The Neil Carter Homepage

• Wild Horses
• Discography

We began writing for ‘Victims’ and I co wrote a couple of tracks on that, the most notable being ‘Empty Rooms’ which has served me well over the years! We began the album with Ian Paice, and I think went few a through drummers in the process; lost Neil Murray too somewhere...that album was notable for the guest appearance of Noddy Holder from Slade. ( 'About Neil' from the official "Victims Of The Future World Tour '84" tour programme, 1984)

‘Run for Cover’ saw the beginning of the real success aided by Gary’s hit single with Phil Lynott, ‘Out in the Fields’. Gary seemed to then get the attention he deserved and we all benefited as a result. ‘Empty Rooms’ was re-recorded and given a full ‘production’ by Peter Collins and did well everywhere. I always joke that song has bought my house, but I suppose it probably has over the years! We made quite a few TV appearances, ‘Top of the Pops’ and ‘The Old Grey Whistle Test’ being the most notable at the time, and went on a world tour. Japan was a big market and Scandinavia had taken Gary to its’ heart. I have very fond memories of those tours.

( 'About Neil' from the official "Live in '85" tour programme, 1985)

It was also at this time we played large festivals with Queen in Germany and Sweden. Queen were one of my major influences and to play on the same bill as them was quite the highlight of my career.

( 'Question/Answer' from the official "Wild Frontier - The Tour" book, 1987)

( 'About Neil' from the official "After The War" tour programme, 1989)

During the tour a lot of sound checks featured ‘blues jamathons’ which I never really took much part in and I think through these, and some coercion from Bob Daisley, Gary formulated the idea to do his blues album. On reflection he did need to do something new as there are only so many Irish reels you can play before it starts sounding a bit clichéd! So the tour ended in Edinburgh in May 1989 and that was the last time I was to play with Gary onstage.....

************

But...in October of 2009 Gary, who I had renewed contact with when he moved to Brighton, came to me with an idea. He wanted to do a Celtic Rock album and tour with a new band playing the rock 'hits'. And was I interested...? I had always said firmly I would never 'go back' but he caught me on a bad day at school and I said 'why not?'!

I had my doubts on a couple of levels; mainly whether I could still sing, and if I would be able at my age to remember a set of material. I have read the 'dots' exclusively for 20 years!  But we got together and it sort of clicked back into place immediately which was something of a relief. Rehearsals followed with Jonathan Noyce and Darrin Mooney on bass and drums respectively. It was an excellent band and the songs sounded very fresh, Gary had a few new songs and we did the two blues 'hits' for good measure. I walked out onstage with Gary, almost 21 years to the final gig in 1989, at Trondheim and the years fell just away. It was a teriffic feeling and as natural as anything. I found it interesting mainly because I have changed so much in the years in between and I viewed it from a totally different perspective. Dates in the summer followed and a tour of the Ukraine and Russia with our final gig in Moscow in late October 2010.

I still had commitments to school and my examining work but I managed just about to juggle things. I stopped short of abandoning my other work completely, mainly because I truly loved it and was reluctant to let it go.

Plans were underway for an album, and more dates were booked, when tragically Gary passed away in Spain on 6th February 2011. Words cannot express the shock, and it will take a long time to come to terms with.

