Mr Crowley Gary Moore?

i think the outros of RR’s solo in Tonight and GM’s Cold Hearted have some similarities
 
Gary was the whole package. The man was a top shelf guitarist, singer and songwriter. He could write tear jerkers like "Empty Rooms" and this one...

 
And here's Gary melting faces live with Thin Lizzy back in '78. Full concert.

Guitars are a bit low in the mix until around the 8:00 mark, but man what a show.)

Mark Nauseef from Ian Gillan's band was filling in on drums on this gig. He played 2 tours with Thin Lizzy due to Brian Downey having health problems.

Ozzy originally wanted Gary Moore to be his guitar player. I've often wondered what they would have come up with.

Oh man, you've been missing out.

You should check out Gary before he became a bluesman too. Killer player.

I know Gary was a world class blues guitarists but my favorite Moore era, definitely him throwing down before all that stuff.

He was a huge influence from Lizzy's Black Rose really up until he went for the dollars and moved into the blues thing which frankly, I just cannot listen too.

Nobody could wring more emotion out of one note or a flurry of notes like Gary.

I like some blues and I like some of what Gary did as a Bluesman.

Most of it really is unlistenable though. Either it's a slow blues ballad, which he played well, or it's a fast blues song that only makes you miss the rocker Gary more

pun not intended.
