461. Gary Moore / Grinding Stone. 1973. 2/5

This is close enough to the point where Gary Moore started out, and it shows. Slow and wistful, written for a different audience and different era. It’s interesting to listen to, if only because you can see the differences between this era, into his rock era, and then into his blues era.
This collection of songs is not overly bad, but they just offer so little when you are listening to them. Your immediate urge is to skip to the next track. Within a minute, you’ve reached the end of the album. Not a great recommendation.

Rating: The music probably doesn’t deserve this low a rating, but when you’ve got nothing to offer, what do you expect? 2/5.
