If any band deserves to have homage paid to them with a lavish photographic book, look no further than Thin Lizzy. With their origins going back to the late ‘60s, by 1971 with the first album release, Lizzy’s journey really began.

Incredibly no one has published a visual biography before, but now that has been rectified.

Drawing on hundreds of images and items of memorabilia this large format 240-page book is a treasure trove for Thin Lizzy devotees—crammed full of live and offstage shots that portray the band’s journey through the decades. It also includes loads of super cool memorabilia including backstage passes, gig posters, media adverts and much more, all reproduced on high quality gloss paper. This is one future collector’s item that every self-respecting Lizzy fan will want to own.

Rounding it off, Thin Lizzy: A Visual Biography is topped and tailed with an 18,260-word timeline, making it an invaluable refence book. What I didn’t want to do is have overlap with my other three Thin Lizzy books, so for the reading part of the laser show, it’s the 18,260-word timeline of the band’s career, along with decade introductions and intro quotes (the only lift from the old books I did).

But the main point, of course, is the visual presentation. There are approximately 400 images, more than half of those being live shots, the rest being rare memorabilia, magazine ads, 45 sleeves from all over the world, promo items, buttons, ticket stubs, passes… you name it, all curated and approved by my Thin Lizzy partner in crime, Peter Nielsen.

Books will be signed by me to you unless you wave your arms wildly and tell me otherwise within like half an hour of ordering.
