Phil Lynott - Bad is Bad (Better Sound Unreleased)

Unreleased from 1978 Gary Moore Guitar & Scott Gorham Guitar Mark Nauseef on Drums and Huey Lewis On Harp with Phil Lynott Bass & Vocals. Huey Lewis based "You Crack Me Up" on the various people he had encountered at the parking lot of Uncle Charlie's. A bar the band used to play at frequently before they hit it big. Lewis wrote "Bad is Bad" in the late 1970s while working with Phil Lynott and Thin Lizzy. Lynott liked the song so much that he would sing it at some of his concerts in a fast pace.

Brilliant lynott

[@stuartpearson2993]

Where has this song been hiding it's fantastic

[@jackbeam56]

Dave Edmunds did also a very good cover of it.

[@lamnag01]

The esteemed Messrs. Lynott + Rory Gallagher played this at the Puncherstown Festival in '82

[@kevinsenquiz8735]

His relationship with huey goes way back. He's on live and dangerous! His band Clover supported Lizzy in Europe on that tour. Graham Parker also.

Huey Lewis and the News recorded a version of this song for their 1983 album Sports, which was excellent too. The song was written by Alex Call, John Ciambotti, Sean Hopper, Lewis, John McFee, Michael Schriener.

[@jackbeam56]

I like the Dave Edmunds cover too :-))

[@timekeeper1715]

Huey Lewis actually wrote this song in the late 1970's. Way before the News was around. Not trying to be mean, just helping with some history! :)

[@jimmayors2315]

@@timekeeper1715 Why do you think you might come off as sounding mean? The song was written by a list of folks, none of whom are in the band "The News". Just saying it was finally recorded by Huey Lewis and the News on their 1984 album.

[@BookClubDisaster]

@@jimmayors2315 The "list of folks" is the group Clover. Which was Huey Lewis's first band. Since I think he was the primary songwriter, he likely wrote the bulk of it.

[@jimmayors2315]

@@BookClubDisaster Didn't know anything about Clover. Thanks!

[@twilightatireland]

Sounds more like Downey than Nauseef.

[@kaiala1271]

Its Downey all right!!!

[@dirrello97]

Definitely BD counting in

[@Peter-vd9wi]

When is the box set with unreleased thin Lizzy songs coming?

[@Nk-zd3xj]

Hope this is not a rumor.

[@dirrello97]

Too bad this isn't included in the boxset.. guess its not technically thin lizzy

[@tsunchoo]

Is this Brian on drums? - can't get enough Lizzy

[@stigviig8265]

According to the description it's Mark Nauseef, but it sounds a lot like Downey!

[@ahfrdz]

Massive 'Lizzy supporter but i think this song is much more suited to Rory Gallagher

[@dirrello97]

That'd be great to hear
