FIRST TIME HEARING Gary Moore - Still Got The Blues

[@tonyclark3262]

In my opinion, Gary was at the very top of the list of the greatest guitar players ever!

[@joshgrant824]

Definitely in my top ten.

[@johndeeregreen4592]

Think about it like this: on the outro, he knew he screwed up on the final descending run, corrected it by playing notes that would fit, and didn't even miss a beat. I have covered this song so many times, I know that final run without even thinking about it, and even I had to go, "Wait a second, that's not how it's normally played!" Yet, he pulled it off without a problem. All guitarists make mistakes; great ones like Gary keep you from ever noticing.

[@Grummash]

Best use of a Les Paul you will ever encounter

[@colingoode3702]

Pretty good singer as well.

[@moorewilliam4193]

Mate don't foget Gary was artist also guitar master One and only Gary Moore you know

[@edallen3662]

There's no musician that has ever walked the Earth that I would rather listen to than Gary

[@schmiddyfi]

Gary is one of those guitarists where "if you know, YOU KNOW!". And now you know! You won't be disappointed with Gary.

[@steatipygous]

This is my favourite Gary Moore song. I could listen to it forever. .

[@stevenward9992]

The Les Paul, Gary Moore regularly played has its own history. Gibson made reissue replicas that sell for $50,000… The guitar is known as Greeny… named for its original owner Peter Green. It has changed hands many times through various musicians and collectors. It has sold for up to… $2,000,000 … that’s TWO-MILLION-DOLLARS. It is said by the musicians that have played it that no other guitar plays and sounds exactly like Greeny. I have read that there was a mistake made at the factory in the wiring of the pickups and that is part of its unique tone. Kirk Hammett of Metallica now owns Greeny. (Stradivarious in the hands of a master… but Moore could make any guitar sing.)

[@Damalatorian]

Nobody stops the moment when Gary Moore lets his guitar sing it's line of the lyrics...

[@AppleCranberry-kw3ir]

Thank You!!! I cannot stop watching this song and video!!!

[@AppleCranberry-kw3ir]

R.I.P. Gary Moore!!! THANKS

[@georgereid2369]

Nice to see someone react like that to the greatness that was Gary.

[@stuartbloch28]

I swear I saw tears running down the frets! Rock in Peace Gary Moore

[@mdu2112]

I guess we were looking at the same guitar.

[@grethe1956]

Gary told a story of his recording sessions. He would do his bit in one take and the other musicians would tell him to go away and write another song while they recorded their bit. So that’s what he did. I miss him so much.

[@MrBedZeppelin]

You have found the "Gary Moore" section, of this dream, ALL RIGHT, Salvo!!

[@Quincysof]

That was flippin out of this world awesome. I have never heard of him before. I loved it❤❤❤

[@29memyselfandi]

Hope you listened to plenty more Gary Moore. 🙂 There really was /is no one like him.

[@pluckinmageetar]

Gary Moore doesnt have a history, he left a legacy. Definitely tap into his work with Thin Lizzy and after his "conversion" to contemporary blues but might I suggest his solo rock effort, "Corridors of Power" album next as, IMHO it's his stand out Rock album and solo performance of his virtuoso days. Then maybe tap into his post Blues Rock conversion stuff. There is a special magic in EVERY project Gary Moore was in on, whether it was his rowdy, pre Lizzy, punk infused, euro blues rock of the early 70s or his more mellow, contemporary blues rock later on. He will be greatly missed. A GOAT for sure.

[@penrod6540]

He was also in Skid Row another band that needs a look at

[@pluckinmageetar]

@@penrod6540 AKA his, " his rowdy, pre Lizzy, punk infused, euro blues rock of the early 70s" period.😁

[@jeanvallette6074]

He Made the guitar cries, Is one of the best. Great reaction SalvoG thanks

[@davelimbo]

You can also heat Gary Moore with Thin Lizzy “The Boys Are Back In Town”. I saw them in 1979, before I knew how great he was, but as a band they were awesome!

