Oh, the great Gary Moore. No one played the guitar better. The man was a wizard, that understood what to play, and when not to play it. For me, he is the greatest player I have ever heard.
Gary Moore was one of the best blues guitar players who could hold his own in the rock world. His expression on the guitar was unmatched. Gary Moore will forever be a legend. He was a phenomenal guitarist who had an excellent voice. It was a sad day when he passed away
I wonder if that was a Uilleann pipe? It's a Irish variety of the Scottish, but pumped up by using the elbow. If you've seen Nightwish their 6th member Troy uses one.
The Messiah Will Come Again will always be his greatest song. That is just like 10 minutes of epicness on a scale that only a few guitarists have ever reached.
Do moore Gary!! He has a awesome catalog.. out in the fields, cold black night, cold day in hell, still got the blues. And he is one of the best gitarrplayers in the world!
his "Victims of the Future" album is one of my all time favorites. "Devil In Her Heart", "Law of the Jungle", and the title track "Victims of the Future" are epic. RIP to one of the best of all time. when Greg Lake of ELP released his solo album "Maneuvers" Gary Moore was the only person he thanked in the notes of the album. for an epic instrumental, check out "Alone".
I saw him live in my city here in Sweden 1990 at the Concert Hall. The last encore he did was The Messiah and man did he played his heart and soul out or what?! He did it with lots of improvisation and with that passion and feeling only Gary could create when he played.
A great tribute to Gary's Irish roots and spirit in this song. he often merged his own music with the stuff you can still hear today in the pubs in Ireland. Anyone who knows the Irish landscape and its people's strong connection with their culture and music knows that without it there would be no Gary...nuff said.
As a person in their mid-sixties its fantastic to realise the music and artists I grew up with will carry on with your channel, love the comments and reviews, younger music lovers listen to the great artists of the past and appreciate them Rock On
Gary Moore - Empty Rooms live Stockholm 1987!!!! Please! Amazing performance with Eric Singer (of Kiss on drums) & Bob Deisley ( Rainbow/ Ozzy on bass)
Gary Moore era completo, excelente guitarrista e que voz!que talento! Músicas como essa nunca mais, pra mim melhor que anos 80 pra música não tem. Gary Moore lenda! Ele tem muitos fãs brasileiros 🇧🇷
Which were extremely rare in rock music back then (well, to be fair they still are) - this may even be their first use in that genre. Now the best-known performer on them is Troy Donockley of Nightwish! The Celtic rock vibe is a perfect fit for them - I mean, who the heck else has an uilleann piper in the band?
This is the album i liked the most of him, when he shifted from rock to blues i was very sad because I thought 'Still got the blues' was pretty bad (And still do). But much later when i heard a live blues performance of his i understood why he dedicated himself to it because I've never heard a more amazing and expressive blues guitarist in my life. :)
The instrument you are referring to is called uilleann pipes. Irish bagpipe. The air is pumped from the elbow. Basically the song is traditional Irish music rock.
There is nobody better than Gary Moore doing this song. Gary Moore was more than just an awesome voice, he was one of the best guitar players in history. Nightwish does not compare. His death still saddens me
a cover should NEVER sound exactly like the original.....otherwise, it's merely a copy.....pay attention, Scott Davey.....you can love Garry's original, but don't insult the bands that do a cover.....rip Garry
Oh man this is fantastic! Very dramatic....what would you call that type of music? It's amazing! I already know about Moore, but I've never seen this vid and I'm mesmerized.
Dei here. OH YES. OH HELL YES! I've had this song on my "request" list for a while, but I couldn't decided between it, Wild Frontier or Out in the Fields. The Wild Frontier album changed my life as a kid. Thank you Charles!!!
Now you guys gotta check out Blood of Emeralds with Gary and/or Black Rose with Thin Lizzy two epic songs with a very clear Irish/Celtic influence just like this one. It's not bagpipe but close it's called Uileann Pipes and It's the Irish type of bagpipe so to speak.
They used a drum machine for this song. Of course they were able to replicate it with a drummer later, but it goes to show how good Jukka Nevalainen (Nightwish) was, well I still say is as I hope he will be able to return one day (to take a line from this song). I remember hearing this when I was 17 and apart from Out in the Fields it was really the only Gary Moore song I knew... within two months I had all his solo albums and still think he is the best sounding clean guitarist ever.
