Lockdown Lick

Lockdown Licks no. 216. “Still Got The Blues” by Gary Moore. Intro solo played on a Fender Stratocaster on neck pickup into a NUX M8 amp set to ‘superlead’ with medium reverb. Using several half and full tone bends, vibrato and a rake note near the end.

“Still Got the Blues” is the title track of the eighth solo studio album by Northern Irish guitarist Gary Moore, released in 1990. It marked a substantial change in style for Moore, who had been predominantly known for rock and hard rock music with Skid Row, Thin Lizzy, G-Force, Greg Lake and during his own extensive solo career, as well as his jazz-fusion work with Colosseum II. As indicated by its title, Still Got the Blues saw him delve into an electric blues style.
