Editorial Reviews
From Amazon.co.uk
Four CDs, 73 tracks, one rock & roll legend: Thin Lizzy's Vagabonds, Kings, Warriors and Angels contains all you need to know about the greatest bar room rock & roll band ever to inspire heavy drinking and boisterous behaviour. You can actually hear the early trio of Phil Lynott, Eric Bell and Brian Downey learn their instruments on CD1, with fluffed changes and loose timekeeping adding up to a suitably rough & ready charm. Lynott's roguish demeanour propelled Lizzy as much as the twin guitar acrobatics of Gorham and Robertson throughout the classic line years, of course, and every bad boy tear is here in full: "Still In Love", "Don't Believe A Word", "Sarah"--the list goes on and on. Lizzy knew their way around a killer pop tune as well and many of their anthems are all-time classics. "The Boys Are Back In Town", naturally (and if you've never screamed "the jukebox in the corner blasting out my favourite song!" you sorely need these CDs); "Dancing In The Moonlight" (a brilliant live version); "Alibi"; again the list is endless. The story ends with the band's heavier years, from "Killer On The Loose" to the much undervalued "Cold Sweat" and at the final, emotional reckoning, Thin Lizzy are vagabonds, kings, warriors, angels and, ultimately, heroes. --Ian Watson
Chronique amazon.fr
Avec à sa tête le chanteur et bassiste Phil Lynott (décédé en 1986), Thin Lizzy a été l'un des groupes les plus singuliers des années 1970. Hard-rock, psychédélisme, progressive, soul, la musique de la formation irlandaise, que les critiques n'ont jamais vraiment réussi à définir, revient aujourd'hui sous les feux de l'actualité musicale grâce à ce coffret. Quatre CD couvrant la première moitié des seventies, soit 73 chansons au total, tel est l'objet de Vagabonds Kings Warriors Angels, qui permet au passage de se replonger (ou de découvrir) les "légendaires" duels que se livraient les guitaristes Brian Robertson et Steve Gorham. Mais c'est surtout la musique dans son ensemble qui mérite une écoute particulière. Une musique d'avant "The Boys Are Back In Town" (le hit de 1976 !), qui évoque tantôt Cream tantôt le rock "en col bleu" de Bob Seger (et même de Bruce Springsteen) et qui sent bon, aussi, la bière chaude des pubs... --Philippe Margotin
