When Gary Moore passed the world of music lost the greatest guitarist to ever live R.I.P Gary moore

[@k0smos798]

I am interested what people think about Gary. His delivery is just spot on with the vocals and guitar tone. His delivery is astonishing. I think of his playing and singing as a perfect marriage. The control is epic and the emotion and combination of these things show us Artist of great magnitude. I know it is just music...but, I don't know many people that can give me chills like this. His guitaring is pure naked brilliance.

[@Stringfelowhawke]

Gary Moore is the best Blues player, Period!!!!!

[@Grummash]

Lots of guitarist can play lots of notes very quickly… But Gary knew how to do it to great musical effect, not simply showing off! The range of tones he achieved, and the emotion he conveyed… absolute genius, and a massive loss to the world.

[@janmazzone2090]

@@theragingbob3910 Rory was a legend! He was the reason I wanted to learn to play guitar when I was a kid and I was lucky to see him live numerous times in the 70s and 80s. I remember begging my dad to let me go to a Gary Moore gig - he wasn't keen but went along. It was so loud our ears were ringing for two days! Anyway, listen to "A million miles away" by Rory and have your mind swept of its feet!

[@jutta3378]

@@robertrohde4579 Great company indeed! I was born in Germany but Rory put Ireland on the map for me when I was a kid. Because of him I took up the guitar in my teens. I've lived in Dublin most of my adult life but Donegal is where my heart is. One of the most beautiful places I've ever visited and the area is just steeped in fantastic music. Fun fact: Rory was born at the Rock Hospital (that's its real name, no pun intended!) in Ballyshannon, Donegal!

[@dagmar.6954]

What a master guitarist. He could really make his instrument sing & wail. Love it. Also he had a great voice. Another one gone too soon but at least he left us a great legacy of music.

Its crazy that they didn't utilize his voice with Thin Lizzy. I dont know much about Gary though, maybe he hadnt really developed his singing voice at the time.

[@ghbill4r82]

@@RByrne His voice is great, but there’s no touching Phil’s vocals. Some of the smartest things he ever did was pairing up with Phil, on vocals and bass.

And you’re right about developing his voice. His best vocals were from his blues playing days later in his career.

Gary Moore the master of guitar string bending blues... and if you like bending string and sustained notes, listen also to his songs Parisienne Walkways, and as well The Loner that is his tribute to his former band member in Thin Lizzy, Phil Lynnot.

This song makes me cry. His voice as emotional as the guitar. First time watching you. I like you. You’re low key so if you give a half smile I know you’re really digging it. Haha

[@theray1319]

Ahhhh yes. I remember listening to this on the radio.

[@ghbill4r82]

I remember them playing this on the radio right after announcing that Stevie Ray Vaughn died.

[@derekvance9944]

I would suggest that you look for Gary performing Red House, he kills it for 9 minutes. I would also look for him playing with B. B. King on The Thrill Is Gone. For me that's the best call and response I've ever seen and what's more you are watching two superb guitarists who are thoroughly enjoying playing together. It's such a nice thing to see B.B. applauding Gary while they are performing, just a wonderful performance, I would have loved to have been in the audience!

[@stevenewcomer8837]

Gary was in Thin Lizzy and several other Rock bands and put out a bunch of solo albums. The “Still Got the Blues” album was his first straight Blues album. His album “Corridors Of Power” is great! He also played guitar on Greg Lake’s (Emerson, Lake, and Palmer) solo albums.

[@stingraydelgadillo60]

Gary Moore was the absolute best there was. Please check out Empty Rooms live Stockholm 87 and The Messiah will come again from Montreux 90 or 91. You'll be amazed.

[@royferguson2297]

Gary the Belfast Boy the greatest.

[@sean---the-other-one]

Spot on, from my point of view. This live version is extremely similar to the studio original, which I would recommend that you listen to. You could skip to the second guitar solo, as that’s where the subtle difference kicks in. The studio environment, with a) the ability to try multiple takes (or even stitch takes together), and b) the restraint of a producer telling him to just lay off the shredding, turned out a much more intense and soulful result. The studio version of this song was one of two songs I ever heard in my life that compelled me to stop my car and just listen the first time I heard it on the radio. It was the outro guitar solo that got me in this song (along with its buildup). The other song was Tip Of My Tongue by Diesel, a very different song to Still Got The Blues, but a very compelling and unusual song and sound.

[@Isleofskye]

I understand why you said "skip" on the basis you gave already heard the studio version but it should be a criminal offence to skip any part of Gary's work:)

[@sean---the-other-one]

@@Isleofskye I only suggested it here as Gary and the whole band do an incredible job of replicating the studio version here live. I had to listen hard i. The first couple of bars to tell if they had just dubbed a live video with the studio recording. But in this instance it is definitely the subtle restraint of the studio version in the outro that retains all of the incredible skill and soul of his performance and jettisons the unnecessary finger-exercise shredding.

[@Isleofskye]

Thanks Sean although there is something to be said for a little finger exercise, occasionally...

Mach ich sonst nie, aber hier gibt es eine Ausnahme: Gary Moore - Still Got The Blues (Lyrics): Used to be so easy to give my heart away But I found out the hard way There's a price you have to pay I found out that love was no friend of mine I should have known time after time So long, it was so long ago But I've still got the blues for you Used to be so easy to fall in love again But I found out the hard way It's a road that leads to pain I found that love was more than just a game You're playin' to win, but you lose just the same So long, it was so long ago But I've still got the blues for you So many years since I've seen your face Here in my heart, there's an empty space Where you used to be So long, it was so long ago But I've still got the blues for you Though the days come and go There is one thing I know I've still got the blues for you

Being a guitarist yourself..........I'm sure you have checked out Joe Bonamassa and Mark Knofler of dire straits. Joe's duo with Beth Hart is great. Mark solo in Sultans of Swing is super.

Of course I know Sultans of Swing. Don't know joe's music too well, but I reacted to a few of his already. 2 with beth hart and one with jimmy barnes. Were couple of my very early videos, so probably not the best quality and I had to take one down again. But I loved bis play!!

🔥💯Should i take my music to the next level 🌎 ?

[@genov9374]

Gary can really make that guitar sing the blues. The guitar used to belong to Peter Green-a founding member of Fleetwood Mac. The top pickup was installed backwards by the Gibson factory (not all that uncommon) and results in a unique sound of a Fender-like brightness combined with the Gibson dirtiness. Gibson offered to fix it for Peter, but he refused. Peter sold the guitar to Gary Moore, whom he gave guitar lessons to, for the price he paid, I think $695. When Gary died (2011) the guitar went into various collections until it is reported that Joe Bonamassa bought it and still uses it today.

[@radmehrhasani299]

@@radmehrhasani299 Nice-it's in good hands still. Thanks for the info.

Moore did own the guitar you speak of, but the guitar he used in this video is not that guitar. Look closely at the pickups; they are uncovered. There are other differences as well. Moore often used guitars with higher output pickups when performing in live situations.

The ultimate in feel, not even Gilmour comes close, The messiah will come live by Gary. Other guitarists must just watch this and weep, Tina S aside, say no more.

[@AnthonyKellett]

Tina's version of Moore's The Loner gets me every time. Again, not lots of shredding, but she really came of age, in terms of feel, with that one. That set her up for Altitudes and For the Love of God, in my opinion.
