My mother loved Gary Moore, when she died aged 77 we played Empty Rooms at her funeral and they will be playing it at mine. Gary made that guitar cry, such feeling in his playing. I’m 66 now and he’s still my hero.
I was at that Hammersmith Odeon gig! This was the last encore. I was 21 years old in 1987 and had only been in London a few months from NZ. Me and my now wife couldn’t believe how good he was. Bob Daisley on Bass, Ian Paice on Drums and Neil Carter on Keyboards/guitar/backing vocals. After this song everyone kind of ambled out…no one was going to yell for another song after that. He had just played his heart and soul out! Absolutely love this guy.
U guys in Europe were very lucky to catch him live...we at south east Asia never had the chance .he didn't tour this region....anyway I'm afew years younger than you...born in 68...
I was there too.. just started working in London when my young Irish workmate suggested we go.... thank you Max gir a unforgettable night with this master guitarist 🎸
Mr Moore wasn't just a genius he played supernaturally. the sound of his guitar enters our head, goes down to the heart, runs through our veins and makes us feel goosebumps, his music makes us tears of sadness for not being here anymore. RIP Mr Moore. You're and you'll be allways my hero👏👏👏👏🤟
you're description of gary moore and his music are beautiful and so true grace...music was my first love,and gary moore fillsup a big space in this love.
I talk to young players now and say well he’s no Gary Moore……. and they all say ahhhh who?… Perhaps one of the most underated performers of all time. This man was a monster….. the tone he squeezes out of that goldtop is epic!!!!! R.I.P. GM
When people talk about guitar solos or lead guitar lines being "vocal-like," Gary Moore is probably the first person that comes to my mind. The man was one of the greatest to ever pickup the instrument.
The best blues players Ever no other I remember buying import albums in 70s how could any guitarist ever say no this guy played from his soul I cried when I first heard him a Phenomenon wow love Gary Moore
Its no a obligation (sorry for bad english) im not a músician, but the good music doesnt matter age even if they're guitarrist they must know him. Regardless, we can guide them as they want, because its not the lyric, IT IS THE FEELING WAS PLAYING to know was the Best for everey people!
My idol. What a player, what a sense of melody he had, his playing was stratospheric he really dug deep and wrenched every note out of the guitar, such a pity he didn't look after himself better in later life, what a loss to all his fans, friends and family. Gary you were loved and so admired ❤ by so many, then now and forever Rock in Peace, Legend 🤘🏻
These were the longest 12 minutes of my life. So many emotions came rushing all at once Gary moore is no human, he's a celestial being with super powers that allows objects to interact with humans And this guitar cried like a baby out of the womb.
The only guitarist who could transport his soul to the guitar & make it weep, cry, laugh & love to the core. One man army. No one can fill the vacuum he left behind. We miss you, come back if you can. We are waiting, we are crying.
Yes sir. This is my hero. No word can express how good Gary sound.correct?.....just enjoy the sound. That is Gary is on my personal list of the best guitarist of all time. Just my list..... hehehe...since everyone's list is different.
E impressionante como gary, conseguia trazer tanto sentimento na guitarra e conseguia definir e explicar emoções sem ao menos dizer uma palavra, um grande guitarrista que não e tão citado tendo marcado o blues e o rock de uma maneira unica, descanse em paz Gary moore.
Gary Moore was one of the very very few that could make a guitar truly sing. Hendrix, Gilmour, Santana, etc. His playing will always live on in all of us.
Gary Moore is one of the very few people that could make his instrument have a life of its own. His guitar became a tormented extension of himself which he bared himself for all to see, hear and feel. 🙏🥹♥️😎
