Bio:
Vincent "Vinnie" Moore (born April 14, 1964) is an American guitarist and a member of the English hard rock band UFO.Moore is one of the most influential and important guitarists to emerge from the virtuoso boom in the mid to late eighties.Moore was born in New Castle, Delaware, only a couple miles from fellow musicians George Thorogood (and The Delaware Destroyers). He began his professional career at age 12 and played clubs and bars until Shrapnel executive Mike Varney discovered him via a demo and bio that Vinnie submitted to the Spotlight column, which Varney headed for Guitar Player Magazine. His connection to Varney led to an opportunity to appear in a Pepsi commercial in 1985,(only Vinnie's hands appeared in the commercial as his guitar playing is heard.Following this, Moore recorded his first solo album, Mind's Eye (1986), released on Shrapnel Records and featured Tony MacAlpine on keyboards. The album received several awards from guitar magazines and sold over 100,000 copies.Vinnie Moore played lead guitar with the heavy metal band Vicious Rumors on their debut album, Soldiers of the Night (1985). The album features Moore's solo-song "Invader", which was in the style of Van Halen's "Eruption". The shred guitar craze of the late eighties led to more releases for Shrapnel.[citation needed] Moore also began performing with other hard rock and heavy metal bands.Moore joined Alice Cooper's band for a tour and then appeared on the Hey Stoopid (1991) album.Moore released two instructional videos on guitar playing.Moore has been the lead guitarist for UFO since June 2003, releasing his first studio album with them You Are Here the following year in 2004. This has been followed by The Monkey Puzzle (2006), The Visitor (2009), Seven Deadly (2012) and A Conspiracy of Stars (2015).On August 5, 2013, Moore joined the stage to perform live with Peter Frampton on Frampton's Guitar Circus concert at Musikfest in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.Moore is playing guitar on Red Zone Rider's debut album Red Zone Rider released September 16, 2014.
Album:
Japan edition with 2 bonus tracks.Vinnie Moore burst onto the music scene in the late '80s as one of the purveyors of neo-classical fusion. Vinnie has successfully morphed his style away from neo-classical fusion in a more rock-oriented direction. Released in 1996, but recorded in 1994, the variety and competent performances make you wonder why this guy couldn't find anyone to distribute his music. Although his music has become more rock-oriented, the fact that his music has become more universal is a certain strength lacking in his earlier releases.The disc starts in a solid manner with the energetic "With The Flow" but without resorting to the bombastic style of his previous disc. "Echoes" and "Time Traveler" are stellar tracks. Vinnie repeats his style from "Meltdown" on "770 Days," but when you're talented it's easy to forgive. Always balancing superb technical innovation with a strong sense of melody, "Out Of Nowhere" is great listening. The only weak track is a ditty called "VinMan's Brew" which finds Vinnie straying too far into territory that has been done a thousand times elsewhere by other artists.Vinnie is supported by Brian Tichy on drums and Dorian Heartsong on bass.Vinnie produces himself on this record. One can argue about artists producing themselves and having the results be less than stellar, but Vinnie's production is a means to an end - what you hear in the final product is exactly the way he intends it to be - not some producer's twist.Written and produced by Vinnie Moore (with production assistance from engineer Paul Hammingson), "Out Of Nowhere" is the guitarist's fourth CD and continues the hard rock sound found on "Meltdown" This time Moore included two acoustic songs as well as riff-a-plenty tunage such as "Time Traveler", "770 Days" and "Losing Faith". Recorded at Kajem Studios just outside Philadelphia (with additional work done at Moore's new home studio), the album, once again all instrumental, travels the outer limits of song writing. From the crushing opening riff of "With The Flow", to the smooth, almost angelic styling of "Echoes", to the all-out jam of "Thunderball" and his twang thang, "VinMan's Brew", the album plays like an old friend. Propelled by a powerful compositional framework that is second to none, "Out Of Nowhere" is lifted by Moore's unique understanding of harmonic expression. A lively and emotive balance to his technical mastery, songs like "From Now On", "She's Only Sleeping", and "Winter Sun" showcase the player's sensitivity and skill. The results are inviting.
