IMHO, Gary Moore is the greatest guitar player that ever lived and this is the greatest guitar performance ever recorded. Every note is impeccably selected whether it's a slow part or his lightening speed riffs. This is flawless! I've been a musician for 60 years and I've seen many of the greats live including Jimi Hendrix, BB Kind, Jeff Beck and many, many more and Gary was in a class by himself.
Yes he is one of the great guitarists, but this is a cover and the original has lyrics which come between a beginning and end. Roy Buchanan’s original work has deep significance and the key motives are admirably echoed by Gary but without the lyrics the title is meaningless and the whole beauty of the piece just becomes one guitarist’s skill.
Ya know........I couldn't agree more. Eddie had the speed and the dive bombs and tapping., but Gary had all the skills and so much soul. Until I first listened to him, I didn't know the blues could be played like this
@@barsandbarbells2022 I saw him in concert on every tour from 1985 until his very sad death. He brought the same level of skill and passion to every performance. He was a very, very special talent. I met him twice and he was a really reserved guy and softly spoken.
@@shspurs1342 Gary Moore played with Peter green's guitar most of his late career and he payed a lot to get that guitar. Played it well, but definitely not as good as Peter Green. Peter Green is probably top 10 of all time guitarists, maybe top 5.
@@79BlackRose I have listened to Gary Moore many more times than Peter Green who had a great tone but not around all that long, and he has only himself to blame. Mental illness is insidious.
Absolutely one of the best!! I think the first time I heard him sing was in the song End of The World which by the way is VERY underrated (in my opinion)
seeing Gary in concert was one of the best things I've ever done. He's even better playing live. Listen to I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow from Rockin Every Night, AMAZING.
Gary Moore is probably the most underrated guitarist, just because of exposure. Very few could, or ever will, be able to transmit emotion through their guitar quite like Gary. A true master musician R.I.P. Gary Moore
I am an American who is old enough that I saw SRV and 100's of other guitarists, but Gary Moore is my number one guitarist of all-time! I never saw him live!
Finally another human has done a reaction to this. This is easily in the top 3 greatest guitar performances ever. Thanks a trillion for doing this. Words are superfluous when listening to Gary. He is just raw emotion.
Yup until I heard this i always considered Gilmores sol on the pulse tour of comfortably numb was This just blew my mind thats why I requested it glad you enjoyed it Roy Buchannan wrote it and is no slouch himself
Please, let's not leave Jeff Beck out of the conversation of emotive players. He's the only one I ever heard that could make the guitar emulate a human voice - Where Were You and Cause We've Ended As Lovers (Exhibitis A & B).
@@Mister_Samsonite I agree and Jeff's work with the Yardbirds although short produced a great album in Roger The Engineer. Any man who can replace Eric Clapton in a band has to be pretty awesome in his own right.
Gary Moore was an absolute monster of a guitar player. Best vibrato in the business. His heavy rock playing in the 80’s was incredible. Most exciting player I ever saw.
Giusto, Rudy, concordo!! Passione struggente da fare salire le lacrime agli occhi, potenza, dolcezza, vibrazioni, emozioni ....grandissimo artista, anche nel cantare, e nei vari generi, interprete potente🎸rip Gary, sei mitico❣️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
EVERY, literally EVERY feeling is represeted in this masterpiece! Despair, hope, tenderness, pure masculine energy, love, glory, impatience.............. Long live Gary Moore, king of blues!
My favourite guitarist when it comes to not just technical ability but the emotion he instills in his playing. Another recommendation which includes him singing is Still Got The Blues live In Montreux
I saw an interview with EVH around 1982 and of course they asked who his favorite guitarist was, and without a moment's hesitation he said, "Gary Moore". The interviewer was stunned.
Just before he died, George Harrison said the same thing. His last live performance was with Gary Moore playing " While my guitar gently weeps" so tastefully, and beautifully played , you can find a " bootleg" version on UA-cam
i saw michael schenker, in a small club in germany,in the early 2000's, insanely talented guitarist. nobody like him. the one thing he and gary moore have in common, is, when they play, its like their guitar is another song, playing at the same time. telling a story separate from the main song.
