One of the final concerts by Gary Moore, this features a classic collection of his hard-edged brand of blues rock. I’ve already reviewed the DVD of this set. Although Moore occasionally winds up off-key in terms of vocals, his guitar playing is always incredible and the musical concepts involved are classic.

This review is available in book format (hardcover and paperback) in Music Street Journal: 2011  Volume 6 at lulu.com/strangesound.

Combining Celtic sounds with hard rocking bluesy guitar rock, this is a killer tune and a great way to start the set off in style.

Here’s a cut that’s slow and a bit more melodic. It’s a blues rocker that’s not as fierce as some of the other music we’ve heard thus far. It’s a good tune, but drags on a bit long.
