I love Gary Moores playing and sound..I have been on his song Run For Cover for awhile now...Thanks for the help Ben on Out In The Fields.
And I wondered too Ben if perhaps Gary is also doing the hammer on as well?
I think you did a great job of the solo.....btw...luv your channel🤘🏻
@@rontharperit could be… it goes by SO FAST!
Saw Gary Moore with Thin Lizzy early eighties. Opened for Journey and with Gary they stole the show
I'M SO HAPPY THAT SOMEBODY IS TALKING ABOUT GARY MOORE!!!!!!!
Exactly, I am too
Me too!
I remember sitting, noodling in a guitar shop in Brighton, England one rainy Sunday morning. A guy in a rain mack entered a little room that I was in for a browse, turned to me and smiled. I couldn't play another note, in awe of Gary Moore being in the same room as me.
A few months later I found myself in his front room in Hove, fitting a fireplace for him. What a decent bloke he was. Rip Gary.
Wow!!!! Amazing!
Great story. My mate fitted a carpet for him, a few weeks later we met him in a bicycle shop in Brighton. My mouth filled with cotton wool and I couldnt speak. Missed opportunity :(
Was it GAK?
@dmalenko2149 guitars,Amps,keyboards
Yeah, it was GAK. Apparently he used to turn up at open mike nights in the Brighton area, and just get up and jam.
The Prestonville Arms used to be a regular jam night.
Imagine that 😦😦.
Gary could play any style. Truly one of the greatest ever!
Does he djent?
Yes and most everybody that worked with him has said he is/was the most talented guitarist/musician they have ever worked with.
Literally the EVH of blues /rock. So underrated by general public.
EVH was great of course no question, but Moore's solos gave me the goose bumbs (in Dutch we say chicken skin 😅) his solos pierced right through the heart.
Much more melodic though. Love the King EVH though.
EVH is technically great, but his music is boring. GM is a great guitarist and a great composer.
@@sayjustwordstome ouch!
Dude, Gary was a lot heavier than EVH when he wanted to.
I found myself standing in a queue behind Gary Moore in a music shop in Brighton, UK, back in the early 2000's. I stood there trying to think of something not stupid to say while he was served and ended up just staring at the guy. Surreal experience. He must have been living locally at the time, he is buried in Rottingdean, just outside Brighton. Wish I'd at least told him what a hero he was to me.
Yeah I saw him in GAK years back, he must have lived around there. I asked him where I could find a copy of that thing he recorded with Andrew Lloyd Webber. Variations. Had some cracking shred on it. He smiled and said it was probably discontinued.
Yes he lived around Brighton, you guys are lucky to have met him.
He is the reason I play electric guitar but I never got to meet him.
My sister interviewed him a few times, lucky girl, working in radio
My wife wants to go from TN/USA to Ireland. I do too but only to visit Rottingdean and pay my respects.
aw, dude, how could u not say a word!
Corridors of Power should be on everyone’s radar. Great record.
Corridors was my first Gary Moore album. I saw the MTV video for "Always Gonna Love You" (power ballad with a jaw-dropping solo) and immediately bought the cassette.
And the live concert in Stockholm, it is on RUclips, great concert!
Best heavy Strat tone ever to my ears anyway.
Love Murder in the Sky.
Ian Paice on drums certainly didn't hurt either.
To get anywhere near that solo in a day is very impressive 👏🏻
I think there are a lot of players who don't appreciate just how good Gary was. A lot of people know about his beautiful melodic playing, but his legato was insane. I dig the Christmas Vacation reference btw!! 😂😂
Well that’s this generation not mine we all knew how insanity awesome he was.
His picking too
Have you seen the video of him at a festival where he's shredding on a 12 string?
@surfdigby Yes! And his live rendition of "Cold Hearted" at the Pink Pop Festival will have any naysayers enlightened as to just how much Gary played with intensity and emotion,every bit as Stevie did. It's uploaded on here. Check it out. Playing the Fiesta Red 61' Strat with a tone that in immense!
Well said
I saw him play with Thin Lizzy. As well as John Sykes, Snowy White and of course always Scott Gorham.
The dude was a top tier singer, a top tier song writer and a top tier guitarist.
Live at Montreux , The messiah will come again is probably the greatest live prerformance I have ever heard.