Wow what can you say about that , words cantt do that justice as to how indanely brilliant that was, Im my humble opinion the greatest guitar solo ever Gaty Moore should be known across the world for his guitar skills there have been many many giutar greats but Mr Moore was the best of the best, the no 1, So missed and what could have been , its criminally to think on what we have missed out on since Feb 6th 2011, what a catalogue he has but how much more rich it could have become. GARY THE GREAT, GARY THE GUITAR GENIUS RIP Mr Moore your music will live on forever abd one day the boy from Belfast will receive the accolades and fame his talent and style so richly deserves
What a legend. He was also a great Metal Artist before he found his destiny in Blues. "Over the hills and far away", "Empty Rooms". Both songs are fantastic.
Saw Gary on numerous occasions here in the UK. Even when he was with Bruce and Baker, BBM. R.I.P. Gary. Your music from the early days through every album/live performances will be with me forever. Love from an Englishman to you 2 for reacting to that.
Saw gary do this as an encore at Manchester Apollo in1990... merciful jesus...He brought the house down, i will take that memory to my grave .... He was off of the chart 💞🎶🎸RIP DEAR GARY...Taken home way to early.✖️❤️✖️
Underrated vocalist, sublime, intense guitar player...not a lot of people can do that on a Pro level...Joe Bonamassa, Ritchie Kotzen or even Ritchie Sambora, they all can sing and play...but Gary is unmatched imo
Saw him first time 1989 before that tour he said no more hard rock after that tour so i heard all the '80s classics! Next time was 1990 when he had switched to blues and toured with Albert Collins.
As a woman from Ireland 🇮🇪 I have to Gary was definitely one of the best guitarists ever. I also love him doing Parisian ways. He sings a wee bit. RIP Gary, delighted you reacted to this talented amazing musician
@@79BlackRose I know that , thank you. Unfortunately the auto correct wouldn’t let me type that. I gave up 😂😂. Thank god I once seen him do it with Phil Lynott
@@Cath1027 For sure. I cried my eyes out for them both. I saw Gary on every tour from 1985. I saw Thin Lizzy on their farewell tour in 1983 and Phil with Grand Slam the following year. Legends both.
Guys, with all due respect Gary Moore is category for himself… you can’t say he is mixed/combined any other guitar player… Gary is something special… maybe unrevealed to mainstream media… love and peace ❤
He came and left 3 times between 1973/74 - 1980. The Lizzy song Still In Love With You is actually co-written by Gary. His name "fell off" after his first and unexpected departure from the band and he did all the guitar parts on the studio version.
@danielolson5378 Yes, still in love with you was actually a combination of a piece Gary moore wrote and a piece that Phil wrote combined into one song. It's a shame Gary Moore didn't get credit for his part in writing it.
Definitely check out Roy Buchanan. He was definitely one of the Greats, with his own unique style of playing. Roy could out-shred most other players, and could play in many styles.
@johnlocke6506 ... and don't forget Colisseum II, and later, his hair rock excursion via G-Force and then the faux Cream reunion 'band', BBM with Bruce and Baker.
I have never seen anyone who can make their instrument sing like Gary Moore ! So glad to see you get into his music. Other great tunes from him is Still Got The Blues , parisienne walkways ua-cam.com/video/vkUpfw4Hf3w/v-deo.html Story of the blues official video. He is a pure master of his instrument, and sadly gone way to soon. Thanks for listening to Gary, it's like angels singing when he plays. Cheers from down under 😎🤘
Well, that guitar belonged to Peter green, and he certainly played it better than Moore. Not to take anything from Moore, but Green was on another level when it comes to blues.
Gary is phenomenal. Starting out with thin Lizzy then out on his own. Being emotional he plays with will bring tears to your eyes. One of my top five guitarist of all time. Thanks guys for your reaction .
No one will ever play with more fire, emotion and feeling than Gary Moore. Saw him loads of times live. Always gave 100 pst and then some. Could play anything, from jazz/fusion with Collusseum II to hard rock with Thin Lizzy and everything between and beyond. Best guitarist ever.
I just read Gary's biography, and his only goal in life was to be the best guitar player ever. He may very well have accomplished his mission! Very few players have the soul, passion, and technique that Gary had. A true genius!
No One can make a guitar sing like Gary Moore!!! He was in the band 'Thin Lizzy' before going solo and, thank the stars he did. He gave us some of the best 6 sting performances of all time!! 'The Loner' is another lyricless song that you should check out!! 'Out in the Fields' with Phil Lynott or 'Still Got the Blues' is a must for any Gary Moore fan!!
