 (7 Customer Reviews)
Irish rock outfit Thin Lizzy gained worldwide status with its summer anthem, "The Boys Are Back in Town," a Springsteen pastiche of summer nights, male bonding, and the occasional fist fight or two. Although the band never released another single ... Full Descriptionthat equaled its impact, Thin Lizzy was enjoying both a commercial as well as creative peak during the mid- to late '70s. BAD REPUTATION is arguably the band's last "great" album. The radio-ready single, "Dancing in the Moonlight" is nearly as winning as the aforementioned "Boys" and the pumping title track is a classic Thin Lizzy mixture of twin guitars, bravado, and a dash of menace. Although singer Phil Lynott had a habit of crossing over into overblown machismo, more often than not the soulful tear in his voice along with the band's signature twin melodic guitar lines elevated the material beyond mere lunkhead chest pounding.
Thin Lizzy: Phil Lynott (vocals, bass); Brian Robertson, Scott Gorham (guitar); Brian Downey (drums).

This album is a rock masterpiece where phil,brian,scott,and brian fire on all cylinders."Soldier of fortune" is a war rock classic,then you have the title track in which brian downey is pounding the drums away,then you have "opium trail" when the guitar rhythm during the verses is legendary.Plus rest of the tracks which makes this album legendary.Best guitar solos and vocals from the greatest band ever.I mean ever!

Great But Not Complete
With the exceptions of 'Jailbreak' and 'Johnny The Fox', Lizzy never really made a completely brilliant studio album, from start to finish. Similar to 'Vagabonds', 'Fighting', 'Black Rose' and 'Thunder and Lightning', this contains many wonderful tracks but also some filler.
As a genuine hard rock band, should Lizzy have been making songs like 'Downtown Sundown' and 'Dear Lord'? I don't think so. In spite of that, this is an excellent listen and Lynott's songwriting is as strong as ever on 'Soldier of fortune', the title track, 'Opium Trail', 'Southbound', and 'Dancing in the moonlight', a big hit single in Europe but, strangely, not in America. My favourite track is 'Killer without a cause', a fierce effort featuring some stellar guitar work from the returning Robbo.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No I always come back to this album!
This is Lizzy at it's best! An album that has stood the test of time. I first bought it in 1977 when I was freshman at Clemson, my roommate was so impressed with this album that he almost stole it from me! Through the years this album has grown in stature.
Lizzy was one of those bands that was way ahead of it's time. This LP proves it.

Purchase Bad Reputation CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Thin Lizzy Johnny The Fox CD (1976)
Bad Reputation album
 $6.09  
As a concept album, JOHNNY THE FOX has too murky a theme to be considered a true success. As a rock album, it stands with the best of Thin Lizzy's work. Released during the band's peak years (the mid- to late '70s), the album is highlighted by the twin guitar attack of Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson and Lynott's own songwriting. Although his romantic artistic ambitions often outreached his hard rock grasp, the songs here (taken one by one) reveal a more focused craftsman.
The overall tone of the album is looser--funkier even--than on any previous Thin Lizzy effort. Of course, the only successful single was the predictable pounding of "Don't Believe a Word," but there are richer and unexpected highlights scattered throughout. The gentle strains of "Borderline" ...

Thin Lizzy were not true heavy metal perpetrators; more accurately, out-and-out rockers with a feeling for pop. The late Phil Lynott has a growing core of younger fans, as word is passed down that even though he had his demons he was an outstanding performer. This is their best studio album and it contains two classics; "The Boys Are Back In Town" and the title track. Both ...

| | Albert King Wednesday Night In San Francisco CD (1968)
Bad Reputation CD music
$9.45
Recorded in 1968, along with LIVE WIRE/BLUES POWER and Thursday NIGHT IN SAN FRANCISCO, this Albert King concert album shines the spotlight on a blues legend playing at the height of his powers. On this seven-song set at San Francisco's Fillmore Auditorium, the St. Louis-based guitarist truly gets his mojo working and schools the predominantly hippie crowd in the ways of the blues, offering up sinister, simmering takes on classics such as "I Get Evil" and "Born Under a Bad Sign." Although King is backed by a band on this date, the group is wise enough to stick to minimal accompaniment, allowing King's bold, expressive vocals and electrifying lead work to carry each ...
