Extremely sorry for ads in between, its not my vid. Algorithm puts add from another owner. I wish i had control over the ads 😔
I was just about to leave a profane comment. Thanks for the explanation.
Insane
@@trevorjacob1107 me too lmao
It's all good... this is bad ass!! Ty fore sharing.
No worries .. I never blame the channel.. great channel ✊🏼
I’m 70 years old and still can’t stop the tears when listen to this. I’m so glad I was able to see him live. RIP Gary
64 and sorry that I never did.
REST WITH THE BEST GARY.
It was sad how it all happened 😢🙏🆘🇬🇧
Mr Richard u lucky Bastian I'm 56 n just got into Gary. I've known about him but never got into his jams fuck I love his work with thin lizzy. Phyl lynn
I'm 71. I don't shed tears and I didn't see him, but if tears would bring him back, I would have him here tomorrow. And I would be front row at his 1st gig. there are guitar pickers and there are guitar players, what a player he was!
Yea I’m 96 I love him too
Me too Richard! I saw him on the After Hours Tour in Birmingham, UK and he’s was phenomenal!
This man's soul was connected to his guitar. One of the best guitarists ever!
He is feeling it wow
Sadly, there are many people who have never heard of him.
Not his best in any way. It's just a bunch of fast chord runs toward nothing. He is WAY better than this vid.
Oh I so agree with your words…only just heard him for the first time this evening 😢 and thrilled that I have 💜
@@drakeschroeder9483 opinions are like as******** everyone’s got one… can you post your solo for us all to see please?
First time ever heard of him was this evening, I'm blown away, on another level this
One of us one of us
Metallica guitarist loves this guy and claims to have that modded guitar.
@@waynefisher4327
Kirk?
Metallica has two guitarists, but if you word it as "Metallica guitarist", I assume you mean Kirk, not James.
@@waynefisher4327he does
Gary Moore is my strongest influence when i play lead. Whether i intended it or not. In the end, i hear him distantly in my playing. Almost like standing ahead of me clearing the way. Each and every time i get lost in the space, i feel his energy. I will never reach him but I'll chase his spectre in my dreams forever. I've been on the lead for 11 years. He's my main inspiration. Rest in peace. Rest well.
Hahahaha !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow . Hahahahahahahah!!!!!!!! U must really suck if that's your mentor. Hahahahajajajajajajajajaj
are you wicked?
Don't always listen to Gary Moore, but when I do, so do the neighbours.
That is a funny comment. Back in the 80's I put a sound system in my car that would wake everybody up. My amp had to be wired up with # 4 battery cable. Eventually, the police got me, but it was only a $ 40 ticket.
Did your neighbours throw a brick through your window so they could hear it even better?
lol rock on
His sound can take you to a different place in the past.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
His vibrato is just so perfect...if I lived another hundred years and practiced all day every day I might reach 10% of his natural skill...RIP Gary, you'll be missed by your fans.
I agree with your assessment but I won't stop trying to tap into that emotion! Unequaled
That ain’t natural skill shaking a note, that’s tens of thousands of hours of practice.
@@sholland42 Yes and no. I've been playing for many years and have a pretty decent vibrato but there's more to it than just mechanics.
@@sholland42 exactly, after practicing many many times it just becomes naturally good.
Yeah. And being able to do the fingers is only a half of the challenge. You have to be able to imagine the music and hear it in your head first, to be able to tell the fingers what to play.
Dear God!!!!!!!!!! They don’t make musicians like this anymore!!!!!! I miss the old days when musicians were f’n great 😌!!! We lived in an unbelievable time. Never to be forgotten ❤!!!!
He was fantastic,check out Dovydas
Great musicians the best never coming back up Ireland 🇮🇪

I should’ve been born in the 40’s
Wow! A great example of what happens when a man and a guitar become one. Shine on Gary.
Check out the dude face melting and cheesing so hard to this solo! 3:27
He gets the full sound out of Greenie . Kirk Hammett from Mettalica now plays that guitar on stage Kirk paid 2 million for it in 2014
You should see how Rory Gallagher plays this song, I mean his song, on a tele.
February 2022 and I'm still in love with the sound of this guitar. Is anyone out there with me in this feeling?
I just started listen to Gary Moore few days ago. He inspired many guitarists that I listen to.
You are 100% right! I´m still in love too
Yes I listen 🎶 to him daily!
Goosebumps listening to this!!!!!
@Jimmy O'Reilly All new gibson les pauls come from the factory PLEK'ed, which is a procedure that perfectly levels and polishes the frets, so you shouldn't need to worry about buzz.
If you're worried about fakes, look for a certificate of authenticity when you buy one.
