Gary Moore: 1952 - 2011

Wow. Very sad news to report today. Guitar legend Gary Moore, one of my personal favorite rock players of all time, passed away in his sleep today in Spain. Moore was a huge influence on my own playing. I loved his uber-aggressive style, especially during the Corridors of Power / Victims of the Future era of his career. I remember being blown away when he essentially re-invented himself from a Euro-Metal player to a searing blues musician with 1990's Still Got The Blues. Truly a great player; he will be sorely missed.
