One of the finest guitar players ever and seriously underrated as a singer.

[@IkmelAAA]

Underrated by who lol

[@steveo44]

@@IkmelAAA in my opinion he his guitar playing was so good it undervalued how great a singer he was. Most people just saw him as a guitarist. Very rare a guitar player of that caliber can sing so well

[@lillybloom1590]

Stupid Rollin' Stone didn't even put him in their top 100. Yet put Jimi Hendrix at the top, a man who had only a few decent tunes and, in the main, played a guitar upside down and that's it. Very sad!

[@martin6181]

This man was a Guitar God, and you can really feel the pain in this song both through the verses but especially through the guitar. Amazing artist that left us way too soon.

[@Defmusicman1]

This is one of those songs that you wish would never end. That wailing guitar is otherworldly. If this doesn’t move you to tears, you aren’t human.

[@andreashorst1390]

Gary Moore, the guitar god. I am grateful to be able to experience him live in Germany

[@nonodaclown9033]

An absolute legend and he played with his soul

[@simonringqvist7540]

The lord of the strings. Rip Gary

[@joebalusikiii5811]

Thank you Beth. I've been a fan of his since his Thin Lizzy days. It's criminal how unappreciated he is in general and in America in particular. If more reactors start featuring him maybe that will change. You opened my ears to how much his singing is influenced by his bends and vibrato with which he plays guitar!

[@lillybloom1590]

Finally someone making a response video that understands voice and music. Great response!

[@darkiee69]

If you want more Gary Moore I suggest "Parisienne Walkways" live in Montreux from 2010. His guitar playing in that one make you forget to breathe at times.

[@TheTruth-pl3mk]

Better version at One Night in Dublin, 2006. He doesn't overplay as much, which is very important. Gary was a phenomenal guitarist but sometimes could be guilty of overdoing it. The Montreux performance is an example of that.

[@pianoekket]

Don't forget The Prophet by him, just amazing

[@GMLucGM]

@@TheTruth-pl3mk he’s often accused by overplaying by those who can’t

[@Tomekkplk]

His best version is actually the 92' concert at the Royal Albert Hall

[@christinestromberg4057]

also The Messiah Will Come Again. Mind blowing.

[@TheTruth-pl3mk]

Gary was incredible. He could play anything convincingly. My hero, lifelong. RIP

[@georgebliss5134]

I've been playing guitar for over forty years, and Gary is one of my guitar heros. You hit the nail on the head when you mentioned his precise bends

[@zoyazam8776]

His specialty was making the guitar sob and sob. one of the greatest ever. RIP Gary Moore

[@mrsanity]

What a legend. I'm friends with his brother, who is almost as good a guitarist in his own right, but prefers a quiet life :)

[@RicFrugoli]

Really? I met a cousin of they, who lives in Brazil, Geoff Moore.

[@Metzwerg74]

he could shatter your soul by playing his guitar.... sad day, when he left the world......

[@TheeRillyBadGamer]

As I sit here with my jaw on the floor as he absolutely shreds that final solo, I ask myself: how did I make it this far in life without ever hearing about this guy???

[@smallbluething13]

Have a listen to this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4icmXZ_nr9gnac

[@avlisk]

I "discovered" him in 2020 when I "discovered" Thin Lizzy at the 2005 concert for Phil. I was 69 years old! I ask myself that question too.

[@martynadams2011]

Can’t say I agree with you Beth. His singing always seems at full stretch and his guitar playing is often an example of “gilding the lily” - have said both of those I love this song and other performances of it.

[@billsager5634]

Looks like Brian Downey on the drums. Brian was the drummer for Thin Lizzy until the breakup of the band. Brian continued to work with Phil Lynott on solo projects, and Gary Moore on numerous projects.

[@stevegreen5552]

I'm pleased that Gary's voice was highlighted here. I first noticed him when this song came out, and it soon became apparent to me that his vocals were as soulful as the emotional virtuosity of his guitar playing. The few years including and following this song were amazing - the album After Hours has some wonderful highs - and I have an unofficial live CD (Blues from a Gun) from this period. His vocals at that time, to me, surpassed the clip you chose but your choice still presents the raw emotion that keeps him alive in our hearts. Thank you.

[@oxigenarian9763]

Gary Moore was one of the greatest guitar players of all time. He had an unbelievable command of the strings.... He met with a tragic end and was taken from us too, too soon. I love to watch how he can run through complicated riffs super fast and never look at the frets...

