Affectionate but honest portrait of Thin Lizzy, arguably the best hard rock band to come out of Ireland. Starting with the remix of the classic album Jailbreak by Scott Gorham and Brian Downie, the film takes us through the rollercoaster ride that is the story of Thin Lizzy. From early footage of singer Phil Lynott in Ireland in his pre-Lizzy bands the Black Eagles and Orphanage, it follows his progress as he, guitarist Eric Bell and drummer Brian Downie form the basic three-piece that was to become Thin Lizzy - a name taken from the Beano. Using original interviews with Bell, Downie, the man who signed them and their first manager, it traces the early years leading to the recruitment of guitarists Brian 'Robbo' Robertson and Scott Gorham - the classic line-up. The film uses a number of stills, some seen on TV for the first time, archive from contemporary TV shows and a range of tracks both well known and not so famous.

Philip Parris Lynott took the world by storm when he dominated the stage with his most notable rock band Thin Lizzy. The Irish frontman battled his way to the top whilst fighting prejudice. He achieved fame and fortune whilst being a member of the band Thin Lizzy. Their hit songs such as Whiskey In The Jar, The Boys are Back and many more solidified their names in musical history. Philip was a consistent member of the renowned band Thin Lizzy and was arguably the driving force for its success. Despite the fame and fortune, Phil found himself heading down a dark path that would ultimately jeopardize his career.

On August 19th, 2005, on what would have been the eve of his 56th birthday, a statue of Phil Lynott was unveiled in Dublin’s Grafton Street by his mother. There to witness the event were members of Thin Lizzy from throughout the band’s career. The following evening, they joined forces under the leadership of Gary Moore for a concert that paid tribute to Lynott’s memory.
