My husband was CEO of Fender and put on the Strat Pack Gig at Wembley Arena in 2005. Gary was quite a shy guy and wouldn't ask his 'hero' Hank Marvin to move on the stage so he could rehearse. His version of Red House on the night was spectacular...you could feel the whole audience in his thrall....

I saw Gary Moore three times in the 80s and he was amazing every time. My number 1 memory is from the last time I saw him on his Run For Cover tour. It was at the Manchester Apollo. For the encore he said he had a sore throat and couldn't sing the next song, so he'd asked a friend to help him out. When Phil Lynott walked out onto the stage I was just gobsmacked, the whole crowd cheered so loudly. I have always loved Thin Lizzy so to have Gary Moore and Phil Lynott together was more than something special. They then played Out in the Fields and Parisienne Walkways together. I went home an extremely happy man.

A month or two later I went home to California and lo and behold, he was playing a fairly small sized venue compared to the one in Europe. I recall he had a segment mid-show where he just played acoustic guitar and that always stuck with me. Wish I still have the t-shirts I bought.

Definitely my favorite guitarist ever and I doubt if I see anyone who can beat him on top for me. I have never seen bends like his, i haven't seen instant and ultimate control and dominance over fret board like his, I have never heard a sound like his and i haven't seen a guitarist to put that amount of emotion and make guitar cry like him. There are guitarists like Hendrix, Satriani, Guilmoure, Vai, Zakk Wylde, Knopfler, Clapton, Van Halen, Tipton, Laiho, Cantrell, Adrian Smith, Dime, Petrucci etc, and then there's Gary Moore in his own league... I hope this explains his level in my eyes. He could play ANYTHING from melodic death metal to blues!

Awesome! Been waiting for something like this for over a decade. I've been listening to guitarists for 50 years, and playing for 35. Trust me, I've heard them all, and there are many truly wonderful players, in many genres. But only one...Gary Moore...has ever brought me to tears with his playing. He had it all...tone, taste, feel, phrasing, all the chops you really need (anything more is just churlish stunt stuff) great note choice, and above all else a fire and passion that NO other player has ever matched. He played EVERY note like it was his last, and “dug in‘ like a WW1 soldier on the Somme. You only had to look at his face, and the sweat he produced EVERY performance, to see how much playing meant to him, nad how he was determined to get it to mean the same to you. Never played a bad note, let alone a bad solo. We've lost many titans of rock, blues, guitar in general. We have a few more thankfully still with us (Beck, Clapton, Page etc etc). But I miss Gary everyday, and will miss him to the end of my days. I know it sounds like hyperbole...but he really was THAT special. You either heard and loved Gary, and considered him your favourite, or you've never heard him! Simple as!

I have a particular bond with him because we were both left handed people who played right handed guitars, and many times when I got discouraged, I would think, Gary Moore can do it, so it can be done.

Gary Moore's G-Force supported Whitesnake in the UK in summer 1980. I knew he was more than just good from his Thin Lizzy / Back on the Streets era just before, but his presence onstage was quite overwhelming. He and his guitar (Charvel at the time) almost became one. He and Michael Schenker were the next Blackmore and Page. Love Joe Bonamassa's "Bull in a china-shop" analogy - perfect. The review of the G-Force album in one music weekly concluded: "Moore's an aggressive performer. Aggression, indeed, seems to be a major part of his personality." That summed him up too. I can say that Gary Moore has made me cry more than any man, or even woman! And that's a strange compliment, but a valid one.

However, If you are not biased and see his live videos you immediately realize that he was absolutely phenomenal. Pity that he left us too soon that night in Estepona.

Andrew said he appeared to come out on stage somewhat intoxicated, so needless to say his playing was seriously impacted. So very sad, many of us have had issues with alcohol during stressful times. Gary no different. But he will be remembered as one of the greatest ever. Every interview I have seem (many) he was such a perfect gentleman and so humble. On top of his genius, I think that is why he will always be remembered and why we all loved him so much.
