4.0 out of 5 stars You May Have Missed This One!, April 7, 2005

This review is from: Corridors of Power (Audio CD)

This album was originally released back in the early '80s, but it never received the attention it deserved. After Gary released this he went on tour in support of Def Leppard on the Pyromania tour. Although he was able to play in front of huge audiences this album never did "take off", and it's a shame because this was a great release.
The intro to the song End Of The World featured a terrific instrumental piece that would please any shred fan, and this was before shred became popular. Don't Take Me For A Loser was a very good "rocker". The album contained two ballads (Always Gonna Love You and Falling In Love With You) that if they had been relaesed they would have been #1 hits, and they would have sent this album soaring up the charts. If you like great guitar playing and good "melodic" harder rock songs pick this one up. You won't be disappointed!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Moore Rocks!, March 28, 2006

Gary Moore rocks out on this album which originally came out in 1982. I love this remastered version with the 3 bonus tracks. All together you get 3 versions of the song "Falling In Love With You" which is a great rock ballad;I especially love the instrumental version where the singing is replaced by excellent guitar solos. Gary's guitar playing is top notch throughout the album. The guitar work at the beginning of "The End of the World" is blistering. This song also features Jack Bruce from Cream on lead vocals.Another familiar name apearing on the album is Ian Paice of Deep Purple who plays the drums. This is cd is one of Moore's better ones,right up there with his other 1980's hard rocking cds.

I have been a Gary Moore fan since his Colosseum II days and he remains one of my all-time favorite guitar players. Incredible technique and great feel. Gary plays his leads as if the ship is going down! Killer tone and blazing licks! I don't think Gary got the recognition he deserved here in the states but he can wail with the best of 'em. There were some pretty impressive guitarists around when this CD was released but I wouldn't take any of them over Gary. Gary was just ferocious on the guitar.
The fact that Gary can go from a fusion band like Colosseum to Thin Lizzy to this to the blues shows just how versatile and skilled a player he is. He is highly proficient in all those styles. I have had the good fortune of seeing Gary perform twice and he was on top of his game, as expected. Trust me, this CD needs to be in your collection, especially if you're a guitarist. Gary is the man!!
