Thin Lizzy - Whisky In The Jar Black Boys On The Corner
Review by Michal Fridrich
Whisky In The Jar Black Boys On The Corner is a classic album from the Irish rock band Thin Lizzy. Released in 1972, the album features some of the band's most iconic tracks, including the title track "Whisky In The Jar" and "Black Boys On The Corner".
The album showcases the band's ability to blend traditional Irish folk music with hard rock and blues, creating a unique sound that would become their trademark. The guitar work of Phil Lynott and Eric Bell is particularly impressive, with their solos and riffs providing the backbone of the album's sound.
The title track "Whisky In The Jar" is a standout, with its catchy chorus and infectious melody. It's a song that has stood the test of time and is still a crowd favorite today. "Black Boys On The Corner" is another highlight, with its powerful lyrics and driving rhythm.
