Beginning in 1937, he worked for the then decade old Baltimore radio station WBAL-AM (1090), one of the oldest, largest and most powerful stations in the city, a " clear-channel" station whose 50,000 watts signal reached through most of the surrounding Middle Atlantic States region and most of the eastern United States at night-time hours. He hosted several daytime and prime time programs titled The Garry Moore Show, and the game shows I've Got a Secret and To Tell the Truth.Influenced by Peter Green and Eric Clapton, Moore began his career in the late 1960s when he joined Skid Row, with whom he released two albums. Moore later had a daughter, Lily (who also embarked on a career in music [79]), during a relationship with Jo Rendle. Moore also became a regular humor columnist for the local newspaper The Island Packet with a column titled "Mumble, Mumble", later releasing a book of his columns under the same name in the early 1980s.

On Corridors of Power and Victims of the Future, Moore used a 1961 Fiesta Red Fender Stratocaster, which had previously belonged to Tommy Steele. Later he used a variety of effects by T-Rex, an Ibanez TS-10 Tube Screamer Classic and a Marshall Guv'nor, the last of which was featured most notably on "Still Got the Blues". Unfortunately, this book (rightfully, IMO) portrays Gary an emotionally stunted, immature man in both his personal and professional life.

After the album 34 Hours in 1971, and tours supporting The Allman Brothers Band and Mountain amongst others, Moore decided to leave the band. While Moore acknowledged his reputation of being difficult to work with at times, he attributed this to his own perfectionism, holding others up to the same standards he set for himself.
