Late Night Lessons. Sorry mate but technically he was British as he was born in Britain. His parents nationality is irrelevant. Love the lessons though.
@@jkraft8655 Two dictionary definitions of nationality: (1) the status of belonging to a particular nation. (2) an ethnic group forming a part of one or more political nations. Dave was loosely half-correct only in the sense of the 2nd definition, meaning an ethnic group (ethnic black Africans) forming a part of one or more political nations (inclusively, all the nations contained in South, Central and North America). But, he wasn't correct in today's popularly used sense of the term, which is more like the first definition. I would agree that it is correct to say he was African-British, or just British, not African-American. That's probably a little pedantic. I love Dave's lessons!
Incredible band. Only saw them twice, both times in London in the 1970's (I can't remember the venue for the first gig but he second time was at the Lewisham Odeon, 14th December 1977). The line up on both occasions was Phil Lynott, Brian Robertson, Scott Gorham and Brian Downey. So good to be reminded just how great and influential they were. I am very lucky to have lived through that era and to have experienced them live. Thank you.
I hope this is the first of a 10 Part Thin Lizzy series!!! Seriously, the chords behind the verse of "The Boys Are Back In Town" are very colorful. Great fodder for "Chordplay".
It really was delightful. He had a similar tone and some some riffs reminded me of Santana during the same period. Ive got eight of their albums on vinyl and refuse to part with them.
It was actually Gary Moore who came up with the solo and played it on Nightlife, even if he was never credited for it. But Robertson definitely plays it beautifully on Live and Dangerous.
I've always loved Thin Lizzy. Chinatown is still one of my favorite albums. It was actually my brothers record and he got so sick of my playing the songs over and over as I was trying to learn them that he ended up telling me I could have it if I only played it if he wasn't around. One of the only benefits of sharing a room with an older brother! He was always picking up great albums from bands I'd never heard of and I got to get influenced by them.
Saw TL back in the 70s several times. Always great. Also Brian Downey was/is a great drummer. His work on Emerald is stellar. I love that Les Paul u have.
The Rocker! Love that song, I seen Thin Lizzy open up for Journey in Fresno, Ca in July of 79, They absolutely smoked Journey, Gary Moore's second to last concert with Thin Lizzy. One of my top three bands of all time.
Fantastic Professor Brew!! You need to do a part 2 for Thin Lizzy...exploring their guitar harmonies...Thin Lizzy is the gold standard for guitar harmonies!!
I saw Lizzy half a dozen times. They used to do the college circuit including a venue very close to where I lived in the Uk in the mid seventies. Very tight, great live act.
Thanks David for this great lesson. I saw them live in the Kings Hall in Belfast on the “Live and Dangerous” tour I think I was 16 - nearest thing to legends in our homeland - also saw Rory Gallagher a lot - blessed I am 😇
yes man i know what you mean.i saw them about 5 times including headline at Slane Castle and when people ask me what religion i am i tell them 'I'm A Rocker' : )
I'm from Ireland and live in Dublin, there's a full size statue of Phil on the street outside Bruxelles bar off Grafton St. here, in early days Lizzy used to rehearse in a room over Bruxelles. Wish the lock down would end so I could have a pint there or across in McDaids!
Dude, Johnny The Fox is one of my top 5 albums of all. Such good rock and roll with so much soul. The solo to Fool's Gold is so melodic and in the pocket. Thanks for this, Dave!!
🍺’ski the awesomeness continues! One of the most influential pre metal bands of all time. Scott Gorham is criminally underrated as a guitar player & writer. Of course Moore joining was legendary also. Then you add in Lynott who had the charisma of a true frontman like Scott, Roth, Ozzy, etc. Not necessarily the best voice but the cool factor! The band was a complete powerhouse & probably my favorite to imbibe rye too. As always 🍺’ski you rule!🤘
Love and Dangerous was the first album I ever bought, wore it out learning all the parts, good times, good memories. A covers band I was in at the time used to start with Are You Ready, certainly set the mood for the rest of the night! Loved this, thanks from the UK 🙂
Thanks for the woderfull insite into my ALL time favorite band. Been all over to see'em , such a shame Phil getting so ill that they never broke the USA.
Man I love Thin Lizzy. So good you did this video. I can't stand out a single guitarrist in that band because they were all so good, even if I love Sykes. I think the band in itself was bigger than the individual guitarrists specially due to the creativity of Phill Lynnott. His lyrics and melodies were, to me at least, the main driving force behind the band, which was embelished by every guitarrist in his own style. Please do a Pat Thrall video.
Very cool. I saw Thin Lizzy at Madison Sq Garden in 1977 opening for Queen. Gary Moore & Scott Gorham were fantastic .Been a fan ever since. Another song I always loved was Showdown. Cool chords with nice bends.
I really enjoy watching and listening to your videos. As someone who’s been playing for a long time I also enjoy the fact that you do not explain exactly what fret your on and what finger you’re using etc, Watching those types of lesson videos is like getting my teeth pulled out. Appreciate you man keep up the good work.
growing up in the ‘70’s Thin Lizzy was all over the radio but over time I forgot about them and oddly enough when watching an early vid of Guns and Roses at the Ritz in NYC seeing Axl Rose wearing and eventually tearing a Thin Lizzy tee shirt got me back into the band with a much deeper dive than before - Great Great Band. Thanks for another great vid !!!
