The look on Brad's face during that solo tells you EVERYTHING about this song❗

Guitar is the driving force behind MOST blues music. Gary was a guitar God. If you ever watch him play live, he plays many with his 1st and 2nd finger. he can do more with 2 fingers than most with 5. Rest in peace to a legend.

@@robertlavorna2968 That's not being ignorant, that's unknowing. Knowing that guitar is very crucial and essential to blues does seem common knowledge, but not important knowledge that you need in your life. Also, not everyone has the same interests in life, and sometimes you don't pick on something that is very common knowledge, and clearly Brad doesn't have any strong interest in music more than just enjoying it, and he's definitely not alone in the world. I even think some people watching reactions could be interested in seeing a person go from no knowledge to learn about things. But all in all, how can you get angry at someone not knowing something?

Guys, you just listened to one of the true all-time great guitarists of rock and blues music. The live version of this track is just off the chart too. God rest his dear soul.

Gary Moore was a guitar god. You missed an opportunity here though, the live version of this (just search, it's the one with the most viewed, from some time in the 90s) is a masterpiece. Know for making the guitar cry.

Blues music is pretty much based on the guitar, and the harmonica. Many of the greatest guitarist have a deep blues basis in their playing. Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Alvin Lee, Roy Buchanan, Robin Trower, Joe Perry, Angus Young, Robert Johnson and Gary Moore are all blues men at heart.

He shredded that guitar solo blues style (no song book) and he did not miss one beat when he got back on track at the end. Mind blown 🤯

His guitar was CRYING... the blues is IT for me! I'm 62 years old, and I've been listening to blues artists since I was a little girl. Duane Allman's "Please Be With Me" is one of the finest guitar and vocal pieces you'll ever hear...."I sit here lying in my bed, wondering what it was I said that made me change so suddenly, from looking out to being free. And of all the better things I've heard, loving you has made the words and all the rest seem so absurd, but in the end it all comes out, I'm sure. So won't you please read my signs, be a gypsy. And tell me what it is I find deep within me. And because you can't read my mind, please be with me..." Stevie Ray Vaughan's "Life Without You" is another. Otis Rush's "A Fool For You" shows off his incredible gospel voice. Buddy Guy's "Damn Right I Got The Blues" is another. I can lead you guys down a very deep rabbit hole if you'll let me.

You owe it to yourselves to take a listen to his song called "Blues for Narada" - it is quintessential Gary Moore but it also says everything w/o any lyrics.... Gary was such an emotive guitar player - top 5 on my list for sure !!!!!

I never knew Brad never focused on the guitar. Gary imo is one of the greatest players that can drive your emotions with a guitar. The guitars speaks when he plays. My favorite performance by GM on YT is 'The Messiah will Come Again" live. I can't say I've seen anybody that can make a guitar sound like angels are singing or lift your spirits and brighten your day like Gary.

RIP Gary..he was a shredder and an awesome blues musician who played with alot of emotion and many a rough times has his music got me through.

One of the most talented guitarists ever..he makes it look effortless..

Gary Moore is the best guitarist I ever saw live. Other-worldly talent.

I never get tired of the song. His he had such a great blues voice, and is power blues guitar is unmatched.

Gary Moore was one of the Guitar greats. A class act

A true Guitar Hero. I think he was in Thin Lizzy for a while, too. That's a band you guys oughta check out (if you haven't already) especially on St. Paddy's Day.

If you love the Blues you must listen to Gary Moore. He was in Thin Lizzy before this. He also has a fantastic song called Parisian Walkways.

Gary Moore's instrumental version of "Parisienne Walkways" is still my ultimate favorite of his! The guitar work is beyond phenomenal and so beautiful.

The greatest guitarist to ever grace this world!

Definitely one of the greatest of all time! RIP GARY✌❤🙏

I been a serious guitarist for over 50 years... Made good money doin' it in the '80's and '90's... Many of us players moved Gary Moore into the #1 spot of living guitar players in this genre when SRV passed... There is one thing though, that Moore always did better than anyone, including SRV... He was the World Master of bending strings... String bending is kinda the foundation of playing any kind of Blues, Rock, Country guitar.... And Gary Moore was FLAWLESS... Watch all the 'Live' performances you can find, and more importantly listen to them... Never a weak, over over-bend... The timing on holding his bends... The 'vibrato' or 'wavering' in his bends... Was absolutely perfect... R.I.P. Gary... And Thanks for the music.... Wade Patrick

The guitar solo is just beautiful.

