421. Gary Moore / G-Force. 1979. 2.5/5

Very early stages of Gary Moore’s own work, and it is noticeable. Though he obviously tries hard, the songs don’t have the magic quality of his work during the 1980’s.

Apart from the excellent “White Knuckles / Rockin’ and Rollin’”, and other reasonable efforts like “You Kissed Me Sweetly” and “Dancin’” – which are both just a little too close to pop for my liking I must admit – this album doesn’t really make it. It feels like Moore is still trying to find his own niche. That came after this album.

Rating: The best was yet to come. 2.5/5