[@kevinburk7861]

You are not just hearing the music, you are feeling the pain.

[@ogri214]

Gary's version of Peter Green's blues song Need your love so bad is in my view one of his best performances.

[@robertphelps1574]

Great song the original version by Little Willie John is worth a listen

[@purgedome2386]

Beautiful song.. masterclass guitarist.. great singer. Love 'Parisienne Walkways'.. He died to early at 58. RIP

[@thewalnutgrower]

Love your reactions!!! Gary's singing and guitar playing are so full of emotions.

[@realbadgolfer711]

Samantha Fish is one blues vocalist/guitarist I would love to get your take on. I think she has that perfect pairing of vocal style and guitar tone to match. I really enjoy how you point out little details in songs and artists I have been listening to for years that I never picked up on. Happy Holidays!

[@tonycandela-eo3fb]

Considering this was a live performance when he was much older . This was recorded in 1990 with “ A Little Help From My Friends” George Harrison .

[@edisonsullivaniv8687]

Thank you for this Beth. Gary Moore is and always will be one of my favorite musical artists. So happy to see your reaction to this man who turned his torment into something ethereal for the rest of us. So sad that it got the better of him. 😢

[@kingofheavymetal]

I cannot not listen to this song without crying, never fails.

[@christianpomrenski3578]

What an incredible song. I love this man. He connects with me to the deepest part of my soul. I usually get teary-eyed when hearing this song. This time, watching your eyes tear-up openned the floodgates to my soul. Thank you Beth for your thoughts on this song. Cheers from Montreal Canada 🇨🇦 💜

[@TheZepp44]

I saw him two months before he died, he made the guitar cry, and when you hear it, just gets you there, so much emotion.

[@richmcelmeel5430]

I cannot believe I missed this. Gary was a favorite since the early 80s for me. I had all his stuff....being Irish and knowing how he brought the struggles of his Northern Ireland heritage to the forefront. This is late in his life....check out Empty Rooms...live version...different side of the coin..... A true favorite

[@Crytica.]

By the first 2 pulls on the guitar I can hear it's Gary. One of the most iconic sounding guitarist ever.

[@HEAVYMETALmovie1981]

He wasn't just a singer. But he was a BEAST of a guitarist. A friend of mine introduce me to Gary Moore in his wild frontier album concert on VHS. Of course, this was the early 2000s and I was in my mid teens at the time. And I must say, Gary Moore is one of them greatest guitar players I have ever seen.

[@stevenwinn3636]

Never seen this performance before - I agree with you, the last 10 seconds is so moving when he slows it right down ! RIP Gary, legend.

[@andresilva8444]

One of my heroes and I miss him dearly. Thank you for showing so much passion.

[@lindsaymac01]

One of the greatest gutiarists ever. All you need to say, really. I have had the songs opening as a ringtone on my phone for years, so I hear it several times a day and still love it.

[@jacekjackson6903]

The Legend, The gitar master, The Real Rock Star, Great human ♥️ RIP 🙏

[@markmilner842]

Gary’s been one of my favourite singer-guitarists since the 80s. Fantastic player, and underrated singer. Thanks for giving him his due!

[@derekvance9944]

I've seen a video of Gary performing the same song a number of years ago, I think it was filmed in a much larger venue. It has been said by some people that Gary's voice wasn't the best but when you can make a guitar sing like that then you don't have to have the greatest voice in the world. Gary was an exceptional guitarist and for me, this was his greatest song. Whenever I hear it I just imagine that somewhere in the guitar's being, those notes were waiting to be discovered and Gary was the one who was able to find them and bring them forth. I think this is one of those songs where whoever tries to cover it, the song will sound fine or even great, but they will never be able to tap into the same passion that Gary was able to bring out of his guitar.

[@martinlepper4522]

Thank you. Someone that likes Gary Moore as much as I do. Absolutely my favorite.

[@superdaz75]

Always brings a tear to my eyes listening to this legend. Simply amazing

[@Drinckx2]

Really nice reaction to a great guitarist. Throughout his career (that I followed for decades) he really improved his singing and, when he went in this blues direction, I think he really found his voice. The thing is, his playing is so good, it kind of overshadows his singing. Really good insights onto how musicians sing like they play.