The "peaks and valleys" of Gary's dynamics are second to none - live or in the studio. He blended the raw emotion of SRV with the amazing technical ability of EVH, which I always found so appealing. Truly one of the greatest ever!
That Gibson Les Paul Gary is playing originally belonged to Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac. It currently belongs to Kirk Hammett of Metallica and is dubbed "Greeny" Its estimated to have cost Kirk ~$2 million.
@@elvinposey5251 Well, at least he loves it and respects it. He claims to never sleep more than 10 feet away from it - it's got to be in the room, and he plays a couple of songs on it at every concert. It's still a working guitar. I don't know of any other guitar that has this much pedigree - being owned by three guitar greats, and being played in front of huge audiences for nearly 60 years, continuously.
The guitar deserves an honorable mention too, it’s got a history. It’s name is Greeny. Greeny is a 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard, named after its original owner, Peter Green. He used it during his time in John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers and Fleetwood Mac, before selling it to Gary Moore in the early 1970s. Moore used the guitar throughout his career, both as a solo artist and in bands, such as Thin Lizzy. In 2014, Greeny was acquired by Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett, who has since used it both in the studio and during live performances.
I don't think Moore did justice to Green's guitar. Listen to Peter green playing thar beauty and you can clearly see the difference. Moore is still one of the best guitarist to ever lived but Peter Green was on another level.
Gary Moore Was One Of The Greatest Guitar Players Ever Was a Member of My Favourite Irish Band Thin Lizzy Did One Album With Lizzy The Black Rose a Brilliant Album, He's Got Some Classic Solo Tracks Too Worth Checking Out - After The War, Empty Rooms, Over The Hills and Far Away To Name Just 3, This Is a Masterpiece In Guitar Playing RIP 🙏 Gary Moore.
saw Gary Moore with Def Leppard and Krokus Love Gary Moore he was also in Thin Lizzy and in Ireland a band called Skid Row in Ireland with Phil Lynott of Thin Lizzy Gary Moore is a Legend GOAT 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
You know, I've watched MANY reaction videos. The first thing I look for is do these people appear authentic, and y'all passed my sniff test. I honestly subscribe to a few reaction channels but you've got a new subscriber now. Thanks for getting it with Gary Moore. He's been a favorite guitarist of mine since first him play 🎸
Gary does arguably the best performance from a blues artist with a song called "Parisian Walkaway" done before many thousands of his fans in Dublin Ireland. It is a big production and is all over UA-cam. I have watched it many, many times and it was not too long after he recorded this performance that he died. Don't miss this, whatever you do. Thank You
Gary was not just a Blues guitarist. He kinda started of that way when he started playing and definitely was it in his later years since this year 1990 where this video is from, but he did many styles and was many years a Rock guitarist. There were mentioned a lot of his blues tracks already, and I just want to add “Separate Ways” here live 1992 in London (absolute mind blowing and jaw dropping double intro in that one), but I want to mention at least one of his best rock performances, which for me is “Empty Rooms” live in Stockholm 1987, a beautiful piece of music!! There’s also “Thunder rising”, “Military Man”, “Over the Hills and far away” and “All messed up” from the same concert, and many others! Enjoy the ride! Oh, and this guitar here is very special and very famous, she’s called “Greeny” and got it from Peter Greene when he was about 15 or 16! Currently it’s proudly in the hands of Kirk Hammett from Metallica!
For me “Empty Rooms” from We Want Moore live album is a better version than the Stockholm one. I feel that tour suffered from his use of Charvel guitars which have a rather harsh tone.
I've always wanted to see a reaction by those that have never heard of Gary Moore and totally get it mentally of how amazing he was. I'll keep saying he was the best that has ever been....!
my number 1 six-stringer. No one did it better !! While Gary did play blues in the latter part of his career he was not strictly a blues player. Gary was very proficient in fusion with Colosseum II, hard rock with Thin Lizzy and later on the blues. Unlike a lot of guitar players Gary was no one trick pony. He played each style with his customary fierceness and passion. For me no one plays like Gary. And he was criminally underrated and underappreciated.
