Well, this isn't a hardrockalbum but since Thin Lizzy is considered such, I put it in the 70's hardrockcategory. It's the debutalbum from this Irish band and the music is very laid back with strange progressive rhythms here and there. They were formed in Dublin in 1969 by Eric Bell and Eric Wrixon (b.1947) wich both hade played in Them. They went to see a gig by the band Orphanage featuring Brian Downey and Phil Lynott and after the show suggested them to join their new band. The band released a single in 1970, "The Farmer" which sold 283 copies. Wrixon left the band before the single was released.
