Near to impossible.
If I had to pick one album that best summed up the entirety of the band's sound and legacy, I'd go with Jailbreak. Ya it's their most famous and the one with the 'big hit' but it also contains both 'Warrior' and 'Emerald'... and the rest of it shows the depth of their songwriting and excellent playing by all.
Renegade sucked.

Vagabonds is so fucking good and you never see it (original LP) anywhere.
Black Rose was like one of 5 CDs in my car for at least 3 years, I know that record up and down and love it.
They're all great in different ways, except Renegade (tired, though Angel of Death is great, but not very Lizzy) and Nightlife was not so hot (transitional album, 1st w/Gorham/Robertson). Shades... is a bit of a chore too with lots of filler
I go through phases with that album, which is fucked up cause it's the only Thin Lizzy release that does that to me. Production never fit what they were doing. Fuck you Chris Tsangarides. It's their worse release.

No One Told Him and Mexican Blood are both awesome songs of Renegade. The production truly does suck though.
