Thin Lizzy - Roisin Dubh (Black Rose) - A Rock Legend

Love Phil Lynott.. One of the most underrated rock vocalist..Their version of Whiskey in the Jar pisses all over the Metallica cover.

The best lineup of Lizzy, too - Eric Bell doing his Jeff Beck tributes was way better than the much-vaunted twin guitars of the later lineups, IMHO. Check out the solo on the B-side of the "WitJ" single, "Black Boys on the Corner".

Aye , that is brilliant , proper Rock n Roll as it should be. I don't listen to the tripe they churn out these days-These 'Modern Rock' bands

The Twin Lead guitar sparring style was best done by Wishbone Ash , technically impeccable. Another band which is very underrated and relatively unknown in 'classic rock/metal' circles.

Scorpions also used it on occasionally, I remember their live album 'Acoustica' played inside a Monastery/Temple. They had three acoustic guitars , two on lead and one on rhythm.

The Eagles in their 'hell freezes over' album , used something like 5 or 6 guitarists in the acoustic interpretation of hotel california :shock: .

70's was a great period of genuinely great Rock masterpieces...

Welcome to VT MrWeedMcGrass, I don't feel so alone among all these dance/hip-hop/rap fans now!

Agree about Wishbone Ash, BTW. I had to smile when I read this Amazon customer review of "Argus":

"Last summer my band and i were practicing at our guitarist's house, working on a new song i had written with a duel guitar riff, when his mother came in and commented on how much it sounded like Wishbone Ash. Who? Wishbone Ash. Being only 15 at the time i had not heard of them, and so she lent me Argus. Immediately after hearing it I got myself a copy and have since found it difficult to find an album that betters it. From the superb opening of 'Time Was' I was hooked. An album of consistency on every track; brilliant vocals, outstanding guitars, great drumming and some fantasic bass playing (check out 'Sometime World' to see what i mean".
