GARY MOORE
The third full-length solo studio album by legendary British guitarist and singer.
"Dirty Fingers" album was originally recorded in 1980, but was ultimately shelved in favour of the more radio-oriented "G-Force" (1980) – the only studio album by the namesake Irish-American band led by Gary Moore. Three of the tracks from "Dirty Fingers" ("Nuclear Attack", "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" and "Run to Your Mama") were firstly released as an "Nuclear Attack" EP in UK and Japan in 1981. The album "Dirty Fingers" was eventually released in Japan in 1983 by Jet Records, before an international release in the UK in June 1984.
"Dirty Fingers" are generally characterized by a raw, uncompromising Hard Rock aesthetic. As such, tough, virile rockers invariably slathered in frenetic six-string fretwork abound ("Hiroshima", "Kidnapped", "Lonely Night") but, with the exception of the unapologetically nasty "Run to Your Mama", these tend to fall well short of the material heard on 1978's "Back On The Streets" and its "official" successor, "Corridors Of Power", four years later. But there is at least one other career highlight to be found on "Dirty Fingers", and that's the bombastic "Nuclear Attack" (yet another of Moore's apocalyptic warnings), which, amid massive riffs that keep it Rocking like a motherf**ker, unveils a simple but effective counterpoint synthesizer theme that one could very well assume inspired Europe to write "The Final Countdown". Also know that most of the above find Moore sharing lead vocals with former Ted Nugent singer Charlie Huhn for the first and final time, and you'll have all you need to know about "Dirty Fingers" – an interesting but not essential Gary Moore album.
