Thank you for uploading. They all seem so humble and down to earth. I think if Brian Robertson stayed on (and Scott in later years), Thin Lizzy would have become the best band ever.
Scott Gorham had some great hair! Darren Wharton looks like he just started high school and Snowy White looks like he would rather be somewhere else. Phil always oozed charm in every interview I've seen. I miss him so badly. I can't help but wonder over all the musical directions he would have went if he lived. He wasn't just a Thin Lizzy frontman/rockstar.
Thats awesome! What yr was that moon! Stupid question what brand did he have? Im a Lizzy and Phil fanatic! Love to hear about the conversation but ill let that be your treasured memory!🤘
I won't have anything said against Sue Cook. She said what she was told to say and the band were quiet and respectful. Some commentators here need to remember this was 43 years ago. Times and attitudes were different.
Philip Parris Lynott (West Bromwich, Inglaterra, 20 de agosto de 1949-Salisbury, Inglaterra, 4 de enero de 1986) fue un cantante, instrumentista y compositor irlandés, conocido por ser el bajista, cantante principal, compositor, líder y fundador del grupo de rock irlandés Thin Lizzy.
Nationwide was actually a very interesting programme & I'm sure Sue Cook was not meaning to be rude or derogatory about Phil in any way. I think she might well have known Caroline & the Crowther family? I think Renagade is a fantastic album & doesn't deserve the bad impression some people have of it. Nationwide had a very wide variety of guests on it. I vividly remember Paul Weller being interviewed a year later in 82 just prior to the break up of The Jam, that is also on RUclips. Interestingly The Jam actually supported Thin Lizzy once way back in1975!
This interviews sounds like a bigot. Asking that are you first black or Irish question. Love Lizzy! Scott seems really mellow, stoned. I'd be stoned too if i had to be listen to her!

@Breno Baptista calm down aspergers an Irish woman is obviously “Caucasian” lol you don’t have to say that 💀 and no he didn’t suffer bad racial abuse in England
@Breno Baptista given you had to say Caucasian in brackets after Irish, and stress that his black father was from South America when no one cares plus the region Guyana is most associated with is the Anglo-Caribbean despite being on the mainland, you’re not the smart guy you think you are. He’s half Irish.
@Breno Baptista the mixed guy is nothing to do with South America or the Caribbean other than his father’s heritage (which is described as Afro-Caribbean, not SA) and no, stating there are Africans in South America and culture or whatever does not make you smart. My point is you have aspergers and say the most unnecessary and weird things, then think you’re smart bringing up world regions and cultures and asking if I studied them 💀 irrelevant, he wasn’t racially abused and is just mixed, all your ramblings have little to do with him, I’m right.
I think you'd need to be a very hardcore Lizzy fan to be able to identify "at least ten different styles" in their music. For 99% of people, they were always basically a standard hard rock band, with more good tunes than most of their contemporaries. And BBC's "Nationwide" was an early evening news and entertainment show, and probably the last place you'd expect a searching, in-depth interview. It was the kind of show that bands with a new album to sell would appear on for a bit of good publicity.
So obviously didn't know anything about them and didn't talk or refer to new editor guitarist Snowy or original member Brian! Typical mainstream filler...

This sounds more like a group counselling meeting than an interview with a rock band!😁
Anyone who uploads a rare Thin Lizzy interview GETS MY SUB !!!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH 😊😄
I love listening to Philip and Thin Lizzy . Thin Lizzy one of the best teams rock of all time . Let's remember that .👍🤘🤘🎸🎶
Phil ya legend 🇮🇪🇮🇪