The big obstacle for buying a gibson LP is the price; they're not cheap. I wouldn't worry much about fretbuzz or fakes if you have the money, just be careful and check with someone that knows gibson guitars if you're not sure.
My neighbors like Gary Moore so much they threw a brick through the window so that they could hear him better.
@Steven Moore ... doing my part in the hopes that this comment remains directly below @Silence of the Lamb's :)
Always good to have (GOOD) neighbors.. Smiley EMOJI>>
Imagine what they would've thrown if they REALLY liked him.
Um, I am betting that's not why they threw the brick. No matter how good the music might be to you, no one likes to be forced to listen to something nor have the baby be woken up all cranky.
@@NinjaKittyBonks lol--I didn't get the memo.
That is the most incredible solo I have ever seen, Hendrix would have been proud. Nobody can touch this.
ua-cam.com/video/j4pDQR3x7XQ/v-deo.html
Tender surrender live, from Steve vai. Blue one.
I'm 74, seen darn near all the best of our greatest era. Hendrix was never at this level. He was excellent, no question. But when you factor in the likes of SRV and Moore, for example, they are in a league to which very few can qualify.
Eddie surpassed this at age 22-23, not to say this guy isn’t making it wail but sheer ability Eddie Van Halen definitely touches this
It was too convoluted and longwinded
I have heard s few Carlos Santana solos that I like better.
Not saying Moore is not very talented, because he clearly is.
But Santana focuses more on the heart and soul of a tune like Europa or Samba pa'ti. He digs deep, deep down and tugs on the heart strings.
Moore does some of that too, but the raunchiness and speed takes away from that soulful element a bit
.
Still, Moore is a guitarist that anyone would love to have in theìr band for sure
I get chills when I listen to this guy play. Makes that guitar sing
Take your fucking mask off
Gary Moore made his guitar cry
@@cronje4809 you could hear the lyics as he played
Canta, llora, habla desde su alma.
As a 70yr old guitarist, playing since I was 14, this man takes my breath away...
Couldn't have said it any better!
RIP Gary Moore!
As a 75 year old guitarist who started at 11, I can certainly agree that a few of these guys are in another stratosphere!!! And they all came from our generation.
THE SAME HERE... Been Playing SINCE THE BEATLES . .
I think Gary is a very good musicia
sorry but what was the point of adding how long you played guitar for?
He had tone. More tone than most. Then he had chops. More chops than most. He also had soul. More soul than most. Put that all together and you had one intimidating force of nature.
And he had sustain🤟
@@maartenandries2576 He sure did. If I was in to humbuckers and big priced guitar set-ups, I would be looking at getting his tone. Awesome rig, but yep you need chops to really get the bet out of it.
gary moore found him out recently glad i did. btw does anyone know the chords for the rhythm of this song?
@@ArifKhan-vh2gx Trump's an idiot.
@@rebbeshort so are you, but don't worry, if you're listening to this, you can't be all bad.
I first listened to "Parisienne Walkways" back in 1995. I was only 22, your honour. Yet I have never heard this one until today - 08.01.2023. Beyond amazing.
It‘s out of the Montreux series - get it!! 👍
Wow! Just wow. it's like the guitar was literally wailing and crying, then enraged with anger just to come back down to sadness again.. All at the same time. That was amazing. Simply amazing. To watch an instrument actually FEEL. incredible.
@Treeezplz Hope you found the rest, he's the best!
The difference between a good guitarist and a great guitarist is that you actually feel every note with a great guitarist. I saw him twice and my jaw is still on the floor!
The guitar is crying, weeping, shouting, talking, and singing in the hands of this legend.
Well said.
Makes me weep as well brother ! Greetings from The Philippines and thank you.
Totally agree. It's amazing what you can do with pentatonic minor scales in the right hands.
yasser yasser PeterGreens Classic guitar Gary was one of the greats
IT SOUNDED LIKE SOMEONE WAS STRANGLING A GODDAM CAT!
Every time I watch this I’m moved. I discovered Gary like 3 months ago. I’m 48. I never put a face to the music. His songs are world renowned. What a magician.
Im 59 i listen to Gary as long as i remember .Thin Lizzy also
First heard him when he was 17 with the original Skid Row. Saw him with Colosseum 2 in 1976 and in the Scars tour around 2000. He was indeed fantastic. If you haven’t already, check out the Andrew Lloyd Webber sponsored’ Variations’ it’s basically Colosseum 2 (with Gary Moore) doing different interpretations of a theme byPaganini.
@ The Great Zambini I'm 62 years young, found him when he was with Thin Lizzy. He crossed over to the blues in 1990, the rest is history. And I sure hope you found the rest. I have all his DVD's and CD's and watch/listen to them all the time. None better!
In the same boat. I'm 45, discovered him like 6 months ago.
