We were on the road so much and then in recording studios that we practically lived out of each other's pockets. We were like these great best friends and brothers all at the same time.
You knew Phil so well, while watching the documentary were there revelations about him or insights into his character that resonated with you or did it just solidify your impressions and your relationship with him and his character? If you get enough friends around him, just say, "Well, that doesn't make any difference, man, because you're just such a cool guy so forget about it." But he had so many friends growing up in Ireland that the whole color thing just was not a factor, even though he saw nobody like himself at all for years and years. Okay, I'm a little on the lonely side here. I think with some person, it might have affected them with negative impact, but I think with Phil, he grew up with the positive impact.
In Ireland, there were none and I kept thinking, how do you do that? How do you grow up in a place where you are the only one and that's got to affect your personality in some way, shape or form. I even noticed that myself on these early tours that we did with Thin Lizzy, I would look around just coming in from England and America and all that, where the color faces are everywhere. And some of that is growing up in a country where you are literally the only colored face. What turned Phil Lynott into Phil Lynott. Scott Gorham: Well, I think the main thrust of the story was how a guy like Phil Lynott grew up. The following is an interview with Scott Gorham, who continues the serve the Thin Lizzy legacy to this day.įor people that don't know Phil Lynott as deeply as you do, what story does the new documentary tell?
