These lavish, 28cm x 28cm hard-back books from classic Universal artists feature around 100 pages of essays, beautiful photographs and memorabilia. "Ear Books - a new dimension of entertainment". Phil Lynott will forever be remembered as one of rock music's true greats. This 73-track collection offers a stunning overview of his work as the leader of Thin Lizzy, charting their progress from being hard-living rockers at the centre of the Dublin music scene to being hard-living rockers at the very centre of the rock world. Their material, at once unmistakable thanks to Lynott's driving bass and richly individualistic vocal style, remains shot through with a beating heart full of often desperate romanticism. Hear all the hits, selected album tracks and rarities on this exquisitely-packaged collection. Review: It's the box set for me! - This is one of the best box set's if not the best ever made, it is a must have for any Lizzy fan in fact any rock fan should have a copy at such at such a reasonable price the import copy is the best Ear books edition a square LP size format you get extra photos and of course bigger picture excellent printing quality as well, for a few extra quid it's worth it. Many high points like "Sitamoia"a track that was the b side to Little Darling from 74 on Decca with Gary Moore one of the best things they ever did why they never did this live I do not know? "Try a little harder"a out-take from the Fighting album a Robertson and Lynott track this should have been on the album great solo by Robbo. "Me and the boys"Live from the Rainbow originally B side to Rosalie 1978 great interplay with the crowd by Phil in his own Irish Charm! "Just the two of us" with Gary Moore from the Black Rose sessions Another B side. It all so includes some of Phil's solo stuff "King Call"stands out it's all most hypnotic the way he sings it in that low baritone voice. All lavishly package with informative sleeve notes and some rare photographs get it you will not be disappointed. We praise the record company's when they do things right, quite rightly slag them when they don't,but well done Universal shame some of your other deluxe album edition were not up to this standard. Review: One of the best box sets of all times. - One of the best box sets of rock groups collection whit b sides and rarities already launched. Brings all the classics from the band, with very few absences. Another small flaw is the absence of tracks recorded for the BBC, which already was promptly supplied with the box set At the BBC, released in 2011. Nevertheless, this box set brings the powerful spectrum of Phillip Lynott in all its essence. Disc 4 features some tracks that were recorded for the Grand Slam project in the period after Lizzy, on 84/85, which was never released at the time, and it was released in other box sets dedicated to the founder leader legend bassist /vocalist of the group .The box brings all the popular set of songs, including the songs that Gary Moore recorded in 73/74, the powerful Sitamoia and Little Darling. Also brings other relics, like the music who dont entered in the 1975 hard rock classic Figthing,Try a Little Harder, among other items (from rare B Sides and Flexi Discs), Me and the Boys as they did not enter in the classic Live and Dangerous of 1978 and Song for Jimi (a brief return of Eric Bell in 1978). Anyway, there's talk that the excellent content found in this wonderful 4 CD Box. It is the one of the greatest box sets ever released, as the fantastics 30 Years of Maximum R AND B (The Who), Crossroads (Eric Clapton), Five Boys went into a Bar (the Faces) and Biograph (Bob Dylan). But for the purchase is satisfactory, get the box which was relaunched in 2006 with the book of 100 pages, by Ear Books in company with the UMC. Finnaly, BUY now, and put it in the Lizzy Collection.

A fitting tribute
If you're a Lizzy fan you're probably already got most of the music, but this is still worth serious consideration. It's beautifully packaged the running order is well judged, with all the various line ups represented, with some great photos. All in all a great tribute to Phil, a sadly missed talent, a great song writer, a great singer, a criminally underrated bass player, and for those of us lucky enough to see him live, one of the best front men any band has ever had.

Good condition
Whilst this anthology book of Thin Lizzy songs arrived later than originally expected, it did arrive. It also was in considerably better condition that I expected which was excellent ! Very pleased !

thin lizzy lives on
this is a very good boxset of thin lizzys recorded work the main reason that i brought this boxset was because of the inclusion of the b-sides of various vinyl singles which are not available on cd and very rare and difficult to get which means this cd boxset is important to all thin lizzy fans very worthwhile to get and not to expensive.

I'm 28 so Thin Lizzy was around long before I really had heard of them. This review wont be lengthy because there is too much material/songs on this box set to go over. I'll just say this is probably the 8th box set I've purchased (Black Sabbath,Hendrix,Stevie Ray Vaughan,The Eagles,Clapton,ZZ Top,etc_ over the years and not enough words can describe how f-in talented Phillip Lynott was before his tragic passing, Snowy White,Gary Moore,a few other guitarists all shared their time on each album and provide unbelievable solos. If you want to die peacefully some day or just simply turn a bad day into good, make sure you get this box set and listen to it as much as possible. It's worth every dollar you put into it and then some.

