Like the good-bad characters in its songs, Thin Lizzy is no better than it should be. Catering to the moderate-hard-rock mainstream, the band's music has changed remarkably little over the last five albums: a scrappy, often insouciant blend of cantering melodies, crunching chords and colorful arrangements. If the members of Lizzy are not particularly innovative, they do explore their chosen territory with uncommon flair, polishing their reliable style a little more each year. As a result, Bad Reputation is a fine, solid album.
This was the first Thin Lizzy album I bought way back in the day. With great vocals by Phil Lynott and a twin guitar attack this is classic rock n roll at the top of its game. Out of all of the Lizzy cd's to buy, when I first started replacing vinyl and cassettes (back in the early 90's) this was the very first that I did so. If you are new to the band and are wondering where to start this would be a fine choice, it is simply one of, if not the best Thin Lizzy cd made. Check it out, you shouldn't be disappointed.