Gary Moore of official video shining emerald was revived in the world’s best quality! This work, the official video “LIVE IN STOCKHOLM: WILD FRONTIER TOUR” which was reprinted. Became the current master, “LIVE AT THE SAN FRANCISCO CIVIC” mania “SUMMERTIME GIRLS & ALL AMERICAN BOYS,” who provided the other day Y & T had been treasured VHS. Unfortunately, this work worldwide without laser disc is released the Japanese version of the VHS also did not go out. Only mania that was checking eagerly imported video that you can have the treasure video of that view. Was a previous Y & T also unusual about great state of preservation, is terrific also this time. Only in the United States version of the import video, resolution is not as much as various work has been reprinted from the laser disk, in spite of the magnetic tape, twisted also tracking noise without, and tongue to save state also was sleeping quietly 28 years my wound. Dressed in PV even familiar black costume of the “Wild Frontier” gallant Gary of “WILD FRONTIER TOUR” unique is I revives vividly. What surprises, sound any more. To vivid screen, sound is very sophisticated, when coupled with carefully Gary and modest cheer mix that Komu play not in, as drawn and Guigui to play. Normally, but I not amusing even if there is a deterioration, even if not to play if Haitai nearly ’30, beautiful sound of a slight distortion of the sound without any long tone is poured into the ear. Though it is a I a full CD level sound as if they were recorded digitally. 1987 awards to revive its quality is exactly a rarity. Unfortunately, but is not a full recording of the show, Rashiku official (?) Has been narrowed down the focus of editing, a short while also image is as clear. Its image is, frankly Irish Kaori High “WILD FRONTIER of the world”. The cut has been in the four songs of older movies such as “Shapes Of Things,” “Murder In The Skies”, “Victims Of The Future” Wishing Well “, the adopted are the two works of” RUN FOR COVER, “” WILD FRONTIER ” center. Its “RUN FOR COVER” also, “Military Man”, “Out In The Fields” has been firmly bereaved in the footsteps of Phil Lynott such. Because there is going at stake is dedicated to Phil “WILD FRONTIER”, it it’s a stage that is out spill soliciting is thought to Emerald Island to the other, “EMERALD AISLES” or more. Its beauty is, or probably because Kano lords Edition “WILD FRONTIER” or more to permeates the will, there is a heat of live performance unique. Unlike was using a drum machine “WILD FRONTIER”, here sitting on the familiar Eric Singer is stool in KISS, Bob Daisley also will decide one after another of his unique phrase (By the way, this two men BLACK SABBATH name board of is “THE ETERNAL IDOL” rhythm Corps). Daimyo Edition “WILD FRONTIER” includes, but is told and is “…… if you do not ‘s drum machine” with its splendor, it is spread become a reality! The run through the raw beat “Thunder Rising”, hot passion is play “Wild Frontier”, “RUN FOR COVER” in “All Messed Up” is also uplifting to exceed much the studio version. Any song, I unbearable breathing sense of raw rhythm that response freely in Gary emotional leave of playing down and carefree long tone. For information led to “The Loner” it is stretched long long, hot and if you can whether fancy playing in the face, pull to slip in plucked lightly, the explosion in the drama tee sheet rhythm fully open raw band unique. Buttoi choking, of course, to defeat crying crying crying in machine gun fire …… another, another, Tsu anymore! …… We rude. In this work, further at the time of the promotional video also three songs bonus included. This is also in a very beautiful image quality and sound quality, clearly until Song Title ticker to say it’s PV of the analog era. MTV is a delicious bonus that can be watched together the figure of Gary went cut in a unique Irish image on a large prime of visual era.

Rock, fusion, blues, drum & bass …… era Show me a variety of face with age, Gary Moore who have the not all in the hear the best of the guitar. However, speaking of music that can not be to everyone except him, place the “Irish melody of HR” It is not in the other. His his last was trying Kaero, Emerald of music. This work, the official video of matches and the live, this one was revived and with all possible means. Daimyo Edition “WILD FRONTIER” live version of the world. By all means, please enjoy the world’s best quality.

