Happy 35th Anniversary to the Gary Moore album Wild Frontier

Can't believe I forgot but February 6th marked a sad milestone as it was the 10th Anniversary of the passing of Irish guitarist Gary Moore due to a heart attack at 58. Moore was one of the best guitarist as he specialized in both hard rock and later blues. While he was big in Europe and Asia, he sadly never caught on in North America and many probably don't know him or remember him but it's their loss. Moore was a sad one for me as I've been fortunate to see almost everyone I ever wanted to but he was the one that got away.

Sad anniversary today as today marks the fifth anniversary of the death of one of the all-time great guitar players: Gary Moore. Moore was such an amazing guitarist and it's sad that he never caught on here in The United States especially since he achieved fame in Europe and Asia. As a result, he's sometimes not as celebrated as many of the greatest guitar players usually are and will likely never make it to the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame. He was probably music's best kept secret as far as America goes. I'm also disappointed that I never got to see him as I've been lucky to have seen many of the singers and bands I've always wanted to see but he was the first to pass away before I could see him. Moore was also a chameleon with the guitar as he was both great at hard rock and that 80s sound but also was great with blues rock. Hopefully, future generations will get to discover his work more in the United States than the current one. The best thing I heard about Moore regarding the United States was a KISS fansite that brought up current drummer Eric Singer having for him and then said he never made it big in the US and then wrote in parenthesis "Their Loss".
