The heavy music world mourns the loss of Northern Irish guitar legend Gary Moore who passed away today at the age of 58. The guitarist, who enjoyed stints with THIN LIZZY and the first SKID ROW, was one of the most influential ever and will be sorely missed. Among the names that were directly influenced by his incredible playing are Adrian Smith, Randy Rhoads, John Sykes, Kirk Hammett, and Gus G.
No word yet on the cause of death. TMD salutes one of Rock’s all-time greats!
