    What ever happened to the great Gary Moore? Haven't heard anything about him gigging in ages. Just reminiscing here listening to some of his old stuff, Empty Rooms, Still Go The Blues and Parisienne Walkways with Phil'o. Saw him in SFX once and swore I'd go again if he returned here in the future but alas... :(

    He released an album last year called Power of the Blues, with Bob Daisley of Ozzy fame on bass.

    ...and prior to that he released a great album called 'Scars' with Darrin Mooney from Primal Scream on drums and the bass player from Skunk Anansie (Cass Lewis I think his name is). He's very active indeed, you must be living under a rock? ;):p

    As you may have read... I did say he hadn't gigged and not that he hadn't been active recording and producing material. But thanks for the info DJ :eek: :p

    And he was supposed to support Whitesnake when they played here a short while back but pulled out the day before, some hand injury or other. :p

    I'm a huge fan, more so of the blues stuff. Have always wondered why he was never really rated in Ireland - for me he is one of the top 10 guitarists. Would love to see him live...

    He is indeed an excellent guitarist, but the sad fact is that he's talented, and music in Ireland is ruled by Louis Walsh and his army of talentless Take That clones. If Louis was around in the 70's, Thin Lizzy would never have released a record, and instead, we'd have a handfull of Monkees clones that dominated all music.

    Recognition for talent here in Ireland is like asking the Pope to attend a Motorhead concert.

    How do you lose an album?? Stupid question I'm sure when I hear the answer.. You probably brought it to a party and it was gone when you went to look for it...? Considering you bought it originally I feel you would be entitled to download it all again from t'internet. I mean that's what its here for (kinda) :D
