Stealers Wheel was a British pop/rock band formed in London in 1972 by Joe Egan and Gerry Rafferty. Thin Lizzy is now widely recognized as one of the first hard rock bands to employ double lead guitar harmony, a technique later refined and popularized by groups such as Iron Maiden. The band reunited without him in 1999 for a European tour and live album. He died in 1986, a victim of drug abuse. After the band broke up in the mid-80s, Lynott began a solo career.

During the late 1970s and early 80s, Thin Lizzy played to a rabid fanbase but was unable to break into mainstream markets. Fighting (1975) was their first album success, but the next album, Jailbreak, was a smash hit thanks to the single "The Boys Are Back in Town", now their most remembered hit. Their first taste of success was the 1973 hit single, Whiskey in the Jar, a cover of a traditional Irish song. Lynott remains one of rather few black men to achieve significant success in hard rock.
