Gary Moore R.I.P.

R.I.P Gary.

I am so sad. Maybe the most under-appreciated guitarist from the 70's and 80's.

RIP Gary Moore.

If anyone can post a track with a better guitar solo than this I'd love to hear it.

Just heard this on the news, a bit of a shock to say the least. RIP Gary

Oh dang, this is a bummer. One of the very first songs I ever learned to play on bass was "Still Got the Blues For You". On my first ever gig, it was one of the songs on our set list.

Sad day. Always loved Gary on "Texas Strut" - what an artist.

"Mr Moore was originally drafted into Thin Lizzy by its singer Phil Lynott." (my emphasis).

Ugh. What terrible usage of the language. I know it's trendy to refer to bands, companies and other organisations as singular rather than plural, but it just sounds uncouth and even insensitive in this context. No doubt the copy was written by some young hack who is better at following the style book than thinking about the subtle nuances of the language.

Heaven preserve us from journalists who think they know how to write.

Mr Moore. MISTER MOORE. Who on Earth wrote this ****?

Ya, just read this, what a shame...

 

[Duplo42]

Sad. RIP. I listened to Still got the blues album a million times. What a shame.

 

[M.R. Ogle]

Got the "Live Blues" video about worn out. Man, he had such a straightforward, no-BS way of wrangling notes out of that Les Paul... what a talent!

 

[Chopper]

sad news

 

[NOLA Bass]

Really really bummed to hear this news today.

My favorite since first hearing, "Still Got The Bles For You". I have recommended Blues Alive to everyone who will listen. Why does the almighty need so many great guitarists?
"Though the days come and go..There's one thing I know...That I STILL GOT THE BLUES FOR YOU". Rest easy... love, Joel E. AKA...Zon6c-f.

 

[MIJ-VI]

This IMHO was his best band.

Son of a B!!! No dope there!

R.I.P. Mr. Moore.

You were clearly one of those who dignified the concept of being creative.

 

[JimmyM]

That really sucks. one of my favorite bootlegs ever was greg lake live playing with gary moore. greg even performed gary's song "nuclear attack." just a superb musician all the way around. he will be missed.

Sheesh.. I had been listening to G-Force and Corridors of Power almost non-stop over the past couple of weeks... sad... one of my favorite artists. One of the best rock guitarists ever.
