by Thin Lizzy

Though the song is strong lyrically, bass player and writer Lynott was never afraid to allow the axemen to dominate a track, and it features some typically blistering Lizzy soloing.

I hope you’re right. Their offense should have a little more punch this year. Anything short of the playoffs will be very disappointing. 🙏