The instrument you asked about is the uilleann pipe, the national pipes of Ireland. The piper is legendary Chieftains frontman Paddy Moloney (RIP), and the guy who plays the prisoner is Mark Ryan, voice of Bumblebee in the Transformers movies
Yes, moore Gary, please! On his journey, he also played a couple of short stints in Thin Lizzy. Please check them out, too. Moore and more. Oh, these bad jokes...
The late and great Gary Moore no wonder Miyako (Lovebites) is such a fan the man made you feel every note he played on that weapon, to the point you would swear it was crying. Anything he has done is great a true master of that instrument. Here one of the old Moore renditions of a old English song that dates back to the late 1600's. A more tribal sound that most of the covers.
Fantastic to see your reaction, the Wild Frontier album & the 12 inch single version are far superior to this edited version. I vividly remember hearing the UK first radio play of Over the hills & far away on the Friday night rock show in November 1986 presented by Tommy Vance & I just thought it was brilliant. The uillean pipes really add to the song. Sadly I never met Gary, I did see him play live fortunately. I did however spend 6 hours in the company of Tarja Turenen former lead singer of Nightwish at a recording studio near Moate in County Westmeath in the Republic of Ireland in 2007. Gary was part of the holy trinity of musical geniuses from the island of Ireland Van Morrison, Rory Gallegher & Gary. 06.02.2011 we lost one of the greatest guitar players ever. R.I.P. Robert Gary Moore.
Could the feel possibly be because they are Irish.....and these folklores have been passed down thru generations of the Irish??? Hence, the little boy bringing the storybook to his father at the fire, to read to him.
Tne Ulliean Pipes are the Irish 'small pipes' Theres several versions of the small pipes.. across Scotland Ireland and the far north of England..small.pipes are an indoor chamber music instrument unlike the Great Pipes which are essentially a weapon or war. Playing the Great Pipes indoors is deafening. Which is why the small pipes were developed. The design is very very old and rather than blow up the bag with your mouth you pump air in.witb bellows under your other arm. So you squeeze the bellows with your left arm.and you squeeze the bag with your right
Loved your reaction. Agree both the original by Gary Moore and the cover by Nightwish are great. I strongly recommend a third version, Over the Hills and Far Away by Patty Gurdy. She plays an instrument you may never have seen or heard before. Not going to spoil the surprise, if you are curious, but her cover is also excellent, and true to the original.
@@DrSkeff, while Gary Moore retained the line "Over the hills and far away," the lyrics are completely different. The English folk song is about service in the King's or Queen's Army, depending on the time period it was sung. The basic melody line may have a few similarities, but Gary Moore composed the bulk of the song, music and lyrics. Calling it a cover is a bit of a stretch, IMO. The 1990s British TV series Sharpe featured a version of the English folk song. If you listen to it, you'd be hard pressed to think of the two versions as the same song.
@@Drescher1984 Out in the Fields is on Gary Record Run for Cover. It was never on an Thin Lizzy Studio Album. The Song is written by Gary a long time after he left Thin Lizzy the second Time. And Dedication is not a Greatest Hit Album , its dedicated to the Life of Phil Lynot…..
at 5:19 i think it's called "Irish War Pipes" and the drums were war drums. I read that the story ends with the guy spending 10 years in prison and his lover lady writing him letters. ah i found it!: "Another familiar face in the video is Paddy Moloney of the legedary Irish folk group The Chieftains. He is playing a bagpipe in the video, but has never been credited with actually playing anything on the song or album, so was likely just around/available to pop in. He certainly adds a lot of clout to the Celtic credentials of the song!"
Probably already mentioned, the quick inclusion of Paddy from the Chieftains in this video. If not familiar with them, you should be. Celtic band but highly influential to many rock bands. If there was a real music hall of fame, they'd be first ballot inductees.
And come to think that Tuomas did much more new aged version of this. This sounds so weird because I've only heard the NW version of this song. Origina,ly i thought Tarja had so much part writing or creating this song that was the reason she got rights to it. But in Denver Debacle NW p.ayed this song featuring Alissa White and Elize Ryd. Those girls(young beautiful women) sure saved Tuomas's ass that day. And that was final nail concerning Anette being former NW front woman. She got too big for her fans, Diva syndrome. Didn't wanna do smaller venues anymore. But being in a band that is/was that popular can do that to anyone i guess. Everybody shouting your name like crazy, asking autographs, interviews and such 24/7 every day of the week, throughout the years. Well it turned alright when Floor said yes.
