Bad Reputation is the eighth studio album by Irish band Thin Lizzy, released in 1977 (see 1977 in music). As the front cover suggests, most of the tracks feature only three-quarters of the band, with guitarist Brian Robertson only playing on tracks 3 and 6 (despite a credit on track 8). He had missed most of the previous tour following an injury sustained in a brawl and this album turned out to be his last studio effort with Lizzy. "Dancing in the Moonlight" was a UK hit single.
The title track is featured as a playable track in the video game Guitar Hero II.