He absolutely ripped the soul out of that guitar. I listen to this in pure delight everytime.
Im now 62 , there is absolutely no one that can touch this ..........i literally have tears listening to this , happy tears. Genius like this is rare ..........Once in a lifetime. RIP Gary Moore
74 and feel same way
68 and when I thought I'd heard em all! One of the Titans for sure. This is a daily for me now.
you guys should check out Dave Simpson. Gary was a huge influence and motivation for Dave and the results are phenomenal 👍🏼🙏
also 62, same feeling....
It warms my heart to see another generations love of music I love.
Some guitarists are connected to the instrument in such a way that one can hear their very soul coming out of the amp. Gary Moore, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Albert King, B.B. King, Tommy Emanuel, Carlos Santana, Alvin Lee, Toy Caldwell, Duane Allman and so many others over the years ! Truly phenomenal players
While I'm at it check out Peter Green doing Albatross...good stuff !
Oh yes, Robert Cray too and JoeBonamassa👌
David Gilmour
Clapton!!
Eddie Van Halen, let's Not Forget Him. He was a Legend. RIP. EVH.
I know it's been over 10 years since he passed but GOD I STILL MISS HIM! Such an incredible guitarist. I think this was his last live performance before he died.
Que pena,yo también siento lo mismo, murió en Marbella, cerca de Málaga dónde yo vivo. Nunca lo olvidaré, el mejor para mí en el Blues.
@@fernandoballeste6909 I wish i spoke Spanish 🙃
It's easier than English, cheer up. Gary Moore is the best
I’ve heard some of the best guitarists in the world 🌎 and in my humble opinion he’s one of best I’ve ever heard in my lifetime!! Phenomenal musician 💜💜
in my top ten for sure. Maybe my pick for top blues player. For me, no one has a knack for melody or modulation skills like Marty Friedman. Check out this little jam he does in the first minute and a half, if you appreciate good guitar skill :) ua-cam.com/video/pKh5mGr8k4Y/v-deo.html
You would be absolutely correct.. I'd say top 25 .
Saw him live in Hamburg/Germany a couple of years before he passed away too early. The crowd was probably every guitar player in town. Gary would play a long solo and then just stopped for a second. The audience was dead quiet. He left them all speechless. Everyone was overwhelmed by this emotional performance. That´s how i remember Gary 😢
That is the most wonderful tribute from both them and you.
I saw a show at Tavern on the Bridge where it was Monte Montgomery 2nd time there and this time it was 40% guitarist from the Atlanta area that had heard about MM and the same thing.... during interludes people just jaw drop mesmerized. I know what you mean. This one is alltime world beater. RIP.
MM still here with us. Check him if you can. Peace .
In 1982 Gary was part of a festival in Hamburg, he opened with shapes of things, the stage was wall to wall fender amps, four cabinets tall, they were the entire backdrop, I never heard anything like it before, or since, I was a instant fan.
RIP Mr Moore, aloha
I saw him too, at The Albert Hall in London, he was incredible George Harrison was his guest. Gary was phenominal🖤🎸🎶
One of the few who could make a guitar sing, absolutely brilliant guitarist.
yes sir
As a big Roy Buchanan fan I can see where he gets a lot from.
Prince damn sure could make a guitar sing!!!!
You have too trow Stevie Ray Vaughan in that mix that could make it screem and wine these guy would have been all some together.
Put Hendrix on that list to
RIP Gary Moore (April 4, 1952 - February 6, 2011), aged 58
You will be remembered as a legend.
Just watched this for the first time. Had me in tears. Gary and his guitar were absolutely conjoined. They had to be - that guitar empathasised with every emotion a human could feel. Love, loss, joy, happiness, sadness - Gary and his guitar went through every emotion together. May they still be making beautiful music together in heaven now.
Lovely comment,Hello how are you dog 👋👋👋👋

I AM!!!
Yep. Been listening to him since I saw him with Thin Lizzy in 1974.

Me forever!!!

The second I played this video and heard the guitar it pierced my heart strings. I don't give a fuck how flash guitar players are nowadays, they're missing the feel of the old school players.
That's the thing, he's blisteringly fast but it's the feel he has, it comes from deep inside. No one comes close today.
U said it.. Once you've heard Gary play everything else just doesnt feel right
@@andrewbryers2919 buckethead still makes music
#Facts
There's no soul in music now days its all about me me me it's lost on them god help us all and god bless those who hear beauty
the way that gary can mix so many genres so fluently is insane, he can add rock, blues and styles of irish music to his masterpieces otherwise known as his songs, RIP Gary
This guy is incredible and underappreciated. Holding the first note grabbed me
Apparently he would mark the stage at every venue to work out where the spot was where he could pull that off… don’t know how true that was but saw it mentioned in a doc many many years ago…
Holding that note at the beginning was amazing
One proven thing to move grown men to tears is Gary Moore playing his Les Paul.