エメラルドに輝くゲイリー・ムーアのオフィシャル映像が世界最高峰クオリティで蘇りました！　本作は、公式映像「LIVE IN STOCKHOLM: WILD FRONTIER TOUR」を復刻したもの。今回のマスターとなったのは、先日Y&Tの「LIVE AT THE SAN FRANCISCO CIVIC」「SUMMERTIME GIRLS & ALL AMERICAN BOYS」を提供してくれたマニアが秘蔵していたVHS。残念ながら、この作品は世界的にレーザーディスクがリリースされず、日本版VHSも出ませんでした。輸入ビデオを熱心にチェックしていたマニアだけが見ることのできたお宝映像なのです。前回のY&Tも異常なほど素晴らしい保存状態でしたが、今回も凄まじい。アメリカ版の輸入ビデオだけに、解像度はレーザーディスクから復刻してきた諸作ほどではありませんが、磁気テープにも関わらず、ヨレもトラッキングノイズもなく、28年間も静かに眠っていた保存状態には舌を巻く。「Wild Frontier」のPVでもお馴染みの黒い衣装に身を包んだ“WILD FRONTIER TOUR”ならではの凛々しいゲイリーが鮮やかに蘇るのです。 それ以上に驚きなのは、サウンド。生々しい画面に対して、サウンドは非常に洗練されており、いつになく丁寧に弾き込むゲイリーや控えめな歓声ミックスと相まって、演奏にグイグイと引き込まれるよう。普通は30年近くも経てば再生していなくても劣化があってもおかしくないのですが、わずかな音の歪みもなくロングトーンの美しい響きが耳に流し込まれる。まるでデジタルで記録されているかのように完全なCDレベルのサウンドなのです。 そのクオリティで蘇る1987年のショウは、まさに絶品。残念ながら、ショウのフル収録ではないのですが、オフィシャルらしく（？）編集の焦点が絞り込まれており、短いながらもイメージがハッキリとしている。そのイメージは、ずばりアイルランドの薫り高き“WILD FRONTIERの世界”。カットされたのは「Shapes Of Things」「Murder In The Skies」「Victims Of The Future」Wishing Well」といった旧作の４曲で、採用されたのは「RUN FOR COVER」「WILD FRONTIER」の２作が中心。その「RUN FOR COVER」も、「Military Man」「Out In The Fields」といったフィル・ライノットの足跡をしっかりと遺されている。そこにフィルへ捧げた「WILD FRONTIER」が絡んでいくのですから、それはそれはもう「EMERALD AISLES」以上にエメラルドの島への想いが募ってこぼれ出すステージなのです。 その美しさが、かの大名盤「WILD FRONTIER」以上に染みるのは、生演奏ならではの熱さがあるからでしょうか。ドラムマシンを使った「WILD FRONTIER」とは違い、ここではKISSでお馴染みのエリック・シンガーがスツールに座り、ボブ・デイズリーも彼ならではのフレーズを次々とキメていく（ちなみに、この２人はBLACK SABBATHの名盤「THE ETERNAL IDOL」のリズム隊です）。大名盤「WILD FRONTIER」は、その素晴らしさと共に「ドラムマシンじゃなかったら……」と語られますが、それが現実のものとなって広がる！　生ビートで駆け抜ける「Thunder Rising」、熱いパッションが弾ける「Wild Frontier」、「RUN FOR COVER」の「All Messed Up」も、スタジオ・バージョンを遙かに超える躍動感。どの曲も、ゲイリーの感情任せの弾き倒しや気ままなロングトーンに自在に呼応する生リズム隊との呼吸感がたまらないのです。「The Loner」に至っては長く長く伸張され、熱く顔で弾き込んだかと思えば、軽くつま弾きでスッと引いて、生バンドならではのドラマティシズム全開で爆発。ぶっといチョーキングはもちろんのこと、マシンガン連射でも泣いて泣いて泣き倒し……もう、もう、もうっ！ ……失礼いたしました。本作では、さらに当時のプロモーションビデオも３曲ボーナス収録。これまた極めて美麗画質・音質で、アナログ時代のPVだというのに曲名テロップまでクッキリ。MTV大全盛のヴィジュアル時代に独特なアイリッシュ・イメージで切り込んでいったゲイリーの姿がまとめて観られる美味しいボーナスです。

ロック、フュージョン、ブルース、ドラムンベース……時代時代でさまざまな顔を見せてくれ、その総てで極上のギターを聴かせてくれたゲイリー・ムーア。しかし、彼以外の誰にもできない音楽と言えば、“アイリッシュ・メロディのHR”を置いて他にありません。最晩年の彼が還ろうとしていた、エメラルドの音楽。本作は、そのライヴを収めたオフィシャル映像を、可能な限りの手段を尽くして蘇らせた１本です。大名盤「WILD FRONTIER」世界の生演奏バージョン。ぜひ、世界最高峰クオリティでお楽しみください。

Vodka Museum Tour with transport (excursion only)

