Available on 2LP green vinyl or 4LP black vinyl set
Description
Irish rock band Thin Lizzy released their debut studio album on April 30, 1971. The album was followed by the New Day EP, produced and recorded by Nick Tauber at Decca Studios and released in August of the same year. It was the band’s first album with the original lineup of Phil Lynott (bas, vocal), Eric Bell (guitar) and Brian Downey (drums). This album was Thin Lizzy putting all they had into the music and taking risks. It’s passionate, high-energy and distinctive. Celebrating its 55th anniversary, the deluxe 2LP set features the original album alongside a brand-new stereo mix by Richard Whittaker, pressed on green vinyl. The super deluxe 4LP set includes the original album, the rare New Day EP in new stereo mix by Richard Whittaker, plus 15 previously unreleased tracks, including the studio track, “Beggar’s Song,” with LPs 2, 3 & 4 all appearing on vinyl for the first time. Pressed on standard black vinyl.

Artist Bio
When scrolling down a list of debut LPs by rock’s heaviest hitters, Thin Lizzy is as unheralded as they come. Long before the group’s trademark “twin-guitar” sound was born and anthems like “The Boys Are Back In Town” became instant hall-of-fame material, the street tough Irish group was a dynamic power trio consisting of guitarist Eric Bell, singing bass player Philip Lynott, and sticksman Brian Downey. Forming only a year before their monumental signing to world-famous Decca Records, Thin Lizzy fused folk, hard rock, lyrical poetry, and a dose of Celtic lore in a heady brew that despite its potency, sold poorly at the time of release. Often ignored apart from hardcore Lizzy devotees around the globe, Light In The Attic is incredibly proud to produce a much-needed vinyl-only re-release of Thin Lizzy.
