Rolling Stones: Welcome to Shepherd's Bush [2 Vinyl LP]

Each track on the album is a freshly created version of songs featured on either 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.<br/> <br/>Drummer Brian Downey, the only member to have played in every iteration of the band alongside Lynott, co-wrote the original version of "Slow Blues." His powerful, orchestral drumming created a distinctive bridge in a song that fused gritty blues with subtle jazz influences.<br/> <br/>The origins of "Whiskey In The Jar" date back to the 1700s, but it found new life when Phil Lynott began playfully strumming the traditional Irish tune during a rehearsal. Their manager at the time urged them to record it, despite the band's hesitations. Released in 1972, the song soared to number 6 on the UK charts. Though its success was undeniable, Thin Lizzy initially distanced themselves from the track, leaving it off their upcoming album. Since then, the song-echoing the Lizzy arrangement-has been covered by notable acts such as U2, Metallica, and The Pogues, among many others.
