Thin Lizzy

Inside Thin Lizzy 1971-1983: An Independent Critical Review offers a look at each of the band's albums during this period alongside archival footage of the band in concert and in various television appearances.

Despite a huge hit single in the mid-'70s ("The Boys Are Back in Town") and becoming a popular act with hard rock/heavy metal fans, Thin Lizzy are still, in the pantheon of '70s rock bands, underappreciated.