縦長ＤＩＧＩＢＯＯＫ仕様の４枚組で収録曲もGARY MOOREとの「OUT IN THE FＩELDS」が入っていたらもっと良かったのですが(+_+)これはこれで非常に良い(^_-)-☆

Vermächtnis des leider viel zu früh verstorbenen Ausnahme-Musikers "Phil Lynott" und seiner legendären Rock-Band "Thin Lizzy" in einer 73 Song starken Zusammenstellung seines Schaffens in der Zeit zwischen 1970 und 1985 auf 4 CD's als Earbook, dass in Buchform die Karriere des Band-Leaders von Thin Lizzy von den Anfängen der Dubliner Musikszene bis hin zum viel umjubelten Rockstar und erfolgreichen Bassisten, Sänger und Songwriter der Band beleuchtet. Nach einer Bilderbuchkarriere mit großartigen Hits wurde ihm schlussendlich sein ausschweifender Lebensstil in Form von Drogen am 04.01.1986 zum Verhängniss. CD 1: VAGABONDS legt den Schwerpunkt auf den Karrierebeginn der Band von 1970-1973 als Trio im Ur-Line-Up "Phil Lynott", "Eric Bell" und "Bryan Downey" mit rauheren, rockigen und nicht so ausgefeilten perfekten Gitarren-Sound wie den späteren Werken. Erwähnenswert hier Lizzy's erste Single "The farmer", 1970 nur in Irland veröffentlicht mit leichten Southern-Rock-Einschlag und die wunderschöne Lynott-Ballade "Sarah", die Phil seiner Großmutter widmete. Überraschend kam dann der erste Hit "Whiskey in the jar" der Band. Ursprünglich wurde der Folk-Rock-Hammer 1972 als B-Seite der progressiven Hardrock-Single "Black boys on the corner" veröffentlicht, und dessen Hit-Potential von der Band völlig unterschätzt. Der Konsument war hier anderer Meinung, drehte die Seiten, und bescherte der Band ihren ersten Riesen-Hit. Das bluesangehauchte "Broken dreams" wartet mit einem großartigen Eric Bell-Solo auf. Großartige druckvolle Gitarren-Arbeit von Eric Bell zeichnet das Titellied "Vagabond of the western world" des dritten Studio-Albums von 1973 aus. Höhepunkt der ersten Scheibe dann die rhytmischen Gitarren-Hooks von "The rocker", ein Hardrock-Hammer vom Feinsten mit ausufernden Bell-Gitarren-Solo, im November 1973 als Single veröffentlicht. Vagabonds umfasst somit die ersten drei Lizzy-Studio-Alben plus der "New Day-EP" von 1971. CD 2: KINGS zeigt die Band am Höhepunkt ihrer Karriere zwischen 1974-1976, im Insel-Line-Up "Phil Lynott", "Scott Gorham", "Brian Robertson" und "Brian Downey". 1974 löste jedoch vorerst Gitarren-Hero und Busenfreund Lynott's "Gary Moore" den scheidenden Eric Bell ab mit dem Ergebnis der Single "Little darling" und seiner B-Seite "Sitamoia", keine Rock-Klassiker, jedoch von bandgeschichtlicher Bedeutung, da Gary Moore stets der Band Stabilität verleihte, wenn dies in turbulenten Zeiten von Nöten war. Ebenfalls aus dieser Zeit stammt Lynott's-Mega-Ballade "Still in love with you" mit fulminanten Gitarren-Solo von Gary Moore, veröffentlicht auf Lizzy's vierten Studio-Album "Night life". Fantastisch dann "Philomena", im typischen Gorham/Robertson-Twin-Gitarren-Sound, der zum Markenzeichen der Band in diesem klassischen Line-Up werden sollte. Mit dem Bob Seger-Cover "Rosalie", "King's vengeance", "Suicide" und "Fighting my way back" vom fünften Album "Fighting" setzten Thin Lizzy konsequent ihren Hardrock-Stil fort. Verwunderlich dass das unveröffentlichte "Try a little harder", aufgenommen 1975 während der Fighting-Sessions, nie den Weg auf das Album fand. Die Krönung der zweiten Scheibe gipfelt dann mit "Jailbreak", "Romeo", "The boys are back in town", "Cowboy song" und "Emerald" in fünf Songs, allesamt vom sechsten und wohl besten Lizzy-Studio-Album "Jailbreak" in der klassischen Besetzung von 1976. Fantastische Gitarren-Arbeit gepaart mit tollen Songs sind das Geheimnis dieses Hammer-Albums. Die Single-Auskoppelung "The boys are back in