@@melro23 Seth didn't say anything in regards to a comparison !! He simply said : Steve Vai once named Gary Moore as his favorite soloist. Reading comprehension has gone out the window since 1990, hope you're alright.
@@shanghunter7697 No. I say it in a good way :) Even Steve Vai is a very good guitarrist, I considere Gary Moore the best of all Because of his passion. I love steve Vai too but Gary Moore is another level :) I know what Steve tried to say, and for that reason he is a really good guitarrist.
@@melro23 Whenever you hear he plays the guitar, Gary Moore was actually singing the song and the melody through his guitar. That is why he is no comparison with any great guitarist in the world.
I'm 47 years old, I grew up listening to this gentleman, thanks to his songs and others too, I love guitars almost since I was born. He is no longer with us but will live on in our hearts. Your songs will live forever. Thank you, Gary, wherever you are. 🙌🙌🙌
I discovered Gary shortly after he sadly passed away. And I`ve come back here so many times in the past decade. To me this performance is the single greatest moment in music history and I can`t wait to show it to my daughter when she gets old enough to understand. :)
This track is a great example of the sheer brilliance & versatility that was Gary's playing - mixes the smoothness of Jazz & Blues with dazzling speed & dexterity from his Heavy Rock/Metal influences...the almost vocalisations & emotions he extracts from his guitar have never been bettered & I'm not sure they will...the man Is A Legend...RiP
Gary says everything he can’t say in words through his guitar, a very private person I feel I know his life through his music. Rip Mr. Moore 🤍 you gifted genius
i was alone at home on 6 februari 2011 when i heard that gary died..i cried and cried.and to this day i get tears in my eyes listening to him..the world lost a great gitarist aswel as a good man.
@ Jan : c'est exactement ce que je voulais dire, en français. Ce morceau génial de Gary Moore parvient à toucher notre âme et également à nous toucher en plein cœur ... Ils sont très peu nombreux à y parvenir.
I come back to this song from time to time, but not often. It is too much of an overwhelming experience, too heartfelt of an emotion. You can feel the cut is deep with this one, and always ends with a tear. Truly the performance of a century, thank u mr. Moore.
@@sotirzvanidjubre4109 I didn't this of Gary..Very sad indeed but he STILL was a wonderful musician Bou. On a cheerier note...HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU WHEN IT COMES! 😆
Gary Moore, Peter Green, and Alvin Lee...all that passion, and emotion pouring forth from just six strings. They were some of the whitest soul brothers on the planet. Thank you!!
Just got into Gary Moore and got to say. I love his style. Each note and each melody is well played, well chosen. It’s not all this mindless shredding. He’s telling a story. He can shred but to me picking the right notes and commuting 100% to them is far more impressive than shredding 1000 notes in a second
Anybody who hasn't heard the 1987 Live from Stockholm version of this song, get it and listen. It is 15 minutes of absolute genius. Gary Moore, The best there ever was, and I've listened to 'em all.
I will have it get that version myself. as it's one of those song's that you can listen to OVER &OVER and OVER AGAIN and not be bored off. It is a pity that his music don't get played that often radio as they dont what the listeners ate missing a master at work.
Becoming lost in this, I suddenly realized I was crying ... a dead man's last tear. Not of sadness, you understand, or dismay. Rather as aware the depth of time gone by ... a hundred thousand generations of which we are each but a fleeting shadow, the mere blink of an owl's eye, a singular stage of transformation, nothing more. Gary Moore knew that.
Gary Moore is one of the GIANTS of the electric guitar. His feel, intuition for the melody and his unbelievable technique and speed were never bettered and probably will never be. ❤️
Gary had the perfect amount of details in every song... it could be effects, swells or volume changes. Vibrato or blazing pentatonics shreds. Very few other players has ever been close to that kind of mastery ,but only gary had it all.
