Stand by for a visit to either 1990 (Still Got the Blues) or 1979 (Thin Lizzy's Black Rose, their only record to which he made a significant contribution) in the not too distant future. I'm betting on the former, since it's been a good three months since our last stop there.

What the hell, I'll take a leap and say "C". Clapton, perhaps?

well, but given the subject of this thread...

Yeah, it's (D) -- we've discussed many times here the irony that Moore, a White Irish guy, made the biggest-selling blues album.
