The iconic album ‘Still Got the Blues’, a Gary Moore masterpiece, offers us unforgettable songs and a display of unique plucking that only the talented Northern Irishman could provide.
‘Still Got the Blues’ was born at a crucial moment in Moore's career, when he decided to move away from metal and hard rock, genres that no longer satisfied him.
He expressed that he did not recognise himself in his previous work and longed to return to his roots, to the music he had been passionate about since he was a child: the blues. His record label supported his decision after some negotiations.
This transformation became evident during the ‘After War’ tour in the late 80s, where he began to include blues jam sessions in his concerts.
For this new path, he collaborated with musicians such as Don Airey and Bob Daisley, as well as having the participation of legends such as George Harrison, Albert King and Albert Collins.
Among the iconic compositions on the album are ‘Still Got the Blues’, ‘Walking By Myself’ and ‘Oh Pretty Woman’, all brimming with feeling.
With this work, Gary Moore managed to offer an album that has established itself as one of the essential albums of the 90s.
