My favorite way to listen to them without skipping through their entire catalog.

This song originated when Gary Moore was with the band. After he left, Brian Robertson took over and was the guitarist credited on this album.

Supposedly, Lizzy had recorded a version of this song with Gary Moore playing. When they were making the album, Brian Robertson played this solo. The story goes that they liked Gary Moore's solo better, so they lifted it from the earlier recording and pasted it onto this track.

The alternate story is that Robbo played the solo but based it on Moore's solo.

Brian Robertson played it live, a version similar to what is on the album.

In the CD release booklet, under the credits for this song it gives a Special Thanks to Gary Moore.
