Thin Lizzy - Johnny The Fox (Deluxe Edition) (2011)

Universal Music is proud to announce the imminent release of deluxe expanded edition of Thin Lizzy album - "Johnny The Fox". These classic album was remixed, remastered and put together by original band member Scott Gorham and Joe Elliott (Def Leppard)and contains a remastered version of the original disc and a second disc of rare bonus tracks. Released in 1976 "Johnny the Fox" was Thin Lizzy's seventh studio album. The album was written and recorded while bassist/vocalist Phil Lynott was recovering from a bout of hepatitis that put him off the road halfway through the Jailbreak tour. 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 highlights the twin guitar attack of Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson and Lynott's own songwriting - the songs on offer revealing a more focused craftsmanship. The overall tone of the album is looser than previous albums. It contains the all time classic "Don't Believe a Word" and other Lizzy staples. The deluxe version contains a BBC session from the time as well as previously unreleased tracks.
