They’d
go on to be one of the most definitive, life-affirming rock acts of the
70s but on their 1971 debut, Thin Lizzy seemed more nostalgic for the
60s. Lizzy mainstays Phil Lynott and Brian Downey together with original
guitarist Eric Bell formed a power trio in the mould of Hendrix, Cream
and The Jeff Beck Group and played an eclectic mix of folky, funky and
soulful hippy rock. Honesty Is No Excuse is a sophisticated string-laden
ballad, Look What The Wind Blew In has a carefree chorus and wonderful
stuttering riff, Eire is a beautiful Celtic ode and Return Of The
Farmer’s Son has hints of future glories in its jousting guitar and
rolling drums. But many of the songs here, like the endless Diddy
Levine, prove forgettable and even the album’s rockiest moments have a
maudlin, nostalgic mood. All this makes Thin Lizzy a decent choice for
hungover Sunday afternoons. But you know what Lizzy albums you were
listening to on the Saturday and this wasn’t one of them.
