With over 500 Star Tracks listed on the Friday Music Spot, I'm often convinced we have had a band before only to discover we haven't. Today's band I was sure we'd had previously. It was along time ago, so I've excused myself, because while one of their songs has featured it turns out it was from a tribute concert for the late Phil Lynott with Gary Moore & Friends performing 'Don't Believe a Word'.

Fifty years ago tomorrow Thin Lizzy released their Jailbreak album. Full of great tracks, I've selected the 'Cowboy Song', a particular favourite. Phil Lynott wrote and sang the song, Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson share the guitar work with Brian Downey on drums. 

Presenting the official visualiser video for 'Cowboy Song' >

Want to see Thin Lizzy 'live' - there's a 1978 video from Sydney, Australia (great backdrop) with Gary Moore now in the band and a faster track than the original. Click here. 

Fans note: Opening very soon in London, before touring the country, a new musical called 'Moonlight'.
