Thin Lizzy - Cowboy Song

[@krakatoa1200]

I was driving back from Yorkshire in my lorry, really depressed and wondered where my life was headed, I had 'Lizzy' on a cassette tape, and when "Cowboy Song" came on, it cheered me up no end, and things didn't seem so bad afterwards.

[@didiervidry7687]

The same expérience when i have been a remover. A lorry,a radio cassette and THIN LIZZY.....back to Dordogne direction bordeaux....

[@robertrowe8531]

in 1983 while i was hangin out in germany, i went to this concert called monsters of rock at the zepplinfeld in nuremburg, 9 bands total, one of them was thin lizzy....was downfront at the stage the whole time, this was also the last time gary moore was with them on that tour. I still have the ticket stub from that gig

Was there also, actually got a photo of Phil on stage with my POS camera I had. It was one of the last time he would play close to his passing, He was good..

[@TerrenceHewittCMA]

damita Smith I love it, obviously You didn't, and neither did I, we have to remind people sometimes that we (our people) have been about music since we arrived here in ships against our will, but singing anyway. We have continued to make, create, and revolutionize music ever since. I am grateful to Little Richard, Bo Diddley, and Chuck Berry for Getting this party started Right, and also groups Like Living Colour for continuing with pride and style.

[@TerrenceHewittCMA]

damita Smith One day people will understand that we have to live together or we all will suffer. Music is just one way to bring some togetherness to this world, until then "keep hope alive and keep rockin".

Brilliance..sheer Brilliance!!! Ive seen Lizzy play in my home city of Newcastle Upon Tyne in England, at the City Hall & although not a huge venue.. Bands love playing there as it was built in Victorian times specifically for sound! So it has a quality hard to define but bands say its one of the best places to play because of the sound quality & how it reverberates like a Boomerang Seeing Thin Lizzy play there about 6 times all told & they were even better live than on a recording, just outa this world Phil will never die in the hearts & souls of musicians & fans everywhere...

Definitely underrated. You request a Thin Lizzy song on the radio (don't specify which) and I'd bet about 99 times out of 100 it would either be The Boys Are Back In Town or Jailbreak because none of their other songs get any play time. I would say in no particular order my favorite 3 Thin Lizzy songs are this one, Whisky in The Jar, and Boys Are Back In Town.
