Reuploaded - the mp4 conversion compressed the .mov file into distorted shreds. Bought the album on the strength of "The Boys Are Back In Town" and it remains a favourite to this day. One great track after another. The title track blew me away - the screaming guitar intro hook and the raucous chorus - brilliant. One of the best live acts of their generation, I caught them on the (I think) Johnny the Fox tour. Damn tight band. Was a sad day when Phil Lynott passed. Still missed.

The Jailbreak album remains classic, and the title track was a riproaring snorter - all balls and fire. Righteous. Still gives me chills. 

Backing is a Garageband processed midi file, vocals through SM58 mixed down and mastered on the iMac. Images from Google search, large files. No copyright infringement over song or image ownership rights intended, though any new copyright arising from this mashup of music and image I am happy to retain. Rock on!
