He was far better than the rest of the music world gave him credit. I still have an album he recorded as part of "BBM", a sort of "Cream" supergroup project with Moore, Ginger Baker & Jack Bruce. It really was a very good album that was overshadowed by the "Cream" connection. I believe I also have an instructional video Jack Bruce issued that featured Moore on lead guitar. It is always sad to see someone pass who did not fully recieve their due while alive. There are so many 'flash-bang' "shred" guitarists who claim the spotlight and so many truly gifted artists who don't.
RIP, Gary Moore...