town" mutierte gar zum weltweiten Hit und weiteren Hymne der Band. Unvergleichlich auch die Gitarren-Hämmer "Cowboy song" und "Emerald", die nur nach vorne gehen. CD 3: WARRIORS steht für die Rock-Periode zwischen 1976-1979, beginnend mit fünf Tracks des siebten Studio-Album "Johnny the fox". Stellvertretend seien hier die Über-Ballade "Don't believe a word" und der Rock-Hammer "Massacre" erwähnt. Weiter gehts mit vier Tracks des achten Studio-Album "Bad reputation" von 1977, wo die Mega-Balladen "Soldier of fortune" und "Dancing in the moonlight" hervorstechen. Nach der Veröffentlichung der legendären "Live and dangerous"-Platte 1978, die neue Live-Massstäbe setzte, stieg Brian Robertson aus und Gary Moore wurde erstmalig offizielles Mitglied der Band mit dem Ergebnis von "Black rose", Lizzy's Meisterwerk und zehntes Studioalbum von 1979. Davor im Dezember 1978 veröffentlichte Moore sein Solo-Album "Back on the streets", wo hier sein Single-Hit "Parisienne walkways" vertreten ist. Eine Wahnsinnsballade geschrieben von Moore und Lynott, der am Bass spielt und singt. Brian Downey an den Drums und Don Airey am Keyboard ergänzten das damalige Moore-Line-Up. Aber zurück zum Hammer-Album "Black rose", das seinesgleichen sucht und hier mit den genialen Tracks "Do anything you want to", dem Band-Live-Klassiker "Waiting for an alibi", "Sarah", der vielleicht schönsten je geschriebenen Lynott-Ballade, gewidmet seiner Tochter, dem Rock-Überflieger der Scheibe "Got to give it up" und dem traditionellen "Roisin Dubh/Black rose" vertreten sind. CD 4: ANGELS zeichnet dann das Bild der letzten Jahre der Band zwischen 1980-1985 nach dem Ausstieg Gary Moores, der durch "Snowy White"(ex Pink Floyd) ersetzt wurde mit dem Ergebnis von "Chinatown", Lizzy's elften Studio-Album 1980, einem weiteren Highlight ihrer Band-Karriere, vertreten hier durch den fulminanten Titeltrack "Chinatown" und dem furiosen Hard-Rocker "Killer on the loose". Mit dem Titeltrack "Renegade" und "Hollywood" sind zwei Songs des zwölften Studio-Albums "Renegade" von 1981 vertreten, erstmals mit "Darren Wharton" and den Keyboards. Der Titeltrack "Thunder and lightning", "Cold sweat" und "The sun goes down" bilden dann den Abschluss zu Lizzy's dreizehnten und letzten veröffentlichten Studio-Album mit ihrem Band-Leader Phil Lynott. Nachdem Snowy White ausstieg, wurde er durch "John Sykes"(ex-Whitesnake) ersetzt, der mit der Band mit "Thunder and lightning" 1983 ein Hardrock-Album unter Mithilfe des Metal-Produzenten "Chris Tsangarides" einspielte und somit den letzten Meilenstein in der fulminanten Rock & Roll-Odyssee von Phil Lynott & Thin Lizzy setzte. Als Raritäten beinhaltet die Mega-Box "King's call" von Lynott's Debut-Solo-Album "Solo in Soho" von 1980 mit "Mark Knopfler" an der Lead-Gitarre und Brian Downey an den Drums, "Old town" von Lynott's zweiten Solo-Album "The Phil Lynott Album" von 1982 mit Darren Wharton an den Keyboards, "Sisters of mercy", ein unveröffentliches Demo von Lynott's Band-Projekt "Grand Slam" von Mai 1984, "Nineteen", Lynott's letztveröffentlichte Single produziert von "Paul Hardcastle" im November 1985 mit der B-Seite "A night in the life of a blues singer" aufgenommen von Lynott in London im Dezember 1979. Diese Box-Fundgrube an Raritäten wird dann noch von einem grandiosen wunderschönen Buch mit jeder Menge tollen unveröffentlichten Fotos des Meister Phil Lynott und seiner Band Thin Lizzy auf seiner Rock & Roll-Odyssey aus allen Kapiteln der grandiosen Bandgeschichte getoppt, und macht sie somit zum ultimativen Phil Lynott-Vermächtnis zum absoluten Schnäppchen-Preis.
