Philip,
Gary and Scott flying out to Nassau, Bahamas, for a two week working
holiday. They took other musicians with them - Huey Lewis and Mark
Nauseef - and worked on Phil´s solo album as well as a track titled "Spanish
guitar" which will probably be Gary Moore´s next single on the MCA label.
During this time Brian Downey went over to Ireland and spent his holiday
quietly with his family. From there he joined the other boys in America
for a week of rehearsals and the tour. |

weeks with Dave on guitar and kept Midge on keyboards and took that
line-up over to Japan. Info from Thin Lizzy Fan Club Newsletter No.9 |
