i had the song downloaded, but my computer crapped on me and i lost it. i've been trying to replace it, but haven't been able to find the same version on kazaa. most of what i find is someone else, that is labeled as thin lizzy. i just tried searching under gary moore, and found the instrumental version, but still can't find the version i had. i did buy the retrospective cd off of amazon. thanks to all of you for your help. it's a great song, and i really do want to have it. thanks again.