Wharton was 17 when he joined Thin Lizzy. He’s probably 18 here.
@@thefonzkiss He started looking more comfy being in the band around 82. Check out Philip Lynott " Growing Up" Casablanca 82
@@thefonzkiss he was 19 and he would be 20 here
LoL
You would ever ask about about someone being black today that was out of order during that interview, Phil handled it well
Slightly disappointed that Phil didn't acknowledge Brian Downey as a founder member too.
Get over it
Was a really nice guy many moons ago in st Anne's park remember having a smoke with him RIP phil ❤
Thats awesome! What yr was that moon! Stupid question what brand did he have? Im a Lizzy and Phil fanatic! Love to hear about the conversation but ill let that be your treasured memory!🤘
@@nathueil1 it was so long ago late 80s and they use to call it zero zero
Just reading your reply and realised you asked me what brand 🤣 when I said having a smoke a joint I ment 🤣 long time ago really nice guy
😂 Gotcha thats awesome! Thats my preferred brand as well!!
Aye! Raheny . he had a house in Howth that backed onto claremont beach
Sue looking very nice in knee high boots.
Pervert alert!!!
Darren and Snowy should've never been in Lizzy. When Robo left Phil should have got clean like Scott.
No. Renegade's a great album and they both contributed to that.

Phil's 34th anniversary today...
@Ultan Gunn I was thinking the same thing, which reiterates the sorrow at the waste of his talents.
Lads , it was Sue on Nationwide , teatime TV , nobody expected an NME or Rolling Stone interview.
Strange questions she was out of her depth,,,,coolest Brazillian Irish man ever,,,love you Phil
He was West Indian (Caribbean) and Irish…

The racial questions are so embarrassing. He answered them his whole life.
Is it just me or does everybody look 8 feet tall in the medium close? That'd be great. Fun thought: maybe giants were also rockers!
This damn interview was about questioning his race not the music. What a waste of an interview. Scott was so kinda pissed, with a smile.
This interviews sounds like a bigot. Asking that are you first black or Irish question. Love Lizzy! Scott seems really mellow, stoned. I'd be stoned too if i had to be listen to her!
Hallelujah Philo it ‘tis all BOLL (we say 🐂 💩 “across the pond”). This is what we all call “CHARISMA”. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The black thing is so weird how she asks, just listening to this lad youd know hes as irish as he can get
He knew he was black
I'm mixed race it was my birth mother wish I go to a Roman Catholic Irish family my late mum adopted me at 6 wks old my dad is Walsh my mum was born in Waterford she left when she was 15/16 yrs old I Tel people I'm half Irish because my come from Waterford and my kids no they got Irish blood in them and now with my grandson his mum Tel s him he has Irish blood in him to because is nanny look out for him my first love with rock music is AC DC and then thin Lizzy I grow up in a all Irish house hold my cousin s one loved DC and the other thin Lizzy
Alan partridge ,has sue cook pulled out😂
Should have Sacked her stupid questions about are you first black then Irish Phil handled it well though what a Legend he and the boys are
But back then was really something a silutely unusual to be black AND Irish!- This question for very normal for those times...
This is why Phil should have just done all the interviews himself. The others are clueless.
They looked so unnatural here. The way she comes out randomly with being "half black ". Geez. Everyone looks so un comfy
He was Irish.He wasn't part Irish
Technically was
@Breno Baptista calm down aspergers an Irish woman is obviously “Caucasian” lol you don’t have to say that 💀 and no he didn’t suffer bad racial abuse in England

@Breno Baptista “legally” is just citizenship of a state, irrelevant to ethnicity

Scott's spaced out
The hair
Brian Downey looks pissed off.
The smackipoos years
The captions are always so so wrong on every video I've seen 🤦🤦🤦
Who sits left directly beside scott gorham? Please answer me somebody who knows
Snowy White, guitarist.
Thin Lizzy covered at least ten different styles. Very eclectic band. That's a shallow interviewer.

Nationwide was a very 'shallow' TV programme back then. It was for everybody kids, grans etc. It was a breakthrough just to have a hard rock band on!!
He was talented and beautiful but the drugs destroyed him
Awe yes I know, shame
Darren Wharton looks shit scared lol!
So obviously didn't know anything about them and didn't talk or refer to new editor guitarist Snowy or original member Brian!
Typical mainstream filler...
Shes a dope!😮
