Biography

Many consider Gary Moore to be one of the most underappreciated guitarists in rock music, particularly in America where he has barely made an impression at all. Nonetheless he is often cited as an influence on the work of many other notable guitarists including Ozzy Osbourne’s axeman Randy Rhoads, and his fortunes are interweaved with the success of other well-considered artists.

2.0 out of 5 stars TAKE A LOOK AT THE COVER ART, March 30, 2001
This review is from: After the War (Audio CD)
The cover art of this album already signalize the listener that Gary is not feeling very well the way his career is going, and it's clealry weary of metal / hard rock. The cover has just his face in close-up, nothing more, typical of Barry Manilow, Mariah Carey and others solo artists. THis was the last record by Gary in which rocking was the rule. After this one, he made his famous transition to blues. THis album has his good moments, but they are so few ...

5.0 out of 5 stars LA ASOMBROSA MAESTRÍA DE GARY MOORE !!!, February 2, 2001
This review is from: After the War (Audio CD)
"After The War" es uno de los mejores trabajos publicados por Gary Moore durante la década de los 80!!

En este trabajo vale la pena destacar, por encima de otras consideraciones, el fantástico trabajo de guitarras, ya que allí se pueden escuchar cada uno de los colores estilísticos que Gary ha dejado sentir en cada uno de sus diferentes trabajos. Además, este gran disco es de fundamental importancia en cualquier colección de Gary Moore mínimamente digna, si tenemos en cuenta que el album puede definirse como el punto de equilibrio entre las etápas Heavy y Blues del célebre guitarrista. El mejor ejemplo de esto es la excelente versión del tema "The Messiah Will Come Again", original de Roy Buchanan. También hay que resaltar la participacion de su gran amigoOzzy Osbourne en la fenomenal "Led Clones".

De igual manera vale la pena destacar el sentido patriótico que Gary involucra en temas como "Dunluce", en donde hay un gran tratamiento en la ejecución de esas exóticas gaitas que junto al toque de guitarras establecen un contraste delicioso, o "Blood Of Emeralds", gran canción que pretende exaltar el ánimo patriótico de sus seguidores en Irlanda, bellisimamente ejecutada, y que nos hace recordar otros grandes clásicos del rock de ese país como "Emerald" de Thin Lizzy, quienes deben en gran medida parte de su sonido al aporte de Gary Moore desde su intervención en el primer line up de Skid Row.

En general, "After The War" es un album increible, bastante representativo del buen rock europeo conseguido durante finales de los años 80, y cuyo sonido puede seguir siendo estupendo durante el nuevo milenio, ya que la música de Moore permanecerá al margen de cualquier estilo, contexto o tendencias. Grandioso!!!
