Phil Lynott and his bandmates were noticed by the DECCA label in 1970. The Irish band from Belfast released their first album in 1971 and began a career that would be marked by success, painful separations, and tragedies. Hits like 'Jailbreak', 'Boys Are Back In Town', 'Dancing In The Moonlight', and 'Whiskey In The Jar' still resonate as fond memories of a band whose DNA remained authenticity and power. Discover the early albums of this iconic Irish Rock band through these three reissues. Johnny the Fox: Released in 1976, this is the band's 7th album. It continues to steer the band towards more decidedly Hard Rock compositions. Phil Lynott's voice keeps the band in a groovy and Pop dynamic despite assaults of more powerful riffs. The presence of Brian Robertson (Motorhead in 1983/1984) since Nightlife (1974) is no stranger to this more assertive Metal direction. Bad Reputation: Released in 1977, this album records Brian Robertson's departure but continues to feature powerful Rock. Find the hit 'Dancing in the Moonlight' on this 180-gram vinyl reissue. Live And Dangerous: Released in 1978, this album is considered by Hard Rock enthusiasts to be one of the greatest live albums ever recorded. On this 180-gram double vinyl reissue, you'll find the band's biggest hits recorded live between 1976 and 1977.
