Black Rose (A Rock Legend) by Thin Lizzy, released in 1979, is notable for featuring guitarist Gary Moore, whose dynamic playing helped shape the album’s distinctive sound. The record includes the hit single “Waiting for an Alibi” and the heartfelt ballad “Sarah,” written for Phil Lynott’s daughter. The album’s centerpiece is the closing medley “Roisin Dubh (Black Rose),” which weaves together traditional Irish melodies into a hard rock epic, reflecting Lynott’s deep connection to his Irish heritage. Black Rose is widely regarded as one of the band’s strongest studio efforts.