[@TheLoner73]

Gary was unique, everyone has their reason why his guy is the GOAT, I accept that. But for me it’s the pure emotion on playing that guitar, you usually say that the guitar is the extension of the guitarist, but with Gary it’s the opposite, HE was the extension of the guitar, and you see that in almost every note he plays!! “The Messiah will come again” from this same concert is another must listen, and you will understand why when you hear it, but also “Parisienne Walkways” the the same festival, but 20 years later, so 2010, is another one. Although there are many great versions of this song live, this one for me is the best, and unfortunately also one of his last performances. Another unforgettable live performance is “Separate Ways” from the Town & Country Club in London 1992, a small club, but an amazing concert just before he went on tour that year. And these are just 3 of his best Blues performances, I won’t start with his countless performances before that in his Rock era, just too many 😅

[@darrenjones5885]

Gary Moore’s playing was sublime. He’d go from perfect note to perfect note.

[@teraferguson6660]

One of my very favorite songs and Gary Moore was totally under rated as a guitar player….his guitar makes my eyes tear up every time I hear him play! RIP

[@bnparts90]

If you want to see how good he really is, check out Gary and BB King doing "The Thrill is Gone". It will blow you away!

[@Johnny67557]

Gary is my all time favorite guitarist. I got turned on to him about 1983, during his solo stuff. He was in & out of Thin Lizzy. Amazing stuff.

[@mwjsbleakwater564]

Best guitarist that ever walked the earth. Saw him many times live. Always gave 100 pst and then some.

[@francisdaunt]

Perfect Blues

[@martinking4181]

RIP, the master...just so much heart and feeling

[@brianmasinelli9694]

Those fingers are masterful. Great song and an even better performance!!!

[@patclark3024]

I loved this song since I first heard it way back when. I'm almost jealous because you got to hear it for the first time now. Yes, definitely do more of his music

[@anthonywatkins2783]

He was a wonderful musician, seen him live when he was with Thin Lizzy, the man was a phenomenal guitar player, listen to him playing Jimmy Hendrix 👌👌👌

[@arnoldcox9128]

That right there was called mega talent, shredding on those notes and belting out those chords vocally is unreal

[@robcourtney6154]

Gary the legend.

[@penshaw2]

One of those rare elite - a guitarist’s guitarist!

[@teraferguson6660]

Thank you for the reaction!

[@ardentynekent2099]

Brilliant. Thanks! We miss you, Gary

[@vicki1120]

Absolutely amazing blues guitar!

[@ledded1]

I saw Gary many times over the years from his Gary Moore band, Skid Row ( UK version) Colosseum II Thin Lizzy and later in his solo years. It was sad when he passed away.

[@jeffreycook2112]

I definitely want some Moore!!! He was also an off and on member of Thin Lizzy for years. Sadly, a lot of people have never heard of him. Maybe he will get some more exposure from your reaction videos. He definitely deserves more attention.

[@jacquesmoulin980]

In my opinion no one can touch Gary Moore. His guitar playing is so insane. RIP Gary we still love your music.

[@peteross1709]

Enjoy yr reactions Gary Moore true legend n wish had seen him in concert, just watched him live in London playing 'Seperate Ways' brilliant be good to see what you think.

[@Snakehead1964]

One of my favourite guitar players - I recommend "Parisienne Walkways", "Empty Rooms" or "The Loner" next, before you go to "The Messiah Will Come Again"

[@penrod6540]

The Messiah will come again is my favorite He wouldnt have much time to pause as its mostly 1 long solo :)

[@rondayvu9400]

Salvo..Garry was the quintessential performer who loved his guitar and guitar loved him back

[@MrBrettley]

Never get tired of this one

[@georgebamforth7372]

Seeing Gary live was one of the best high lights of my life.

[@merlin5420]

Gary Moore!! Nuff Sed!! 🎸🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@wingedwraith]

He is buried very close to where I live in Sussex, UK. I had to visit recently as I am huge fan. There were lots of messages and guitar picks on his gravestone. He battled with drink and drugs for years and they eventually took one of the best guitarists who ever lived.

[@stevehanham9266]

Gary was, in my humble opinion the best guitarist ever to walk this earth. He could play any style he wanted to from Blues, Jazz-Fusion, Hard Rock and even Neo-classical. The man was an absolute guitar master! Please react to The Messiah Will Come Again Live. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZyTaJ1tgch_p9k It is from the same concert and I believe that it was Gary's third encore of the evening. You will see the best guitar playing that you ever will. A true master class using all the skills of guitar playing. I promise that you will not be disappointed! Cheers and regards from England. 😊😎🎸🇬🇧🇺🇦

[@PeterRabbit70]

Cheers, friend, and all you said was true.

