Perhaps you might be interested in this. Japanese all-girl metal band LOVEBITES have a Gary Moore inspired solo in the middle of a Thrash Metal song. The guitarist who plays the song is a big Gary Moore fan. She uses a Les Paul for this song, whereas she usually plays her Dean Guitar, as she is sponsored by Dean. Anyway, here it is if you want to take a look. Break the Wall: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4HGYYuBZdGBo7c&ab_channel=LB_WOLFPACK

[@bennigh82]

Never clicked a video so quick in my life ❤

[@stevemash7505]

Same here!

[@samykouki]

Same! 😂

[@jw_au]

Ditto

[@ArthurMorgan_5327]

me too！

[@assafnrose]

😂 my thoughts exactly

[@dagoelius]

Gary had the finest vibrato of any guitar player. Many overlooked his formidable singing skills too.

[@arthurblackhistoric]

You're not the only one whose playing was forever altered by hearing Gary play the Blues the way he did. As a long time Bluesman I'd been looking for something to supercharge my playing and I really didn't know what I was looking for. The song I heard from Still Got The Blues was Oh Pretty Woman, which I heard on the radio one Sunday afternoon. The first solo in that song was played by Albert King, whose style I immediately recognised, then Gary comes in and suddenly my hair was standing straight up! I straight away asked my wife and daughter for that album for my birthday which was a few weeks off. My wife bought me another Gary Moore album that had been reduced in price, Dirty Fingers, and she gave me that. She'd given me the impression that it was the only present I was getting . . so I asked sheepishly: Is there another present coming? Then my young daughter gave me Still Got The Blues. That CD never left my stereo for weeks! For Christmas they did the same thing. I got some live video from Gary's Rock years, then my daughter gave me An Evening Of The Blues.

[@paulbingham7666]

Gary Moore was a fantastic Guitar Player. I got to see him live at Birmingham NEC in the UK way back in 1992. He made his Gibson LP and Soldano amps sound absolutely sublime! It was a shame he never got the recognition he deserved in the USA!

[@Dreyno]

His control at the insane volumes he played at is incredible. So loud that any extraneous noises will be really obvious and yet he played so clean. Amazing.

[@GETPICKER]

You are a great teacher. I have played for over 45 years, and I could learn a lot from your style of teaching. More please😁

[@davidburns9219]

I saw him play live. Man, he was a dynamo on stage. His guitar licks were so powerful and soulful. One of the all time great guitarists.

[@toneranger]

Great to see Gary getting the recognition he so deserves. His early 90s blues 💙 is off the scale, and his rock stuff from the 80s is so good, stock strat and a marshall or soldano and some delay,such a legend !!

[@steveo44]

My word what a guitarist he was!. I was blown away when blues alive was released. Such a performer and sadly missed. Great intro too. Not many people can pull off a Gary Moore solo so well!

[@dreamscuba]

I first came across Gary Moore when I borrowed Corridors of Power from the local record library. I was blown away and hooked straight away. I saw Gary Moore 4 times live - 2 in his rock years and 2 in his blues years. Amazing live. He has been the biggest music influence on my guitar playing, not that I can play anything like him. Great video. Thank you.

[@MrScary52]

Moore is one of the best...... Mr. Moore, always on my heart

[@greekfreak1980]

What makes Gary Moore stand out is: he could play a face melting rock song the one moment and then go on stage with somebody like B B. King and jam some tasty Blues. There are very few players who can do that. Oh another thing about him: despite being mostly associated with the vintage Les Pauls, he was in fact playing Strats just as often, not to mention he used a wide variety of different guitar models during the 80's. From EMG equipped Charvels & Jackson, to Hamer & Ibanez and he was one of thr first famous guitarists playing PRS Guitars, back when they were still a small custom builder.

[@subodhsdhakal2441]

I am a huge huge fan of Gary, and I got enrolled in your couple of courses as I can see the streaks of Gary playing in you.The passion you play is no less than Gary....keep teaching us and moving.

