The Cat 3

:goodone: Yes, let us all way for the timely return of FF!

Just like the others said about Newark, however, I like the new "short films".

called Thanks again, just ordered it! Yea!!! There is a new book coming out about them written by Harry Doherty with Scott Gorham http://www.amazon.co.uk/Thin-Lizzy-Boys-Back-Town/dp/1780384327/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8=1351110335=8-1 This is from Thin Lizzy's site... This Thin Lizzy book has come through an awfully long gestation period! Back in 1977, Phil Lynott asked me to write the book and interviews were conducted in Toronto where I spent a month with the band while they recorded „Bad Reputation. After that, it was delayed as we tried to continuously update it during the subsequent albums, but Phil Lynott would never come clean with his increasing drug use. In fact, he looked me in the eye once: „Harry, I don‚t take drugs anymore‰. But during the period, they continued to prove that they were one of the most potent rock bands in the world, growing from humble roots in Dublin with a few early albums that verged on folk-rock, and then recording the innovative, Vagabonds of the Western World, with its orchestral guitars, fine songs and arrangements, and, of course, Lynott‚s unique voice. But it was after the band lost, first, Eric Bell, and briefly afterwards, Gary Moore, that they really came into their own, in what has been called The Golden Era of Thin Lizzy. With two new guitarists, Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson, they set upon an unprecedented set of albums and touring, culminating in what has been voted the Best Live Album of all time, Live and Dangerous. Then, of course, the guitar curse struck again, Robertson out / Moore back in / Moore out / Robertson back in, until they settled on blues maestro Snowy White, who had cut his teeth with Pink Floyd. White quit after two albums when he grew tired of the drug use by Lynott and Gorham, leaving the door open for another young guitarist to enter. John Sykes was known primarily as a heavy metal player, and he brought that heaviness to one album, Thunder and Lightning. But the end was nigh, and when it came, it really crashed down, tragically. When Phil died, I finished a first draft of the book, on the proviso that I would be able to tell the whole story, and if any one person from the band or their families objected, I wouldn‚t publish it. It was all very dark and too close to Phil‚s death. A few people flinched at the „warts and all‰ detail, including Scott Gorham and his wife, Christine, and the singer‚s mother, Philomena. So at last we have the full story, the tale of a band that never knew when to stop and what to stop. This is Thin Lizzy, from beginning to end. Harry Doherty

called I never even heard of this, is it new... ...I'm to Amazon.com. Thanks!

:goodone: Yeah, I'm sure they are good live, but my mind just won't accept this incarnation as Guns n Roses.

This from the Classic Albums series. I wish they would have released 2112 and Moving Pictures seperately.

It is pretty enjoyable, they were on their game that night, but out of all the pictures they must have of Freddie from that gig, do you think they could have found a worse one?!

Picked it up at the show here in New Jersey...the DVD is amazing, as is the book!

I wouldn't think they "do" hard drugs now, (perhaps smoke Marijuana) but would venture to guess that they have used harder drugs in the past.

I happen to like Rush in Rio, (my fav DVD) but agree the sound could be better. There are sections of "Different Stages" where the crowd noise is a little annoying...I have bootlegs that sound better than "Different Stages".

Great photos, thanks, as always John!

Same here... ...worked my way from "The Who Sings My Generation" through "Live at Hull"

It is a work in progress, getting better everyday and still the best Rush related place to visit!

Happy Birthday theanalogkid!!!!!!!!!

I haven't picked up Monster yet. Is it something that will go on my shelf and never see the light of day again? I've listened to it about 5 times when it was first released and there it sits, although I do like it. That being said, KISS, to me, is the kind of music that you really have to be in the mood for.

I will say this, the new Aerosmith album is much better than the new KISS album.

Hot coffee and a hot shower this morning.
