3.5 star debut The music lacks that ear catching dual guitar attack that is so easily defined as belonging to Lizzy, and the music is a bit softer, on occasion, and less hard rock than a melange of bluesy and folk rock. Early Thin Lizzy is a very different beast than the Lizzy that became famous, proto-metal gods. But while Lizzy haven't found their voice, they still write some interesting and, occasionally, heavy ("Look What the Wind Blew In") music. "Eire" is an album highlight, with its fairly slow beat and well done vocals over a background of soft guitar, as is "Clifton Grange Hotel"'s soulful, bluesy, and teasing guitar line. All in all, if you love Lizzy and want a fairly easy going, laid back experience, then this is a good choice. It has its hard rockin' moments (closer "Remembering" varies between ballad like verses and a hard rock, driving chorus), but it's not as aggressive as other albums.
