33 Years today.

One of my musical heroes and Live & Dangerous will get a good blast today!

No love for Phil?

Phil was amazing. One of the best ever front men if you ask me. So sad that he died young but he left some fabulous music. A real rock and roll icon.

Ahh, forgotten this. 

I saw Thin Lizzy on my 15th birthday and was mesmerized by Phil . I saw him again with Grand Slam a few years later with Grand Slam and still was. In my memory the best front man I'd seen ( beating Freddie and Percy Plant). Great talent. And, of course, like all the best things from the West Midlands.

And now his mum, Philomena Lynott - her book/memoir on her son, 'My Boy' is a great read

RIP and you can now join your beloved son, Phil

Ahh, hadn't seen that. I haven't read her book but I've heard a couple of radio interviews and she was obviously quite active in promoting Phil's legacy and very proud of him. RIP.
