I'm not as a studied, technically, as you might think. My technique has really evolved naturally over the years from watching other guitarists and trying to develop my own style.

Whenever I was in the dressin...

Whenever I was in the dressing room on my own, I'd start playing blues to myself. One night, Bob Daisley, the bass player, came in and said, 'You know, Gary, you should make a blues album next. It might be the biggest thing you ever did.' I laughed. He laughed, too. But I did, and he was right, and it was.

Most musicians make the same ...

Most musicians make the same record every time, and that's fine. But the people I respected when I was growing up, like Jeff Beck - they weren't afraid to try something new.

If you put a Mars bar in one of Glenn Hughes’ hands and a bass in the other, he’ll choose the Mars bar.

If you are an expressive play...

If you are an expressive player, people can feel that. It is an emotional thing and becomes an extension of yourself.

A friend is someone who walks into a room when everyone else is walking out.

Lots of kids when they get their first instrument hammer away at it but they don't realise there are so many levels of dynamics with a guitar. You can play one note on a guitar and it really gets to people if it is the right note in the right place played by the right person.

Well, I have been playing electric guitar all these years and acoustic was something new to me.

I didn't want to end up in Hollywood having facelifts and my hair dyed blond so I could appear on my own album cover.

Gary Moore 7 quotes

I think that a lot of people ...

I think that a lot of people are going so wrong by analysing music too much and learning from a totally different perspective from the way I learned. I mean, I just learned by listening to people. People I learned from learned by listening to people.

Obviously I don't play the same way as Peter, but I could do a passable imitation of Peter Green; if you gave me a guitar I could sit here and probably get closer than anybody else.

The blues needs to be everything to you, otherwise it's not going to come across. That's what I think.

Gary Moore 7 quotes

When you get into the habit of leaving a space, you become a much better player for it. If you've got an expressive style, and can express your emotions through your guitar, and you've got a great tone, it creates a lot of tension for the audience. It's all down to the feel thing.

I did play with Dr. Strangely Strange a couple of years ago - that difficult third album, 'Alternative Medicine,' 1997. It was great to see them all. They're very special people and they were very good to me in Dublin in the 1960s.

Gary Moore 7 quotes

The first time I saw Peter Gr...

The first time I saw Peter Green play was at the Club Rado, which was a very rough club in Belfast, and at that time he'd just replaced Eric in the Bluesbreakers. I'd gone up there to sort of hang out and see if I could meet this guy Peter Green, because I'd read about him and everything.

I always think it would be great to play clubs again, and then when I do I don't like it because I just feel sometimes it's a bit too intimate.

I wasn't really worrying too much about what anybody thought: if you do that you shut yourself down.

I always loved the Yardbirds ...

I always loved the Yardbirds when I was a kid, you know; I was always into Jeff Beck and everything.

Gary Moore 7 quotes

I learnt fairly quickly that that was what I wanted to be - a guitarist - because it was the first thing I ever done in my life that really felt like it was something that I belonged to. I don't know... from the moment I picked it up it felt right.

Gary Moore 7 quotes

As time has gone on I've felt less and less need to play too many notes. That's something you do when you're younger, you play far too much and too fast.
