Free Music Notes for Bad ReputationFree Music Review: Thin Lizzy strike again! Hit: 5 Stars
If you compare most rock bands of today with Thin Lizzy, it would be obvious that Lizzy were far more talented, creative and skilful. The lyrics by Phil Lynott are usually very good and it's not just empty words that sound cool or right to a particular song. Thin Lizzy had the ability to play anything from the hardest rock ("Bad reputation") to the most melodic and emotional pieces ("Dancing in the moonlight"). On this album, there's plenty of great songs that never gained the attention they deserve, "Southbound", "That woman's gonna break your heart", and "Dear Lord" are all in the line of the finest Thin Lizzy ever recorded.
Free Music Review: Thin Lizzy Come Up With A Winner Despite The Absence Of One Guitarist Hit: 5 Stars
On BAD REPUTATION, Thin Lizzy, in spite of the fact that guitarist Brian Robertson was out of the picture on all but three songs, managed to put together one of their finest albums ever. Scott Gorham responded fantastically to the pressure, coming through with some of his most aggressive playing ever in order to cover for Robertson's absence. Bassist-vocalist-songwriter Phil Lynott also let his jazz and folk influences shine through in spots, resulting in one of the band's most musically diverse albums ever. Overall, BAD REPUTATION is essential for anyone even remotely interested in 70s heavy metal.
Free Music Review: One Of Thin Lizzy's Top Three Albums Hit: 5 Stars
Next to Johnny The Fox and Thunder & Lightning this is one of my favorite Thin Lizzy albums. It contains gems like Soldier Of Fortune, Southbound, Dancing In The Moonlight, Dear Lord, and the title track (Downey's drums on fire!). Phil's songwriting is superb and the guitar playing of Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson is excellent (I still think Another Perfect Day w/ Brian is Motorhead's best album). Thin Lizzy was a band that put out a string of great albums but unfortunately is only remembered for a couple songs (just like Blue Oyster Cult). Get this great album and enjoy some good music!
Free Music Review: Bad Reputation is Bad! I mean that in a Good way! Hit: 5 Stars
From soldier to killer this rocks! and then slows down a bit with the last 3 songs but still a killer album. I think the production is a little too smooth and should've had a little more edge to it but yadayada there is still nothing out there today that can touch this!Opium Trail and Bad Reputation are two of Lizzy's best and I was upset when they didn't appear on the live album? I don't get that decision but if you find live versions of them get them also because they rock live. Great album once again from Lizzy!
Free Music Review: Bad Reputation is Bad Reputation Hit: 5 Stars
This is a really great Thin Lizzy album. Despite the fact that Lizzy had lost Robertson on some of the track they had been able to hold together for such a good album like this. Although you can't tell Scott Gorham had done some great work on the album without Robertson. Some of the songs like Southbound and Dancin In The Moonlight were already great on this album. If you want Thin Lizzy at their shining moment I would tell you that Nightlife, Fighting, Jailbreak, and Live & Dangerous are your best bets.