[@waynetozer3881]

The Still Got the Blues album really turned me onto the Blues. Gary is one of my top 3 favourite guitarists. I would love to see you do an ‘In the style of Gary Moore’ course. ❤️👍🇦🇺🎸

[@raffaeletronu7846]

I just adore Gary Moore. Corey your lessons are a real blessing Greetings from Sardinia

[@MichaelSorensen-bl3ec]

Gary was great. He had such an aggressive attack. And he had perfect pitch, never heard him hit a sour note, his bends were always right on pitch.

[@dobiqwolf]

Gary Moore is why I picked up an electric guitar over 20 years ago. I am always happy to see him covered.

[@garyhunter2013]

This is why Corey, you are the best! Few people give Gary Moore the credit he receives. Absolutely among the best guitarists of all time. He just wasn’t a blue rock player. Back in 1975 he played with Colosseum II, and did a Jazz-Rock Fussion Album called Electric Savage. He could play anything and proved that as he played with Thin Lizzy and BBM which stood for Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce, and Gary Moore thus the Groups Name BBM!

[@leonleon3773]

check out Greg Lake live cd from hammersmith & G force

[@josevalles2136]

Gary Moore Rocks ! And so do you !! When I saw Gary Moore , only the best solos , on KZbin… I was like , wTF ? Who is this guy ?!!! Guitar Hero for sure !

[@tgmurph8511]

Roy Buchanan’s the Messiah will come again by Gary at Montreux Jazz is chilling.

[@greigclement9081]

I loved Gary Moore's rock career in the 80s when I was a teen, but you tell he really got reinvigorated with the Blues path. He was extreemely fortunate to be able to record with some Blues greats before they passed.

[@stevecosta]

Love and miss the Great Gary Moore!

[@kaindog1007]

He could make a guitar cry with emotion and sound like he is ripping its head of at the same time. Genius.

[@priceamp]

One of the things I'm always amazed with Gary's playing is not only his speed, but he primarily only used his index and middle fingers and occasionally his ring finger but hardly ever his pinky. And his index and middle finger were soooooo fast.

[@JamesSpeiser]

meh

[@guitarjunkie7124]

Gary Moore is my ultimate Guitar God. So underrated in the US!

[@FerdinandEphrem]

Whoa, I have to say, your teaching style in this video has opened my eyes to a whole new level of appreciation for Moore's playing. He's definitely got some competition now, thanks to you! 😄

[@fritzzeiher8107]

Many, many thanks for this, for remembering the great Gary Moore, Corey. 👌

[@shalomshalom735]

fantastic solo, great lesson. LOTS to learn from this. Thanks much for this video Corey.

[@RossMurphy]

Very nice, thanks. Every lesson I get helps shape my style

[@nelsono4315]

I saw Gary twice in his hard rock heyday. No one plays like Gary. My number 1 six-stringer hands down.

[@wilmer33086]

Hahaha just saw Gary on the video cover and I had to click the video!!!! Great choice. He’s the reason along with Slash why I have a Les Paul!!!! Love Rock and absolutely with no doubt love Blues!!!! Great video Corey!!!

[@JohnGalt539]

Thanks man, very cool lesson, i am a huge GM fan too, and bought myself a new Gibson Greeny recently, so i play more of Gary's stuff now, appreciate that you put out great lessons for free.

[@gw2031]

I fell in love with Gary Moore at 14 when i first heard parissiene walkways,never recovered, i,ve veen a lead guitarist ever since,ive done the loner still got the blues etc at many gigs but but i have to say " Kibg of tbe blues " for me is Joe Bonamassa, the guy is incredible!

[@kevinhines3487]

Smokin' good stuff. Thanks so much Corey! I remember getting that album too. Gary has some beautiful instrumentals, as well.

[@mikesolomon6130]

I fell in love with guitar because of Carlos Santana and Gary Moore. Thanks for the beautiful lesson!

[@deependguitar777]

This is GOLD! Thank you Corey!!

[@armando181000]

Legend Gary❤❤❤🙏

[@marcmc2873]

That album is definitely one of the greats

[@cooghoublaga7555]

What i loved about Gary apart from his superb guitar playing, was his contageous enthusiasm and energy, you could just see he was having a great time, also he was irish which is always a bonus for me, great lesson thank you Corey !

