You and me bro. Damn. 3.24- Blows my mind every time. "i couldn´t do that before"..been GM fan for 40 years + and i can say..yeah you did man, all the time. 😂
This man was the complete guitarist - technique, emotion, intensity, melodic sensibility - all in one package. How people still slag him off is just plain ridiculous - this man has way more talent in his little finger than most of us have in our whole bodies. RIP Gary, one of the greatest guitar players to have ever lived.
agree man, actually we've forgotten the real sensibility and feeling to play guitar and many unknown ways to express it to the nature around us, I'm so excited to train and practice blues more than I was trainning before know him
I was driving when I first heard "Stll Got The Blues". For the sake of public safety I had to pull over and wipe the tears from my eyes. Gary Moore was the complete package: monstrous technique guided by pure unadulterated feeling. A true legend.
@@DeadSensei8269 distortion is as common as it gets, reverb is as common as it gets, wah and delay are the only 2 things you mentioned that really counts as effects. But like you said everyone uses them. So nothing special or out of the ordinary about any of them, its all very basic and common stuff.
@@DeadSensei8269not distortion in fact overdrives in his blues era if I'm not wrong, could see tube screamers and bad monkey pedals alongside a fuzzfaces with his strat tributes
I bumped into Gary a few times as we lived fairly close and he was a lovely, warm & genuine human being. He also happened to be a great guitar player too! R. I. P. Gary.
Lived in belfast for 4yrs and learnt about his passing when i moved, gary inspired me to pick up the guitar though ill never be able to play close to his level, his inspiration will forever be cherished..RIP Sr Gary Moore 😢😢🇧🇳
There's no one else whose guitar playing has the feel, ability and balls of Gary Moore. Played guitar all my life and I don't know why but there's just something about his playing, I always find myself trying to emulate him. One of the GOATs truly great guitarist and massively underrated. RIP big man
Gary was actually left-handed but played right-handed just like Wilko Johnson and Michael Angelo Batio (a bit of useless info) he truly was a savage player and sadly missed, I can understand you trying to emulate his style but you have to remember as players we all have our own style, tone and sound and we all seem to end up being the players we're supposed to be 😎 you mentioned Gary and SRV you forgot the other GOAT that was taken too soon....Rory Gallagher I reckon Gary and Rory were probably the two best players Ireland ever produced....may their gods be good to them, peace and love to you Brother Man ✌️❤️🇮🇪😎
@@DocRockBaby Didn't know he was left handed, Knopfler is also, not a coincidence they both have the touch and emotion in a note that Clapton/Slash etc don't have. Also play lead using their thumb and little finger with the left hand, because it's the dominant hand I suppose, it's more natural.
At least you know him now. I went to the Marrillion Milton Keynes ´Garden Party´ in 1986 just to see him. I could not have given a fuk about the rest of them. All I wanted to see was Gary.
@@trentmason009 No he wasn't. Jimi will always the number one. Jimi had it all, never repeated himself and was an incredible improvisor and songwriter and played the deepest blues and he was funky and reinvented himself constantly. He had music flowing out of him like no one before or since. The Moore's and SRV's may have been a bit faster and cleaner but the were repetitive and far less creative and not nearly as good at the most important aspect, namely songwriting.
@@fredriksvard2603 There has always been super fast and technical players but faster and more technical doesn't equal better. 80 years ago, Barrios was shredding stuff that the kids of today couldn't do. th-cam.com/video/sUSknJSDiME/w-d-xo.html Normally that song is played a little slower but because of the wax recording technology of the time, he had to up the tempo a little. Today kids would thing who is playing the bass part and who is playing the lead. Lightweights...
@@Swampster70 Also why even look to blues or even metal for virtuosos, pretty arrogant to think some selftaught kids are gonna leapfrog classically trained world class players. It's not what i look for in rock and metal, the whole neoclassical thing is pure cringe to me. Hendrix and the rest of his kind are massively talented in various ways but let's not pretend for a second they're technical players.
Huge fan of your tutorials. Just got me a nice 07' R9 8.5lb killer flame... madagascar board thing is magic. One of the first things I did was go to you're channel to learn something new just for the hell of it.
Gary Moore. A true guitar player. He was so pure. One the best guitar players of all time. He could make you feel the blues!! WOW!! GUITAR PLAYING @ it’s BEST RIP.. GARY.
You can't fake pure talent. This guy was brilliant, like srv & rory Gallagher. Ppl always so concerned about tone by using fx etc, those guys just plugged in, turned up the tone/volume pots & let their talent talk.