Opium Trail, especially the live version. All of the Lizzy Catalog really. I lived in Europe when they were at the top. They were everywhere. It was a good time to be a fan.
Hey David. I remember jammin' to the Jail Break album at my friend's house, along with Kiss and AC/DC. This was about the time we were learning to copy songs to guitar on a cheap acoustic guitars. The action was higher than a kite and the gauges were enough to tear our fingers to the bone, but this lead to a more simplistic and comfortable transition to a real electric guitar. You're right about The Boys are Back in Town. That song has been beaten into the ground so much, it's turned to dust. LOL The thing I like about that song is the constant chord changes. It's not the boring, same old repeatable power chords we're so used to hearing. Thanks for this chord play. \m/
I can remember how sad I was when it came on the bbc news, back then, that lynot was dead. thin lizzy were one of my fave bands as a kid. I still listen to them once in a while now.
Done it again👍dancing in the moonlight,emerald,killer on the loose,even less renowned stuff,Hollywood,pressure will blow,love this band so much,great meeting sic n a great 'look',Bell n Downey still do gigs,seperately,thanks for another killer🤘
This is my new favorite channel. Song/riff analysis is exactly what I've wanted! Thank you for this great content! I would love some more Thin Lizzy and Testament!
This lesson was a long time coming and I didn't even know it! I'm ashamed to say that I didn't have any of their stuff back in the day. But I've revisited them big time since the turn of the millennium. Too many great songs to cover in just one lesson. Please feel free to do volumes II, II and IV! Everyone check out Gary Moores Live Tribute To Phil Lynnot...amazing! "The Legend Of The Black Rose" is highly recommended." Bad Reputation" was awesome. "I'm A Rocker" and "China Town" would be awesome lessons as well. Rock On!!!!!!!
With Thin Lizzy, it was more like you were gonna get in a fight IN the bar. Google the story of Robbo beating up Sid Vicious with his clog. lol LOVE LOVE LOVE LIZZY Please do a part 2 with some Moore and Sykes rhythms like Black Rose and Holy War.
Hell yeah! I love Thin Lizzy. I also loved Scott Gorhams band in the 90's 21 Guns. Robo and Gorham were amazing with their dual leads. Jailbreak, Renegade, and Johnny the Fox are amazing albums. It def. has that tough Irish bar fight sound to it. Angel of Death was a song that was way ahead of its time too.
You are killing it Dave👍your channel is just one notch behind hitting the lottery or an inheritance! 🤣 please keep it going brother, 'cause neither one of those are gonna happen🤘
Hey dave , i sat with the guys in 1975 /76 at electric ballroom in dallas , crazy story but they were all very quiet except scott Gorham , l.a. jets opened for t.l. great experience , anyway love your late night lessons , have learned so much man . Thanks Dave!!
Awesome lesson Dave. Thin Lizzy is an incredible band. Bad reputation, Fighting are my favorite albums. Jailbreak is awesome but absolutely overplayed. There will never be another. Loved those guy's. Thanks again!
I saw them a handful of times,Moore and Gorham,White and Gorham. My favorite is the lineup with Sykes and Gorham. But I love all their albums. Thanks for the lesson David.
Hi Dave great band. I saw them at winterland when I was a kid, great show great energy. I'm just really glad I got to see them. Maybe one day you can show us some of the leads...unison's...etc. and yea no worries about feeling a little lazy that day. Seems to me you deserve it, you can tell you work very hard.
Great lesson. You chose some great cuts. Not really chords, but Thin Lizzy was the first band to really nail the harmony guitar leads (Wishbone Ash as well), but Def Leppard and Iron Maiden took that element of Thin Lizzy as a main part of their sound. Definitely agree with you about the "toughness" of their riffs. They actually do a song called Toughest Street in Town which naturally features a dark/tough riff.
I always loved playing "Jailbreak" and "The Boys Are Back" in my late '80s cover band. They were part of our "Classic Rock" set. The songs were like 12 years old then.
Hey Dave, great to see you get around to Lizzy. I'm from Dublin so I was reared on Lizzy, saw them first time in 1975 on the Fighting tour. Nit pick time....when you played the riff from Bad Reputation I was counting out with your foot stomp. Pretty sure you were playing 4/4 all the way, but the last bar of that riff is in 5/4. Love your channel.
Back in 83 I bought a new Black Les Paul Standard just like the one in this video. I lived in an apartment in Moline, IL at the time. I paid $500 for the guitar. I remember playing Keep On Loving You by REO Speedwagon. The solo by Gary Richrath sooooo good!!. The neck and sustain were so amazing on that guitar. One day my cousin brought over his collection of Jimi Hendrix and VanHalen albums. After that day I only played Strats. I remember selling my Les Paul Standard for $450. I wonder how that old girl is doing?