[@johnmac8084]

This is great Corey, more Gary please 🙏

[@eddiesaenz9291]

Cory I love learning from you! Your Passion for playing this incredible instrument is contagious👍👍👍😃

[@coreycongilio]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@dougbennett7881]

Awesome lesson Corey! Thank you!

[@kevinkrause7900]

Great lesson Corey!

[@yousse132]

A or of wow know Gary Moore for his 90s blues era but his heavy 80s hard rock era is so underrated. In my opinion as good as his blues rock era if not slightly better. You should check out the “end of the world song”. Gary is probably the best.

[@deadhands1981]

Awesome lesson. There are fiery players, but then Gary is fire itself. Nobody touches him in blues rock.

[@precisionbrown6829]

Knew the minute I heard him I started practicing like crazy. I knew the blues really lucky when he took over ❤

[@chriss1492]

I just started watching your videos recently and subscribed. I have expanded my playing already just watching a handful of your arpeggio videos. I appreciate your laidback, humble and clear teaching approach. Great stuff!

[@coreycongilio]

Glad to hear it! There’s always more on the way! Thx for the sub!

[@StephenLewisful]

Great lesson, Corey. Very practical information and directly linked to one of the Greats of the guitar using them in his solos. I steer away from learning licks, thinking about them blocks the information to the brain coming from the ears but I do like to see how your hands look when certain sounds are made. Similar sounds can be made other ways but some lead to the next chord more smoothly.

[@mike5177]

That same cassette blew my mind around the same time. Gary was a monster!

[@larryk3408]

The Mesiah has returned. Nurture the resurrection. Great lesson. More Gary please.

[@massimos6863]

Awesome playing great Tone, great lesson, cheers for that ❤ 🎸 Gray Moore was definitely one of the greatest of our time, eternal memory ❤ 🙏

[@GeauxSaints121]

Great video Corey!

[@edge1289]

Gary’s searing tone, endless sustain, melodic phrasing, magnificent vibrato is sorely missed. At this stage of my life, not many players can move me, Gary could move me with one note.

[@JoseG-2023]

Great lesson! 🤘

[@user-tf5lm6um5y]

Just subscribed to your channel. Impressed by the clarity of your teaching

[@RLB52]

Love it. Thanks.

[@Ogma3bandcamp]

Excellent lesson! SGTB was a game-changer album.

[@Jim-zs8vy]

Corridors of Power was released when I was a kid just starting my guitar journey and Gary became my main influence from that moment on as I explored all of his earlier recordings and everything he did to his all too early demise.

[@stephenhoward2245]

Corey👌 Without question CV Gary was the best rock blues guitarist there's ever been! I lived close to him in Rottingdean England. On the day of his burial a surreal light in the sky appeared ! I took this as he's going home to guitar heaven! This was a genius who like so many appeared ordinary in life. I'm going to study this vid.

[@user-nz5em5wg2h]

You are awsome my brother from Warren 😎

[@dmitriysemeshkin]

Great lesson, this solo really sounds cool!!!Epiphone looks cool!!!

[@BrettAdam1984]

Never heard of him…let’s go!!

[@Humptydumpty122]

Every now and again a truly talented guitarists shines though and gary moore was one of them bless him. I suppose you could say these people are special " gifted or just god damm lucky😂. But one thing is for sure' and that is when you watch and hear them play' you just know." Watching you play the guitar Mr Congilio is mesmerising as you make it just look effortless And your also a great teacher.👍 P.S corey we all know. 😂

[@vasilisandreadis4965]

Thank you!!!!

[@przemyslaw1235]

Gary was and always will my favorite guitaris😊😊❤❤❤❤Pure fire:-)just love his playing.

[@stanesposito2664]

Great lesson! Thanks! 😎

[@petergreen2013]

EXCELLENT TUTORIAL ! Great Job ! Fully agree, GM is best Blues & Rock guitarist of all time

[@limpeacock573]

Sitting here with my cup of joe, guitar slung low, and playing along with your lesson. Great way to kick off Sunday morning! Thank you!

