Found this one lurking on the hard drive as " Hary More "! Must have been on the turps again! Anyway, Gary Moore is one of my heroes and this track was always one of my faves...used to play it in Black Rose back in the day.

Because there are no vocals, I did a sorta Hank Marvin stylee (it was listening to sgstd's post today that got me lookin' for this one!) and there are a good few harmony lines on it. I remember at the time I was real concerned not to get it 'clipping' because of all the guitar so maybe the mix is a bit suspect in places.

I'd like to see Gary Moore writing stuff like this and 'The Loner' again as, though I enjoyed his blues period, I don't think it's as good as his stuff on albums like 'Corridors Of Power', 'After The War', 'Victims of The Future' and 'Run For Cover'. For anybody wanting to hear him REALLY wail, look out for his 'G-Force' album which, besides the dodgy guitar tone, has him trying to do an EVH on a track called 'Rockin' and Rollin' and has some brilliant rock tracks such as 'You' and 'She's Got You' which has an absolutely mind-blowing solo! This album came out in 1981 and might be hard to find these days but if you see it, BUY it!

Hey Chris this sounds superb , sounds like a Marshall Stack ! really does , clever stuff this Pod lark , your playing is so Gary Moore its remarkable .love the Harmony guitars , class sheer class ....:thumb:


by the way seen him a couple of years ago in Newcastle , i was sat 3 rows from the front , all he had was one old Marshall amp , 2x4x12 , a Boss DS1 a Green Tube Screamer and a Boss echo unit ! he was laid back , but mesmorising .......

Thanks for listening mate. Me and Malla went to see him at The Mayfair in 1983 when he was doing the 'Corridors Of Power' album. He had Ian Paice on drums, Don Airey on keys and Neil Murray on bass. He was amazing but we missed the last train home and ended up walking along the A19 as far as Sunderland where we got a bus at 6.30am! I remember saying, 'should we go the A19 or along the A1...which will have more chance of getting someone to stop and give us a lift?'. We went the A19 and ONE car went past in 5 hours! :ball:

great fretwork as usual wahwah...i got into gary moore a little late in the game...the "still got the blues" era...his music is as scarce as hen's teeth here...it's unbelievable...i heard he doesn't tour here...that might have something to do with it... :icon_thum

 

[wahwah]

Yeah, not sure why Gary doesn't get as much press in the US as Europe but he has done some monster stuff. Thanks for listening man. :thumb:

I believe this was the first post I ever heard on this site. I've been after that tone ever since! The playing is world class.:bowdown:

Here in the states we seem to have a love affair with horrible highways (routs, roads and freeways), now I'm really curious about this A19!:toothless

 

[SLoB]

Cool playing as usual Chris
we'll all be playing Shadows stuff next

 

[wahwah]

Thanks guys...as for the A19 strat, just think of a coast road without all the nice stuff of the A1a thru Florida! Cold, wet and damp. :icon_peac