Gary Moore is a fine singer but it's his guitar work that expresses his music Moore....😄. U should hear classic blues players like BB King, they squeeze every emotion from just one note. Glad Lex noticed that. And Brad loving the blues!

Wow! Gary Moore is on another level! Way back in 1977 I caught a radio broadcast of a band called Colosseum ll. Jazz rock fusion with the songs "The Inquisition", "Intergalactic Strut", and "Rivers". The guitarist was Gary Moore. I listened to those few songs that I recorded on cassette for a few years. I lost track of the band and recently caught up with Gary's music just last year finally remembering him from 1977 not knowing that he passed in 2011 over 10 years ago. Amazing guitarist!

This is absolutely one of the best songs ever written...

Gary was a once in a lifetime talent, from his days with Thin Lizzy to his early solo rock career. One of those songs was Wishing Well. And his later years of blues is perfect.

Hey guys what's up! Greetings from South Florida! Gary Moore can do it all. And he has done it all. Incredible guitar player! And yes Lex there are many different styles of the Blues. You have the delta blues the Chicago Blues the Texas Blues and many other types of Blues music. You guys rock! God bless you! Peace!

RIP to one of the best guitarists and vocalists ever ❤️❤️❤️ Can't imagine the blues without the sound of a guitar !!!

Love some Gary Moore, he makes Greeny's Les Paul sing! Messiah Will Come Again live is a great one, too.

I agree with some comments below saying you must see live version of "Messiah will come again". In that performance Gary was at his peek with his skill. The way guitar expressing emotions is out of this world, in my humble opinion that is the most complete guitar playing seen live. There is shredding, whaling, harmonies and emotions coming in waves thru all the song. That was the piece of music which made me look in a different way some guitarist, otherwise Gods of guitar, ( Gilmour, Page, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Clapton, etc.)

Gary Moore is a guitar legend not only he's from Ireland but Gary Moore is in my life

In case you didn't realize it, you just heard one of the best electric guitar solos in history.

Great performance aswell old passing the torch so to speak..(given Stevie Ray Vaughan died) Gary Moore was the next young guitarist of that age and similar ability all be it a different style but all the same VIRTUOSO!! Ps. I had a feeling Brad would love the Blues!! Cheers from London England 👍❤️🎸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿😎

one of my favorites is called 'Cold Day in Hell'...cool solo I think that's why I love it

Interesting that you guys would feature this epic Irishman today of all days. Gary Moore is comparable to none when making his guitar cry in this song. Especially at the end when he squeezes every last tear out of it. Watching him play live is even MORE dramatic and emotional. Such a loss when he passed away, but he left such an indelible mark on music in general, and I for one, am lucky to have experienced it.

Lex, that quality of "taking his time over every note" that you mentioned at the end is generally refereed to as 'tone'. It's not as flashy as speed, but good tone is really a hallmark of the best guitar players. It's also hard to teach, since it's much more matter of feeling than technique. If you want to hear guitarists with beautiful tone, try Mark Knopfler (solo or with Dire Straits) or Dave Gilmore of Pink Flloyd.

One of the best feel players of all time, i tear up to the live version of this song, everytime, it might be one of the best white boy blues songs ever written? Crazy the feel that Les Paul emotes.

This one is just awesome!!! The guitar work by the late, great Gary Moore is absolutely off the charts!

How great are you guys. What can one say about Gary Moore....genius. Thanks both, brilliant!!! Best wishes from the UK.

Gary Moore was the perfect example of what true talent is. What he played wasn't "technically" outrageous, but the soul and feeling from his hands was just incredible. Another guitarist who made me realize I'm just a guy who "noodles" on the guitar.

Gary's earlier harder rock is more my cup o tea, but he's brilliant regardless of genre.

One of greatest guitarist ever. Could play everything from hard Rock and metal to blues. This Saint Patrick's Day check out his song: over the hills and far away (nothing to do with the led Zeppelin song)

You have to check out Gary Moore's live version of The Messiah Will Return Again, it's the guitar version of watching Picasso paint. Like watching a real genius at work.

Gary is one of the best blues/rock guitarists of a generation.

Loved Brad's kid in a lolly shop smile, and Lex looking so groovy with her Mickey Mouse/Rabbi hairdo.. so cool guys!

Some MORE SERIOUS blues. Such an epic classic. Moore knew his blues! Guitars can cry. Clapton is another one who can make his guitar weep.

Brad finally responded to a guitar player who is so adept that he actually sings through the voice of a guitar. There's only a few... lot's of wannabes, but few true Improv players so skilled and practiced that they become one with the machine.
