Thin Lizzy recently unleashed the official lyric video for the Eric Bell Acoustic version of the legendary “Slow Blues.”
The newly recorded “Slow Blues E.B (Eric Bell Acoustic Version)” showcases a seamless blend of past and present, featuring fresh electric and acoustic guitar parts recently laid down by founding member Eric Bell at the Oh Yeah! Centre studio in Belfast.

Philip Lynott on Lizzy’s early early breaks; taken from the “Renegade” documentary:
“… when we were going over on the boat we met John Peel [renowned Radio 1 DJ], it was a real stroke… I walked up to him on the boat and said “listen I play in a group called Thin Lizzy, any chance of getting us on the show, he liked the name and said look us up when you get over and I’ll get you a session for the programme. So we had one contact“
Thin Lizzy always had a strong work ethic and in a future Lizzy mailer we’ll be talking to Eric Bell in detail about how this made a difference to the band’s success.

We are thrilled to announce the release of “Thin Lizzy – Acoustic Sessions,” a ground breaking new frontline album that brings together the legendary voice of Philip Lynott, the masterful guitar work of founding member Eric Bell and the powerful original drum takes of Brian Downey. This unique project offers fans a rare opportunity to experience Thin Lizzy‘s classic hits like never before, with Lynott‘s previously unheard vocal takes perfectly complemented by Bell‘s fresh acoustic arrangements and Downey‘s dynamic drumming. Drawing on material from the band’s iconic Decca era, the album revisits tracks from Thin Lizzy‘s first three albums, presenting them in an intimate, stripped-down format that is sure to captivate both long time fans and a new generation of listeners.
