This song chases me since years. I always felt that the song was too complicated to me and I thought of it as something sacramental I was afraid to desecrate.

Gary Moore IS one of my unattainable teachers in mind. And this song is indeed a challenge for every guitar player. The vibrato and bending technique of him is very advanced. Any slighty wrong bending is penalized immediatelly with bad sounding in this song :-(

I am playing the Outro-Solo around 85% compared to the orginal take. I watched Gary Moore on Youtube. He never played the song exactly the same. I think therefore it is okay to play some parts in "the style of him".

Old shool guitar playing is asked: using the PU-knob and the guitar volume knob is important.

EDIT: I recently did a new recording with a Soldano Amp-Model. Playing is better and the amp is even more appropriate for that Solo.

Any feedback and experiences with a song like this is welcome.
