  • Scott Gorham (born William Scott Gorham, March 17, 1951 in Glendale, California) is an American guitarist and songwriter. He is best known as a member of Thin Lizzy. Though not a founding member of that group, Gorham has played with Thin Lizzy for most of its existence (from 1974 to the group's breakup in 1983, then from 1996 onward following a reform), and is generally regarded as a key part of the group's sound. After Thin Lizzy broke up, Gorham joined Phenomena II, where he met Leif Johansen (ex A-HA, Phenomena, Far Corporation) with whom he formed 21 Guns, which has released three albums. He has also played with Asia, the Rollins Band, and Supertramp. Gorham's sister Vicki married Supertramp's drummer Bob Siebenberg. Siebenberg, Patrick Landreville and Gorham were members of the 1960s improvisational rock band RHS. In 1997, he played guest guitars on the track "I'm Alive" from Psycho Motel's album, Welcome to the World. Members from 21 Guns also played with this band, namely drummer Mike Sturgis and vocalist (Hans Olav) Solli. He reformed Thin Lizzy with John Sykes in 1997, playing various tours in tribute to founding singer/songwriter and bassist Phil Lynott, who died in 1986. The tour was named the 20/20 tour - 20 dates for 20 years. They are currently on hiatus due to Syke's departure. Initially, Scott used a Gibson Les Paul Deluxe guitar with mini humbuckers. He then bought a '59 Les Paul in Boston, which became his main guitar until Thin Lizzy broke up in 1984. Nowadays, Scott uses a Fender Stratocaster guitar with 100-watt 1970's modded Marshall Amplifiers. Even before Thin Lizzy split up, Scott started using Fender Stratocasters, and now almost always uses one. As of 2007, Scott is an endorsee of the German amp company, ENGL. His current setup is either two or four E650 Ritchie Blackmore Signature heads, his modified Marshall, and four standard ENGL cabinets. Scott is married to Christine Gorham.

  • Scott Gorham on Thin Lizzyn kitaristina tunnetuksi tullut yhdysvaltalainen muusikko.

  • スコット・ゴーハム（William Scott Gorham、1951年3月17日 - ）は、アメリカ合衆国カリフォルニア州グレンデール出身、シン・リジィの元ギタリスト。シン・リジィの創設メンバーではないが、1974年から1983年の解散までプレイした。 先に渡っていた兄のつてを頼ってロンドンに赴いた際、偶然シン・リジィがギタリストのオーディションを行っているのを知る。リジィの曲を聞いたこともなければ、存在さえも全く知らなかったが、見知らぬ土地で切羽詰っていたゴーハムはオーディションに参加する。ギターは複製物しか持っておらず、さらにブロンドの長髪といういでたちで奇異の目で見られたというが、セッションで波長が合い、その晩のうちにフィル・ライノットから加入を依頼された。 同時期に参加したブライアン・ロバートソンとともに、リジィの代名詞ともなるツインギター編成を支えた。ロバートソン脱退後はゲイリー・ムーア・スノウィー・ホワイト・ジョン・サイクスとコンビを組み続けた。 解散後は1991年に「21 Guns」を結成。アルバムを3枚リリース。他にもエイジアやロリンズ・バンドともプレイしている。 現在はジョン・サイクスと共にシン・リジィを再結成。ライヴ活動を精力的に行っている。
