Blues Alive is a live album by Northern Irish guitarist Gary Moore, released in May 1993.[3] It is a collection of recordings taken from his 1992 tour and draws most of its material from Moore's then-recent Still Got the Blues and After Hours albums. It was by far the most successful of all his live albums, reaching number 8 on the UK Albums Chart and being certified Gold. Its release was preceded by the single "Parisienne Walkways" (live).
