About this album

After The War finds Gary Moore turning his late-1980s hard rock sound into one of his most forceful and ambitious statements. Released in 1989, the album blends blues-rock intensity with heavier riffing and widescreen melodicism, while its title track and Blood of Emeralds bring a clear political and emotional edge. Moore’s expressive guitar playing remains central throughout, balancing speed, tone and lyrical phrasing with a singer-songwriter’s instinct for strong hooks. The record sits firmly in the run of albums that established him as one of the most distinctive guitarists of his era, equally capable of power, feeling and restraint.