I got to see Gary live once. Out of all the gigs i have been to over the years , i will never forget seeing Gary. Tore my head off from start to finish.
Yeah that one is great, I would rate it right after Texas Flood at the El Mocambo by Stevie Ray Vaughan as the best live guitar perfomance ever recorded on film.
I remember seeing him live at his peak. Front row seat about 5 feet away from the guy. The things he was doing were unbelievable. A true guitar legend.
Gary Moore is no joke for sure.
His vibrato is absolutely massive.
To quote an interview by Joe Bonamassa: "Gary Moore, that's some manly, balls to the wall guitar playing. First time, I've watched him live playing a festival in the early 00's and it was like witnessing a thunder storm coming down on you. "
He also said Gary Moore was his proof of concept so since hearing him, he's just been ripping off Gary, doing an aweful job of it making a great living. Say what you like about Joe but he's got a sense of humour.
One of my favorite Gary Moore solo.
Gary was my hero, i still miss him. Dude you nailed that, well done and thank you
I love the 80s hard rock era Gary Moore, I actually prefer it over the later more blues-oriented stuff he did. Songs like Wild Frontier, Out in the fields, Over the hills, etc are all time classics.
Same here.
His Blues stuff is great, no question… but I always loved his hard rock material a bit more !
same with me. i didnt really like anything of his blues-stuff. Great playing, of course, but the songs seemed boring to me. Wild frontier is imho his masterpiece.
Not to mention his playing on Black Rose.
Totally agree.
I can only take the pure bluesy stuff in small doses.
That was an incredible video Ben, thank you. I met and spoke with Gary a number of times when I worked for the Guitarist Magazine. They used to put on performance shows at various venues around London in the 90s which Gary used to come along to when he was in town. I'm friends with Cliff (Gary's brother) and has told me that he used to watch his various bands rehearse. He said that Gary would rehearse like he was playing a show at all times. Gary's solo on "Killer" from Cozy's "Over the Top" album, blew me away.
Gar Moore is an absolute legend!!!! It doesn't get much better than his solo work on the "Live in Stockholm" song Empty Rooms. Mind blowing!
Not enough videos done on the late, great Gary Moore. 'The Loner' is one I used to play at my gigs in the mid 90's, but I was never 100% happy with it. Thanks Uncle Ben for sharing. 🎸❤
Thanks for watching!!! Gary was incredible!
Ben, in a platform full of guitar content you're the best in the business. Your approach to teaching is unparalleled. You've perfectly balanced explanation with technique and humor.
Wow, thanks! I truly appreciate that. Cheers!
Im a proud owner of a guitar he played and reserved to purchase when he came back to England but sadly died on that holiday. And i bought it. Kept the strings and everything. Its a Gibson es-335 pelham blue. its awesome. Gary Moore is legend and very under-appreciated i feel.
His 'wild frontiers' album is his best 100%, all his GOAT tracks are from WF.
AND finally, did you know that Gary Moore was the one who showed Randy Rhoads how to tap. Moore is just such a GOAT.
And then everyone in the music store started clapping
Brilliant story!
not as exciting but i managed to buy two pedals from his collection at an auction. i don’t use them, they just sit proud in a display and are a great conversation piece.
@@studiothree That's awesome!!
@@studiothreeWhat pedals did you buy..?
One of my fave Gary Moore songs and solos.
He was a beast 💚
By the ways these videos, as we observe you working through the process are really valuable - almost as if us mere mortals might have a chance in getting these down right. I have seen many people cheat at this, great to see you giving it the justice/honesty it deserves - cheers Uncle B
Gary pulled that shit off just by shear force of will. All the guys that came after him figured out all the economy picking and finesse, where Gary just dug in and powered through it. Also amazed me that he would do stuff that I would play with 1st and 4th fingers with 1st and 2nd. A lot of his playing in the “blues era” is with 2 fingers. Mind blowing.
Man, his ferocity was unreal. Nothing delicate about it!
That 1st/2nd finger thing he did was pure Django Reinhardt (but in a rock format). He played a ton of jazz and fusion stuff in the 70's with Colosseum 2.
You learn all this and then see Gary playing it on a hardtail guitar, I can't play anywhere near this now thanks to an accident with my left hand and a stroke but it's great to see others appreciating Gary's playing and keeping his memory alive.
