Gary Moore

🎸 Gary Moore was a Northern Irish guitarist, singer, and songwriter born in Belfast in 1952. He began playing guitar as a teenager and became active in the Irish rock scene during the late 1960s. In the 1970s, he joined the band Thin Lizzy and worked with Phil Lynott on multiple occasions. During this period, he also released solo albums and became known for combining blues influences with hard rock guitar playing. Moore later shifted more heavily toward blues music, especially after releasing Still Got the Blues in 1990. The album became one of his most successful releases and included collaborations with artists such as Albert King, Albert Collins, and George Harrison. He continued recording and touring until his death in 2011 in Spain at the age of 58. @GaryMoore
