Back On The Streets - Brian Ireland

Over a decade after his untimely death, Gary Moore remains something of an enigma. A private, sometimes troubled man, he nevertheless chose a profession that exposed him to public scrutiny. Moore remained secretive about most aspects of his private life. This biography focuses on Moore's public life: after all, music was his chosen mode of expression. Yet, it seems clear that at least some consideration of his private life is required when that approach leads to deeper and broader understanding of his music. This dual, balanced approach will provide relevant narrative context, as well as uncover hidden motivations and meaning.
