Thin Lizzy is the first studio album by Irish hard rock band Thin Lizzy, released in 1971.
All songs written by Phil Lynott, except where stated.
When the album was repackaged for CD in 1990, the four tracks that comprised the rare "New Day" EP were added:
On 11 October 2010, a new remastered and expanded version of Thin Lizzy was released. This version features the following bonus tracks:
Eduardo Rivadavia of Allmusic described the album as "surprisingly mellow", but that a number of songs sound "confused and unfinished". However, he did describe "Look What the Wind Blew In" as a "hint of things to come", and that the bonus track "Dublin" from the "New Day" EP contained "Lynott's first great lyric".
The song 'Honesty is No Excuse' was covered by Cass McCombs on his 2013 album 'Big Wheel and Others'.