Because things need to move forward. There's only so much you can do with these licks and a LP into a marshall/vox. Guitar lost a lot of relevance but if it wasn't for innovators it'd be as dead as the lute.
@@fredriksvard2603 That's irrelevant. Playing the same licks is enough to kill any style, on any guitar or amp. You can be innovative on a gibson straight through a marshall in 2023, and it would probably sound better than half the guitar recordings today which all use digital software to emulate it. I'd do anything to hear an unreleased album from led zeppelin using the same gibson+marshall combo.
@@jayyy1041 It's relevant. You can't sound like Berried Alive, Henson or Meshuggah through a 6 string Gibson straight into a Marshall. You may not like these new styles personally but the point stands - if guitar stagnates it won't draw new generations in. Right now it's somewhat relevant in pop culture as it's used by artists like Sheeran and Swift, and by prog/tech/death/core bands doing the club gig circuit.
Yh, I agree. As players, we would all love to play blues licks like Gary did, or Clapton etc.....but audiences may not love hearing only that....because we've all heard it a million times. Much as I love hearing him play this, or billy gibbons jamming just him and an amp.....I'm glad that's not all there is. I'm glad there's polyphia trying something different, something new. If blues goes the same way as trad jazz and its just old folk digging it, I'm fine with that too. You can't really force anyone to like or appreciate something. I'm sure we all remember music class at school....
I agree. I enjoy listening to Gary even without a band, just playing alone. I enjoy listening to Gary play the electric guitar with the volume turned off. Electric guitar acoustically played, Gary still sounds great.
Thumbs up for those who know Gary was so under rated and looked over compared to his peers back in the day. I always thought Gary was a monster player and so over looked and under appreciated.
Never ceases to stump me how often I see "underrated" and "overlooked" used to describe a number of clearly top-level players...pop media exposure means absolutely zero regarding how good of a musician they are. Players like Gary are/were monsters, and it's never been a secret...
I’m not religious but he’s another artist in my God played through him list. I think the blues label did a bit to dampen his fire. If I was putting a studio session on, I’d easily call Gary in my first five calls
Felt so sad when Gary died as I'm a huge fan and collector of his music he may be gone but the Master will always live on in his music for all of us to enjoy who loved him. God Bless You Gary And Thankyou !
Keep coming back to this 9 min chill session with Gary Moore, maybe you do too? Wish this guy could have been around a little longer. Really unique player and incredible performer, zero time wasted as he started so early on and just played his way through life, truly amazing.
I’m a lifelong Gary fan, since the mid 70s. I don’t think he was ever underrated. Maybe he didn’t get the commercial or international success that he deserved, but he certainly wasn’t underrated. Just read the influences of most rock and blues rock musicians and he’s usually near the top of the list. ✌️🎸
No one could touch Gary Moore!! Tone, feel, technique, dynamics, musicality... It's all there! Not to mention a great songwriter and a decent singer too!
I check back on this video from time to time. One, so I don’t forget how incredible he was. And two, for inspiration. What emotion and attack in his playing...no matter the style.
Best there’s ever been, just a pleasure and inspiration to watch him make those guitars sing and without all the gadgets that are being used today,so sad he’s gone but he will never be forgotten 🤘🏻
Jimi Hendrix was asked how does it feel to be the best guitar player in the world? Hendrix replied," I don't know You'd have to ask Gary moore. wow could do Jazzy too Blues 😂💙🙏. heavy / melody tone baby Jesus im😢a believer sound definitely reminds me Hendrix his advantage is that he was great Song writer an Singer as well.
This video is truly an eternal guitar lesson, which will be for posterity. Technique, feeling, grip, melodic sense… all in one guy! It didn't even get the recognition it deserved. Gary, the uncrowned king.
This was fantastic. I’ve just become a fan. Wasn’t wild about some of his well known stuff, so this vid gave me a new appreciation. Love the jazz blues bit. Beautiful stinging vibrato.
I was teaching in Korea, and went out for a beer one night. The club was playing a Gary Moore album on their house PA and that was the first time I heard Gary Moore. "Still Got The Blues For You" just floored me. I later got to see him in Pittsburgh, standing room only, and I don't think I moved from my spot the entire time he played. Just amazing.
Gary was one of the most underrated Guitarists of our time. I was so fortunate to see him live during the Wild Frontier tour. I had no idea how versatile and knowledgeable he was with Jazz. He plays with so much emotion and his phrasing is like high Octane but with feeling. Thanks for sharing this amazing video.
Without a doubt one of the best and most versatile guitarist's EVER. To bad most people in America have no idea who he is. I got to see him live twice on Victims of the Future and Wild Frontier tours, and they are 2 of my favorite concerts ever. A 6 string genius!
