Over The Hills & Far Away - Gary Moore & The Chieftains, 1987

[@ernestcruz6316]

Perfect song for St. Patrick's Day 2024. And a brilliant performance as well.

[@iargaCI]

The thing about Gary Moore is that he had more heart than the metal players and more technique than the blues players and that's what made him so blisteringly soulful.

[@christianjungbluth3904]

Yes, a musical giant that never ever will be again! But personally not so much, he kicked everybody in the balls who was with him!

[@JinnDante]

Very well said friend.

[@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS]

Neil Murray can be found in the background of countless awesome performances from countless awesome musicians.

[@christianjungbluth3904]

Just unbelievable. There is no much music at once possible anymore...RIP legends and thanks for all!

[@WhenIrelandRocked]

Gary and Paddy, they contributed so much to our musical heritage. Great to see them immortalised together in this performance.

Oh my God! That was just fantastic! One of my favorite Gary Moore songs.

[@jamesbradshaw3389]

What a brilliant rocking son, Paddy looked he was about to jump up and start of a guitar and about to let rip, This sing I think had a reference to Gary dear dear friend and blood brother Phil Lynott I still miss Gary Paddy and of course the greatest rocker of all times Phil Lynott

[@JackDaniels10101]

It's great seeing Gary play with 'Greeny'. R.I.P Gary, you're still missed.

[@johnwhyte2638]

That's what I was thinking, but I noticed during his solo that he has the neck pickup turned the right way. He apparently tried it like this for a while before deciding the magic was in the reverse pickup and had it switched back.

[@RJW14]

Is that Greeny? It looks like a different Les Paul cause it doesn't have the reverse neck pup.

[@liys540]

@@RJW14 but you see the stretch under the bridge pickup

It's already very Irish, in fact the whole album has a celtic influence to it.

[@irmasil3]

If you wanna understand RARE, the neck pickup of the Greeny is actually NOT flipped here. That was just for a very short period of time when Gary was trying to figure out if he wants to "fix" the guitar or not.

Saw Gary on the after the war tour in March 1989 he was a true guitar hero sadly gone but not forgotten!

[@elliottg.1954]

Is that Greeny's Les Paul? Tragic that we'll never see the likes of this again; The Chieftains are thoroughly enjoying themselves with a song practically made for them. Gary and Phil Lynott liked a bit of Irish legend and intrigue, but who doesn't. Gary was very savvy, flexible and intuitive. That's why he remained relevant and popular for as long as he did. If people wouldn't have expected this to work, it fecking did, because it's folk rock gone metal. That backing band are session musicians or Gary's boys? We can't ask Gay Byrne now (RIP).

I see Neil Murray on bass and this was 1987? Neil played on the Whitesnake album at this point and then toured with the Japanese band Vow Wow around Europe, busy bass player

[@maxg.-musician02]

This was actually 1988. The giveaways being Neil Carter with short hair and that Gary had released the Wild Frontier album 'last year' (in '87). Gary and Neil went to Ireland at the beginning of '88 to start working on material for the After The War album, so this performance is possibly from around then? Neil Murray would, of course, join Tony Iommi and Cozy Powell a year later, in Black Sabbath.

[@elliottg.1954]

Is that Neil Murray on bass? Following the Wild Frontier album (1986/87), Gary would produce After the War (1989) before leaving hard rock and heavy metal to play blues. His first blues album released in 1990 became his highest-selling record ever (Platinum). Got to see him live with Neil Carter in Hannover in Sept 1992 and I remember the venue was changed to the Stadionsporthalle. Gobsmacked at Gary in his new red waistcoat and blues songs but he was outstanding for fifty minutes. Gary's Greeny guitar, 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard, was front and centre on its stand on stage before Gary came on. I didn''t realise it was the Greeny until years later. Oddly, he used a drum track for the Wild Frontier album, but took Eric Singer (drums) and Bob Daisley( bass) on tour. RIP Gary.
