Gary Moore, How Blue Can You Get. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

Gone, but never once forgotten, and even in the ten years since the passing of one of the greats of Blues guitar, the outpouring of love for Gary Moore is equal the continued interest in his work, the retrospectives and the delved into live performances that have been made available since his untimely death, and whilst the feeling of neglect has never once entered the thoughts of the fans left behind, there is obviously sadness that there wasn’t just one more studio album for them to let their Blues hearts revel in, to let them have a final discussion on just how important Gary Moore was to the genre, to music.

Somebody reminded Joe Bonamassa during his visit to Liverpool that the first time he played near the city, in the excellent venue that was just a well-aimed cannon ball shot across the Mersey to Pacific Road in Birkenhead. In that seemingly short time, Joe has gone onto be one of the greatest guitarists in the world. Technically stunning and with no short comings at all, not musically or as decent human being it seems either.
