The Gary Moore Collection Part II

Gary Moore (1952 – 2011) - Born in Belfast, Gary Moore is considered to be one of the greatest blues rock guitarists of all time.  With a career spanning four decades, starting with Skid Row in 1968, alongside a young Philip Lynott, with whom he was to go on to play with in a number of Thin Lizzy line-ups, during the 1970’s.  The years 1975 – 1978 saw a move to British jazz-rock band Colosseum II, before a brief return to Thin Lizzy.

After which, he focused on a varied solo career, gaining momentum throughout the 1970s and 80’s, peaking in 1990 with his multi-million selling album, Still Got the Blues.

Always in demand, Moore’s career saw him collaborate with some of the greatest artists in blues and rock including B.B King, Albert’s King and Collins, Greg Lake, Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker, John Mayall and Paul Rodgers to name a few.
