Gary Moore Gets Close

04/04/07
. (PR) Close As You Get from Irish Blues-Rock guitarist Gary Moore ups the blues ante of his �06 Old New Ballads Blues into a cohesive stripped-down blues-rock machine. Whether interpreting jump blues and urban blues classics (Chuck Berry�s �Thirty Days� and Sonny Boy Williamson�s �Eyesight To The Blind�) or giving voice to his own compositions, Moore has been an amazingly consistent singer/songwriter/performer, ever since his emergence from the British Isles in the 1960s.

His work in Thin Lizzy and in Colosseum II (longtime Thin Lizzy drummer Brian Downey can be heard on Close As You Get) endeared Moore to more than one generation. He has continued to gravitate towards the earthy emotion-packed centers of gutbucket barrelhouse blues�n�boogie in his solo work, of which Close As You Get absolutely revels in. The CD hits stores on May 29th.
