Not coincidentally, this was the exact moment that Def Leppard became pussies.
It's already been established that John Taylor is a talented bass player, and fully capable of playing decent music when he's not surrounded by the likes of Simon LeBonBon and Nick Rhodes. As for the Thin Lizzy guys, they were looking for any way to stay relevant at the time. Sadly it didn't work, and Lynott ended up killing himself as a result a few years later. But Taylor eventually started playing with bands that were based on guitar sounds, and not synthesizers. (Power Station, Neurotic Outsiders)
Funny though, that members of Thin Lizzy had previously worked with Steve Jones of the Sex Pistols, and that both Andy & John Taylor would later work with him.
By default, wouldn't that make the Sex Pistols the greatest band of all time?
