Thin Lizzy 's Jailbreak, released in 1976, is one of the greatest rock albums of all time – and it was also the album that saved them from getting dropped by their label and catapulted them to global fame. Featuring classic tracks such as The Boys Are Back In Town, Jailbreak and the celtic-inspired Emerald, it remains as hard-hitting and hungry as it was the day it was released. Here, guitarist Scott Gorham gives a track-by-track account of how this legendary album was recorded - from the guitars and gear used to Phil Lynotts lyrical inspirations, Brian Robertson's guitar work and much more! An unmissable deep dive into an iconic album with the guitarist who wrote and recorded many of its greatest moments .
