The 58-year-old, originally from Belfast, was found dead in a hotel room on the Costa del Sol.
Thin Lizzy founding member Brian Downey paid tribute to his friend.
"I am in total shock," he said. "He will always be in my thoughts and prayers and I just can't believe he is gone."
Moore had a successful solo career but it was for his time in Thin Lizzy that he will be best remembered.
He joined the band in 1973 after the sudden departure of guitarist Eric Bell but only played with them for four months.
Four years later he returned and went on to play on the band's Black Rose album.
Thin Lizzy guitarist Scott Gorham said it been a pleasure to share a stage with him.
"Playing with Gary during the Black Rose era was a great experience, he was a great player and a great guy," he said.
"I will miss him."
Niles Stokes, editor of Hot Press music magazine, had known Moore for almost 50 years. He said: "He was a phenomenally good guitarist after starting in the music industry at the age of about 15. Not only did he have success with Thin Lizzie but he had a successful solo career. His contribution to the Irish rock cannon was immense."
Thin Lizzy's frontman Phil Lynnot died in 1986.
The band reformed at various times since then and continue to tour today.
Moore played with some of his former bandmates in 2006.

Acknowledging Gary Moore's awesomeness is not ignoring John Sykes' awesomeness. |
|
|
Agreed, but John Skyes is feeling forgotten. |

John Sykes was an over-playing ego tripper on that album. He RUINED 'The Sun Goes Down' |

totally agreed, used to love T&L but as time passed I found only a few songs on it that appeal to me (Holy War). Dont get me wrong I love Sykes work in Tigers and Whitesnake, but youre right he over plays, it aint anything like the Gorham/Moore Thin Lizzy. Give me Bad Rep, Black Rose, Chinatown, or Renegade!! |

Snowy White plays on Chinatown & Renegade; Bad Rep is Gorham/Robertson. Gary Moore is not on any of those |