My personal favorite guitarist ever. He was given the ultimate gift of the guitar. Dynamics, power, control, and anything else that would describe the ultimate greatness. RIP Gary.. you live in our hearts
@@raefpickens1154 I saw Stevie twice, Gary and Rory once each..back in day. I went to record signing for texas flood and took a neck for a parts caster which I was building. he was stoked to sign it..such a gentleman .. he wrote "see you soon" and signed it, thinking we might bump into each other at his gig the next night...didn't link up. I stupidly put floyd rose trem on it..sold it few years later for $400..a life time ago
steve flynn Thats amazing wish I woulda had the chance to watch him play in person let alone meet him but I’m fortunate to have discovered him at all thank you for the story ✌🏻
He's not an Irish hero, they never talk about him here, I never hear his music on Irish radio or TV except with Lizzy but thats ALL about Phillo and not about Gary, ...and he is WAY down the list of great Irish musicians. You want to hear an Irish guitar legend? Ask your dad about Rory Gallagher.
@@johnc3403 Im Irish and a life long fan of Rory Gallagher, i regard Rory, Gary and Phil and everyone else from respective bands as legends equally! no need for shite radio or lists!
This guy was the most complete guitarist in the world when he was alive, among know musicians obviously because there are always hidden gems in basements we'll never hear about.
One of the greatest guitar players that ever lived he was so melodic and just on fire all the time it's on the fastest fingers in the West rest in peace Carrie
Hello 👋 Kim. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
What an absolute beast his level is like know other. he plays from his soul not a song book or from copying someone else. What a great man and what an opportunity for me to be a fan from the first album i ever heard him on Corridors of Power 1982 and so on. RIP Gary
It's really a shame. That I can pick Hendrix as # 1 without question - if Page and Clapton say so, whom am I to disagree - , Page, Beck, Clapton tied for # 2, Gilmour, Kath, and Blackmore tied for # 3, and at least 20 tied for # 4 (King, Hopkins, Robert Johnson, Van Halen, and on and on) . I've seen in concert all of them except for Hendrix and Johnson. And yet, I've never heard of this guy.
Oh, and Al DiMeiola, if you can stand to listen to him for two hours, he may have been as talented as anybody. In any case, there have never been four more talented musicians on a single stage than "Return to Forever." And Townshend is somewhat underated. He should be in my top 3.
I used to love guys like Malmsteem and Guys for the sake of speed and pyrotechnics. But with time, I love Gary Moore's "shred" more. It's got so much more depth and personality to me; maybe not as technically fast or crazy. But his bends, blues integration, and like phrasing makes his playing so much richer and filled with like more soul or something. When I listen to really talented shredders, all I hear is scale olympics. When I listen to guys like Gary Moore I hear like really nice blues and jazz being played ferociously, not just fast scales. And his control of tone is great(sounds stupid, but guys like Joe Bonamassa show you how important it is to not just ditch a guitar to achieve tones; with simple dial changes and picking pressure, you can get outrageously different sounds from just one guitar; it's a true skill to master ).
Yngwie wasnt for the sake of speed ..he s speed by nature , wanting to be paganini on guitar. He has a stellar vibrato , like Violin , and soulful and slow or Articulate cool phrasing between his fast runs . That most people choose to ignore . His attack on blues was not that far from Gary Moore ....see his version of Redhouse on the budokan 1994 .
metalheadoldschol agree. Somehow people feel now entitled to diss Yngwie Malmsteen, one of the most ever influential guitarist. A guy true to himself and playing always with passion whatever the trends and the attendance size.
His fingers look like machines!!! Omg he made it look so effortless. He wows me everytime. I'm just surprised he never got as much attention as he definitely deserves!!!
I've watched this video many times. Each time I hear new things. There many really great guitarists out there. But, Gary didn't just play guitar. It was an extension of his heart and soul. His fingers were just the means of pouring out feel. One of my favorite things about this "interview" is that he says little with his voice. His hands, heart and soul do all of the talking. RIP Gary.
I love it how he jams with himself. That is one of my favorite things to do because it really makes you focus on the chord changes in your lead phrasing since you dont have anything underlying.
This is like the 40th time I’ve watched this over the years lol
You and me bro. Damn. 3.24- Blows my mind every time.

Gary Moore had the best vibrato ive ever seen. His ability to sustain a note is incredible.
Not as good as claptons
Think defo a better all round player than what Clapton is but Clapton’s vibrato is the best there is
BB King.. Just sayin'.....
Will give u that one
@@gregmccormack7562 I'd say that Slowhand learned vibrato from BB King...
