Tom 14002 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 It's bound to have been drink related. Anyway - his guitar technique was amazing, This was largely because he was left handed playing a right handed guitar. So he had a great strength for vibrato etc and found his sound quite easily. Despite being out of popular music for 20-30 years he is well known and loved in guitar circles and even recently sold a lot of seats. Listen to the vibrato on this - He influenced me quite a lot when I was 16/17 because I had never heard a guitarist so precise whilst playing blues orientated music, lets face it Page was scrappy. Moore's playing was effortless and he got the guitar to do exactly what he wanted. I wouldn't call it good blues music but you would listen to Gary Moore in appreciation of his technical ability rather than composition. Another example - although his vibrato is so extreme he's often drifting out of key! Anyway RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonGoodwyn 1 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Lizzy are one of my favourite bands, and his solo stuff was great too. Fantastic guitarist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonamental 0 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 How? Bonamental browsing. Moore hated Bonamassa. Yeah, heard about that, but never really seen/read it or whatever. There do seem to be a few around who like to try and chip away at Joey B, never really understood it to be honest, never got the impression from seeing him live/videos/interviews etc that hes anything but the humble guy he appears to be. But he doesn't seem to bear any grudges: "What a horrible way to start today. I was just told that my friend and guitar hero Gary Moore has died. I would not be playing music if it wasn't for the playing and support of Gary. I only had the opportunity to see him in person twice but he was always extremely nice and offered some very helpful advice. This is a sad day,a very very sad day." Anyway, besides the point. A great guitarist gone. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14002 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I've met Joe twice and he's a nice guy but also very, very professional so it's no shock to see him say something nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonraider 0 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Oh no more sad news today. What a shame, he was so young. It doesnt seem clear how he died yet either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well colour me jealous. But yeah, I know what you mean. Do feel slightly like since he's had a bit more exposure and been in BCC he's started to lighten up a bit though. Maybe just a bit more relaxed with the whole thing. Anyway, thread derail over. Love his version of: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
