Axelinger Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Shocked to hear of this awful news. In the 80's, Gary Moore was God as far as I was concerned. Mainstream media never gave him his proper due, and I'm sure they'll continue that trend. He was more about the music than leaping into the spotlight, or hogging publicity. I just about fell off my chair when I saw the news on Thin Lizzy's page on Facebook; it actually took a few seconds to register that his date of birth to date of death was the heading. Totally out of the blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC_AOR Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Very shocking news. I thought Gary was still going strong, releasing albums fairly regularly. 'Empty Rooms' is one of my all time favourite songs but I love quite a bit of his old music. 'Military Man', 'Over the Hills and Far Away' - all great songs. RIP Gary.