His vibrato, phrasing and legato are outstanding
I agree, to me his vibrato is insane, I've been playing for 10 years and can't get anything like the vibrato he gets. Rip Gary Moore.. Legend.
Picking ain't bad either.
Plus his songs and his tastefulness.
Of course they are, he was the greatest!!!!
daniel smith it’s cause he’s a lefty playing right handed guitar. One had more control with the left like that

Are you being truthful?

with Lucy?

with medication too, ha ha

This one video just sums it all up for me.
Down to earth, no ego just plain bloody brilliant.
A legend sadly missed
Hands down the best guitarist ever I learned more on guitar learning one Gary Moore song than I ever learned from everyone else
RIP Maestro! Loved his playing, his voice and sense of humor. They don't make 'em like that any more.
God bless you GM
Maestro!!! In 2019 you still have the blues
I love his jazz playing.
He will and always be my number one guitar player miss you Gary
The jazz playing alone is fantastic
Gary's guitar playing was so smoking hot the fire alarm went off...
+STRATMAN firdaus the fire alarm exploded soon after and shrapnel went everywhere!
Jeezus, but this man was---is---a great guitar player!
+STRATMAN firdaus i dont think thats possible?
+STRATMAN firdaus Hahahahaha ... Excellent comment.
No it's not possible but it's a great concept
A true master, he makes this lokk SO easy, a great treat to see his mastery again, bless you Gary
This was fantastic. I’ve just become a fan. Wasn’t wild about some of his well known stuff, so this vid gave me a new appreciation. Love the jazz blues bit. Beautiful stinging vibrato.
Dang, now this is something special. He sounds soo good!!!!
I was teaching in Korea, and went out for a beer one night. The club was playing a Gary Moore album on their house PA and that was the first time I heard Gary Moore. "Still Got The Blues For You" just floored me. I later got to see him in Pittsburgh, standing room only, and I don't think I moved from my spot the entire time he played. Just amazing.
Gary was one of the most underrated Guitarists of our time. I was so fortunate to see him live during the Wild Frontier tour. I had no idea how versatile and knowledgeable he was with Jazz. He plays with so much emotion and his phrasing is like high Octane but with feeling. Thanks for sharing this amazing video.
You must be a kid if you think he was underrated.
Without a doubt one of the best and most versatile guitarist's EVER. To bad most people in America have no idea who he is. I got to see him live twice on Victims of the Future and Wild Frontier tours, and they are 2 of my favorite concerts ever. A 6 string genius!
This demonstrates what awesome talent he had. Such a shame he is no longer with us
Thank God I got to see this man when he was alive. An amazing without compare musician. The word incomparable is the definition of Gary Moore.
My personal favorite guitarist ever. He was given the ultimate gift of the guitar. Dynamics, power, control, and anything else that would describe the ultimate greatness. RIP Gary.. you live in our hearts
I don’t even think we saw the best of Gary, as he just kept getting better with age and experience..sure miss him and Rory
We did but I we coulda seen Stevie Ray to he was fairly young and also loved rorys bad penny that’s my Jam at the moment
Rory was never a good as Gary
@@raefpickens1154 I saw Stevie twice, Gary and Rory once each..back in day. I went to record signing for texas flood and took a neck for a parts caster which I was building. he was stoked to sign it..such a gentleman .. he wrote "see you soon" and signed it, thinking we might bump into each other at his gig the next night...didn't link up. I stupidly put floyd rose trem on it..sold it few years later for $400..a life time ago
steve flynn Thats amazing wish I woulda had the chance to watch him play in person let alone meet him but I’m fortunate to have discovered him at all thank you for the story ✌🏻
A True Irish Hero that will never be forgotten.
He's not an Irish hero, they never talk about him here, I never hear his music on Irish radio or TV except with Lizzy but thats ALL about Phillo and not about Gary, ...and he is WAY down the list of great Irish musicians. You want to hear an Irish guitar legend? Ask your dad about Rory Gallagher.
@@johnc3403 Im Irish and a life long fan of Rory Gallagher, i regard Rory, Gary and Phil and everyone else from respective bands as legends equally! no need for shite radio or lists!
This guy was the most complete guitarist in the world when he was alive, among know musicians obviously because there are always hidden gems in basements we'll never hear about.
We miss your playing Gary, you put your heart and soul into all the songs you will never be beaten. 😉
One of THE most underrated guitar players to have played. PERIOD.
Wtf are you smoking? Wdym underrated
A true Master of the instrument. 💞💞💞
One of the greatest guitar players that ever lived he was so melodic and just on fire all the time it's on the fastest fingers in the West rest in peace Carrie
Hello 👋 Kim. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Love it when gary set off the fire alarm noise!!! great player one of my favorites.