Lena, our guide in Moscow was excellent. She was very knowledgable and could answer any question we had for her. We liked that she could pick up on our interests and take us places we might not have thought of to go. When we realized that one of the places we had chosen to see would probably not be that interesting to us, she was able to arrange entry to the Diamond Fund and the Armoury for us. Riding the Metro with Lena was a real adventure and a lot of fun. In Saint Petersburg we found Anna well versed in the history of the Tsars and in the Hermitage collection. Arkady in Veliky Novgorod was a very good guide and answered all of our questions with ease. Novgorod was perhaps a long way to go for a day trip, but we did enjoy it. Vasily was a great driver to have and kept us safe with good humour and skill. We enjoyed ourselves so much, my daughter says she is already planning to return. We would both have no hesistation to recommend ExpresstoRussia to anyone we know.

Just wanted to let you know that My grandson Bruno and I couldn´t have been more pleased with our week in Moscow (6/15 - 6/21). We were absolutely enchanted with the whole experience, including getting lost a couple of times in the Metro during our free time. Although both our guides (both Eleanas) were excellent, I would particularly commend the first one (she took us to the Tatiakov, the KGB tour, and to that beautiful cemetery where so many great Russian artists, authors, composers, musicians, militarists, and politicians are buried). Her knowledge is encyclopedic; and her understanding of today´s Russia as a product of its past was, for us, truly enlightening. I will be taking another tour in Russia, with my wife, within the next two or three years. I will be in touch with you when the time comes. Meanwhile, I will refer you to other potential visitors to Russia as I meet them.

Moscow Tours centering on Russian History

Moscow has a long and interesting history and has been the capital of Russia in many of its different iterations – capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow , the Russian Empire and of course the Soviet Union (who could ever forget the Soviet Union?). Moscow, was founded in the 12th century by Prince Yuri Dolgaruki (Yuri of the long arms – he really did have long arms!). From that time on, it was home to the Russian Tsars until Peter the Great moved the capital to St. Petersburg in 1703. The city has survived invasions and sieges from the Mongols, the Tartars, the Poles, Lithuanians and Napoleon but has always persevered. Our Moscow tours will enlighten you on this great history and give you insights into Muscovites and their unique culture. Our Moscow tours show you what the city is like today but also brings to life the past. Moscow never seems to sleep and is bursting with energy. A Moscow tour with Express to Russia is truly the best way of getting to know Russia’s largest and most vibrant city.

Frequently Asked Questions From Our Travelers

What is the best time to visit moscow.

Any time of year is fine depending on what you plan to do. Summertime is pleasantly warm, ideal for exploring the city and its vibrant atmosphere, but Moscow will be much busier and accommodation is more expensive. Winter can be quite cold but beautiful nonetheless, and this is unproblematic if you intend to spend most of your trip in museums and galleries. There are also various festivals and events organised throughout the year. For more information about the best time to visit, read our guide

How many days are enough in Moscow?

If you plan your itinerary strategically and aren’t averse to a packed schedule, you can cover Moscow’s main sights over a long weekend. Most popular attractions are in the city centre, and the Moscow Metro allows you to cover much ground in a small amount of time. Ensure that your accommodation is fairly central and book tickets in advance, so that you can make the most of your days. For an informative and well-organised day out, check out our Moscow day tours with options to suit all interests.

Do they speak English in Moscow?

As Russia’s capital city, tourists are well accommodated in Moscow. There should be English-speaking staff in restaurants, bars, hotels, shops and attractions in tourist hotspots, and there are also English-speaking tourist police. Transport services have English translations on their maps and English announcements via intercom; alternatively, order taxis from the Yandex Taxi app (Russian Uber), though it’s unlikely that your taxi driver will speak English. If you get stuck and cannot communicate, it’s fine to use Google Translate.

Is it safe to travel to Moscow?

It is no less safe to travel to Moscow than to any European city if you exercise common sense and look after your belongings. As with every city some regions can be more unsavoury than others, but no tourist attractions are located there. The traffic in Moscow is notorious, so exercise caution when crossing roads. Do not take unlicensed taxis; book in advance or take public transport, which is widespread and perfectly safe. If you encounter any problems, look for the special tourist police who can help you. For more information, read our guide about staying safe in Russia .
