Free Music Review: A Strong Release!
Hit: 4 Stars
Ten years into their career though, sadly, closer to the end than the beginning, Thin Lizzy released Chinatown. While not the best album in the band's catalog, it is a strong release.
Beginning with the hard rockin' "We Will Be Strong," the album gets off to a good start. The guitar is in fine form, as are the vocals supplied by bassist/vocalist Phil Lynott. This is one of my personal favorites from Lizzy.
Title track "Chinatown" is really driven by the percussion and bass, though it does feature a strong guitar solo, and marks a change in style from the opening track, while "Sweetheart" is driven by Lynott's vocals, at first, and by a repeated melody later in the track.
"Sugar Blues" is a departure for Lizzy, being a more typical, blues driven hard rock track, rather than the folk approach they often take, and it's a real album highlight...especially that shredding solo over thumping bass guitar!
The second half is a little less strong than the first, though tracks like "Genocide" which just manage to sound as only Lizzy can sound, are always welcome.
