    One of my favourite guitarists - I particularly liked his brief phase with Colosseum II.

    I hope the rumours are not true - it's not on trusted sites like the BBC or NME.

    Oh that is sad news - excellent guitarist who I've seen many times both with Thin Lizzy and solo.

    I saw him at the Albert Hall when he had Albert Collins guesting and then he had a surprise guest - George Harrison. Among others they played When My Guitar Gently Weeps - it was a great night.

    Again very sad - R.I.P. Gary

    I was at that gig too - amazing night.

    Now on the BBC, so I guess it's true.

    I was at that gig too. Legend - one of my favourite guitarists. Even his commercial stuff was brilliant. Parisienne Walkways and Still Got The Blues have some of the most 'feeling' I've ever heard.

    Lizzy were right up amongst the best bands for me, although all the best stuff was recorded with Brian Robertson and Scott Goram I think that Gary Moore was a great guitarist both in and out of Lizzy.

    Choked at this news

    Fantastic Blues Player. His playing on Lizzy's "Black Rose" album is nothing short of stunning. Will be sadly missed!!!

    Died in his sleep - must be more to it than that.

    I am so jealous that you own one of his guitars - the closest I got to a connection with him was that my band used to practice at the same studio as his, but we stopped using it because the guy started adding on VAT!
