View albumThis is a classic Thin Lizzy album, which went gold in both Britain and the USA. In England, it even made it into the Top-10, like the single The boys are back in town (No. 1 in their native Ireland). The guitar duels of Gorham and Robertson came to the fore here, and the author of all the songs (sometimes in co-authorship with other members) was the black leader of the collective, Phil Lynott. Many critics consider this album to be almost the best in the collective's discography. Actually, there really are no filler compositions on the disc. Some are outstanding, some are simpler, but in general everything is very, very good. Thin Lizzy in their prime. Especially magnificent are the legendary The boys are back in town, the powerful Emerald, the semi-instrumental Warriors and the soulful Cowboy song. The group's classic romanticism is in place — Romeo and the lonely girl for fans of exactly these Lizzy. After this album, the group will begin to get heavier and by the beginning of the 80s will come to almost heavy metal, but here the proportions are observed almost perfectly.