LOL those swells...he is turning the volume off when he plucks the string, then turning it up as he uses hand vibrato, to give it that keyboard sound. It's like a clinic in the technique, both physically and musically.
IMHO, Gary Moore is the greatest guitar player that ever lived and this is the greatest guitar performance ever recorded. Every note is impeccably selected whether it's a slow part or his lightening speed riffs. This is flawless! I've been a musician for 60 years and I've seen many of the greats live including Jimi Hendrix, BB Kind, Jeff Beck and many, many more and Gary was in a class by himself.
I agree
Agreed. No offense to Gilmour, Clapton, Johnson, SRV, Hendrix, VH, Gallagher, or a host of others. But in my book he is at the top.
Well said sir 🎼👌

In no particular order: Roy Buchanan, Danny Gatton , Scotty Anderson, Johnny Winter.... so many legends that don't get the recognition deserved.
Saw him live at Bournemouth with BB King two legends now gone...

@@vinlondon8904 Not bad at all, too bad Green imploded while Moore had a stellar career.
@@vicprovost2561 many greats didn't have a great career.
Look at becks, Gallagher, buchanan.
An outstanding passionate performance!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
Gary Moore Was One Of The Greatest Guitar Players Ever Was a Member of My Favourite Irish Band Thin Lizzy Did One Album With Lizzy The Black Rose a Brilliant Album, He's Got Some Classic Solo Tracks Too Worth Checking Out - After The War, Empty Rooms, Over The Hills and Far Away To Name Just 3, This Is a Masterpiece In Guitar Playing RIP 🙏 Gary Moore.

You know, I've watched MANY reaction videos. The first thing I look for is do these people appear authentic, and y'all passed my sniff test. I honestly subscribe to a few reaction channels but you've got a new subscriber now. Thanks for getting it with Gary Moore. He's been a favorite guitarist of mine since first him play 🎸
The greatest master of the blues, rock and metal
The ultimate performance Gary was the best , forget the so called top ten , SRV to 🎼👌
Gary does arguably the best performance from a blues artist with a song called "Parisian Walkaway" done before many thousands of his fans in Dublin Ireland. It is a big production and is all over UA-cam. I have watched it many, many times and it was not too long after he recorded this performance that he died. Don't miss this, whatever you do. Thank You
MASTERCLASS, nuff said.!!!
Gary was not just a Blues guitarist. He kinda started of that way when he started playing and definitely was it in his later years since this year 1990 where this video is from, but he did many styles and was many years a Rock guitarist. There were mentioned a lot of his blues tracks already, and I just want to add “Separate Ways” here live 1992 in London (absolute mind blowing and jaw dropping double intro in that one), but I want to mention at least one of his best rock performances, which for me is “Empty Rooms” live in Stockholm 1987, a beautiful piece of music!! There’s also “Thunder rising”, “Military Man”, “Over the Hills and far away” and “All messed up” from the same concert, and many others! Enjoy the ride! Oh, and this guitar here is very special and very famous, she’s called “Greeny” and got it from Peter Greene when he was about 15 or 16! Currently it’s proudly in the hands of Kirk Hammett from Metallica!
For me “Empty Rooms” from We Want Moore live album is a better version than the Stockholm one. I feel that tour suffered from his use of Charvel guitars which have a rather harsh tone.
I've always wanted to see a reaction by those that have never heard of Gary Moore and totally get it mentally of how amazing he was. I'll keep saying he was the best that has ever been....!
Gary Moore looms as a guitar god in. Ireland as far as I can remember in my 60 years of life.
One word AMAZING ❤
The best guitar player, he died too early can you imagine what he would be like now !
my number 1 six-stringer. No one did it better !! While Gary did play blues in the latter part of his career he was not strictly a blues player. Gary was very proficient in fusion with Colosseum II, hard rock with Thin Lizzy and later on the blues. Unlike a lot of guitar players Gary was no one trick pony. He played each style with his customary fierceness and passion. For me no one plays like Gary. And he was criminally underrated and underappreciated.
God touched him took us all to heaven RIP Gary 💔💔
He was absolutely the fastest, unbeaten
LOL those swells...he is turning the volume off when he plucks the string, then turning it up as he uses hand vibrato, to give it that keyboard sound. It's like a clinic in the technique, both physically and musically.
Gary moore was Europe's version of SRV. Gary was amazing
Best guitarist ever
