Thin Lizzy - Greatest Hits

Thin Lizzy is unquestionably one of the true icons of British rock. Nobody has ever sounded like them, yet they have influenced countless others. Phil Lynott's poetic lyricism, the unmatchable dual guitar precision and peerless melodies, all of this is part of the Lizzy heritage and what they have left behind is powerful and influential.

The band formed as a three-piece in Dublin and 1970 but it was their 1976 album Jailbreak proved to be the moment that Thin Lizzy arrived on the world stage as an unstoppable force. In 1978, the band released Live and Dangerous, which is rightly regarded as one of the all-time great live albums. The band finally called it a day in 1983, with their final British performance being a headlining slot at the Reading Festival that August.

On January 4, 1986, Lynott tragically died at the age of 36 but left behind a catalogue of songs that stands head and shoulders above any of his peers.

This Greatest Hits 2LP set brings together all the band’s hits and live favourites on vinyl for the first time in a non-limited edition form. Lizzy Expert Nick Sharp has overseen the tracklisting, which is all killer, no filler and pure unadulterated Thin Lizzy.

Heavyweight double vinyl produced by Universal Music in 2021. Embossed gatefold sleeve.
