Gary smoked all of them, just was the best guitar player ever. And i'm a Santana and David Gilmour Fan too!

British man, British amp, American guitar, American music...rock and roll, and blues, proves that Americans and Britons shall always be blood brothers. We may disagree on how to speak English, but when it comes to blues and rock, there is no disagreement between us.

he was the best blues player I ever heard , he is sadly missed , just words don't describe what a loss he is , and what a contribution he made towards guitar and music , he was a rare gifted genius . RIP you will never be forgotten .

Man, in my opinion only Gary and SRV played with this amount of intensity consistently. Passion and fire. Impressive.

You don’t hear many Gary copycats because his playing was and still is too fucking good for people to wrap their fingers around. Man was a true genius.

im 63 years old ive had the honor to listen to Gary Moore over for 43 years miss him badly he was one of the GREATS man will ever know

I was privileged enough to see Gary with Thin Lizzy, Colosseum II and solo. For me he was the greatest guitarist. Thanks for the music, Gary. Thanks for posting.

At last - somebody else who like me actually saw different incarnations of Gary. So much, much more than a blues man. Rock/Fusion and even a gig with Andrew Lloyd Webber! Fantastic musicality throughout. George Harrison and Greg Lake also saw him as the greatest

Technically, and emotionally, a master player without equal. Made my day to have spotted this. RIP Gary!

Gary Moore was the complete musician. Apart from technical bravery, he mastered many different genres, didn´t focus on senseless shredding, gave great importance to melodic beauty , strong passion and never sold himself to producers, the buisness, the chicks ... Hope he remains a role model for young guitar aspirants.

Even at the last .....simply the best guitarist that has ever played !!....There will NEVER be another player with the skill and passion he had !!....

I'm proud to say that Gary Moore's last gig was actually in the Ranelagh pub in Brighton with my Dad and me. My dad on guitar and vocals and myself on Cajon, as I was inbetween touring with Candela Trio , No bassist but it still rocked. I went for a pee in the break and there was some young guy in the toilet ringing someone else telling them he'd never been to a live gig before and he was blown away by it. I felt like turning around and saying to him do you know those guys are up there..... I kept the moment for myself 😂

Today (6 February 2021) marks the 10th year since the legend left us - but his legacy will live on through his timeless music - RIP 🙏

The death of Gary was one of the most horrible days in music history...

Gary was a Godsend on the guitar. He had a rare emotional intensity mixed with technical prowess you rarely see. Eric Clapton called SRV an “open channel” - the power and music came from above and flowed straight through him. Gary was also an open channel IMHO. He had such a tremendous effect on my playing, transforming me from a shredder with lightning scales and sweeps that sounded like video game music into looking at music differently - melody, dynamics and emotion. You are missed Gary. ❤️🎸

Wow, it's been 5 years since we lost Gary. He died 2 months before his 60th birthday. RIP, Gary.

im crying now.....lost that great man way to soon :(

Gary I miss you so much. Still gutted that you are not here. However, your skill will live on, and the Gary Army will keep you alive forever. RIP you wonderful maestro.

He started with an explorer then used a mixture of Les Paul's through the gig - all of the Les Paul's sounded fantastic.

I wish I'd paid more attention - also not sure which models of LP (sorry) - you just think these people will be around forever, but no one really comes close in his genre. I do love Ian Bairnson's playing and tone though. Ps : I play mostly a 59 VOS R9 and love it

this makes me cry. what a loss.

I loved Gary's direction right before his passing... his tone sweetened a little and matured, but it was still aggressive any angry. Such a shame he passed....

Such emotion, brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Gary for the blues and rest in peace.

I discovered Gary in my late teens, I’m 56 now and have been a fan all these years. Living in a rural area far from any big venues I rarely see any big name musicians. I wish I could have seen Gary live. Thanks for sharing this.

In my opinion the best guitar player ever!!! R.I.P. MASTER GARY MOORE!!!

I remember when I stumbled upon this very video. A few years back I was going through a phase where I was super impressed by technical proficiency one can achieve on guitar, and once I heard the solos on "Pretty Woman", I was blown away and started digging deeper into Gary's music. Little did I know that this footage of Gary's last concert would kickstart my love for his music, and ultimately discovering that apart from insane chops, he poured all of his soul into the music, and his feeling of the blues is really unmatched. He perfectly combined the technical aspect with emotional, without comprising one or the other. What a player!

This guy left a great big hole in the rock and blues community... thank you for all the memories Gary

Went way too soon, your guitar playing had so much soul in it, you gave your heart out on that stage each performance, there will only ever be one Gary Moore

There will never be another guitar player like Gary Moore!The best that has ever lived and his sound is insane!He makes every other guitar player sound like beginners Van halen and everybody else!If Hendrix ever had heard this i dont think that he would ever pick up a guitar again whats the point?When Gary plays he make eveyone else look like fools.Such a shame that he loved the booze to much thats really what killed him his heart couldnt take the abuse anymore.

The best way to have seen him live - up close and personal in a small venue.

listen to that solo of Still Got the Blues , that is perfectly awesome , nobody can play like him and never will. RIP

As Albert King once said of Gary..."His fingers is the wildest things"...Albert was right. Gary was one of those special musicians who could make what was in his heart be expressed in his music and he graciously shared his gift with all of us. Another musical treasure lost but most definitely not forgotten.

He was a wonderful guitarist and undoubtedly the best that I've ever heard to be honest. He was not only technically brilliant but his melodies reach into the depth of ones soul. A considerable number of guitarists just produce meaningless unmelodious noise. Why these other guitarists are given so much credence, baffles me. I cant understand it at all. Gary's death is a loss to the world of virtuoso guitar music. He cant be replaced again, ever.

I don't know that he's the greatest ever, but he sure showed a lot for his short time on the planet. In this performance he's doing Hendrix and Jeff Beck licks, Albert King and Peter Green. And a great voice, too. As great as Joe Bonamassa is, he is not as good as Gary Moore. I think Gary has more soul in his playing and just as many outrageous chops. Naturally beautiful and emotional guitar playing. So sad he's gone. But he does not look good at all in this video, even though he's playing his ass off. It's kind of freaky because you know this was it for him. What a way to go out. To be in that small club and in the crowd that night must have been amazing and very special, all things considered. R.I.P.

Gary, we all still got the Blues since you left!

A pure genius at work. No one better before or after. RIP Gary Moore.

Gary Moore could play all the fast, showy licks, but he also had a great sense of melody and a real feeling for the music. He composed some of the most beautiful solos ever played on a Les Paul. Depending on what day it is, either he or Michael Bloomfield would be my favorite electric guitarist ever.