RIP you fucking legend
He's still alive, he's everywhere. CD's, LP's, memories, books, Internet.
Great people don't die.
No one stands the test of time. Not even the universe. God and Jesus only.
@@followthegrow108 Except they dont exist currently
People seem to have forgotten the effect a guitar played with true feeling can give more than any drug you can buy!
@@andymarmite5954 Well said mate! 👍🏼
Of course, he is alive, death does not exist, but there is a subtle spiritual world that is not visible to us.
For many years I have been in contact with the spiritual world and the souls of departed people; they are thousands of times more alive than us.
They can talk Clapton,Beck,Van Hale,SRV. Gary you are right up there with them. Your talent was just amazing. RIP my friend
My only regret in life is that I never saw him live . Loved you Gary!!
Yes I agree with you,Hello how are you doing 👋👋👋👋
Ditto
I've seen him live 3 times and his playing made me cry all 3 times.
Gary was a genius, his passion and soul was put into every note, he felt it, we felt it. There will never be another like him. And he rarely if ever played with his small finger!!! RIP Gary
What the song title?

This man is a genius. He knows what notes and sounds will make the music great.
pentatonics and harmonics. its not that hard to find the notes. but he is just superb in mixing them and bending and all kinds of licks and tricks
Yes.
I will never buy anything from an advertiser who interrupts this masterpiece.
One of the most underrated guitar players of all time, a true master. There will never be a blues player like Gary Moore, rip.
In my opinion Gary Moore and Joe Bonamassa are the two best rock blues guitarists to ever grace the world with their music and I believe Gary Moore is actually a little better!!
R.I.P Gary Moore and thank you for what you gave the world before you left it...
@@billbenningfield5344 bonamassa is fantastic, but Gary is in a different universe, which is fine cause he’s the greatest player of all time anyway
Absolutely! He was a legend
Underrated? Really? Lay off the crack....smh
Gary was not underrated. What an absurd claim.
You don’t listen to this you feel it. A total master of attack, feel, pace and sensitivity. I don’t think there was anyone else that had such blistering speed and timing as Gary moore. Sorely missed
Saw him twice when he first came over with Skid Row, he'll always be the ace. Chris. Norton.
Equal to David Gilmour and Jimmy Page or Eddie Van Halen!!!
@@fredguillaume993 Not close to Eddie but very different styles really. Still very good though.
Speed does not a good guitar player make. Moore is good but he's no Chet Atkins; no Joe Pass, no Django...and vice versa.
@@corkcamden9878 Completely bogus apples to oranges "comparison"
2024 I’m still listening to Gary he’s unreal
Gary is imo absolutely the most underrated guitarist of all time. He brought his music to life. Not something you just heard, but something many of us deeply felt. I won't even start on his technical ability because it knew no bounds. R.I.P. Mr. Moore. Thank God for giving you to us, for the period of time that he did....
I agree. When I look to see who are considered the top 10...top 25... or top 50 guitarists of all time he is never there. And I feel he can play as well if not better than alot of the players listed. This guy is unbelievable with his touch and sound!
well there are many underrated guitarists.
Malmsteen for example.
@@torydrake2846
that top 50 stuff is a lot of tripe.
last one I saw was just kissing Van Halens ass.
Not underrated.....how can you say that??? Adorated from biljon of fans!
Buried in a quiet churchyard in the picturesque village of Rottingdene, 4 miles east of Brighton...Enid Bagnold and Joan Thirkell are also interred there.
Great cliff bottom walk tho don't be put off by the horrible road at the front.
Oh, Dickens and Burne Jones resided here too if not for that long.
Underrated place...not much rated...yet lovely.

When you listen to Gary Moore for the first time it touches the inner most depths of your soul leaving you forever wanting more. RIP to the true genius of RnB.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👑
This gift was from God 🙏🙏😊
Yes you just nailed it for me
ABSOLUTELY DID, I BAWLED like a little baby with no hope!!
For the first time. Gary is not my favourite guitarist. But he hits a sweet spot in my ear, soul and heart, like no other. EVERYTIME
It's terrible when Gary Moore, who plays the guitar, gives goosebumps down my spine listening to it Rip gary
Best guitarist in my opinion.
Just listening to the feeling he puts into it gives me goosebumps.
Saw him at the Town & Country in Leeds years ago, and he blew me away.
This guy never got the credit he deserved
Yeah I agree
That’s true, he was the finest.
He wasn't a great singer.. i think that was why.
Plus, he is mostly known to many as just a 'Peter Green' tribute act.
