Gary Moore, performing the Freddie King instrumental classic, "The Stumble," and with pretty much a minimum of shredding. Actually, Gary's playing is fantastic. Albert King performs Elmore James' classic, "The Sky is Crying." Rich, full vocals and searing tone on his guitar. Great, classic blues licks - smooth as molasses. He creates such compelling solos - great spontaneous compositions. Fine bass solo, as well, with a very tight band.
