Can someone tell me how low his guitar is tuned here? This is some heavy shit....doom at it's best.

I love this:

Very Interesting - sort of prog fusion - really enjoyed it. Some top notch playing !!

So, I'm reading this guitar tab for "Magic Bus" and it's telling me to tune my guitar down one whole step (D G C Bb A D) and then put a capo on the fifth fret. Can't I just leave my guitar in standard tuning, put the capo on the fourth fret and just transpose everything down one fret? Wouldn't that be the exact same thing?

Yeah, that makes sense to me.

Well, that's what I've been doing for the last forty minutes and it sounds perfect.

Yeah, just keep doing that. Tuning it down a whole step and putting it on the 5th fret is just pointless.

Yes, excellent musicians! The guitarist reminds me of Steve Vai.

George my man, check this one out....

I've been listening to a lot of Gary Moore this week. In fact, he's basically all I've been listening to for the past 3 days. What a fantastic player.

His rock playing>Blues Playing so easily.....

I agree, but that's not to say he's a slouch in the blues department.

Oh most certainly not. He gets way too much hate in that department for some reason I cannot understand.

When 'Still got the Blues' came out, I loved it. So I bought the next few albums and they were just more of the same, but not as good.

Gary was a phenomenal player, possibly the most underrated of them all, but to me will always be a rock player. I just felt that the blues thing was going through the motions after a while. I saw him twice as a 'blues artist', and neither time was inspiring. In fact, the 2nd time (Sheffield City Hall), people were walking out in droves in the 2nd half, ironically, because it was obvious that Gary was 'rocking out' too much for their taste.

He was always a guy who could slow it down and stil pick a blazing solo (Empty rooms etc), but when I look back at the shows and recordings of Victims era Gary Moore, thats what i want to remember !

I agree with Seeker.
Moore can definitely play blues, but his tone and choice of notes are rock all the way.
Kinda like the same situation with Bonamassa.

At any rate though, Moore was phenomenal. Wanted posted some tune of his a while back that absolutely FLOORED me, can't remember what it was though.