Ray Duff xiiii
A Grg are you fucking kidding mate?
I never understood how Clapton was dubbed the king of blues when there's this genius.
It's because the people dubbed Clapton the King of Blues. There was no government that did that. And I can mention hundreds of great Blues performers, but they were not Clapton.
Well for starters they did not ask for your vote or for that matter mine!
@Exlord Lucan Yes, they're ALL wrong....
Because Gary Moore didn't sell his soul to Satan.
@@SHEEPSUK ...but he did sell it to Sustain.
Had the pleasure of seeing him play twice - once as a teenager in his first band, Skid Row, in the early 1970's and then alongside ZZ Top in 2002. Truly brilliant performances on both occasions
Think you mean Thin Lizzie in the early 70's
Died less than a year later.......... crazy! I play for hours every night, have done so for years and as I'm approaching 40 I can now see that I'll NEVER come close to that standard. 20 years ago it seemed possible, but with all the dedication and may I say my natural talent, I can't get close to that!!!!!!! Unbelievable skill, that guitar is just an extension of his fingers. He didn't have to 'learn', he could just 'do'!!!! What a man....
As an aging guitarist myself,I really appreciate Gary's full on devotion to his guitar methods,and his passion to his playing.Not everybody realizes this,but he actually played a note in the lead riff to his well known "Still got the blues for you", that didn't exist before he played it,because it was totally off the scale,literally.It was investigated at the time by one of the big American University music academies,and found to be pitch perfect,and therefore accredited to him as a new note!!! How's that for true talent,R.I.P.Gary Moore👍
wow that's a cool story!
What does that even mean? Pitch perfect? I'm not aware of that as a musical term, but I'm open to learning something new.
This is an impassioned solo, and this man clearly demonstrates mastery of the instrument, here and elsewhere, but this particular performance isn't necessarily definitive.
Exactly which note did he invent? Does it have a name?
@@davidcherry3107 Hello David,all musical instruments are tuned to a musical pitch,the standard guitar tune is in the pitch or key of E,and you can therefore tune your guitar by using a guitar tuner or before guitar tuners were invented,we used pitch fork tuners,or a piano to obtain correct pitch for the key of E.That said Gary played a note on the guitar that was actually above the fretboard (higher than is achievable by using standard frets)which generally consist of 22 frets for a standard electric guitar to 24 for an extended fret board guitar,Gary played a note that was consistent with the 27 th fret,which of course can be played on a grand piano but completely unheard of on a guitar,and when it was checked to see where it was in terms of pitch,was exactly in the centre of the 27th fret(which doesn't exist) and therefore pitch perfect!
The note in question,is the F note,(pretty standard stuff eh?)but this F was played on the top E string(1st string) up two full octaves!
@@richardhanly4446
Yes. The comment sounds like an urban legend type of thing.
The claim is fraught with questionable statements.
First, guitars aren't tuned to a key. In music, a key refers to a grouping of chords and scales that form the harmonic basis of a musical composition or part of a composition. When chords an notes are written in the traditional form, as opposed to a guitar tab, they are notated in concert C. There is no need to transpose, as there is with a flute or a trumpet for example.
The open strings in standard tuning are EAFGBE, so it wouldn't make any sense to say the guitar in "in the key of E Major, since G and D are not in the E Major scale.
Using standard tuning, the "27th fret" on the high E string would be a G 2. Much higher notes can and have been played on the guitar, using pinch harmonics for example.
Finally, the highest note on an 88-key grand piano is a C 8. Higher notes can and are achieved on the guitar using a variety of techniques and or technologies.
None of this is meant to take anything away from Gary Moore. He was certainly one of the great guitarists of his time.
Just to get it out of the way, I play the guitar, but not well enough to refer to myself as a guitarist. I play a handful of other instruments, and I play them all better than I play the guitar. I mention that in anticipation of the possibility of being attacked by other commentators.
There are so many truly great guitarists. I suppose we all have our favorites. I'm partial to Steve Vai, (especially the work he did with Frank Zappa and his live work with Dweezil), FZ, Prince, Terry Kath, Gary Clark Jr., Larry Carlton, Barney Kessel, Wes Montgomery, and George Benson, and of course Hendrix.
I don't think any of them (or any of the other great guitar players) have come even close to Hendrix, for reasons that can't be stated in words without subtracting from his otherworldliness.
I remember the hype over SRV, a genuine virtuoso, back in the 80s. I was incredibly impacted by his cover of Voodoo Child. But, if you listen to SRV play it, then listen to Hendrix, you quickly realize Hendrix was on a much higher plane.
Okay, I'll stop. Just meant to say, "you're correct." If the OP has a source for his claim and wishes to present it, I'll be happy to check it out. If I'm wrong, I'll be happy to admit it publicly.
