Robert William Gary Moore (4 April 1952 – 6 February 2011) was a Northern Irish musician, most widely recognised as a singer, songwriter and virtuoso rock and blues guitarist.
In a career dating back to the 1960s, Moore played with musicians including Phil Lynott and Brian Downey during his teenage years, leading him to memberships of the Irish bands Skid Row and Thin Lizzy, and British band Colosseum II. Moore shared the stage with such blues and rock musicians as B.B. King, Albert King, Jack Bruce, Albert Collins, George Harrison and Greg Lake, as well as having a successful solo career. He guested on a number of albums recorded by high-profile musicians.
Moore grew up on Castleview Road opposite Stormont Parliament Buildings, off the Upper Newtownards Road in east Belfast, as one of five children of Bobby, a promoter, and Winnie, a housewife. He left the city as a teenager, because of troubles in his family – his parents parted a year later – just as The Troubles were starting in Northern Ireland.

The book was the winner of the 2006 Military Writer's Society of America Book of the Year.Playing with the Enemy is planned to be made into a major motion picture by Academy Award winning producer, Gerald Molen.

Rollin'
Okey, sundown
Hm, hm
You know late one evenin',
I went out to the outskirts of town
Late one evenin',
I went out to the outskirts of town
And I chose me a seatin',
Watched the evenin' sun go down
I say little girl,
You know you done broke my heart
Little girl, little girl,
You know you done broke my heart
And it's so sad to say
That the best friends have to part
You know I wake up soon in the mornin'
And I'm feelin' sick and bad
Yes, I wakes up soon in the mornin'
And I'm feelin' sick and bad
I'm thinking 'bout the good times
That I once have had
Little girl, little girl,
Your little trouble comin' home one day
Little girl, little girl,
Your little trouble comin' home one day
You're gonna be sorry
For treating poor me this way
You know people don't seem to like you
When you try to be lovin' and kind
People don't seem to like you
When you try to be lovin' and kind
One day they're comin' after you
And you'll be done change your mind
You know the blues is a weird, old heart disease
You know the blues is a weird, old heart disease
Well, it seems like you try to love somebody
And they're so hard to please
You know the sun is goin' down
Behind that old western hill
The sun is goin' down
Behind that old western hill
Well, I never practised nothin',
But I guess my little baby will
Hm-hm.
