Thin Lizzy is back with a fresh take on some of
their most iconic tracks, marking their first new release in over four decades.
This unique acoustic album reimagines beloved
songs, offering a stripped-back sound that exposes the core of their songwriting.
Original vocals from Phil Lynott are paired with
brand-new guitar parts from founding member Eric Bell, creating an entirely new
listening experience for fans.
Commenting on the project, Eric Bell said, "I remember recording 'Eire' from our
debut album 'Thin Lizzy' in 1971. I wrote the main guitar part first on acoustic
and then we built it up from there. I played the 12-string acoustic throughout
the track and introduced the electric on top.
This was useful in the studio in Belfast recently where we recorded fresh guitar
parts to allow us to create new Thin Lizzy acoustic versions of some of our
favourite songs, by recreating those original acoustic parts and adding the
vocals which Philip laid down on the day and those original drum parts which
Brian came up with in the original recording sessions".
Each track on the album is a freshly created version of songs featured on the
50th-anniversary super deluxe editions of Vagabonds Of The Western World,
considered Thin Lizzy’s breakthrough.
The new album also includes acoustic
renditions of songs from their self-titled debut and Shades of a Blue Orphanage.
For the first time, “Whiskey In The Jar,” Thin Lizzy’s first UK Top 10 hit, is
presented in an acoustic format—an entirely new way to experience this enduring
favourite.