Released in 1985.....so 39 years old and still a legendary solo. Good work dude :)
Gary had his own style, no question! Saw him in 86, incredible!
Saw him at Donington Monsters of Rock in 1984. Great memory.
@@trond-oien Me too!! Great memories...👍
100% agree with the general sentiment on here, he is a true guitar great, but what isn't spoken of too much is he could play and sing!! 👍
I saw him in 86 at the Milton Keynes Bowl supporting Marillion.
@@jdfnorton8570 Remember those oversized Marshall stacks? :)
As a fan of this particular track, and as a musician myself, I say you nailed it, To a guitar perfectionist, you obviously were conscious of bits you played slightly differently. But in the big scheme of things, 99% of listeners would have zero clue anyway, the important part being you captured the 'essence' and the joy and musicality of the part, nitpicking over minutiae, is not constructive or even necessary, because you played it extremely well. 🙏🏻😉😊
I knew him over here in Belfast before he became a big star. He played the local clubs as a young man. We all knew he was going places.
Rad. What a career Gary Moore had. Thin Lizzy, metal solo career, blues solo career...one of the baddest and most influential to ever do it. Nice work.
Let’s not forget his fusion stuff in Colosseum .
Uncle Ben fucking rules.❤
I am glad to see a good guitar player as you struggle the same way I did when I learned it. Gary Moore is my favourite guitar player and how he came up with that run it’s just amazing. I know he struggled with it live and I don’t blame him. To learn that run took me forever, and I so recognise your intro with all the frustration. Gary Moore was a real bad ass on guitar.❤ I saw him live in 1987 when he was in his prime, and I was just amazed and blown away by his guitar playing.
I had worked on Out in the Fields 4-5 years ago and finally realized I would never get it right so I did my own pitiful version of it here at home..glad to see you Ben getting it done.. I remember the day he passed I was actually listening to him on RUclips and drinking a beer and one of my friends called me and told me Gary Moore died in his sleep.. it crushed me but at least I can still listen to him and his incredible playing...looks like I am about to fire up one of my Jacksons now so Thank you Ben !
Attempt? That was, in my ears, perfect! Well done, Uncle Ben!
Oh yes ! 👍
Myself would be proud to play this at 70 % speed with Ben‘s accuracy !
00:21 Enjoyed the Christmas Vacation quote 😆
Fantastic video, Ben! Black Rose by Thin Lizzy is by far the toughest Gary-song I’ve played. The irish middle part of the track is so tricky
That's a great shout for the next solo...
Has one of the shortest but most effective, on fire, solo’s in history. Rockin’ Every Night.
Oh my goodness you NAILED it !!
😮Wow! Imagine the sheer talent of someone(Mr.Moore) who came up with this in the first place😳
Amazing cover! Gary was one of the greats, watching him live its as if he plays every note like his life depended on it. Pure passion!
Nobody could express "anger" like Gary could on guitar👈
What sets legends apart, is they express emotions first (on top of having good chops, scales, ears, taste,...) "Persian walkways live" is the song that I've actively listened most, so it has to be best, right? (still got the blues, loner, over the hills... I heard on radio) the long note in the song states just that... Emotions first, there is no other interpretation (just like Santana's Europa).
Someone mentioned learning "Gotthard - Firedance", I'd love to see that, so I second it ❤️
Outstanding work dude. Awesome. Really funny as well man hahah! The Phil Lynott tribute where Gary and Scott did the medley makes all the hairs on my body stand up just thinking about it. He had so much feel to his playing. Man. Such a sad loss to the world.
Giving gary moore some love! Your the best uncle! Uncle ben❤️
Im a big metal head (Mastodon #1) and a huge Gary Moore fan. I think his best solo is in No Reason to Cry which is an old style slow blues song but the way he can get emotions through that guitar solo at the end is phenomenal!
That tip stopping right before a choke point is priceless advice. It's helped me so much since you first gave that advice on your EJ vid. It's the smallest tips that seem to reap the biggest rewards down the line.
Amazing, my favourite solo ever, and Uncle B , happy days!
I was standing at his feet on that tour when the album came out, will never forget, one of the 5 best ever. RIP
Gary Moore once lamented how players in the '80s were "going to school" to learn how to play guitar, adding that he had started playing to get out of school.