[@KawaTony1964]

Yeah - this song is awesome. I had heard it over the years - not sure where exactly, maybe in malls or on radio stations I didn't normally listen to - but it was within the last 10 years that I saw this video and said to myself "WTF - it took me this long to find Gary Moore?". Another awesome Irish guitarist I only discovered in the last 10 years is Rory Gallagher. You should listen to him, too.

[@penrod6540]

Another Irish guitar player I believe

[@alangray2976]

Two of my favourite guitarists, saw them both live a few times, both Irish indeed, and both sadly no longer.

[@oscarrobertofortun3700]

You remind myself when listening to that masterpiece in those early 90's . Greetings from southamerica....

[@bellamina1957]

RIP Gary Moore! simply perfection and You Feel it. Thank you SalvoG Subed

[@janmazzone2090]

Loved your reaction.!! Gary is rocking it in Heaven. Love and miss you !

[@jimharris8597]

Just wait until you hear more of his amazing tunes. Wait until you hear Parisienne Walkways or The Messiah Will Come Again.... OMG the best ever.

[@johngoodchild6949]

As an American you have finally discovered one of the if not the greatest blues rock guitarist of all time. He could play anything from supporting BB King thru Hard rock, Check out The Messiah Will come again cover, Parisian Walkways, Red House cover at Fender Strat 50th Anniversary, Texas Strutt Live, Performances with Thin Lizzy, Albert King, BB King George Harrison I can go on and on. There are too many to mention. No one gets the emotion out of a guitar like Gary did.

[@oliver6749]

My favorite guitar player! Empty rooms live in stockholm is nice. Best channel out here

[@bostonvair]

This song was a radio hit during one of my life's biggest heartbreaks. I still choke up whenever I hear it.

[@kevinsattler6603]

You should check out Alvin Lee playing The Bluest Blues. He was the lead guitarist for the '70s band that 10 years after

[@gav25x]

I love how easy he made playing up the high end of a les paul look 😍

[@Grummash]

The finest use of a Les Paul there has ever been!

[@lisaldeene]

Best live performance of this song I've seen. I had chills too.

[@JoeyOskys]

I was totally inspired by Gary growing up as a guitarist he was by far naturally gifted guitar amazing

[@chewie2648]

Oh yes. RIP Gary. Please check Out "the Messiah will come again"

[@thegreypigeon]

So blessed to have seen him live superb passion in his playing.

[@brendapulcheon14]

Such a great song I could listen to it over and over love watching your channel thank you

[@royrocker9004]

RIP to one of the greatest guitarist to ever play.

[@jabbypants788]

As said you seriously need to watch the messiah will come again live, from this same concert. Its guitar playing of the highest level. Mind blowing.

[@josevi5835]

Best guitar player I have ever listened to. Incredibly emotional and badass technique. Moreover, his voice was stunning and was a fantastic composer. Pity he left us too soon that tragic night in Estepona (Spain). Next generations will value more his job as did Montreux Jazz Festival inviting him to their concerts.

[@9RJA]

Parisienne Walkways and The Messiah Will Come Again would be great follow-ups to this tune.

[@penrod6540]

agreed

[@davidmolina3520]

Awesome song 👍

[@christinestromberg4057]

Pariseienne Walkways for another. :) Most guitar players want to try to emulate Gary Moore, But he was a phenomenon.

[@Adrian-px9bu]

Thank you for reacting to Gary Moore. If you'd like to hear more from him here are some great songs: Separate Ways Live - kzbin.info/www/bejne/gojZqpqsbphmfpI Empty Rooms Live - kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmTHkqN6ial9sM0

[@lookmanohands1966]

Gary was a gift. Messiah Will Come, Parisian Walkways, old Gary and younger; both. SRV and Gary had mutual respect btw. Gary was bummed when Stevie died, along with everyone who knew him. Gary was a killer man.

[@michaoginski6220]

Empty rooms 1987

[@davelimbo]

Awesome!

[@barano9729]

7:29 wow 🎸

[@murdoch691]

Gary and Dave guitarists who could make a guitar cry

[@stevenewcomer8837]

Ronnie Montrose while playing a concert with Edgar Winter had his beloved 1959 Gibson Les Paul guitar stolen. Ronnie tried for years to find his beloved vintage guitar. He spotted Gary playing it in a video and tried through the courts to get it back. Ronnie believed that Gary bought the guitar not knowing that it was stolen. I think they both died before getting the matter resolved.

