Moore Blues for Gary - Bob Daisley and Friends Pay Tribute To Gary Moore 2018
The main thing to glean from this album is that no-one did it quite like Gary Moore. He left us way ahead of his time in February 2011 after a long and sometimes under-rated journey first with Skid Row and Thin Lizzy, then with Colosseum II and finally with a successful solo career. This really took off at the instigation of long-time bass cohort Bob Daisley when it was suggested that Gary “played the blues” and there followed a series of albums starting with Still Got The Blues in 1990. At the time it was at the forefront of a blues-rock revival.
If this album achieves anything it will have you wanting to hear the originals and maybe reinvestigating a great musician. And that’s a result.
I can second that I miss so many now days soon there wont be anybody left. I m getting the blues over the blues...

During his blues days, Gary made two albums to thank the guitarists that made him who he was: Blues For Greeny for Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac, and Blues For Jimi for Jimi Hendrix. Now, this is his turn to be rewarded with an album full of love and respect. We still got the blues for you.
