Song of the day for January 4, 2025

Jailbreak by Thin Lizzy is today’s featured song.

In 1985, 36-year-old singer, songwriter, and bassist, Phil Lynott, died of heart failure, ending a spectacular run fronting one of Ireland’s great bands, Thin Lizzy. Lynott, who co-founded the group in 1969, wrote such timeless hits as “The Boys Are Back in Town” and “Jailbreak.”