[@Tijuanabill]

Jam.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

I’ve known of Gary Moore as a great guitarist from lists, but never investigated his work. Only playing that measures up to this in blues right now I think is Joe Bonamassa. Joe has the same feel, I think. This was spectacular, emotive playing! By rights, he should be even better known….like Clapton or Winter or SRV

[@penrod6540]

Joe to me is the greatest living guitaaar player and Gary is right up there with the best ever

[@joelhammond4162]

Joe is a huge fan of Gary and one of his many inspirations.

[@jeannettesimpson9778]

I saw him play in Sheffield, UK, with Greg Lake!

[@jamesvomsaal3814]

Do the live version of Separate Ways.

[@larsbot2]

The version with the long guitar intro is unbelievable. This live version of Still got the blues is great, but that recording is otherworldly. Literally like you can't believe what you're hearing kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4icmXZ_nr9gnac

[@LaurieRein]

That’s some smooth easy listening music -forgot about this.

[@billpet4602]

my hero from 80s along with Eddie there is a lot of staff here for reaction. Check early 80s with Paice on drums My opinion, the last and best performance for reaction Parsienne Walkways Live Montreux 2010. RIP

[@francisdaunt]

playing Greeny , the guitar Peter green owned for Black Magic Woman

[@johnnolan8732]

My fav guitarist ever. Check out his stuff with Thin Lizzy!!!

[@dewapd1169]

Check out his song All Messed Up live in Stokholm 1987(?) i think... Its the fastest solo I ever heard! Also his song Empty Rooms, another incredible solo that is always talked about.

[@baredas]

You should definately check out Coverdale & Page, pure awesomeness

[@bluesman3232]

Check out Parisienne Walkway, too!

[@BobMcCarthy-ws6wq]

Parisienne Walkways!!!!!

[@dbrinkm1]

Gary was an elite player and so underrated that it is a travesty ! He never got the accolades he disserved...but...we who knew him...know who he was !!!

[@jodij6280]

I have to be honest, not my favorite genre of music but that was incredible.

[@scottmeeks662]

check out Rory Gallagher

[@nick1080p]

Hi! Welcome to Gary's world. Now try the duet with BB King, the thrill is gone.

[@suzi57james]

Have you checked out the live version of Parisienne Walkways... It a must to hear that long sustain

[@tomcollens4621]

Classic song, classically done.

[@BenjaminRVictorinoJr-ez6wp]

Yyou.will also ❤❤❤Parisienne walkways @ the Royal Albert Hall.His Final Performance b

[@andyallan2909]

Now try Parisian Walkways with his old pal Phil Lynnot from Thin Lizzy - magic!

[@Mebucko]

You know you are watching a master guitar player when you see them changing the volume and tone knobs on a pickup they aren't even using. They can then simply bend a string up and hit a knob for a completely different sound while lowering the string. Why would he put in all this extra effort? Because it is easy for him to completely change the tone effortlessly. This reminds me of Ted Nugent on his byrdland gibson.

[@almerfudge]

You got to listen to Tommy Johansson doing Gary Moore cover Empty Rooms he is playing one of Gary Moore guitars

[@shahih_bukake]

Gary that guy who makes the guitar crying

[@edallen3662]

I see that I'm a little late but I would like to suggest some other Gary Moore songs from The Monsters of Rock Show wishing well and rectify and also from the Montreux Festival 2010 over the hills and far away these are all live versions of the songs the first two are definitely hard rockers the third is kind of a upbeat folk song that tells a very interesting story

[@mahleevogue329]

Hi new subscriber in the house!,Thanks for your Great reaction, My request is a Filipina Girl group "4th Power (Now 4th Impact)" that competed on the British reality TV 12 series The X Factor Cover the song "Bang Bang" by Jessie J, Ariana G. & Nicki M. and it's the Number one most Viewed on X Factor History.

[@daveloboda1769]

Genius is an overused word but he had it in spades.

[@julietate7806]

Chills, yes. Other blues artists that I would suggest are Otis Rush's "A Fool For You", Buddy Guy's "What Kind of Woman," and "Feels Like Rain," Robin Trower "Day of the Eagle," funky, soulful & timeless; Roy Buchanan's version of "Sweet Dreams" from the movie "The Departed." Stick with me and I will help you discover gems that'll blow your mind.

[@rafaelbeckert8738]

Can you do the react to this same song, but the 1997 version? The one live at Montreaux. By the way, nice work dude!!! Gary Moore was really, really good!
