Shortly before his passing in 2011, the great Gary Moore had talked with Don Airey about how great it would be to reform the band. Gary regarded it as the best band he had ever been in. Another if only.

Gary Moore , what a player, superb tone , in your face playing as always ,every note as if it’s his last , absolutely superb,,,,,,

Saw the band a few months before or after ( showing my age as l can't remember ) this televised concert at Sussex university . Stunning musicians all especially Gary Moore who was so versatile and could go from playing Blues , Heavy Rock and as here Jazz/ Rock Fusion . Their albums are classics from this genre of music so popular in the mid to late 70's . RIP Gary and John .

Gary’s greatest moments as a guitarist were with this band…astounding.
-
John Mole was my father and it is so refreshing to see him in action.

I remember taping this straight to cassette from the radio. Never saw the video till today... talk about a time warp. 42 years and still blows me away. Did not know it was Gary Wright on lead guitar... he made it look so easy. It was a great time to grow up in Blighty. Now retired in the US. Thank you Utube. Oops edit that Gary Moore. My bad. Gary Wright was the Dreamweaver. Told you I was getting old.

RIP John Hiseman. Thank you for good music.
-
Always thought that this was Gary's finest moments and where his heart really was.....was lucky to see this band live and it was mind blowing!!!!!! RIP Gary and Jon X
-
Don Airey has played with countless legends...
-
Yet another of Gary's great talents: Being able to play fusion while still moving around and posing like he's putting on a rock show, as opposed to other fusion players who wore the guitar under their chins and stared at their hands while standing there like mummies.

this was an amazing time for music sight and sound in concert rock goes to college ogwt never will be repeated
-
I remember seeing the band live around this time period and they were simply incredible! This was the golden age of Rock, Prog and Jazz rock with real talent in bucket loads. Sadly gone forever never to come again as todays so called 'musicians' don't have anywhere near this level of virtuosity to even attempt it!
-
Gary had the most amazing chops....of anyone....anyone....saw this band and he loved every second....this WAS Gary Moore!!!! RIP
-
Jon Hiseman is one of the greatest Drummer all Time
-
Is there anything Gary Moore can't play? He must have been born great, because he looks very young here and he's outstanding! Also, a shout out to Don Airey, he must have played in every good rock band in the 80's and 90's. He is everywhere!
-
One of the greatest jazz-rock band ever...some of the greatest musicians ever. Frightning musicianship.
-
RIP Jon Hiseman -one of the best.
-
Saw em at reading around this time, fucking amazing, loved em from the first listen, like the other guys said Moore looks happiest doing this, musicianship of the highest standard, all I can say is thank you to the band for countless hours of blissful listening, big up respec , hoghead 10-19

I knew Gary Moore was great at pentatonic blues-based stuff. I had no idea he was also this good at chord-scale fusion. Now that he's gone, I can't help but feel he should have had more recognition.

Rest in Peace Jon Hiseman.
