The first biography written with the cooperation of the Lynott Estate, Cowboy Song is the acclaimed study of the extraordinary life and times of Ireland's first rock star. Thin Lizzy's singer, songwriter and guiding spirit, Philip Lynott was a complex, contradictory character who combined the instincts of a wild man with the soul of a poet.
Drawing on scores of new and exclusive interviews with family, friends, band mates and collaborators, Cowboy Song is the definitive life of a multi-faceted rock icon, and an intimate portrait of a much-loved father, son and husband.
'An outstanding piece of work . . . the definitive biography' Irish Independent
'An affectionate, impeccably researched biography . . . Cowboy Song does Philip Parris Lynott very proud indeed' Mail on Sunday
'An admirable book . . . there are times when Graeme Thomson's prose reaches astute heights and stirs recognitions' Irish Times
'Heads and shoulders above the usual rock hagiography' Sunday Telegraph
'Packs a real emotional punch' Spectator
'Outstanding' Belfast Telegraph
'A ribald, authentic, entertaining tale . . . This is no eulogy, but an honest, often painful account of the price of star power' Irish Examiner
'Meticulously researched, richly detailed . . . a compelling read' Classic Rock
