodeo Roll me over and set me free The cowboy's life is the life for me Composers: P. Lynott, B. Downey

I was lucky enough to meet them. A friend of mine used to jam with Thin Lizzy here in Tulsa. And back before Phil passed away they came to Tulsa to see Kenny and we all went to the bar. They just didn't want me to tell everyone who they where they just wanted to party and have a good time. So that's exactly what we did. There a awesome bunch of guy. Wish I could see them all again. Fly high Phil see you on the other side brother. Trooper

Phil is loaded live. And yet he brought it for every show! He was always wasted and left us to soon! It finally caught up with him, the booze and the smack, so sad. RIP Mr. Lynott ~

1982 Germany, Nuremburg, Monsters of Rock, still got the pic of him in the album, It was close to one of his last concerts, so many bands at 20 bucks total, open air concert and the sound mix was good too. Rest peacefully Phil, you were exceptional as you blazed by us...

Many of us couldn't have been at concerts back then (in Germany, as Germans), but damn we had the best live concerts in the 80s in our country (Lorely and Essener Gruga-Halle), via TV. I was at everxy TV Concert at the" Rote Punkt" in Freiburg, South Germany. Mani!, you made it happen!! Zottel and all the Gang! Best times ever! Wir bleiben ewiglich vebunden....

I was visiting Ireland on vacation and wandered into a record store in Limerick to see a large black & white head shot of Phil Lynott situated over the entrance.
