VivaOke-Gary Moore, the multitalented guitarist whose periodic membership of Thin Lizzy and solo career spanning blues, hard rock and ballads brought him chart success and the admiration of his musical peers, has died aged 58.
First drafted into Thin Lizzy by its frontman, Phil Lynott, in 1973, Moore had a number of stints with the Dublin groupand subsequently as a blues rock guitarist embraced a range of genres.
Recruited to Thin Lizzy in 1973 by Lynott - with whom he was said to share an intensely competitive relationship - Moore initially played with the group for a few months but returned four years later and went on to play on the band's Black Rose album, released in 1979.
"Playing with Gary during the Black Rose era was a great experience, he was a great player and a great guy," said the former Thin Lizzy guitarist, Scott Gorham, last night.
In the same year, Moore and Lynott enjoyed success with Parisienne Walkways, which reached the UK top 10 in 1979.