Such an amazing guitarist and genuine human being! RIP Gary!
A true legend!!!thank you Gary for your amazing music that will live forever!!
What an absolute beast his level is like know other. he plays from his soul not a song book or from copying someone else.
What a great man and what an opportunity for me to be a fan from the first album i ever heard him on Corridors of Power 1982 and so on.
RIP Gary
It makes no sense whatsoever that when people talk about the greatest guitarists they never bring up Gary Moore , and he could play everything.
Gary is the only one worthy of such a title and Jimi would agree
Wasnt the pretty boy and wouldn't play their game from what I can gather ?
Oh no, ALL guitarists know that and really respect him :) cheers!
It's really a shame. That I can pick Hendrix as # 1 without question - if Page and Clapton say so, whom am I to disagree - , Page, Beck, Clapton tied for # 2, Gilmour, Kath, and Blackmore tied for # 3, and at least 20 tied for # 4 (King, Hopkins, Robert Johnson, Van Halen, and on and on) . I've seen in concert all of them except for Hendrix and Johnson.
And yet, I've never heard of this guy.
Oh, and Al DiMeiola, if you can stand to listen to him for two hours, he may have been as talented as anybody. In any case, there have never been four more talented musicians on a single stage than "Return to Forever."
And Townshend is somewhat underated. He should be in my top 3.
I just love watching the way Gary’s fingers move he was so gifted.
Watched this a thousand times. Never tire of it.
This man sure was something special to guitar players everywhere and still is. Rip Gary.
Such strong message that being melodic is easily the direction to play. Obviously he could blaze whenever he wanted too.
A GREAT amongst the greats. Surely one of best ever.
I can watch this all day long...RIP Gary, often imitated but never duplicated.🤘
Gary was one of my first introductions to guitar and rock music at 7 maby 8 and still makes my jaw drop watching him play at 39
Gary Moore - amazing musician, his performing is just brilliant... It's cure for mind and soul 🎸
Only Gary could set off the fire alarm with those hot licks!!
I used to love guys like Malmsteem and Guys for the sake of speed and pyrotechnics. But with time, I love Gary Moore's "shred" more. It's got so much more depth and personality to me; maybe not as technically fast or crazy. But his bends, blues integration, and like phrasing makes his playing so much richer and filled with like more soul or something. When I listen to really talented shredders, all I hear is scale olympics. When I listen to guys like Gary Moore I hear like really nice blues and jazz being played ferociously, not just fast scales.
And his control of tone is great(sounds stupid, but guys like Joe Bonamassa show you how important it is to not just ditch a guitar to achieve tones; with simple dial changes and picking pressure, you can get outrageously different sounds from just one guitar; it's a true skill to master ).
Yngwie wasnt for the sake of speed ..he s speed by nature , wanting to be paganini on guitar.
He has a stellar vibrato , like Violin , and soulful and slow or Articulate cool phrasing between his fast runs . That most people choose to ignore .
His attack on blues was not that far from Gary Moore ....see his version of Redhouse on the budokan 1994 .
@@Nissardpertugiu You're right. He has an old school control on his shredding with his right hand
metalheadoldschol agree. Somehow people feel now entitled to diss Yngwie Malmsteen, one of the most ever influential guitarist. A guy true to himself and playing always with passion whatever the trends and the attendance size.
Those others you mentioned may be technically great, but Gary’s playing moves me emotionally.
metalheadoldschol Yngwie is a mindless guitar machine operator, rather like typing fast, but not a musician, like Moore.
That "Fire Alarm Blues" is stunning! What a clean yet ferocious and blistering attack!🤘
His fingers look like machines!!! Omg he made it look so effortless. He wows me everytime. I'm just surprised he never got as much attention as he definitely deserves!!!
Amazing jazz playing by Gary. RIP.
So Sad, he left us to soon.R.I.P
great
great
great
I've watched this video many times. Each time I hear new things. There many really great guitarists out there. But, Gary didn't just play guitar. It was an extension of his heart and soul. His fingers were just the means of pouring out feel. One of my favorite things about this "interview" is that he says little with his voice. His hands, heart and soul do all of the talking. RIP Gary.
I love it how he jams with himself. That is one of my favorite things to do because it really makes you focus on the chord changes in your lead phrasing since you dont have anything underlying.
I remember listening him live, one of the coolest guys to play.
Damn when he starts playing jazz.....
I know right! His phrasing is so awesome, and I don't even play jazz but that was incredible.
That's just pure heaven....
never would've thought he could pull off some mad jazz improv
