Free Music Notes for FightingFree Music Review: Fantastic Sound, Great Album!! Hit: 5 Stars
****This review is for the Remastered Import version with the alternate cover**** The music on this album is 5 stars, no argument. This review is mainly for Thin Lizzy fans debating on whether to purchase this "remastered" import.....DO IT! From the very first track, I was flat out blown away by the improvement in the sound compared to previous releases. I knew right away this was going to be a fantastic listen. Songs like "Suicide", "Wild One" & "King's Revenge" have finally received the tratment they deserve. If you still have this album on vinyl or are thinking about upgrading from your current cd version, add to cart now. You will not regret this purchase, I guarantee it. Lastly, look into zShops, you can get this album at a really, really fair price.
Free Music Review: thin lizzy-fighting Hit: 5 Stars
I've always loved thin lizzy and have most of their albums in storage and hadn't lisened to this one in many years because i didn't have a cd [which I did purchase recently]. If you like any Thin Lizzy , you will love this. This was their first and a bit less refined , but it has many great songs; only a couple take a little longer to grow on you. Rick
Free Music Review: Has the most twin guitar attacks of all Hit: 5 Stars
I't's that twin guitar thing that Gorham and Robertson does. Iron Maiden has nothing on them. You will get them here. Perfect vibrato harmonies and all those killer leads from both guys. Awesome tempo changes.
Free Music Review: the second with Robertson/Ghorham Hit: 5 Stars
This record is very good, I don't like the song Rosalie, for me Phil do his best with his music, the high moment of this cd: two songs, for those who love to live, and suicide.
Free Music Review: FIGHTING TO BREAK OUT Hit: 4 Stars
This is the second album, yes, album, that I bought by Thin Lizzy, with the first being NIGHTLIFE. The local Rock station was playing "Rosalie" and "Fighting My Way Back" regularly and I enjoyed the guitar work and the emotional vocals of Phil Lynott. Other interesting songs that I enjoyed were "For Those Who Love to Live", "Suicide", and "Wild One". There isn't what I would call a bad track, but some songs just don't grab me like others. Starting with JAILBREAK, Thin Lizzy wouldn't even record a song I didn't like ever again. It's hard to say this is the band's roots, but it is their second shot with two guitarists and the third time would be the charm.
After 3 albums and assorted singles with Decca/London Records, the original guitarist, Eric Bell, left Thin Lizzy and Lynott decided to replace him with 2 guitarists, Scott Gorham [California] and Brian Robertson [Scotland], so the band would never be caught without a guitarist again starting on the preceding album NIGHTLIFE. The band was also eager to shed its "one hit wonder status" caused by the success of Whiskey In the Jar in the UK. Thin Lizzy was hard to label at this point because you got hard rock, folk music, blues, pop and even some poetry set to music. If you are looking for the best Thin Lizzy I would suggest releases such as Chinatown, Bad Reputation, Jailbreak or Thunder and Lightning. If you are actually wanting to try Thin Lizzy for the first time take a look at Dedication, Lizzy Killers, or their new greatest hits package. I, personally, had to have all the Thin Lizzy releases, except for the greatest hits, because there are no new songs on them.
If you are into hard rock roots or the 70's, this is a... sleeper album and would only help out any CD collection. There is a variety of music here, but this disc may not be for everyone, so, try a better release or anthology pakage first, then go crazy buying the rest!
