I love how Albert knows that while he's not a shredder like Gary, he can talk with his guitar like nobody else. Always fun to see great players together.
@@SELLAVISIONMMPL Yeah, he was afraid of flying. Also didn't like to do small venues, at least in his pre-blues days... he really could have cashed in on some of his 90s success but alas...
Cool... Was that Stevie Winwood on the Hammond organ? Saw Albert Collins in Chicago several times. One year Albert King, BB King and Albert Collins played back to back on the same stage at the Chicago Blues Fest, each with their own band... and the weather was fine. We damn sure heard some Blues that day... ;-)
Nope, that's Don Airey on organ! Him and Gary Moore had a long history. Almost twenty years earlier, hey played jazz-fusion in Colosseum II before Don joined Rainbow, Don also played on Gary's first solo album and first big solo tour, then came back for this one, later again on Old New Ballads Blues. Nowadays Don is in Deep Purple... alongside Ian Paice who was also in Gary's band in the 80s
AC cut Gary a lot of slack and respect and was willing to be subtle on this number. As great as Moore was Albert was just a he himself said "THE BEST!" Check out AC and SRV slamming out Frosty!!
Either this was a LOT more chilled than I hope it was, or reallly, .. Garry Moore was his mental enforcer. I love Gary Moore, but by god ..... I don't want to be on the wrong side of him in this mood :)
May so, KingOfHammer, and all respect to AC. But @3:58 he dropped the ball on this number. That part of the song was going so strong and then AC ran out of fuel.
@@danw5785 In this video (and most performances from 1990)? Yes. But check out later recordings like "Jumpin' at Shadows" from Blues Alive. Or "Trouble Ain't Far Behind" from his last album. Lots and lots of space.
You guys are talking about Gary not playing the blues ? He's one of the best blues players that ever lived he just did an Irish version of it. That's how he felt it. He didn't copy anybody he was unique
