Default Wanted - Gary Moore suggestions

If I want to chill out I turn to music like this and to my all time favourite Roy Buchanan

I am not over familiar with Gary Moore's work so who can suggest something please


Thank you.

Still got the blues

Parisian walkways

Make sure they are live versions.

Also check out his performance of Red House. In my opinion a great performance worthy of jimi's approval.

Pretty much anything apart from Dark Days in Paradise which is terrible pants. Revisit the old stuff, Victims of the Future, Wild Frontier (classic) even After the War, then the blues stuff. 70's Grinding Stone quite hard going. Such a shame to see him in terrible shape at the end of his life. One of my favourite guitarists.

I'm not a big Blues fan, but few could play like Gary!!

I personally think "The Prophet" is his best work

Need your love so bad came for a great album, Blues for Greeny, where Gary covered a lot of the original, and far away the best, Fleetwood Mac material using the guitar originally used by Peter Green himself before he discovered what pharmaceuticals can do to your central nervous system ....

When I was a lad, all those years ago, Peter Green was my hero and Need Your Love So Bad was my favourite track. Probably still is. The tone of his playing was stunning.

So sad to see Peter now, his skills shot to pieces shuffling around on stage.

Thanks guys for all the input.


David

PS. If you like Peter's old stuff have a search for The Supernatural which he played when he was with John Mayall IIRC.

Saw Gary Moore quite a few times and he was a superb artist, such a shame when he passed at such a young age.

I swas peter Green a few years ago and he was still magnificent, Albatross sticking in my mind from the one gig.

Blues alive is a good album.

Peter can still play...sort of ... but he's not a patch on what he was. I'm sadly old enough to remember him playing pre drugs.
