Gary Moore • Back To The Blues



Review by Hal Horowitz:
Six years after his successful tribute to Peter Green, Gary Moore follows with another solid electric blues-rock effort that falls squarely in line with his similarly themed albums Still Got the Blues, After Hours, and Blues Alive. Although he adds brass on a rollicking version of B.B. King's "You Upset Me Baby," Moore predominantly sticks to the basics here, pounding out energetic and full-bodied blues-rock and leading a stripped-down trio with a journeyman's enthusiasm and his trademark thick, sustained guitar solos slashing through the proceedings. The majority of the tracks are originals, although even the best of them sound suspiciously like rewritten blues standards. "Cold Black Night" is little more than a speeded-up "Messin' With the Kid," and "Picture of the Moon" sounds awfully similar to Moore's own "Still Got the Blues." And whether the world needs yet another version of "Stormy Monday" or "I Ain't Got You" is debatable. But Moore pulls off even the most clichéd material with his phenomenal prowess; supple, identifiable vocals; and a guitar tone that effortlessly shifts from a Santana/Peter Green-styled hovering intensity to a slashing Stevie Ray Vaughan attack. While Moore isn't redefining the genre or even his own approach to it, he's adding his stamp to blues-rock with Back to the Blues. Consistently rugged, moving, and heartfelt, the album is a reminder that even without reinventing an established musical style, an artist can effectively work within its boundaries to produce a satisfying, if not quite fresh, interpretation relying solely on talent and passion.  https://www.allmusic.com/album/back-to-the-blues-mw0000625740

Reseña de Hal Horowitz:
Seis años después de su exitoso tributo a Peter Green, Gary Moore sigue con otro sólido esfuerzo de blues-rock eléctrico que está en línea con sus álbumes de temática similar Still Got the Blues, After Hours y Blues Alive. Aunque añade metales en una versión de "You Upset Me Baby" de B.B. King, Moore se ciñe principalmente a lo básico, tocando un blues-rock enérgico y con cuerpo, y dirigiendo un trío despojado con el entusiasmo de un experto y sus característicos solos de guitarra gruesos y sostenidos. La mayoría de los temas son originales, aunque incluso los mejores suenan sospechosamente como estándares de blues reescritos. "Cold Black Night" es poco más que un "Messin' With the Kid" acelerado, y "Picture of the Moon" suena terriblemente similar al propio "Still Got the Blues" de Moore. Y es discutible si el mundo necesita otra versión de "Stormy Monday" o "I Ain't Got You". Pero Moore saca adelante incluso el material más tópico con su fenomenal destreza, una voz flexible e identificable y un tono de guitarra que pasa sin esfuerzo de una intensidad flotante al estilo de Santana/Peter Green a un ataque de Stevie Ray Vaughan. Aunque Moore no está redefiniendo el género, ni siquiera su propio enfoque del mismo, está añadiendo su sello al blues-rock con Back to the Blues. Consistentemente robusto, conmovedor y sincero, el álbum es un recordatorio de que incluso sin reinventar un estilo musical establecido, un artista puede trabajar eficazmente dentro de sus límites para producir una interpretación satisfactoria, aunque no del todo fresca, basándose únicamente en el talento y la pasión. https://www.allmusic.com/album/back-to-the-blues-mw0000625740
