JAKARTA - Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell was a guest on the BBC show, "The Rock Show With Allah Walker" during the "Rock God" segment. Vivian chose Thin Lizzy frontman Phil Lynott and stated about her choice.
"Phil is really a rock star. When Phil enters the room, everyone pays attention and he catches everyone's attention," said Vivian.
"It was an inspiration to me and my musician friends," continued Vivian. "Growing in Ireland, in Belfast in the 70s, it was not a fun place. But to watch this band, Thin Lizzy, got this international success, appearing on an event like 'Top Of The Pops', but they remained a cool band when everyone did disco music.
"I often meet Phil Lynott. I have a band called Sweet Savage. We are still teenagers. We often performed in a pub in Dublin called McGonagles, and on several occasions Phil performed with us and performed Lizzy's song, which obviously really helped our credibility.
"This really helps us to respect this man and this band and say that it is possible to go beyond what we see around us in our daily lives and to dream big. Thank you, Phil Lynott."
Vivian has previously praised her duties as a tour guitarist for Thin Lizzy more than a decade ago for inspiring her to launch the Last In Line, whose original intention was to celebraterockias James Dio's early work by reuniting the original DIO lineup members.
After playing a show featuring a setlist consisting of the first three DIO albums, the band decided to move forward and make new music with the same tone.
