Guitarist Gary Moore - CD recommendations
« on: 8 Jul 2011, 03:24 am »
Just happened upon Guitarist Gary Moore (thank you Pandora Radio) and was blown away with his musical skill.  He has quite a long list of cd's and I was wondering if anyone could recommend favorites of theirs and mention why they like them.

I'm looking forward to your responses so that I can purchase some Gary Moore CD's

He has a lot I have not heard,but think the following are worth opening the wallet for:

Back On the Streets

We Want Moore

Rockin Every Night

Colosseum II- War Dance

Also check out the videos with Thin Lizzy on youtube.

If you get Back On The Streets,be careful there is compilation album by the same name.My recommendation refers to a (I think) older non compilation release.

Still Got the Blues - my favorite. Guests on this include Albert Collins, Albert King, and Nicky Hopkins.

Not being a fan of the blues or Thin Lizzy, the only albums I'd recommend would be the Colosseum II releases.

War Dance and Electric Savage are great slices is progressive-fusion. His playing on these is brilliant.

Not to mention some jaw dropping drumming by Jon Hiseman.
