Asked what it felt like to be black and Irish, Philip replied: "Like a pint of Guinness!"

[@peterfitzpatrick7032]

He was black... He was Irish... He was EPIC... I met him, cool dude to hang with but eventually the drugs did for him, he died WAY too early Miss ya Phil 😎👍☘️🍺🍺🍺🍺

We don't drink a beer here we don't we don't hardly do that cuz we got some some of that Mountain Dew from a mountains you know who I'm talking about I mean you don't go in the grocery store and get this this do You Know What I Mean Gene

Phil Lynott was one of the greatest songwriters of all time. He was a storyteller in the classic Irish sense.

"There are a lot of people I've known who have died in the music business. Phil Lynotte is probably the only one that I truly miss." -Lemmy

[@RolandDeschain1]

@@paulnettles9109 Billy Connolly felt the same way. In one of his shows he goes to Phil's grave and talks with his mother. And there's anew documentary about him on the way.

Phil was awesome!! Too bad the drugs took their toll on him. RIP Phil.

When music was real music !!!! The 70’s and 80s

[@allensaunders449]

Always a comment like this. Real music still exists. But you would rather complain then search. Try the warning tons of live material on you tube. Best rock band to appear in years 3 piece

[@blacky2739]

Allen Saunders I understand that there’s still great music out there mate ! Being a guitarist myself I hear it everyday but nothing compares to those eras? Will there be another Hendrix , Black sabbath, Deep purple , Elvis or Rolling Stones , Kiss etc???

Phil Lynott, Thin Lizzy's leader wrote a bunch of great rockers but he also wrote great romantic slow songs and ballads... that contrast is what I like from him, he could play the tough guy in his songs but also the cool dandy. What a phenomenal talented man he was, he got a statue in Dublin, but every city in the world should have a Phil Lynott statue celebrating his charisma and greatness

[@tazjammer]

He sure did, and sure does have a statue in Dublin. RIP the late, great Phil Lynott.

[@GinMae]

I saw Thin Lizzy back up Queen in Kalamazoo, MI in January 1977 -- Phil Lynott was MAGNETIC - my BFF and I were the b/c we are obsessed with Queen - and met the band briefly at the Holiday Inn across the parking lot -- (long story, and ALL cool guys dealing with awkward teens - but that's not entirely relevant) -- what I wanted to say was that Thin Lizzy came out BLAZING - and especially PL -- I have not seen videos since that showed as much of his charismatic performance (he almost distracted me from my 16-yr-old crush on Brian May -- well, for a second, anyway:) - this was the coolest guy EVER -- when we saw him, he had that bass slung down around his KNEES... - RIP Phil -

[@RolandDeschain1]

Thin Lizzy's 'tender jams' were just as amazing as their rockers.

[@mjg123mg]

Died too young people also forget his brilliant bass on war of the worlds

[@danielolson5378]

Thin Lizzy as a band and as musicians are in my opinion underestimated. Phil was more than a songwriter he was also a poet. Don't think there are too many songwriters like Phil who was very open about everything he struggled with.

[@finhyland4270]

Phil is an icon in Ireland,there is a statue on Grafton Street In Dublin of him. R.I.P Phil

[@sarahbourke8203]

My favorite band, named after a beautiful song of theirs called my Sarah! so proud to be Irish ☘️

"The Boys" were a motorcycle gang that visited his Mom's bar every year when they came thru town.

@Deveroth The first poster is a bit closer but it was DJs in America who linked to Vietnam veterans when they played it when first released in America

[@sharonkay8638]

Deveroth the band were from Dublin, so I don’t think there would be many Vietnam vets there! Phil Lynott was so charismatic on stage and was famously louche, with a like it or lump it attitude. He wrote a beautiful song Sarah for his daughter, you should check it out together with Cowboy song. Gone to soon.