[@adrianor.passarelli8127]

Gary is an often underrated guitarrist but this video remembered me how an underrated singer he also is!

[@matthewleonardball2925]

Legend his phasing and spacing on that axe is stellar, R.I.P Gary sorely missed ❤️.

[@glynnporrino5634]

The thing I've always loved about the late great Gary Moore is he hits you right in the feels!!!!

[@john-ic7vg]

I always love when he flips from rhythm pickups to treble. Changes the whole dynamic of the solo

[@jscam4387]

Hey Beth - excellent reaction/analysis! I loved the way that you could feel the emotions that Gary brings out in this song. I was so lucky to be at this concert in Basel in Nov 2008 and he was able to emtionally grab the whole audience throughout the entire concert with his brilliance 💕

[@stuartharris4062]

Thanks for reacting to this piece, he soars vocally and instrumentally. The dynamics are sublime

[@chrishowe2935]

He was amazing! He could shred and also play so delicately, and new exactly when to do each of them. And man could he sing! Gone too soon.

[@MetalPersonJ]

This was incredibly moving to watch. Thank you Beth.

[@danjmcs]

Such a beautiful song and performance, loved the reaction Beth. Gary was definitely one of those special musicians who had the guitar playing and vocals that just paired perfectly together.

[@andythrush3341]

One my favorite songs 🎵 🎶 . Glad you branched out to such a blues master. Thanks Beth.

[@carlrobson5745]

GOAT on the guitar

[@allenhuling598]

For me, one of the all time greats for sure....both with the guitar and vocally!! Cheers Beth!

[@gregvergara7596]

One of the great guitar virtuosos of all time. The look of appreciation on your face, for the talent you showcase in your reactions is so enjoyable. Thank you for the obvious care you put into the content you post. I also appreciate your expert analysis of the vocal abilities, and your detailed explanation of how it is achieved.

[@chrisvarga-findlater2280]

You make a fascinating observation about how instrumentalists approach singing. I had never noticed it before but now I think about it you're absolutely correct. Thanks for the reaction! More Gary Moore please!

[@StewRoberts]

Sorry if I’m late to the party, but you should react to one of his early versions in 1990 or so when his voice was in better condition! So soulful! Nearly as incredibly spectacular as his incredible guitar work!

[@savagekitten]

Awesome that you've featured Gary, and let's hope that this introduces him to a whole new audience outside of his existing fans. I'm just into double-figures for times seeing him live (so sad that I won't have the chance to do that again), and I've always felt he was a raw and unrefined vocalist, but he makes it work and delivers, and sometimes he really surprises you !

[@IrishGuitarGaz]

I've heard many singers say their voice is their instrument; with Gary Moore, his instrument was his voice. There's a lot of guitar players I admire but he is always near the top of the list, very few have been able to replicate the soul and passion he seems to extract from 6 guitar strings. And let's not even get into his ability to sustain a note without any effects help for a seemingly impossible length of time.

[@joelmoreno4223]

Another informative and entertaining 'reaction' from Beth (Roars). And the performance: absolutely superlative, absolutely!...amazing!

[@jhernandez1962]

Hands down this is the very best reaction you have done may Gary rock on forever

[@dudeymcduderson]

Gary is singing this song quite a bit differently to how he used to sing it when he had younger vocal chords, but he's still nailing it. It's worth watching an earlier video to compare this to.

[@leonelbardo]

Richie Kotzen is another phenomenal guitar payer/singer, I would love to see you reacting to him one day Beth! Thanks for your amazing content here on youtube! =)

[@stevecrosby3379]

Ah the player and the song that got me into playing guitar. His guitar tone is just absolutely unbelievable! Thanks for the analysis on this song! 😀

Love Gary Moore as was fortunate to see him twice. Such an awesome and amazing guitarist. He played with his heart and soul.

[@hellstorm3233]

Nobody moves me more than Gary Moore. Such an amazing talent and ferocious guitar player.

[@hellstorm3233]

One more thing his playing leaves an imprint on your soul

[@makkie211175]

Sometimes its sad to see that todays youngsters only regonize MJ as a legend, while we have so much legendary music in our treasure chest. Just talk to your parents and ask their favorites and you find a whole world of awesome legendary music.

[@georgebamforth7372]

Gary Moore, the best guitarist ever.