I was incredibly lucky many years ago. I walked around the streets of Copenhagen (Denmark) where I live, and didn't know what to do, bored and no plans for the day.. Then I spotted a poster showing Gary Moore gave concert in just a few hours - bought a ticket - went home to shower and down a few beers to get in the right mood for epic guitar - Maaaan, did Gary blow us all into guitar-heaven that evening, best damn concert I´ve ever experienced!! On the other hand.. in the early 90´s I was prowling the streets on my beloved Kawasaki Gpz1000rx with my gf riding pilion. We had no plans for the weekend and ended up just driving back home and watch TV.. Later I found out Stevie Ray Vaughan was playing at Ringe Festival that weekend, just 1 hour ride from where we were.. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhrggg I´ll never get over that ;(
I bought two tickets to see Stevie Ray Vaughn. I split up with the gf I had at the time, I got them because she wanted to see him, so I gave them to a friend. He passed a year later. I kicked myself for that one, too.

It's like the Fender Clat, you can hear as soon as a Clat cuts into a tune.
Same with the Les Paul.
Beautiful.
And now Mr Hammett plays it very often 😉
Greeny!
Hey it’s greeny
A absolute master of his craft. One of the very best to ever play. Light years ahead of many today, some faster but not as tasteful.
My God, he plays with such emotion, his lifelong pain and suffering IS in his genius as a player....r.i.p.
@@ric3380 Like all of us he went through some very bad times starting off very early in life. We ALL go through long suffering, he had a very hard childhood. When the man passed, there wasn't even a grave stone for him until much later. Sad all the way around, again you can hear his pain in his playing.
Cant stop the tears, an artist completely mastered his craft. I wish.......
2:26 holyyyy, that riff is insane
ive replayed it 50 times and ive only known this song for an hour
@@KoMa3D777hell yeah, i always come back just to put that part on repeat
Brings chills to my body and tears to my eyes.
His guitar was an extension of his heart...Unbelievable legend guitar player of our time, nobody can come close to the heart beat of his playing..
Right for your comments
That’s a lovely way to put it. So true.
We should be thankful that these fantastic performances at the Montreux jazz festival are recorded to preserve these masterpieces for all to enjoy.
'Monster of Rock', Sheffield; a really good performance - and DVD too, and of course 'One Night in Dublin'...and much moore!
We are thankful!!!
First time ever hearing of this dude. Jesus. Must’ve been present this night. My god. What talent.
I don’t listen to this song often but when I do it’s like 6 times full blast ❤
He puts his heart and soul into it - he makes that guitar speak!
He gave me goose bumps from just 35 seconds in. Speak, yell, scream, cry, moan, and even whisper. Amazing talent, and as you say, it comes from his heart and soul.
This is like he is reading a book to you and although you don't hear words or know what the story is about, you still go the the same feelings and emotions as if you understood every word!
No one in the history of music has managed to take a Les Paul to such high levels! Only Gary Moore could and could do it.
He didn't play his guitar, he made his guitar cry. I miss him so much!
Speaking of Les Paul players, You might wanna check out John Sykes. He was big in the 70’s and 80’s, and has incredible vibrato, and really emotive playing like Gary!
I can think of a few; Peter Green, Snowy White
Slash is much better
And Prince 😅definitely can’t leave out Prince
Blues is God's favorite music!
I stumbled across Gary by accident while perusing some guitar music on Pandora. Just WOW!! Not sure how I hadn't heard of him before because I am a huge blues fan! I guess we can't know everyone, but my goodness. What a TOTAL pleasure to listen to him play! Few have i seen as passionate! Sad that he's gone.
Saw him in concert about a year before he sadly passed , the opening riffs almost stopped your heart, incredible , often overlooked ultimate master guitarist.
He was a true artist. Never played the same solo twice, he was speaking, always subtle changes. Miss him.
thats right, every time he played it was a different performance, he would change little nuances, which very few would even recognize, just insanely talented. He took control of that instrument and made it cry, sing, laugh, scream etc. So smooth, so frantic. live performances were so much more!!

Ironic comment considering his plagiarism convictions
so amazing.. This blues cuts my mind into pieces and goes straight to my heart..
Gary, you will remain legendary
no one else can replace Gary Moore, Rest in peace LEGEND 🕊️
This guitar piece gives me so much happiness. I listen to it again and again. What emotional, beautiful playing. And see, another thing is, see the expressions on the faces of the band artists. The keys. The bass/drums. Supporting him. Quietly, letting him take the lead. This is what I love about bands. So much respect for each other. So much space for self expression. The moment is so special. Just pure emotions running high with music. Precious moments, makes you feel why we are humans, why we love to love, why we are, why we exist. Rest in peace. Once in a while, some great musician comes to the earth. They leave behind something which makes us happy every time we absorb their creation. That's why god made musicians, so that they can fill our lives with happiness.