Thin Lizzy were technically the first band that I saw live (opening for Queen), and Gary Moore and Scott Gorham were the guitarists. They were amazing as well, and I have been a big fan ever since. Thanks for showing the respect that you did! By the way, why don't you sing between the guitar parts when you cover songs that have a musical break in them? ;-)
Rocker is also a good street fighting song! But cowboy song is my favorite, followed by Bad Reputation ;) Thanks so much for this, i discovered Thin Lizzy in a guitar magazine in the 80's when i was 13 and bought Dedication the best of Thin Lizzy on Cassette at the same time as Hendrix Are You Experienced? Whataya know! Rock on ! Only Phil Lynott can sing : '' I always get chocolate stains on my pants '' and be taken seriously!
Great lesson! they were one of my favourite bands from my youth, especially when John Sykes joined them. How about doing a lesson on "Manic Street Preachers".
Through music history, there have neen a few bands with a list of guitarists that put other bands to shame, two that come to mind are the "Yardbirds" the other is and will always be, the one and only "Thin Lizzy" an exceptional band with and exceptional line-up.
Check out ANY tune on Black Rose! My favorite of all their albums. That record is a masterpiece from beginning to end AND it's got Gary Moore opposite Scott.
Lizzy and Budgie ( lesser known ), really heavily influenced a lot of 80`s metal. But it kinda started with Wishbone AshéABB. Lizzy`s Johhny the Fox and Bad Reputation still stand up to this day.
![OhGeesy x Lefty Gunplay - What It Iz [Official Music Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/L0yzW9t2ixk/mqdefault.jpg)
love Thin Lizzy. Jailbreak is an essential 70's "pinnacle rock" album. Every song and solo of each song is a precious gem.
Phil is my favorite rocker all time, Maiden owes everything to Lizzy
Love the chords in She Knows, & Cowboy Song, Ray-Gun is very cool, great video!
Thin Lizzy opened for Nazareth...First concert I ever saw at 14 years old...Houston, Tx. 1979...I was blown away...
Lynott was born in the West Midlands of England, but grew up in Dublin ... not African American ...
Love your lessons ... peace and stay safe
Yes, his father was from Brazil and his mother was from Ireland.
So he was technically half-African American.
: )
African father Irish mother I thought
Late Night Lessons. Sorry mate but technically he was British as he was born in Britain. His parents nationality is irrelevant.
Love the lessons though.
Even in chordplay there's gonna be politics
@@jkraft8655 Two dictionary definitions of nationality: (1) the status of belonging to a particular nation.

Thin Lizzy's "Live and Dangerous" another great 70's double live album. Nostalgic.

Thin Lizzy deserves to be in the Rock and roll Hall of fame,they keep getting snubbed! Rip Philo.
I hope this is the first of a 10 Part Thin Lizzy series!!!
Seriously, the chords behind the verse of "The Boys Are Back In Town" are very colorful. Great fodder for "Chordplay".
Every tune from live and dangerous could make it here. And black rose!
Thanks for talking about one of my favorite bands ever.
I recall it all when we were small how he tried his best to warn us all
Brian Robertson was so young during his time with Lizzy, his solo in "Still in love with you" was absolutely epic!!
It really was delightful. He had a similar tone and some some riffs reminded me of Santana during the same period. Ive got eight of their albums on vinyl and refuse to part with them.
It was actually Gary Moore who came up with the solo and played it on Nightlife, even if he was never credited for it. But Robertson definitely plays it beautifully on Live and Dangerous.
@@KajHeGeHaggman I believe Moore is credited on the back of the cover. If you have it you'll see his name with a reference to the song.
He was only 17 when he joined Lizzy He was classical trained on piano but took up guitar A precocious talent RIP Phil🇮🇪
Sebastian Fibes I usually ”Don’t Believe A Word”, but I trust you on this
This guy is accurate with the industry's history as well as his views and opinions. Thanks for the riffs Brewski! 🗿
Greetings from Dublin Ireland. Thanks for this. I've been playing in Lizzy tribute bands for years. My all time favourite band.
Cheers man.
Thunder and Lightening was a total guitar-gem album - HEAVY!

Got to see them on the Thunder & Lightning tour 1983 at Birmingham Odeon, England. Great gig, John Sykes definitely added something to the band.

Came across this and thought, if he doesn't start with Jailbreak...
Seen TL open for Queen in Boston 2 back to back performances.👍🏼💪
You could do a whole year just on Lizzy! I really love there music
Great video.
Midge Ure from ultravox was their guitarist for awhile to
I first got into thin Lizzy after hearing Phil on the War of the Worlds lp
Greatest band of all time!!! Especially with Gary Moore!
Eric Bell is one of my favorite guitarists. His stuff on Vagabonds of the Western World blows me away. Too bad he self destructed shortly thereafter.
Yes
Lizzy and Budgie ( lesser known ), really heavily influenced a lot of 80`s metal. But it kinda started with Wishbone AshéABB. Lizzy`s Johhny the Fox and Bad Reputation still stand up to this day.
Lest we not forget that Bad Reputation was a Scott Gorham and Phil album !!!!!!!!