I love the opening to End of the World. Gary absolutely ripped that solo a new one.
Saw Gary Moore in about 87 at the NEC in Birmingham with a band called Shy supporting.
Wow. Gary Moore forever.
Great video, sir! Pete 🏴
Dude, Shy is sick!
it's nice to watch you how to figure out and practice a great Solo like this. Especially the fact, that your brain needs its time to get all those things together, is a part of practicing guitarstuff!
Glad you enjoy it! I’m happy to see people liking these videos and the taste of reality I’m hoping to bring. Cheers!
Love this series Ben, you’re onto something!
I’m glad y’all dig them!!!
GM is a virtuoso! Like EVH, he took blues and rock to an advanced, modern (late 70s, early 80s) level. I’ve always liked GM more, and that’s no dig at EVH. Some of his arpeggio runs are picked equivalents of the two hand tapping stuff. GM mastered so many techniques and could switch gears effortlessly. I’ve wasted so much time trying to learn the hard stuff, but, to me, GM is the summit of lead guitar playing. Thank you for giving us this master class!
I forgot to ask: did you consider switching alternate picking and economy picking as needed? I found some stuff favours EP, and GM could switch to either effortlessly.
Been a massive fan of Garys since I was a kid, I remember being heartbroken the day he died and calling a friend to break the news and share our sorrow. So many fantastic solos, the passion in Always Gonna Love You is so cool, Empty Rooms is a classic for a reason and Military Man is melodic mastery. That's just naming a few, but my all time favourite is in the Thin Lizzy song Got To Give It Up, at the end. Song breaks down and then Gary comes in with what I feel are the perfect notes to build up tension in an almost "Achilles Last Stand"-esque climb before hitting flurries of notes that perfectly encapsulates the songs meaning to my ears. The fact that it fades out is still a crime to me.
Thanks for the video Uncle Ben!
I first saw Gary at Birmingham University in 1970 when he was touring the UK with Skid Row. He was absolutely amazing even back then as an 18-19 year old. I was 15 at the time and in absolute awe.
Absolut fantastic solo. A hard nut to crack. To hard for me. I quit so many times. I'm very impressed of all these technical shredders out there but Gary Moore, who can also shred as we can see, is one of the few who can give me goose bumps. My recommendation is the live version of Empty Rooms live in Stockholm 1987 here on RUclips.
Thanks for showing us your struggle. You're an amazing player, and sometimes we Regular guys forget that it's lots of work and not just talent.
I appreciate that!
Man, i love this song. Great choice and solo by Gary
Gary is my favourite guitarist of all time geez I miss him 😢
Saw Gary play 3 times, brilliant & the best. My favorite player always.
Check out one night in Dublin the tribute to Phil Lynott. Black Rose is amazing, It gets a little scrappy in the solo. But it is like 40/50 bpm faster than the studio version
I sure do love Gary Moore’s playing. I got After The War on tape when I was 13 and it changed my guitar playing forever. His pick attack and phrasing were impeccable.
A great, great solo, first heard it when I was about 11
Great breakdown. I never knew Gary Moore was a shredder. I always thought of him as the "Still Got The Blues" more of a Santana/Gilmour-ish slower melody guy. Thanks for the lesson.
Oh yes now my life is complete. Uncle Ben and “Out in the fields” ….perfect. Oh and top job Uncle Ben as always.👍👍🤘🏻
One of my big influences, from Northern Ireland so one of the first players i ever heard! Great job mate!
Moore is the reason I picked up guitar. A lot of people just think of him as a blues player, they've no idea about his rock/metal past. Maybe you could do the Victims of the Future solo? It's tricky and devious.
Had no idea he'd done shred stuff like this, wow.
Dude he was a MONSTER player.
Gary was well ahead of his time when he was in Coloseum (spell check) in the early 70s I think. The music was progressive shred. Makes this lick look simple I’m afraid. Lots of fun though and reminds me of being in high school dropping the needle over and over again on the end of the world intro solo and that was my introduction to that alternate picking shred stuff. His later blues alive and live blues stuff made me weep because it was so beautiful and played live was flawless. Then the occasional jazz runs just sealed it for me. What a player and a true legend. Anyway great job with the dissection and welcome to the Gary we want Moore club.
