Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Just browsing the news before I went to work, saw this. The Sun reckons he got fucking hammered and choked on his own spew. Fantastic technique, massive ego apparently. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showb...hotel-room.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13621 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Black Rose is one of the best Thin Lizzy albums and a lot of it comes from his guitar playing. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 The song Black Rose is a fantastic piece of rock guitar wizardry, Moore's tone on it is mega. I love the way they get Celtic tunes and incorporate them into a rock style, works as well as when Dick Dale turned a jewish folk song into this: I heard a story about one of Moore's gigs where he was doing 25 minute solos and the other musicians got a bit peeved at his ostentatious playing. Words were exchanged and GM said something along the lines of, "They've paid to see fucking Gary Moore, I'll play as long as I want!" I don't struggle to believe it because I've heard him insult many musicians and their playing in the press, including Scott Gorham from TL. Still, great technique.