Oh, the great Gary Moore. No one played the guitar better. The man was a wizard, that understood what to play, and when not to play it. For me, he is the greatest player I have ever heard.
Can not disagree
100% agreed
Only Jeff Healey comes even close...
@@DjKorppi Miyako from Lovebites is a great fan of Gary's. She would do this justice.
Totally agree with you, i dont think anyone will ever come close!!!
The guy seen in the video playing the Uilleann Pipes is Paddy Moloney, the founder of the Irish musical group, The Chieftains. Gary Moore RIP.
Gary Moore was one of the best blues guitar players who could hold his own in the rock world. His expression on the guitar was unmatched. Gary Moore will forever be a legend. He was a phenomenal guitarist who had an excellent voice. It was a sad day when he passed away
Gary, one of the best guitarists in the world.
Top 5 for me. 😊😊😊
He made the sound of a bagpipe with his guitar. . AWESOME.
I wonder if that was a Uilleann pipe? It's a Irish variety of the Scottish, but pumped up by using the elbow.
If you've seen Nightwish their 6th member Troy uses one.
@@andreaspedersen3952 oh boy, that was a long time ago. Don't know if it was a Scottish or Irish bagpipe.
It was awesome though.
The Messiah Will Come Again will always be his greatest song. That is just like
10 minutes of epicness on a scale that only a few guitarists have ever reached.
This needs to be done. Gary must never be forgotten.
Ohhhhh yes.
Do moore Gary!! He has a awesome catalog.. out in the fields, cold black night, cold day in hell, still got the blues. And he is one of the best gitarrplayers in the world!
Gary Moore shall never be forgotten. He's a legend.
True 👍🤘
Gary Moore For Life 🙌🇮🇪
Ever!!👏🤘👍 Another one in Irish history!
The "Wild Frontier" version is so much better and the outro solo is like Heaven to my ears.
Gary Moore, one of my all-time guitar heroes. Genius. RIP sir
RIP Great legend
Gary was awesome. One of my favorite guitar players. So good.
In my humble opinion, this the best rock music video ever made.
You mention Nightwish and the Celtic vibe. The instrument you see is the Uilleann pipes as also played by Troy Donockley in Nightwish.
Exactly 👌👍🤘
R. I. P Gary Moore👍👌👋🤘🏽😪
I'm a fan of NW, but I'll have te remind you that this was way before NW even was founded. Gary was something special.
his "Victims of the Future" album is one of my all time favorites. "Devil In Her Heart", "Law of the Jungle", and the title track "Victims of the Future" are epic.

The late great Gary Moore - way better than many of the perennial top 10 guitarists that always get mentioned,and a brilliant vocalist as well
The bagpipes are Uillean Pipes, the Irish bagpipes, played by folk music legend Paddy Moloney (The Chieftains).
Celt heritage 👏🎼🤘👍 like here in Portugal 🇵🇹! Everywhere 🌍
Gary Moore - Empty Rooms live Stockholm 1987!!!! Please! Amazing performance with Eric Singer (of Kiss on drums) & Bob Deisley ( Rainbow/ Ozzy on bass)
Had this on cassette. Great album! As always, fun reaction.
Gary Moore - out in the fileds
Gary Moore era completo, excelente guitarrista e que voz!que talento! Músicas como essa nunca mais, pra mim melhor que anos 80 pra música não tem. Gary Moore lenda! Ele tem muitos fãs brasileiros 🇧🇷
Please do "Out in the fields" by Gary Moore. You will love it!!!
I heard him play this live in Birmingham in 1986.
R.I.P., Gary Moore 😢🤘
The one and only Gary Moore♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Gary Moore wild frontier reaction
Another like before watching. Northern Irish rock may not be plentiful but probably the best per capita in the world.
they are uillean pipes. an irish instroment. (may be spelt wrong )
Yes, it’s spelt instrument. Lol
Which were extremely rare in rock music back then (well, to be fair they still are) - this may even be their first use in that genre.
Now the best-known performer on them is Troy Donockley of Nightwish!
The Celtic rock vibe is a perfect fit for them - I mean, who the heck else has an uilleann piper in the band?
The instrument is called a Uilleann Pipe which use a type of air bag instead of a mouthpiece
Same as Troy plays in Nightwish
Gary Moore/ THE LONER
Great guitar solo.
