THIN LIZZY – Jailbreak (2020 Reissue) – LP – 180g Vinyl

Description

LP – 180 Gram Vinyl

When Thin Lizzys Jailbreak was released on March 26, 1976, rock n roll was at a fascinating crossroads. The old-school who led 60s rock (The Who, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones) were still standing but limping along, already sounding like nostalgia acts to younger listeners. While the next generation of arena-rock groups (Aerosmith, Kiss) were grounded in a more flamboyant, party till you puke sensibility that would soon be subsumed by the ascendent heavy metal movement.

Jailbreak would prove as foundational to the future sound of metal as AC/DCs High Voltage or Motrheads Motrhead, just as Thin Lizzys no-nonsense musical approach informed the sensibility of punk. Regarded as one of the bands all time classic albums,Jailbreak was a hit both sides of the Atlantic and contains the ultimate Lizzy anthem inThe Boys are Back in Town.