Some guitarists play the instrument..and some play the instrument and put their emotions through it, their feelings through it, Mr. Gary Moore is one of those latter people, and it is heard through every note, every sequence and every passage. R.I.P. Gary, you always were underappreciated on this earth, but not for the people who can really hear.
THIS WAS FOR PHIL LYNOT GARY JUST POURZ HIMSELF INTO THIS SONG! 'THE LONER"!! WOW! IT MOVES U IN WAYS U NEVER THOT AN INSTRUMENTAL COULD EVER DO? BY A TRUE LEGEND! R.I.P. GARY MOORE, 2020 & STILL LISTENING, BUT YOUR STILL SO SADLY MISSED SIR ,XXX
I used to think Hendrix was the best. I mean he was the reason I started playing guitar. After listening to Gary Moore I really do think he takes the number one spot, at least for me.
Had the great fortune to see Gary, first when he was with thin lizzy,then in his ,attercliffe years as a sol,will never forget those days,never! !! What a player,sadly left too early,as did Phil lynnot😢😢😢
they are very different guitarists. you cant really say one is better than the other, unless it comes to technical skill which gary obviously takes the win. They played in very different musical eras.
When the Grand Master aka GARY MOORE produces pieces of Musical Poetry - HE will NEVER BE ALONE !! Because he has the ability to takes US ALL WITH HIM to heaven & beyond! RIP GM
One of the few guitarists i can listen to all day long and never tire of his playing. This song is the only one i want played when i leave this Earth. R.I.P. Gary...gone too soon.
I love this rendition. He knows just what notes are important and plays only those notes while nurturing each note to its full glory. The pauses are timed just long enough for your ears and brain to fully appreciate while still being in perfect company with the rest of the notes. I've lost track of how many times I've listened to this particular upload before I have commented. RIP Gary Moore
Человек струна, вошедшая в душу с первых нот, живущий в ней на протяжении многих лет доставляя наслаждение этим великолепием единения инструмента и человека. Талант не умирает и не уходит, он остается с нами, заняв свой уголок в душах тех, кому он был и есть дорог. Покойся с миром Гэри, ты рядом, твоя звезда не угаснет и будет светить долго. Огромное спасибо за ролик. Счастья Вам.
This guy burned fast and shined bright. He was already playing great guitar solos on vinyl at seventeen. Guitar genius. No one but Jimi can make the guitar cry and sing like Gary. We want Moore.
Literally sending shivers up and down my spine..What a fantastic guitarist Gary was!This track. .just breathtaking! !! WOW!!!He really made his guitar sing!!!!!
I have been playing a long time, and seen the best of the best, no one was better than Gary, you can hear me, Steve Boyleston Jimmy Page Royal Albert Hall Soundchecks. RIP Gary you left your Mark, big shoes to fill. Thank you.
The Messiah Will Come Again, Empty Rooms, Perisienne Walkways, and this one are really awesome pieces nothing short than perfect, but the one that has been giving me chills forever is Still Got The Blues! God bless Gary Moore. Rest in peace.
My favorite guitarist of all time. So sad that millions of people don't know him. I'm glad that my local radio station played "Still got the blues" back in the late 90's and then I re-discovered him, hearing a live version of that song from "Blues Alive" 10 years later. So sad that he passed on before I got a chance to see him live.
Saw him in '77 when he filled in for Brian Robertson on Thin Lizzy's Bad reputation tour. Had no idea of the brilliance I witnessed that evening. Rediscovered him when Still Got the Blues came out. He is one of the greatest of all time.
My mother loved Gary Moore, when she died aged 77 we played Empty Rooms at her funeral and they will be playing it at mine. Gary made that guitar cry, such feeling in his playing. I’m 66 now and he’s still my hero.
Bless you and your mother
yes! Love !
I'm 64 and I've played his music since I was 18,sadly I never saw him live Hope to meet him when I get up there
You hit the nail on the head sadness in a rift who can do that on words needed
Poland here Gary forever💗💗💗🎸

