    Had the privilege of seeing this band in its many line ups.....i never saw a bad gig........and the crowds were always straight up rock n rollers 🎸🎸🎸.....great song from a truly great band. Imho Bad Reputation is arguably their best album......

    A great track from an equally great band, R.I.P. Phil Lynott gone too soon at 36.

    Scotty is American. Phil & Brian are Irish. Snowy White, English I think. And you mentioned me. I so love you guys! ❤ Thank you so much! ❤ more music please 🙏 love ye're analysis of songs. Clearly into your music 😊

      Phil Lynott must have changed his nationality to that of his Dublin born mother, Phil was born in West Bromwich, England. His father was British Guianan by birth.

    You have the right meaning when it comes to this song. "Opium" was becoming a big problem in the band at this time. One of my favourite drumming songs. First guitar solo, Snowy White, second solo, Scott Gorham. Chinatown in London was also the heart of the entertainment industry in the UK, Thin Lizzy's offices were there, and also the red light district, so all excess was conveniently located. It's the same location, Soho, Warren Zevon was singing about in Werewolves of London.

    This is my favorite band. Brian Downey is one of the main reasons. Excellent drummer, but the whole band is great. Phil is an excellent songwriter.

    Another great piece from Thin Lizzy , think this Album "Chinatown " is from 1980 ,
    Sugar Blues is a triffic tune from this album ! more Thin Lizzy is always welcome , cheers !

    An awesome band sadly missed. Talent, off the chart. China town right now, this track would set new standards for todays music. Brian Downey another brilliant drummer that is totally underrated and to not hear what they would be playing today is a tragedy. Merry Christmas Hanier Family and have a great new year too. Cheers.

    Yes, this is a good LP, which I have.
    Thin Lizzy must have been really passionate about trying to stay clean off drugs. They put so much energy into this song.
    But wait, there's more. Wait until you listen to Genocide, (Killing of the Buffalo). On this album.
    This song is even harder and better. The Title is self-explanatory. Cheers!

    Great band live. I saw them with Nazareth in the 79 or 80. Snowy White was best known at this time for playing guitar for Pink Floyd's touring band, and some other stuff as well.

    Proper palate cleanser from the other unspeakable nonsense chosen tonight …🤨
    This is just top flight Thin Lizzy from their golden period , I’ve made it clear I’m not a fan of over effusive geetar solos etc but im happy to forgive that in their case as their edgy Rock credentials overcome that wee fault - excellent 👌

    Here's an idea: "Where did they come from?" Take any successful band/solo artist, and find a song from before they were famous. EG , Deep Purple, so you would have Episode Six, The Artwoods, and Johnny Kidd and the pirates. Or Dio, Elf, Ronnie and the redcaps, and, The Vegas Kings.
