Thin Lizzy, Massacre. From Live and Dangerous, 1977.
I was just blaring this in my car and had to share. I got my version on a comp courtesy of Classic Rock Magazine’s March issue. You can find the studio version of Massacre on Lizzy’s 1976 record, Johnny the Fox.
Dave Carroll and the Sons of Maxwell, United Breaks Guitars.
Despite eyewitness accounts that United Airlines baggage handlers carelessly smashed musician Dave Carroll’s $3,500 dollar 710 Taylor guitar, the airline refused to foot the $1,200 repair cost. So Carroll wrote a song about it. Response to Carroll’s United Breaks Guitars has been so huge that the airline now says they will now work with Carroll to make things right.
