Description: MY BOY The Philip Lynott Story by Philomena Lynott with Jackie Hayden. 1st edition. Published by Hot Press in Dublin in 1995. Paperback. Illustrated with photographs from Philomena Lynott's personal collection. Excellent condition. Found in the book and included here is a ticket stub from KING'S CALL, a Phil Lynott tribute show at the Point Theatre in Dublin, 4th Jan 1996. My Boy is the story of Philip Lynott as told by the mother who brought him into the world and who was at his side during the final days of his life. But it is also Philomena Lynott's own story, from the difficult days as a single mother struggling to bring up a young black child in Manchester and Dublin, through the heady success of Thin Lizzy, to the tragic chain of events which ended her son's life and plunged her into a fierce depression from which she only slowly recovered. Illustrated with many previously unpublished photographs from the Lynott family albums, My Boy is an intimate portrait of one of Ireland's greatest rock stars. It is, by turns, moving, celebratory and painful - but . always fiercely honest Bravely, My Boy goes beyond any clichéd tale of sex and drugs and rock n' roll. The story of Philip and Philomena Lynott was much more than that. Because, in the end, My Boy is a love story like no other.
