Rolling Stone magazine recently published their joke of a list of the top 250 guitarists of all time. Gary Moore, along with so many others, was conspicuous by his absence. Few if any, ever reached this level of performance and feel of man and guitar. RIP Gary, you sir were and are a LEGEND. Top reaction from you both and a joy to see you feeling as well as hearing this performance.

I have been a musician (bass) for over 60 years and I've heard many of the greats live - Jimi Hendrix, BB King, Jeff Beck, Ted Nugent, and many more and nobody comes close to Gary Moore. This, IMHO, is the greatest guitar performance ever recorded and he is the greatest guitar player that ever lived. This performance is absolute perfection!!!

This is the best guitar instrumental performance ever. Even watching it on KZbin, you feel the notes he is playing and normally, only a vocalist can get that reaction. Eddie Van Halen apparently said Gary was the only guitarist who frightened him! I saw him twice and he was unreal. Guitarist can shred and be technical but what Gary did was played with his actual DNA which is so, so unique. So sad that he is gone.

I am loving your reactions! You understand that there’s never a good moment to pause or stop this music, you just have to try to work with it. His music is so beautiful and you can just see how he feels it. Music goes so far beyond lyrics, understanding the words or no words; it’s beyond words. His hands do the singing and emotions that we run through. Y’all are right that there will never be a “best guitarist”. It just touches you in the places that you are in life, and depending on what mood you’re in, what mood it puts you in, it’s just subjective and just trying to appreciating what they’re doing and how it makes you feel is the most important thing. They hear a main line, and then they just feel and express themselves through their hands. It is a very intimate, touching, and openness that they bless us with. I loved your reaction, and you have a new subscriber. Thank you.

Do yourself a favour and listen to Roy’s original. You won’t be disappointed. Here are the words spoken at the beginning of “The Messiah Will Come Again”. Just a smile, just a glance The Prince of Darkness He just walked past There's been a lot of people And they've had a lot to say But this time, I'm gonna tell it my way There was a town, There was a strange little town, they called "The World" It was a lonely, lonely little town 'Til one day a stranger appeared And their hearts rejoiced And the sad little town was happy again But there was some that doubted They disbelieved so they mocked him And that stranger, he went away Now the sad little town that was sad yesterday It's a lot sadder today I walked in a lot of places I never should have been But I know that the Messiah, he will come again

The guitar he is playing is a 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard, affectionately called 'Greeny' because it was first owned by Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac. Kirk Hammet of Metallica now owns it.