The great Gary Moore
Awesome
This is the album i liked the most of him, when he shifted from rock to blues i was very sad because I thought 'Still got the blues' was pretty bad (And still do). But much later when i heard a live blues performance of his i understood why he dedicated himself to it because I've never heard a more amazing and expressive blues guitarist in my life. :)
There's a reason that Gary Moore is legendary.
Gary was also a fantastic jazz fusion player, check out Colosseum 2 Intergalactic Strut or Gary Moore What would you rather bee or a wasp
The instrument you are referring to is called uilleann pipes. Irish bagpipe. The air is pumped from the elbow. Basically the song is traditional Irish music rock.
A very good song
Epic guitar solo yeah!!!❤
Only the good die Young, R.I.P. Gary 😉
Nightwish made a more metal cover on this but Gary had an awesome voice.
Eh Empo is a good guitarist but he's not in Garry Moore's league mate. This is heavier than the NW cover version.
There is nobody better than Gary Moore doing this song. Gary Moore was more than just an awesome voice, he was one of the best guitar players in history. Nightwish does not compare. His death still saddens me
a cover should NEVER sound exactly like the original.....otherwise, it's merely a copy.....pay attention, Scott Davey.....you can love Garry's original, but don't insult the bands that do a cover.....rip Garry
If you want a great Thin Lizzy song that really shows off Garry Moore's guitar brilliance Blackrose is a brilliant Celtic rocker.
We want t Moore ! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Amazing, just listened to this song last night for the first time in 20yrs, and here's The Wolf Hunterz reacting to it!
Coincidence, I think not.
Gary Moore..Separate Ways
Live Extended Version
Thnx Guys
Gary Moore - The Loner - i think the best guitarist ever.
Oh man this is fantastic! Very dramatic....what would you call that type of music? It's amazing! I already know about Moore, but I've never seen this vid and I'm mesmerized.
love it Gary and Phil auch gut Du hast lol!
Rection a Gary Moore - empty rooms live please 🤘🏻
You might be referring to the bagpipes, Irish pipes aren't blown into like the Scottish ones, but pumped by holding the bag under the arm.
Check out Empty Rooms live,amazing emotional guitaring.

Rock In Peace Gary.
He also played the blues.
The Bagpipe guy is Paddy Moloney (RIP) one of the most iconic musicians in Ireland and also, one of the leaders of The Chieftains.
Yes, moore Gary, please! On his journey, he also played a couple of short stints in Thin Lizzy. Please check them out, too. Moore and more. Oh, these bad jokes...

I had no idea, I thought this was a Nightwish song.
THe Messiah Will Come Again, Parisienne Walkways, I had A Dream, The Prophet , ........
Could the feel possibly be because they are Irish.....and these folklores have been passed down thru generations of the Irish???
Hence, the little boy bringing the storybook to his father at the fire, to read to him.
la sangre irlandesa de gary era unica amaba eso en sus canciones sonidos irlandeses y si bien su voz no era LO DESTACABLE lucia
Also check out his songs Hiroshima and Really Gonna Rock.
Nothing beats the original, especially if it's from Gary Moore

I was 10 years old when this came out. I still love it. The studio version has a better guitar solo though.
Thin Lizzy Out in the Fields if you haven't done it yet, plz.
That wasn't Lizzy that was a Garry Moore song that Phil guested on.

Uilleann pipes
Ah of course. The official video is the single edit, not too brutally cut but you miss half of the guitar solo and the bridge is hacked down.
Ilian pipes …aka Irish bagpipes. Air control under right arm.
The instalment you hear is a Northumberland pipe
He was Steve Vai before Steve Vai.
Probably already mentioned, the quick inclusion of Paddy from the Chieftains in this video. If not familiar with them, you should be. Celtic band but highly influential to many rock bands. If there was a real music hall of fame, they'd be first ballot inductees.
That's not the original solo from the album version. What version is this?
Gary Moore's take on the Irish ballad "The Long Black Veil". This video doesn't do it proper justice, it's better live.
Check out Nightwish's cover of this song.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thats the Chieftains playing with him
Funny how he used an early led Zeppelin title for this number

What no end guitar solo? Must be one of those annoying single edits. End solo was probably the best part of the track
Belfast born a true son of Ulster 🇬🇧
Yeah.. Nightwish have make a cover of this song
