"Gary Moore is definitely in my list of top five guitar influences, right up there with Jimi Hendrix, Eddie Van Halen, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Michael Schenker. He just blew me away from the first time I heard him." Kirk Hammett"The most powerful, genuine, authentic blues-rock guitarist of his day." Jack Bruce"Gary opened the door for me and a lot of other blues-rock guitarists. He was a legend, a musical titan and a very nice man."
