This extraordinary heavy metal showdown is a 1983 release, entitled Thunder And Lightning, and constitutes, until now, the last album released by Thin Lizzy. It is also their last album with Phil Lynott before he died in 1986. Musically and emotionally it has a big impact in any Thin Lizzy fan, musically because it's a high quality heavy metal album and emotionally because it's the last album to feature Phil Lynott's legendary voice.

"Like Thunder and Lightning, god damn it's so exciting"

The best summation of the album comes from themselves; serving as the final album for Thin Lizzy, it sounds more motivated and full of energy than they had in years. The band found a way to re-invent themselves that sadly we only got to hear on this one release from this version of the band. What a hell of a way to sign off one of the best bands in history; firing on all cylinders, Thin Lizzy ride off into the sunset at full speed and we are left in their dust ruminating what could have been.

I love this album; it's hardly one of TL's best, but the songs have energy, the musicians are skilled. I recommend this album to anyone who enjoys hard rock or classic metal.

I totally agree. And I would like to add that it's also their most metal album.

IMO their best with Jailbreak. TBH Jailbreak is a bit better than this with more hit songs, but both of these albums have only 1-2 weak songs each.
