Seeing that's it is Saint Patrick's bank holiday weekend I thought I would play " Roisin Dubh" or "Black Rose". This is a Phil Lynott tribute night video in Dublin fifteen years ago.
Like Phil Lynott. Gary Moore is now no longer with us. I was lucky enough to see Phil Lynott and Scott Gorham and Snowy White and Brian Downey on the Renegade tour in 1981 when I was just seventeen.
I also saw Gary Moore at Milton Keynes Garden Party Rock festival in 1986.
For me "Black Rose" and "Live and Dangerous" are my two favourite Lizzy albums. Black Rose mentions famous legends of old and famous writers like Wilde and even the great George Best.
The song also includes a few famous Irish tunes like " The Mountains Of Mourne".
It's a great tribute to Philo. Enjoy and have a great Saint Patrick's Day. Slainte!
Happy St Patrick's. Have a wee dram for me 😀

ReplyDeleteHappy St. Patrick's Day!
ReplyDeleteAnd to you and yours Jules.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your St Patricks celebrations Dave.
ReplyDeleteYou to JayCee. We all need to party.
ReplyDeleteThe neighbours were banging on the wall as I played "Black Rose" at full volume. Don't have too much to drink to mark St Patrick's Day! Maybe a cocoa or an "Ovaltine"!
ReplyDeleteIsn't an excellent rock ballad YP? I quite like Lucozade in the day time.
DeleteHappy St Patrick's day. A message to J if you would. Tell her that I just finished 'Scapegallows', by Carol Birch. It is even more excellent than Naming Eliza.
ReplyDeleteHappy St Patrick's Day Debby. I will pass on your book recommendation.