[@edmiley729]

Beth...thankyou so much for doing this reax video. The first concert I went to in '77 was Queen with opening act Thin Lizzy. As luck would have it Gary was in that touring version of Thin Lizzy. My guitar playing started roughly a month before that show, and I had no idea who Thin lIzzy was or Gary Moore for that matter, however what he did that night so overwhelmed me that my recollection of Queen as spectacular as they were is completely over shadowed by Gary's performance. He probably respresents 75% of my playing influence. Now, to Still Got The Blues...The song is autobiographical. Don't recall all of the facts but this song is about a personal relationship from his past when the song was written around 1990. Gary, without effort combines tender, delicate moments that sail right into and out of pure rage. I've always thought of his playing and singing as a approaching ocean storm, meaning that there are little tells early on of whats to come and then it desends upon you, throws you around and then easily leaves. This is excatly what he did here vocally and obviously with the guitar. He was light years better than almost all of his peers but just did not have the recognition and is criminally underrated. In his youth he grew up in Belfast, saw The Troubles and celtic rage is a driving force in so much of his work and it fhe connection of that to his fingers & soul is continuous..he channels every bit of that emotion everytime.

[@tomfabozzi6309]

Love your reactions, Beth. Gary was a wonderful guitarist, but was also a really underrated singer. You should check out the version of this song from Montreaux Jazz Festival in 1990 (it's also on KZbin). He was younger, and his voice was in Pristine condition. He could really hit those higher notes without any difficulty. This is a bit later

[@twentyfiveyears5010]

100% agree, it was a better vocal performance than this show.

[@foolsjourney8118]

Agree. That was the best version committed to film for sure, both vocally and guitar. I do wonder if we get to hear his actual pain in this one though.

[@twentyfiveyears5010]

@@foolsjourney8118 First time I heard this song (studio version) on the radio, the long guitar solo evoked every emotion I had felt 20 years before when the woman I was in love with left me. It had everything, the surprise, the sadness, the begging, the eventual despair. I was long over her but this solo brought it all back.

[@foolsjourney8118]

@@twentyfiveyears5010 I don't think anyone who's ever been through that kind of break up could possibly be unmoved by the clear anguish on Gary Moore's face in the '90 Montreux version. I still feel it now, decades after mine, when I watch it.

[@andersgranstrom7128]

...and you believe in what he is singing/feeling! Technique aside... You get honesty, not necessary needing to be the best around every note - he is expressing a feeling. God I miss him, RIP Master! Love your reaction and reflections Beth! Thanks!

[@BendsMusic]

Beth, I onced played this as a simple guy coming on stage, on night at the old marquee club with Gary Moore (circa 1991) I played backing guitar, (even though I wasn't introduced celebrity) quite right too. (I have the photos) Gary was a lovely man (sadly missed)

[@Silvervulff69]

He had more soul than a Clarks superstore, and it bled out through his Guitar... Saw him twice 😊🤟🤟

[@foolsjourney8118]

Gary Moore's biggest curse was that he was such a phenomenal guitarist that people forget how fantastic a singer he was too. This isn't the best live version of the song on KZbin though. I'm not suggesting you should review it twice, but you should definitely check out Montreaux 1990 for your own enjoyment. If he had the pretty looks of Jon Bon Jovi he would have been the biggest rock star of the 80s.

[@waynem4791]

He'd lost his pride and joy by this time, which I'm sure contributed to what was to come. You're the best Gary! We miss you. God bless.

[@mooglesmodelrailways]

Beth, great choice, great analysis. Gary Moore wrote some fantastic songs, even some with Phil Lynott from his Thin Lizzy days but this is one of his best and, IMHO, one of the most moving, beautiful songs ever written.

[@waynehauser3611]

If anyone can connect as one with their instrument and release and sound from it with their soul, it's Gary Moore . A pure master , and with Blues music and the story telling, its a match made in heaven, where Gary Moore is today . What a performer/musician.

[@johnhmaloney]

Great reaction and analysis. The song is an absolute classic, is is the riff and solo. I've heard this song quite a few times, but I've only just noticed that the riff and most of the solo bear quite a resemblance to the chorus of Lionel Ritchie's Hello. Both are beautiful songs, so I'm not complaining. I just never expected to catch a similarity.

[@Petestanton]

Also notice how for the climax of the guitar solo he switched from the neck to the bridge pickup, which gives a more trebly ,biting sound - just as a singer might move the placement forward.