Dude.... When I read the first part of your comment I looked back to the video still playing at 4:05 and saw the bassist almost in tears, then I HAD to comment for the synchronicity of you picking up on that , much love to you my brother ❤️❤️
@@scottrowan7071 great to read your comment, and thank you :)
Same here.
I remember it was called and still do : Being Together :
Awesome
The man could make his guitar cry and talk. Still got the blues for you Gary.
Bell Bird Gary was something else... I’ve been trying to get John Mayer to cover Still Got The Blues!
Gary is simply the ultimate/master/pinnacle of guitar playing of all time.
31, just heard of him today, and ended up here. This was the first time music brought me to tears without a single word.
I listened to Gary Moore in the 80’s - none of my friends were even aware of this genius
Oh yes the 80s. When I discovered Out in the fields in 1985 I thought what an absolutely brilliant true rock song. Its got it all. And Gary absolutely smashed Friday on my mind and made the easybeats version sound boring.
Walking by myself, ready for love, blood of emeralds, texas strut...................put a Gary Moore cd on and a pair of quality headphones.................heaven!
He goes back to the 60’s with Skid Row then Thin Lizzy…right people in the 80’s didn’t know of him in the 60’s
@@arthurmckenna8154 well yes. I was born in 68 however I grew up in the 1980s, I knew nothing of Gary Moore until 1985 when I bought a 7inch single called "Out in the fields", it blew me away, then in 87 "Friday on my mind" was released, it blew the Easybeats version out of the water.
I have never heard a more energetic, powerful guitarist than Gary Moore. Hendrix may be the Master but my god Gary was astonishingly brilliant.
Same, everyone was raving about EVH and I’m like no man, you gotta listen to Gary Moore…
Playing from the the depths of his heart and soul......hard to find something better!!! Brought tears to my eyes......
What I Iove about this is there’s not a single phone being held up in the audience. People actually 100% present and connected with Gary.
Gary a guitar slinger god the passion & emotion I’ve never seen someone so switched on it’s in his fingers the best can’t get better from scorching to mellow riffs string bending with ease,breathtaking mindblowing legend can’t say enough about him in a superhuman league up a notch 2022 can’t get enough good music will always stay at the top and keep the fashion this slinger had the genius he was.🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
So sad that this guy is like the must underrated professional i have ever heard,just mind blowing solo!
Thanks UA-cam for the recommendation
Honestly, I think it was because his sound was so heavily processed, that he did not stand out, from so many other good players.
A GREAT pity - because his feel and technique are superb.
When he plays he goes all in. Truly one of the best ever!!
Growing up in Northern Ireland throughout the "troubles" in the 70's and 80's it was often difficult for me to see anything positive about my culture. Gary Moore was among a few who personally gave me hope. Although he never banged on about his Northern Irish roots he was born in Holywood that is Holywood with one "L" on the outskirts of Belfast. R.I.P Gary, even the late great BB King though he was something else and that IS saying something!
This is insane… I’m a Stevie ray Vaughan, jimi guy… had never heard of this guy before… but will definitely look for more of him
Listen to “ The Loner”…that is a wonderful piece as well…,
You never heard of him? Heard of Thin Lizzy? lol
OKAY, so...NOW I know who Gary Moore is, and why he's so revered as a guitar player by so many!
AWESOME!
Once, listening to Gary Moore, I thought, I'd like to be able to play with that much emotion ... then, immediately, I thought, actually, fuck no -- I can't handle that level of pain in my life. It's like he tears open his heart and bleeds all over the stage night after night. No question, this guy ain't faking the "blues".
🤣🤣☝ you people crack me up with this nonsense. The more stupid the face one pulls while playing their instrument doesn't mean their playing with more "soul". "Tears open his heart" 🤣🤣🤣
Michael i agree with yr words.Man like him or 4 example Rory gallagher(also Ierland) gave their lives like always on the road with hard work,sleeping in hotels or bus without family 2 give us that levell of musiquality. they live and died 4 the music.
@@deansley174 You literally don't get it lol. Nothing to do with his face... as a guitarist I was looking at his hands.. and listening. You'll notice the op wrote 'once, LISTENING to Gary Moore' as well. Mug.
@@deansley174 it has nothing to do with the face... its more about the feelings that come out of the music
Rolling stone is bullshit!!
I believe that is Greeny’s 59 he’s playing! Awesome sound
@Bill Dillon It is. Kirk Hammett bought it for $2 million. Just wish he could play it like Gary, or at least like Peter.
@@randyhibbs2491never in a million years
@@Napoleonwilson1973 Yeah, I don't see him improving at this point, LOL.