[@johncallaghan3007]

The boys are gangsters (The QS) in manchester, they used to drink in in the pub managed by Phil Lynotts mother in the late 60,s and 70's

[@okey2cokey]

Phil's mum (Philomena), ran a B&B in Whalley Range, Manchester for 14 years. (The Clifton Grange). That's where the Boys, a loose collection of 1970's Manchester criminals known as "The Quality Street Gang", used to meet up along with a few local celebs like Georgie Best etc. Dino's Bar & Grill was just off Whitworth St, a few yards away from The Europa club which I use to frequent in my youth...……...That's it, take it from a Manc

[@jahdonkey]

amazing song

[@mikecomstock1602]

I was a US Army tanker. After coming in from the field and washing our ass we could hit the bars. This was sort of our company song. 170 or so young men home for the first time in a long time. The boys are back in town!

[@keithorlandini4919]

Phil Lynott (1949-1986) , who wrote "The Boys Are Back In Town" and most of Thin Lizzy's most popular material as well as some interesting solo albums, sang lead and was the group's Bassist. He died of liver disease at only 36 years of age. He was a legendary heavy drinker. A statue of him was erected in his irish hometown. Lynott's father was black and his mother was a white, Irishwoman. although he made his mark in his short life, he might have achieved so much more if he had had a normal llifespan of say 78 to 80 years.

[@bloodnock9966]

Love the "Get your knickers down" bit. lol

[@agdgdgwngo]

Phil Lynott one of the coolest people ever to live.

[@chuckaspegren5528]

You got that right...him and Jimi!

[@MBE-ib3jy]

Phil was born to be a rockstar, he hired limos as soon as he could afford them, years before most even knew what a limo was. Watch his moves, all current stars since have emulated him, few have matched him.

[@personalcheeses8073]

What a great band they were

A "Thin Lizzy" is a very thinly rolled joint. My wife and I saw Thin Lizzy live about 10 times, they were a great band to see. And yes I'm showing my age, we also saw Queen 5 times. My Oldest daughter blames me for sort of naming our youngest grand daughter 3 years ago. When I held her for the first time I started sing the Thin Lizzy song "Sarah" to her, Phil Lynott wrote that to his own daughter, oops. When I was in the Royal Marine Commandos, we would get back from a posting and all you could hear was "The boys are back in town" coming from all the PA speakers at the Barracks.

Spent many a great night with Phil and the Boys (Thin Lizzy ) in the Baggot Inn in Dublin and up in the Dandelion Market on Sundays afternoons. He was so good looking the camera's couldn't do him Justice . He talked about his Granny all the time . We were a few girls and Lads from Ringsend where you see him walk down the PIER and he played the Trumpet in our local park . It was called Herbert Park . The river you see him on is the Liffey in the video called old town .I am now a Grandmother and still play his music as do my kids and now my Grandchild sings one of his songs called (Whiskey in the Jar) I wish you'd give it a play . It's an amazing song . @

One of my fav rock songs ever

[@bluetopguitar1104]

A great band. Their breakthrough tune in America. Great tunes, great playing. Phil lynott's mom was irish,his dad was an African American soldier. Supposedly the song was originally titled " GI Joe is back in town. Unfortunately the L.A. lifestyle got to Phil, he developed an addiction problem that eventually took him too early. Tragic. Scott Gorham, one of the guitarists is still around and carries on the legacy of the band. He' had a big friendship with Phil.

Damn, Lizzy were awesome live. Out of many, many gigs I've attended over a frightening long time, I still remember vividly seeing Lizzy at the Dominion Theatre in London in 1982. I also remember hanging around the stage door afterwards and, albiet briefly, meeting Phil and Scott. I feel very lucky indeed.

[@davek6949]

This wasn't the classic lineup that recorded the song but still very good. The guitarist on the left side of the stage was Jon Sykes who would go on to be part of the Whitesnake lineup that would record that band's classic self-titled best-selling album in 1987.

Let me help you put some pieces together about this amazing band fronted by incredible bassist/vocalist Phil Lynott (RIP brother). You might remember a guitarist/singer named Gary Moore. Well, he was a member of Thin Lizzy as was the amazing Jonathan Sykes, guitarist for a band called Whitesnake (the blonde guy in this video).

Phil's mom owned a hotel & pub in Manchester that was a haven for the band in their early days and also frequented by various footballers and low brow types.
