If you like this, you'll love Rachmaninov's variations on a theme of Paganini.

Brilliant musicians.

Why don't Yamaha make the CS80 again? I'd quite happily sell a kidney.

The best brilliant Gary Moore

Gary moore what a talent I guess why he loved the Jazz days. He was a really talented jazz blues and rock played gave 100%

This tune has become my guilty pleasure. Love it love it

Barbara Thompson's superb sax tone. Boy could that lady play.

fantastic and what a line up !

fantastic and what a line up !

Rock out from Gary Moore, very cool indeed !

Amazing players incuding Gary Moore, Jon Hiseman and Rod Argent.

This is actually the first piece of real music that I had heard during my childhood and I still think that this is the greatest piece of music ever.

RIP gary moore, Is'nt that peter greens les paul?

I bought the LP Variations when it came out. It got played a lot with the resulting scratches unfortunately. I love the short jazzy numbers; the first half of Part 3 (here) and Part 4. I've just ordered the CD from Amazon.com. I seem to recall the music got made as a result of a bet about football (Millwall?) between the brothers, which Andrew lost (but don't quote me).

I have yet to see it on CD.

I bought this vinyl direct after it was broadcasted on Swedish TV. I loved it then and I still love it after all these years. Gary Moore RIP.

yea

Soooo great....

@Karatiannadiante He lost a bet on a Leyton Orient football match to his younger brother Julian.

Looks like Julian had tourettes in this! LOL, I know he was just being expressive. REally like this though, true talent! <3 Paganini would definately aprove!

Brilliant - remember watching it first broadcast way back...

This was my favorite part of the ENTIRE ALBUM. Memories...

@camillagluh Same here. I was going through my dads collection and found it. now I'm obsessed with it.

HAHAHAHA, I love how it cuts to a shot of a bemused-looking ALW at the end. Sexy pout.

I have repeated this about 50x in the last week or so. love it, love it, love it!

So amazing. I had no idea there was live footage of this. Makes me miss dancing SO much. Thank you for posting this. Are their others beyond this?

Aaaagh, this is one of my favourite ones! This record is still so high up there on my list. So great to see variations beyond the famous 1-4!

@alldesignstudio how name this album?

at 1:37... is he just playing random cluster chords with the melody on top? :')

@gillgain That is exactly my experience too! Played the vinyl to death!! Rich.

Terrific stuff.

RIP Gary Moore. Thanks for the upload.

wonderful music from all with those classic chords I remember so well RIP Gary

I adore this piece of music. My young sons know it by heart I listen to it so often! Julian's undoubtedly the best cellist in the world in my humble opinion!

@simminoob Me too. Good to have something pre-Broadway Weber.

Where can i buy this album today?
