On The Street Where He lived : Phil Lynott (Repeat)

Forty years ago this year, Whiskey in the Jar by Thin Lizzy, broke into the charts in the United Kingdom.

This springboarded a career for lead singer Phil Lynott that stretched worldwide and outlasted his early death.

Maxi and Moya Doherty visit the street where he lived, visiting his bay-side home and relive with his mother Philomena the colourful life of the poet, author, songwriter and rock legend.
