  • On November 18, 2021 Long Play Music Films will finally release in Australia director Emer Reynolds’ much anticipated award-winning film about Thin Lizzy front man, Phil Lynott: Songs For While I’m Away, which features thoughts from U2’s Adam Clayton, Metallica’s James Hetfield, Suzi Quatro, Huey Lewis, Midge Ure, and of course guitarist Scott Gorham. A few months ago on Phil Lynott’s birthday, Australian Musician editor Greg Phillips spoke to Thin Lizzy guitarist Scott Gorham about the documentary and his life with Phil and the band. #AustralianMusician

      One of my guitar heroes when I picked up a guitar in 1978 and decided on Gibson Les Paul due to that heavy sound they had. Cool dude...looks like an old Dutch sea captain now, and he still play great live.

      Scott has always been one of my guitar “heroes”, as is Brian Robertson. I’ve been a fan of the band since I first heard The Boys Are Back In Town back in the 70’s. I remember buying Live And Dangerous when it came out in 78. I just got the 8 cd reissue of it the other day and it’s utterly amazing!
      All the best and have a great holiday season!

      No, not at all. You're dealing here with someone who's pretty comfortable in their own skin and is probably more than aware that white and grey are just two colours; nothing more. And it also works for women: look at Emmylou Harris and Judy Collins. Of course in all three cases being exceptionally good looking in the first place does help somewhat.
