Every time I here this guy I am more impressed and totally blown away. Been a fan for many years and convinced Gary could get great tone out of brick, tree branch and a piece of hemp rope….in the vid he is trying out what look like the Hendrix stack, hard to really see but sounds amazing as always…thought I would share as I know there are some Gary Moore fans here somewhere…

I cant believe that was a 59slp. There must have been some drive pedal involved. I've never played a plexi that distorted that much. I was looking at the backline to see which speakers were mic'd. It was indeed the plexi stack. It sounded more high gain, I initialy thought it was the VM.

Enjoyed the vid. They still have a guy on the end of the productionline at Bletchley with a lespaul. He plugs into the amp, blasts a bit and sends it off to be packaged. The bassist in my band was telling me of a guitarist who went round to see Jim Marshall, he was in his garage making birdtables. He asked if he could have one and Jim Marshall wrote the Marshall logo on the bird table. Thats gonna be worth a mint in years to come.

Well, he is just unreal. :)

I hope many of you have heard him play a strat. He can do whatever he wants.

A lot of his tone reminded me of early Clapton.

Gary Moore is without a doubt in my fave five.lol I am a fanatic for Gary as he gets played everyday. I swear no one can do a Django like him. Watch the blazing runs he does with just his index and middle finger. Just mind blowing.You want to know how good Gary Moore is, they were giving Yngwie a blindfold test years ago in Guitar World and being his arrogant self he crucified 7 out of the 10 players they put on for him to hear. Yet when they played Gary, Yngwie went thats Gary Moore just a great player. I almost fell off my chair as he actually complemented someone as the guys he flamed included-Jeff Beck,Kirk Hammet-Joe Satriani amongst others. The next month there was four pages of readers comments ripping up Yngwie, and a cartoon of God on a cloud playing guitar and Yngwie blind folded going "Terrible -your playing out of key'

Yeah someone posted a vid not too long ago of him playing a strat at a fender show celebrating the strat. /2004 in Wembley arena …that has officially become my favorite version (sorry Jimi) of Red House…

And I agree with Mike, as I sure do miss the Thin Lizzy years too….there are actually a lot of rock fans that are mad that Gary had left the Rock Genre for the Blues world…..though I miss the old stuff I really dig his blues and think it showcases his abilities well.

Cheers
Bill
