.......in 2011, we Gary Moore fans woke up to the awful news that this brilliant guitarist had died in his sleep while on holiday in Spain. He was just 58 but had apparently developed a drinking problems over the last 2 years of his life. No doubt a factor in the heart attack he suffered.
Throughout the day, and intermittently, i will be posting some of my favourite Gary Moore music - from his solo career, his association with Thin Lizzy and his collaborations with other artists.
I know there are a few Gary Moore fans out there in AB land and i invite you to feel free to post your own favs. Bearing in mind that i may well duplicate those posts later in the day.
This was his signature tune and i have chosen this particular video (instead of the one with Phil Lynott) as it is a live version. Plenty of time for Phil to make an appearance - or two.
I still keep watching The Loner at the moment. Just amazing. Some, like knopffler, are good, but not great, and easy to copy. Some, like these, are a different level.
I opened this thread at 13;15, some 7 hours ago.. It's been fun, but it's also been a tad tiring and certainly time consuming. Thanks to all who have taken part and have posted their Gary Moore songs.
I do believe this is a fitting way to end my participation in tis tribute thread;
