Guitarist Scott Gorham, Brain Downey (drums) and Darren Wharton (keyboards) have recruited Ricky Warwick (Almighty) to take on the challenge of filling the shoes of the late Phil Lynott in a new edition of Thin Lizzy.  Marco Mendoza (bass) and Damon Johnson, guitarist from the Alice Cooper band complete the revived lineup.  Previous contributors Vivian Campbell of Def Leppard and Whitesnake veteran John Sykes are not onboard this time around.
Plans are for the group to start recording in LA at the start of September with producer Jerry Shirley guiding the project.  Gorham says he's excited about what the future holds, telling Hot Press, 'You have six guys that are chomping at the bit. We can't wait to get this thing going.'
