Bad Reputation by Thin Lizzy
Drummer Brian Downey provided the driving almost tribal power and energy for this title track from the album "Bad Reputation". Not one of their bestsellers, this song I believe to be one of their finest compositions. Sadly, Thin Lizzy has had to carry on without lead singer/bassist Phil Lynott since his passing over 20 years ago. Their first hit "Whiskey In The Jar" was released by their record company against their wishes. The song ultimately brought the band into the limelight and was recorded by Metallica nearly 30 years later. Thin Lizzy has only two appearances scheduled this year co-starring with Metallica on the final leg of Metallica's European tour. Stay current at their Home Page.