I was at that Hammersmith Odeon gig! This was the last encore. I was 21 years old in 1987 and had only been in London a few months from NZ. Me and my now wife couldn’t believe how good he was.

Great master. Top music. He is more talented than almost 90% of modern musicians . Monster of the guitar
I dont mind getting older , except for having to watch all my heros dissappear one by one . this man was a great loss . rock on Mr Moore .

Ain't that the fn truth!
You always have his Music,, his legacy to us all.
yes man, my English is bad, but i understand what you mean
I know what you mean. I had my moment when Chris Squire died RIP.

Yes indeed. You´re right. He was ignored by the press.
You are a wise man, he was the King.
Spanish Guitar, the loner, crying in the shadows, empty rooms, still got the blues...plus many more. Thank you Gary. Forever

Exactly. It's true freind.
Not the intro.
Only garry moore could break your heart and put it back together again.

😢😊
Some songs don't need lyrics to express themselves, and this is one of them...
Most good guitarists are dragged down by lyrics, I find. Nothing is more expressive than ripping a solo straight from the soul.
I have not listened to Gary in ten years or so ,I almost forgot how good he was ,not too many guitar players give me goose bumps.
I like it
Wow.
An instrumental doesn't need words to express itself.
You must be a genius.
70 years.old and still.listening to all of the greatest guitar players born. Gary Moore makes that guitar cry .

The Moore I listen to Gary More the more I actually think he has been the most amazing guitarist of all time. Actually. Even dare I say Dave Gilmour.
To the person who is in charge of coding the time of these ads: you have done a great job at making people hate you.
Makes the guitar a story like no one else, what a legend..
The most under rated guitarist of all time
nobody underates Gary Moore, everybody recognises him
One of the few guitarists i can listen to all day long and never tire of his playing. This song is the only one i want played when i leave this Earth. R.I.P. Gary...gone too soon.
I love this rendition. He knows just what notes are important and plays only those notes while nurturing each note to its full glory. The pauses are timed just long enough for your ears and brain to fully appreciate while still being in perfect company with the rest of the notes. I've lost track of how many times I've listened to this particular upload before I have commented. RIP Gary Moore
Today is 03.10.2020 and I'm still listening to you!...Years after we have lost you. Rest in peace Gary! You left something for us.
An amazing guitarist RIP Gary
If perfection truly exists - then it's right here with this performance.
Человек струна, вошедшая в душу с первых нот, живущий в ней на протяжении многих лет доставляя наслаждение этим великолепием единения инструмента и человека. Талант не умирает и не уходит, он остается с нами, заняв свой уголок в душах тех, кому он был и есть дорог. Покойся с миром Гэри, ты рядом, твоя звезда не угаснет и будет светить долго. Огромное спасибо за ролик. Счастья Вам.
This guy burned fast and shined bright. He was already playing great guitar solos on vinyl at seventeen. Guitar genius. No one but Jimi can make the guitar cry and sing like Gary. We want Moore.
Rory can
Gary Moore didn't just play the guitar, he was in a constant battle with the guitar. The sound isn't a war, the sound is the pain caused by that war.
I think I wasn't a battle. It was sex. Some times intense, some times hard core with dirty fingers.
Literally sending shivers up and down my spine..What a fantastic guitarist Gary was!This track. .just breathtaking! !! WOW!!!He really made his guitar sing!!!!!
It was the best 12 minutes 28 seconds I've ever spent with my eyes closed.
I have been playing a long time, and seen the best of the best, no one was better than Gary, you can hear me, Steve Boyleston Jimmy Page Royal Albert Hall Soundchecks. RIP Gary you left your Mark, big shoes to fill. Thank you.
The best version of The Loner! can't believe he's gone
rest in peace man! your music lives on!
The Messiah Will Come Again, Empty Rooms, Perisienne Walkways, and this one are really awesome pieces nothing short than perfect, but the one that has been giving me chills forever is Still Got The Blues! God bless Gary Moore. Rest in peace.
What bout Military man or Empty Rooms?
@@saigonKT Empty rooms I mentioned :-). To be honest, I love all his songs anyway.
What an absolutely enchanting piece of art, easily one of the greatest tunes ever played since humans walked this earth.
Gary Moore always present in our hearts!
R.I.P... The music has an empty place where you used to be...
Well put.
He will never lose the blues
The best of the best the soul guitarist of the Earth ever lived
My favorite guitarist of all time. So sad that millions of people don't know him. I'm glad that my local radio station played "Still got the blues" back in the late 90's and then I re-discovered him, hearing a live version of that song from "Blues Alive" 10 years later. So sad that he passed on before I got a chance to see him live.
same for me
gary was from other galaxy,he is the 'king'
Don't forget Jimi !!
The most technical and touching guitar lines I’ve heard over my fifty five years
I'm only sorry I never got to see him live. He was phenomenal!!!!!!!
I went to the Milton Keynes Bowl festival in 1986 solely because he was there.
Im sad I never saw him live. He died on my birthday. Huge loss to me.😥
What a dream to see Gary live !
Saw him in '77 when he filled in for Brian Robertson on Thin Lizzy's Bad reputation tour. Had no idea of the brilliance I witnessed that evening. Rediscovered him when Still Got the Blues came out. He is one of the greatest of all time.
