Thin Lizzy - Johnny The Fox LP

Johnny The Fox is the seventh studio album from Thin Lizzy, originally released in 1976 and widely regarded as one of the band’s strongest mid-70s records.

Featuring standout tracks such as “Johnny The Fox Meets Jimmy The Weed,” “Don’t Believe a Word,” and “Massacre,” the album showcases Phil Lynott’s storytelling lyrics alongside the sharp interplay between guitarists Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson. The record balances gritty rock energy with melodic sophistication, capturing Thin Lizzy at a creative peak.

With its mix of driving riffs, melodic hooks and character-driven songwriting, Johnny The Fox remains an essential part of the band’s catalogue and a key release in 1970s British and Irish rock history. It further cemented Thin Lizzy’s reputation as one of the most influential hard rock bands of their era.