I just watched "One night in Dublin" (Gary and the other guitarists of Thin Lizzy playin) for the 100000000st time, and now this.... Think I'll enjoy it.
Gary is one of my favourite players ever. He could shred with the best of them, but melodic side of him and the emotion he could convey was the winner for me. So many great tracks, especially with Thin Lizzy and his solo hard rock years.
Cool thing with a lot of respect.
Thank you for reminding us how great Gary was and why we miss him. 🙏👍
Brilliant analysis. One of my favourite solos from Gary. The timing is essential and so easy to get wrong. Gary was undoubtedly the master.
Over the hills and far away & parisienne walkways were also tasty memorable solos gary did. Nicely played uncle ben 👏
Seeing that broken down made me realise how ridiculous it is! You did a great job of getting that up to speed in such a short time 👍
Thanks for a great vid. Followd Gary since I was 17 (now 62). See him live a few times, met him once in my, and latterly his home town, Brighton UK. Tried this solo many times without any success but have an idea this might help me to have one more crack at it. RIP Mr Moore.
I wanna see The Loner by Gary , killer vibrato in that piece . Great video Uncle Ben !😊
Great video Ben! Definitely a great solo among the many Gary Moore played. The whammy bar work is controlled and smooth. Good stuff!
Alt way for the run is start 8th E, then 5th A and run it down as two string groups one position shift per group. When you hit 7th G run down on till you land on G 14 loose the note to get on B. Then two string groups again to the bend. Ohh and start on an up so it's all alt picked all the way. I can't get anywhere near the speed but as an alt picked exercise warm up it's ace 👌
Love Gary, Run for Cover is an amazing record.
Absolutely brilliant, I love Gary Moore's playing , you nailed it.
❤
Love this format man, really fun to go through
Glad to hear that! More to come!
Brilliiant!!! A great guitar teaching moment, thanks a lot Ben!!!
Cheers!
Yes!! That ascending staccato lick took me months to get up to speed. Gary was the master.
Awesome dude! That solo has been my number 1 favorite solo since I first heard it in the 80's. Very well done!
Been waiting years for someone to do this,but to jave Ben do it is massive bonus,my sunday evening is sorted,cheers from Ireland
I saw him live a couple of times in early to mid 80’s… He taught me confidence. I never saw anyone else play with so much immediate power and punch
My favourite solo is the live in 1987 Empty Rooms solo, posted that around 15 years ago myself. Millions and millions of views! #respect
Awesome, Ben! Amazing learning for a single day.
Great job 👍. That run has been bugging me all my guitar playing life. I get around it with a lot more Yng single string stuff but with mad position changes, which even if I nail the solo, it just feels so precarious.
Going to give it another whirl.
You can do it!
National Lampoon's Christmas Vaction reference! Nice!
You know it!
Gary had it all, blues, metal, rock, jazz, but more importantly was his pure emotion , his solos cried!
I really love this series.
You did great Ben! Gary's coordination between the left end right hand was amazing. I cant think of any other player with such an agressive style, and wat about his pitch-perfect bending of the notes? He was a true giant on the guitar!
Great job Ben!
Thanks Jon!!
Nice one, Ben. That ascending riff is a real s.o.b., I never cracked that one :))
I saw Gary play live on just about every tour over the years. He was just amazing to watch, both in his early solo years as well as with the later blues rock.
There are so many licks and solos to explore, such as the solo in Teenage Idol (not a great song but the opening riff in the solo is deceptively tricky and very Gary Moore), and the solo in his version of Shapes Of Things is outrageous.
Check them out if you get time.
Cheers!
Gary became my Fav after Stevie Ray passed. Heard Gary on the radio with "Still got the Blues" and thought "wow Santana has a new album" turned out to be Gary. I had never heard of him. He was a true Wizard.
Well done Ben - awesome as always
I recently had to learn the solo to Moores Walkin' by myself. That took me 4 weeks 🙂and I'm still ropey. Amazing job my friend.
Also, one thing to remember with Gary is that he was left handed.
REALLY?! Did not know that!
Yes. And a ton of licks, phrasing done with only index and middle finger.
He had ridiculously large hands, as well.
but he played guitar right handed