I’m homeless with my dog in my truck and was listening to this as rain snow fell heavily. Thank you, Gary.
One of the best guitarists ever.
Gary Moore had to have a very sad heart. No one could have put so much emotion in to their playing like this otherwise! I didn't discover Gary until I was 59 years of age. I had seen Thin Lizzy in concert back in the 70's but was young and just wanted to party and unknowingly, he helped me do that. I din't know his real music until right after my wife passed away. Me and Vodka found him very late one night and I finally understood. I've moved on, Vodka is gone but still love Gary's music!
I saw him too with Thin Lizzy opening up for Queen in '77 at the Montreal Forum. It was my first big arena show at 14 and boy was I served! I didn't know who he was at the time but I just remember being blown away by those Thin Lizzy guitarists. When I found out more than two decades later who it was that I'd seen back then I couldn't believe my luck. I'd pay big bucks now to see that Thin Lizzy show again (I had payed 7.50$ CAD plus taxes at the time) and be able to witness a true guitar legend like Gary Moore was and forever will be. Bless him!
Be kind to yourself ,loss isn't easy.
I'll have to spin my vinyl LP
Chinatown
I know his brother, bourbon. Bout to part ways as well. Guaranteed
I occasionally enjoy his music with my friends Johnny Walker, Jim Beam, Jack Daniels & Bud Weiser!😁😁
And that boys n girls,
Is how u do that.
Old school NEVER goes out of style.
Billy C I call it timeless school
I call it SOUL.
And you don't get it at the music store.
It's born into one's DNA.
Soul
Rhythm
And practice, practice, practice.
I havena Son who followed the formula as per my introduction to him, concerning performance music.
He's still in the same band. A really hot band. And he's one of MY guitar heroes.
J. Milton Jeffreys , u sending this to me is beyond all comprehension. I voiced my opinion just like everyone else, yet you felt the need to criticize me directly. I guess ignorance suits you.
@J. Milton Jeffreys, Yeah, you're wrong.
This is phenomenal!! I saw him several times and many of his songs 'got me' but the one that 'got me' the most ... believe it or not, was his rendition of Need Your Love So Bad, in Leeds. Tears rolling down my cheeks for all to see ... who cares. It was ..... just fabulous ... so moving. R.I.P Gary.
No one comes close to his vibrato. RIP , Gary Moore. Thanks for the tunes man. 🎶🎸
I Actually kind of thought it was shrill and spastic. Marty Friedman's vibrato is much better
I miss Gary Moore. He used to pour his soul into his playing. The man could make a Les Paul cry. RIP
...and he doesn’t even figure in Rolling Stones' list of the top 100 guitarists. Criminal! What were they thinking?
Rolling stone has no real credibility in my opinion just more pop culture garbage. Lists aren't important anyway musical tastes and favorites are just subjective to each individual.
I'm thinking they know alot more than you dipshit
paul chamberlain
Not if they missed Gary Moore, than they must’ve had Their head up their arse
@@paulchamberlain4562 If they didn't include Gary Moore on the list then no they don't know crap...dipshit
Who gives a flying dick about rolling stone magazine's list anyway,sure they will list the slot of genuine greats but a lot of others shouldn't be anywhere near a top list of anything except the top mediocre guitarist list
May God hold Gary's very soul in His hands.... Thank you Gary! RIP
After I heard this, I believed Gary might BE God. Emotion pours from my being when I play this masterpiece, I can't control my tears, tears of awe. Music is therapy.
This is insane. I had no idea. Thanks for posting this epic solo 🙏
Saw Gary live several times and he always gave it everything. This has just made a rough day significantly better. Thanks Gaz!!!! RIP. 🤸
Hello how are you doing
I'm glad I experienced this man's talent in my lifetime. I saw him with Thin Lizzy and have admired him throughout his remaining career. I miss him and am sorry he is no longer with us. His music will live on.
Yes, just recently found this breathtaking man&I am 73&have been a hard core “Prince “ fan!I want both of them brought back!!😍😍🥰💜👍🎸🎸🎸🎼 Nanny Stick Sister 💜
It was good to listen to this again without a commercial in it. As for any debate between Gary Moore and Eric Clapton, well there shouldn't be any. Gary is closer to Jeff Beck jazz, than to Eric blues. He has developed his own sound as have Clapton. They are both Epic performers each with their own right of passage. Rip Gary, and Eric, here's to a few more good years. You both have contributed beyond excellence in the art of the guitar. And forgive me if I ever misled anyone to think one is better than the other. Greatness has no bounds nor a single performer.
I have a place near where he died in Estepona every time i drive past the Hotel Kempinski i say thank you Gary for your Magnificent music x
