Out In The Fields. (With Phil Lynott)


Here is the wiki link to Gary Moore with a great section on his original 1959 Gibson Les Paul which he bought off the legendary Peter Green.

As one who is no great lover of rock music, all I can say is Gary Moore is a genius.

edit: err...forgot to add the link:bnghd:

glad someone else knows what time it is with gary.

the dude can play

Yep Phil Lynott (RIP) and Gary Moore, Rock legends.

Out in the fields is one of my favorites plus the video is a hoot, gotta love the 80's.
Gary was pretty big back in the late 70's, early 80's with the crowd i used to knock around with, mostly hard rock and headbangers, but he could also shred up a blues storm.
On a par with guy's from that era like Michael Schenker, Uli Jon Roth, the legendary Randy Rhoads, Satriani etc.
