I grew up with my parents listening to Gary Moore. Still got the blues is an amazing song. It feels like it is part of my childhood.
Gary Moore RIP

Rest in Peace Gary Moore. Still Got the Blues was an astounding song. My wife and I enjoyed his talent very much. Very talented guitarist and performer

Not only was I shocked and saddened to learn that he’d been taken from us at such an early age, but recalling the genuine guy that he was I got choked listening back to (a recording of) him explaining to me in 2004 how he’d like to be remembered. He summed himself up perfectly: “Oh f***, I don’t know. However they want! As somebody that didn’t bullsh*t. Whatever I did, at least I meant it. That’s all I can say really cos I usually do mean it. I’m not full of sh*t like a lot of people. Whatever I do, whether it sells or not, at least I mean it at the time and I’m honest about it. Which I think is the only way to be.”

I saw him at the High Voltage festival in london last year,and while it wasn't his best performance,it was still good to hear him play.
