“Tonight there’s gonna be trouble…” (Thin Lizzy, 1976)

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Carrying on with tradition, here’s Irish rock band Thin Lizzy performing one of their most popular tunes.

“Jailbreak” comes from the 1976 L.P. of the same name and was written by lead singer & bass guitarist Phil Lynott. Below you’ll find Thin Lizzy on the UK’s Top of the Pops. The clip begins with a nice look at the top 30 UK artists for the week. And after some detective work I’ll pin the week at: July 31, 1976.
