How people still slag him off is just plain ridiculous - this man has way more talent in his little finger than most of us have in our whole bodies.

I picked up a 2000 reissue of the 1961 335 block in translucent blue. He's right, the sustain is just mind boggling, and then you plug it in... My 1968 Superlead brings out all of the nuances of the guitar. Hearing Gary get his '59 Les Paul wailing in "I've still got the blues for you" is so sensual, but anyone who says that the guitar doesn't make the player has never played anything as sensitive as these. I use .38 picks and you have to refine your touch to suit the instrument. Then, it comes alive.

Best there’s ever been, just a pleasure and inspiration to watch him make those guitars sing and without all the gadgets that are being used today,so sad he’s gone but he will never be forgotten 🤘🏻

A bit repetitive for an (idolized) god.

One of the great blues guitarists. Versatile, creative, melodic, and pure. Sadly missed.

I love his jazz playing.

5:50 That solo was so fire the smoke alarm literally went off

This video is truly an eternal guitar lesson, which will be for posterity. Technique, feeling, grip, melodic sense… all in one guy! It didn't even get the recognition it deserved. Gary, the uncrowned king.

Even when playing Jazz (which I really didn't know he was so adept in), he permanently seems too have to restrain himself from exploding (...even more). It's not only his speed (and damn, can he play fast...), but I don't think there are many other guitarists with that immense level of pure energy. Maybe Yngwie, but as much as I like him, too, he is not nearly as versatile.

Hello Mr. Frank how are you doing 😊

Such strong message that being melodic is easily the direction to play. Obviously he could blaze whenever he wanted too.

One of the greatest guitar players that ever lived he was so melodic and just on fire all the time it's on the fastest fingers in the West rest in peace Carrie

Hello 👋 Kim. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl

I used to love guys like Malmsteem and Guys for the sake of speed and pyrotechnics. But with time, I love Gary Moore's "shred" more. It's got so much more depth and personality to me; maybe not as technically fast or crazy. But his bends, blues integration, and like phrasing makes his playing so much richer and filled with like more soul or something. When I listen to really talented shredders, all I hear is scale olympics. When I listen to guys like Gary Moore I hear like really nice blues and jazz being played ferociously, not just fast scales. And his control of tone is great(sounds stupid, but guys like Joe Bonamassa show you how important it is to not just ditch a guitar to achieve tones; with simple dial changes and picking pressure, you can get outrageously different sounds from just one guitar; it's a true skill to master ).

Yngwie wasnt for the sake of speed ..he s speed by nature , wanting to be paganini on guitar. He has a stellar vibrato , like Violin , and soulful and slow or Articulate cool phrasing between his fast runs . That most people choose to ignore . His attack on blues was not that far from Gary Moore ....see his version of Redhouse on the budokan 1994 .

metalheadoldschol Yngwie is a mindless guitar machine operator, rather like typing fast, but not a musician, like Moore.

Every note this man played was a solo unto itself

Without a doubt one of the best and most versatile guitarist's EVER. To bad most people in America have no idea who he is. I got to see him live twice on Victims of the Future and Wild Frontier tours, and they are 2 of my favorite concerts ever. A 6 string genius!

Hands down the best guitarist ever I learned more on guitar learning one Gary Moore song than I ever learned from everyone else

Just when I thought my blues chops were getting real good, I watched this! RIP Gary

This demonstrates what awesome talent he had. Such a shame he is no longer with us

What an absolute beast his level is like know other. he plays from his soul not a song book or from copying someone else. What a great man and what an opportunity for me to be a fan from the first album i ever heard him on Corridors of Power 1982 and so on. RIP Gary

I don’t think Gary is underrated just under appreciated

Wow, I had no idea he could play jazz like that! I guess it makes sense, since quite a few of his ballads use jazzy progressions (e.g. Parisienne walkways) so he's obviously dabbled in various styles.

We miss your playing Gary, you put your heart and soul into all the songs you will never be beaten. 😉

Gary was one of the most underrated Guitarists of our time. I was so fortunate to see him live during the Wild Frontier tour. I had no idea how versatile and knowledgeable he was with Jazz. He plays with so much emotion and his phrasing is like high Octane but with feeling. Thanks for sharing this amazing video.

This was fantastic. I’ve just become a fan. Wasn’t wild about some of his well known stuff, so this vid gave me a new appreciation. Love the jazz blues bit. Beautiful stinging vibrato.

Guitarists like Gary here and Alvin Lee should have got waaaaaay more recognition than they got.
