Irish hard rockers Thin Lizzy enjoyed a critical and popular success throughout the late 1970's and 1980's; an interesting fact when one considers that these were the very years that the anarchist punk of bands like the Sex Pistols were changing the face of rock and roll. Perfecting a brand of masculine, hard rock rebellion, Thin Lizzy managed to top the U.K. charts time and again. This programme captures the group in concert in 1981 performing a selection of their best known songs.
