cvansickle Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 My apologies for the rant that's going to follow' date=' but this is one of my pet peeves... As a big Thin Lizzy fan, I find it hard to believe how many people associate Lizzy with Gary Moore. Moore played on ONE Thin Lizzy album... Other than helping out a couple of times (usually when Brian Robertson was too drunk/angry/messed up to do the job) he's not been as important to Lizzy's history as he'd like us to believe. Even Snowy White played on more Lizzy albums. Gorham/Robertson are the defining Lizzy guitarists. Both played Les Pauls at the time. They defined the sound of Lizzy and were at the core of the band's golden era. Gorham gets overlooked because he's a modest guy and more of a sideman than a leader, but most of the instantly hummable Lizzy solos are his. *Rant off*[/quote'] It ain't a rant if it's the TRUTH!
