Gary Moore (1952 – 2011)

Born in Belfast, Gary Moore is considered to be one of the greatest blues rock guitarists of all time.  With a career spanning four decades, starting with Skid Row in 1968, alongside a young Philip Lynott, with whom he was to go on to play with in a number of Thin Lizzy line-ups, during the 1970’s.  The years 1975 – 1978 saw a move to British jazz-rock band Colosseum II, before a brief return to Thin Lizzy.

After which, he focused on a varied solo career, gaining momentum throughout the 1970s and 80’s, peaking in 1990 with his multi-million selling album, Still Got the Blues.

Always in demand, Moore’s career saw him collaborate with some of the greatest artists in blues and rock including B.B King, Albert’s King and Collins, Greg Lake, Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker, John Mayall and Paul Rodgers to name a few.

Gardiner Houlgate is delighted to offer the following items on behalf of the Gary Moore company, most of which have been used by Gary either live on stage, in the studio, or at his personal home studio.  The following eighty-eight lots feature a broad representation of equipment from Gary’s solo career spanning the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s, right up to his last tour in 2010.

The auction will take place on Wednesday 11th December 2019.
