Thin Lizzy

Thin Lizzy are (or at this point, was) an Irish band formed in Dublin in 1969. They are yet another band with the curse of inconsistent lineups. Protip, if Vivian Campbell or John Sykes have ever been members of your band (both of them were in Thin Lizzy), you are doomed to eternal lineup changes.
Their biggest hits were Jailbreak and The Boys are Back In Town, both of which were from the same album. Their only constant member was their vocalist and bassist Phil Lynott, who was one of the first black Irishmen to gain success in the field of Rock 'n' Roll. Sadly, Phil died in 1986. 
They continue to exist today, but haven't released an album since 1983, a year before their first breakup. In 2016, founding Drummer Brian Downey left, leaving the band with no original members. Their reasoning for not releasing new material is that the people who remain do not wish to release new material under the Thin Lizzy name and the band at this point is a touring act. So essentially, the true Thin Lizzy ended in 1984 and truly ended in 1986 after Phil Lynott's death.
