Format:Audio CD
This is a truly amazing box set. The 3 discs are divided into separate categories: Rock, Blues and Live. Although there are some duplicate tracks on Disc 3, (Parisienne Walkway and Empty Rooms for example), it doesn't matter since the live versions are an absolute must, even if it's just for the amazing guitar break in Parisenne Walkway.
Each disc can be listened to in its entirety without feeling anything is missing. But if you listen to all 3 you get a great sense of completeness. There are also a couple of great bluesy tracks with Albert King and Albert Collins.
Gary Moore's version of "Wishing Well" is even better than the original "Free" version. There's not a duff track in this box set. It's a really well-thought out collection of his work. The only thing I can think of that's missing is his version of Roy Buchanan's "The Messiah will come again", but to be truthful, I've always thought Roy's version could never be bettered.
Finally, the sound quality is way above average. In these days of poorly mastered CDs, it's quite a novelty to find a good recording!

Nicely presented CD set with good literature, it's a must for all Gary Moore fans.
The quality of the recordings is excellent (re-mastered) ~ lots of bass if you have a decent system.
If you have never listened to any Gary Moore, id definitely recommends this CD set.
Only criticism; The flip design 3 CD case is a little fragile, so just check it over ~ mine was cracked (good old Royal Mail)!

i have always loved gary moore. His guitar playing is out of this world. This is a great collection of his work, if you just want a best of, you will not go wrong with this one. Shame it did not include victims of the future, but all in all a great collection. I have never forgot seeing gary moore in 1985 on the run for cover tour, hammersmith odeon 28/9/85. To top the icing on the cake, phil lynott came out for the encore, and played out in the fields, and parisienne walkways with him. It was the one and only time that i saw phil lynott before he died, god bless him, gone but certainly not forgotten.
