35Th Anniversary Of The Death Of Phil Lynott

[Ken4155]

Phil Lynott's battle with drugs and drink is well known. Having taken heroin, he collapsed on Christmas Day 1985. Ten days later, on 4 Jan 1986, Phil succumbed to 'pneumonia and heart failure due to scepticaemia.' He was just 36 years old.
Throughout the day, i will be playing some Thin Lizzy songs in his memory. While it won't be as involved as my recent tribute to Freddie Mercury, it will be just as heartfelt.
Like many, i had never heard of the band until they (reluctantly) released Whiskey In The Jar in 1973. However, the band had been formed 4 years prior, and this track is off their self titled debt album;