[@coreycongilio]

Love it. Thanks!

[@thebigleone1066]

Man, that tone. Sounds so good and tasty. Thank you Corey. Great lesson.

[@donizetiodiranberaldo1731]

Couldn't agree more! Gary Moore is underrated

[@boabglen]

Thanks for leaving it that little bumb note in there man. Keeps it real 😊

[@nicfabrizio1776]

I’m starting to really enjoy your channel over all the other guitar KZbin channels

[@coreycongilio]

Wow thx!

[@caseylee12]

CRAZY GOOD!!! He and Jeff Beck are my 2 favorite guitarists!

[@robertgarcia3031]

Great lesson, thanks.

[@SB-mb8fx]

A new lesson from Corey is great. A new lesson from Corey about Gary is EPIC!

[@detrenullermnd9973]

Great stuff 💪- all we need now is the second corus of the solo🙏

[@josephd5715]

Thank you, subscribed!

[@staggs5034]

I love Gary’s Albert King influence on King Of The Blues. It’s got it all the phrasing, screaming bends, and his incredible vibrato

[@gngourlias]

This epi is a bargain for the money i have one in cherry finish... As always fantastic video man... cheers ❤

[@elbass0]

This is great content 👍

[@midi1529]

Groovey Corey, looking good 👍 great licks too

[@caiocrespo9809]

Awesome! Gary is one of the greatest and your teaching style too!

[@coreycongilio]

Hey thanks!

[@leechild4655]

2007 London Gary plays Red House and its worth a listen if you havent already

[@thelolguy007]

Couldn’t agree more. The guy had something no other guitarist had or has. I recently started playing some Gary tunes live (inc this one) I don’t have it off as much as I want but I’m working in it. Imo if you can play Gary stuff live close to he did then you should be happy

[@gav25x]

You're right 🎉

[@aardvarkusrex]

I've got the Epiphone '59 Reissue Standard Les Paul (left handed) and I'm absolutely in love with it. The quality of workmanship is top notch. Incidentally, I got it from Sweetwater and will sing the praises of their in-house luthiers who did some special setup for me.

[@coreycongilio]

Nice! I'll do a deeper dive soon!

[@stephenfeldman8104]

Many years ago I had a brief correspondence with Will Lee, bass guitar player in the David Letterman band and so much more. Will and Gary shared the stage with George Harrison at George's last live performance at the Royal Albert Hall in 1992. Will commented to me that Gary was the only guitar player he'd ever met that made him wish he was a guitarist (and Will's played alongside just about every great guitarist on the planet).

[@BradRocker]

Thank you Corey for showcasing this monster guitarist.

[@coreycongilio]

You bet!

[@kdavis63]

Gary, is killer...I knew I was on the right track, when I saw the Beano album cover on his record. I was attempting to learn the same songs he was...

[@ronkresch9228]

Absolute killer stuff...Corey...the best!

[@GnLguy]

Great video and lesson CC - as always! Gary has been a favorite for a long time. When you have a minute check out Kim Simmonds of Savoy Brown. Kim and his brother founded Savoy Brown in 1965 and Kim produced great blues & blues rock - not as energetic as Gary Moore - but he produced great music right up until he passed in December 2022. Played with likes of Hubert Sumlin, Muddy Water, Champion Jack Dupree and more.....but Kim rarely gets mentioned

[@philipbeasley72]

Nice

[@Durnyful]

Good stuff 😊

[@lifeinlimbo2186]

I have an old demo cassette of Gary Moore I found in a music store.

[@pcn267]

That was Kool

[@catcancrunch7260]

My all time fav axeman! He was a force of nature...

[@amjrpain919]

R.I.P. Gary, You're still the Best...💯🙏💔

[@davidgrad7651]

I got that same epi. Sounds killer on a budget. Still in love with you by thin Lizzy is such a good track. Think that was Moore.

[@btbb3726]

There’s a YT video of him playing “Red House” live - crazy good.

[@martinbourke7753]

The best
