Topic: For those wanting some new Gary Moore

New York, NY (July 12, 2012)—Eagle Rock Entertainment is proud to announce the September 25 release of the Gary Moore CD, DVD and Blu-ray title Blues For Jimi.


This release captures a unique concert featuring Moore playing Jimi Hendrix tracks, including such classics as “Purple Haze,” “Foxy Lady,” “The Wind Cries Mary,” “Hey Joe,” “Voodoo Child (Slight Return)” and many more. Filmed at the London Hippodrome on October 25, 2007, it was part of the launch for the Jimi Hendrix “Live At Monterey” program.


At the end of the night, Gary was joined by Mitch Mitchell and Billy Cox of the Jimi Hendrix Experience for three tracks. The full line-up for this show was Gary Moore (guitar, vocals); Dave Bronze (bass); Darrin Mooney (drums) with Billy Cox (bass on tracks 9-11, and also vocals on the first two of those) and Mitch Mitchell (drums on tracks 9-11).



Both Gary Moore and Mitch Mitchell have passed since this concert took place, which makes the recording of this incredible night so special. Gary Moore was one of the finest British guitarists of all time and is one of the few players who could pay homage to Jimi Hendrix’s groundbreaking and truly distinctive guitar style. This is a stunning tribute from one master guitarist to another.



TRACK LISTING

1) Purple Haze

2) Manic Depression

3) Foxy Lady

4) The Wind Cries Mary

5) I Don’t Live Today

6) My Angel

7) Angel

8) Fire

Re: For those wanting some new Gary Moore

I just spoke with Peter Noble who did the PR for that show back in 2007, and he told me it was incredible - here's a YouTube clip from that show, mind you, the Eagle Rock DVD will be much. much more impressive.

Re: For those wanting some new Gary Moore

Does anyone know what happened to the "new Blues album" and the "Celtic Rock album" that Gary announced shortly before his death?

I don't think any actual studio work had begun.  Neil Carter was back on board with Gary and the band was set, but ....

Re: For those wanting some new Gary Moore

Actually, the Celtic rock album was about half way complete. I'm doing an article on the Green/Moore Les Paul, and I should soon be speaking with Neil Carter, so I'll be sure to ask him about it - should be this coming week smile

I was referring to what he said here at about 2:00 min. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38JkzYGvYV4

I assume work on the Blues album hadn't started then.

Album was half done... well demo stages anyway...

I heard 3 tracks of the demo at Chris Tsangarides' studio when we recorded ours last year...
those 3 new tunes were featured on the Montreux DVD that was released last year.

Great tunes
