Gary Moore (b. April 4, 1952 Robert William Gary Moore) in Belfast, Northern Ireland is acknowledged as one of the finest guitarists to have originated from the British Isles. In a career dating back to the 1960s he has played with bands including Thin Lizzy, Colosseum II and Skid Row as well as having a successful solo career. Gary started performing from a young age and got his first good guitar at the age of 14. In a career lasting over 30 years he has demonstrated that he is a fine musician and his unique style of playing has adapted to very different music genres. Skid Row In 1970 he formed the group Skid Row with Noel Bridgeman and Bruce Shiels. The music was eclectic covering a wide range including jazz, rock and blues. It was with this group that he earned himself a reputation in the music business and his association with Philip Lynott began.

Thin Lizzy Gary played in Thin Lizzy for several periods and worked with Phil Lynott subsequently in his solo career. Albums Solo career In 1973 he released his first solo album as the Gary Moore Band. In 1979 his solo career started again with help from Phil Lynott, the combination of Gary's blues based guitar and Phil's voice produced "Parisenne Walkways" which reached the UK Top Ten in April 1979. After a series of powerful rock records Gary returned to blues music with Still Got the Blues, with contributions from B. B. King, Albert King and Albert Collins the album was well received by fans and a huge success.
