"I can't believe someone said Gary can't sing. I was first attracted to this album three years ago after hearing "Still Got The Blues" on the radio. I was completely taken by both his guitar and his expressive and emotional singing voice. After three years, I still almost tear up listening to him. The song "Still got the blues" alone is worth the price of this CD. Throw in "Story of the blues" and "Separate Ways" and you have a blues classic CD. I love when a really talented guitarist can express strong emotion without words. I like it even better when they have the ability to express the same emotion in their singing. Gary Moore is a master of all that; better than anyone I have ever heard. Listen carefully to any of the songs I mentioned above, and I defy you to say he doesn't express the emotion of the blues better than anyone."
Mr Moore at his very very best

"This "Blues Alive" is really a great blues album.Gary Moore is one of the best guitarists i've heard playing blues.This performance of Gary is absolutely fantastic,and "arrasadora"as we say here in Brazil.This cd contains a great adrenaline dosage and is not recomended for those that aren't in tune with the modern blues performances.The rock'n roll fans,excuse me,but Gary really plays better when he plays blues! One of the best cds of my collection!"
There isn't a bad cut on this CD

"Heard "The Sky is Crying" on the radio, found out who the artist was, immediately drove to the record store and bought the CD, hasn't left my CD player since. Gary Moore is now firmly established as one of my guitar Gods along with Steve Morse, Joe Satriani, and Trevor Rabin."
