RIP Gary Moore

Sadly a great loss, complete shock to me, Parisenne Walkways is one of his outstanding tracks.

 

Apparently he died in his sleep. He was in fine health.

 

RIP

Wow, 58 is such a young age to die. :o My eldest brother idolised Gary Moore in his teens when he learnt guitar and joined a few different bands back in the late 70s/early 80s.

Absolute legend,and a huge loss, r.i.p Gary.

Sad loss - he was amazing! RIP Gary.

 

 

i still cant believe he died. My dad used to play his music all the time when i was younger. To be honest he still does
