Thin Lizzy are set to record their first album in nearly 30 years, and their first without original frontman Phil Lynott, HotPress.com reports. Guitarist Scott Gorham said the group will work with producer Kevin Shirley on the new album, and that recording will likely start next month. “I’ll be going out to Los Angeles at the end of the month to work on some songs with [guitarist] Damon [Johnson] and then I think we will start recording in October in our producer Kevin Shirley’s studio,” Gorham said.
“We are all excited about the new record but especially [vocalist] Ricky [Warwick] and Damon, they just can’t wait to start recording!” said Gorham. “You have got six guys there that are chomping at the bit that can’t wait to get this thing going.”
The current Thin Lizzy lineup includes Gorham, Warwick and Johnson along with founding member Brian Downey, longtime keyboardist Darren Wharton and bassist Marco Mendoza. Lynott died in 1986 at age 36. Thin Lizzy’s last studio album, Thunder and Lightning, was released in 1983.

Justin Hayward: “Broken Dream” (1996)
Angelic-voiced Moody Blues lead vocalist Hayward sets aside his trademark red Gibson electric for some nylon strings on this gorgeous ballad from a 1996 solo album.
The only thing that mars the performance is the apparent absence of a live drummer. Programmed tracks, assuming that’s what he used here, are inexcusable for such an established artist.
Having said that it’s a marvelous song, sung from a wizened perspective, about a midlife crossroads.

Mystery Jets: “Greatest Hits” (2012)
Breakups are always messy when there are records involved…
You can take ‘The Lexicon of Love’ away but I’m keeping Remain in Light’
You can take away ‘It’s a Shame About Ray’ but I’m holding on to ‘Country
Life’
You can keep ‘No Need to Argue’ and I’ll keep ‘The Aeroplane Over the Sea’
But hold on to ‘The Boy with the Arab Strap’ ’cause I’m holding on to ‘Village
Green’I don’t know if the knot just needs untangling ’cause the tapes get stuck all the time
Either way I’m keeping ‘Double Nickels on the Dime’These were our greatest hits (Shalalalalalalala Shalalalala)
The best of me and you(Shalalalalalalala Shalalalala)
These were our greatest hits (Shalalalalalalala Shalalalala)
The best of me and youI still remember buying you ‘Band on the Run’ on the first day that we kissed
But you always did prefer ‘McCartney I’ because it reminded you of being a kidNo way your having ‘This Nation’s Saving Grace’ you only listen to it when your pissed
But when you sober up it’s always “why the fuck are you still listening to Mark E. Smith?”I don’t know if the knot just needs untangling or if we forgot which way’s up and which way is down
But still the tape keeps going round and roundThese were our greatest hits (Shalalalalalala lalalalala)
The best of me and you (Shalalalalalala Shalalalala)
The best of me and you
Of me and youStill the tape keeps going round and round
The tape keeps going round
Every Moment Has A Song
