Thanks for all the comments! Just a note - I know that the quality could be way better. I made this on my phone on a Sunday afternoon with no microphone or any special equipment (or any clue about how to make a video!), so it's a bit rough around the edges and I'd be sure to do it differently if I'd known how many people would enjoy it! But thanks for all the kind words and I'm glad that people like the video. :)
I have to admit that I would love to visit Ireland one day because I'm enchanted by beauty of the country, but it would be also absolutely incredible to see places related to Rory Gallagher's life, because he is my favorite guitar player and I respect and admire him greatly. This video tour is for now probably the closest that I will get to strolling through the streets of Cork, so thank you! 😊
Brilliant tribute to Rory I made a trip to Cork City a few years ago to pay my respect to Rory we spent three days in Cork visited all the famous Rory places and finished our trip with a visit to Rorys grave great memories i like many fans miss Rory very much without doubt he is the greatest guitar player there has ever been rip Rory
Lovely documentary! Sadly, I doubt I'll ever make it to Ireland but, it's GREAT to see your greatest blues/folk/rock/jazz (etc. etc.) musician is well-remembered. G'bless Ireland ♡
Nice video, thanks 😊 Rory was the first gig I ever went to in '73 and I still have the 90p ticket. Such a shame Crowley's music shop has gone. One time we were in Cork I had to buy some strings from there. We've been to his grave several times... very sad. I met Donal Gallagher and Tom O'Driscoll once, really nice guys :-)
Thank You for the great video and information. I am a very big fan of the late guitarist. I myself am a guitarist. Hoping someday to visit and take in the annual tribute concert.
Great video man Rory will always be missed by those who knew him and by those who loved his music, he truly was an inspiration to both the ears and the heart and we could do with more people like him.
Thank you very much for your amazing Video about Rory and his Home Town. I never saw Rory live on Stage, so I saw only a Live Video at Home and have some Discs. Rory was really on of the best Guitarist ever and his Voice was really amazing with many great Songs. I enjoyed your Trip through Cork, your sympathetic interesting comments and the beautiful impressions. I subscribed your channel because am curious about. As soon my wife is in Germany I want to Travel to Cork and want to be near the great Rory. Thanks for your Video.
This was a wonderful video. It was fascinating. I miss Rory so much as I am sure all his fans do. I always remember the little video where he walked up the hill in Cork and was interviewed when he was just starting out. I visited Cork some time ago and visited the market. I hope to go again soon and visit Rory's grave sight. I hope you will post more videos. It was fascinating. Thank you so much.
Thank you Rory it's a quite cool and energic tribute to the Irish guitar Hero like people love to call him, for me Rory Gallagher comes from the far space! He could play so many instruments with only one! He could sing with so many different voices : just incredible. I like to know thanks to you the church's clocks play 'Tatoo lady" on his death anniversary it's quite nice
Wow! What a great Video log!!! Very well done, Rory! I've been a fan since I was first introduced to Rory's music in the mid-70s. Tattoo was the first album I heard and I was immediately hooked. I saw Rory live no less than 5 times here in LA so I consider myself very lucky in that regard. I hope to get over to Ireland one day to visit all the cool Rory spots and pay my respects at his grave. His music meant and means so much to me! Thanks a million!
Did this walk a few years ago, doffing my cap to all the Rory sites we could identify. It was great and moving to feel the spirit of Rory still very present. Thanks for the vid! Lovely reminder:-)
I’m going back at Christmas from Australia I will definitely go to cork , daughter of the Everglades is a brilliant Rory Gallagher song♥️☘️☘️ Great video your man good on ya☘️☘️☘️
That means a lot coming from you! Amazing shop, I spent so much time there when I was starting out with guitar. Such a loss to Cork City, but never forgotten
Un énorme merci , pour ce tour de ville à Cork et cet hommage à un guitariste hors pair , showman fantastique . Rory gallagher était un guitariste virtuose , simple et oh combien attachant , ceux qui l'ont vu et entendu s'en souviennent ! Merci pour cette vidéo .
Some of the excellent Irish Tour '74 album was recorded in Cork. Stratocasters and other US guitars were still something of a rarity on this side of the pond in the early 60's; that guitar Rory bought in 1963 must have cost him a small fortune. It's interesting that Rory's life is also celebrated in Ballyshannon as well as Cork. Rory was one of the few artists to play in Northern Ireland at a time when many acts wouldn't go near the place. Some of the Irish Tour album was recorded in Belfast. What he had in abundance as well as his talent was integrity.
1:38 - Well, it was in this shop that I bought my first guitar when I came to Ireland in 2004. That music store was for me in a way... Sacred. Now I feel very strange when I just eat lunch in the same place...
Fantastic video, thanks so much. Rory seems to have been such a humble, friendly and mega talented musician/ singer / human being. Not meaning to pick but curious as to why you decided to have the shaky transport scenes between places? Bad decision Dude :) but still a great video
Awesome vid man! As a fellow Corkonian, I’m good friends with Rory’s first cousins son. Learned a couple of things in this vid that I didn’t know! Cheers and rock on bai
FYI that shaky cam is nausea-inducing. What does Gallaghers (Gastro) pub have to do with Rory aside from the name? Like I don’t think he ever went there did he? I heard his mother’s family owned one of the pubs down the street, is that true? Or did you ever see his mother’s house near Douglas Road? Nevertheless a valiant effort with the vid, good stuff.
You are correct about the pub on McCurtain Street. I could be wrong but I think the pub is still there. The Cork Arms, but don't know if it was called that back then.

Thanks for the video. I'm Brazilian and a big fan of Rory Gallagher. My dream is to travel to his hometown.
Wonderful Thank you! 👍
Discovered Rory's music recently, can't get enough. Hope to visit beautiful Cork when possible, and Rory's grave. ❤️🇨🇮 🇺🇸

Crowley's Music Shop was in Merchant's Quay before they moved to McCurtain Street. Rory bought his Strat in the Merchant's Quay shop.
The shop on Merchants Quay features in the Irish Tour 74 dvd.
Thank you so much for this video, Rory Forever!

I love this, haven't been to Cork since 87' but great memories with all of Ireland. Thanks!
Smashing. Well done that man❤️✌️👍

Have been here....to remember Rory and my friend Jerry....who grew up in Cork with Rory and Donal his " cousins "....
Thanks so much. I hope to get there one day. R.I.P.

Fantastic video, thanks so much. Rory seems to have been such a humble, friendly and mega talented musician/ singer / human being.
Not meaning to pick but curious as to why you decided to have the shaky transport scenes between places? Bad decision Dude :) but still a great video
Because it was the first video like this that I made, and I had no idea what I was doing. I didn't even have a microphone 😜
@@Novaera89 you did a great job all the same 🤣 We love Rory in Australia 🇦🇺
Great video Rory, lovely seeing the streets that influenced Rory - maybe another vlog about his icon pictures and if they were taken locally :)
Thanks, and again apologies for the poor quality! Love Donegal, can't wait to get back soon. I have family in Carrigans
Damn, I would have loved to connect with you when I was in Cork! California girl who went to Ireland and did my own Rory tour in 2021!!! Huge fan!
Great video, well done...!!!
Oh how cool ringing out tattoo lady!
Awesome tour! Travelled to Cork a few years ago and wish I knew of all these sites; will have to go back now
Thank you
Great vid thanks
Cool video man 👍🏻 👍🏻
Awesome vid man! As a fellow Corkonian, I’m good friends with Rory’s first cousins son. Learned a couple of things in this vid that I didn’t know! Cheers and rock on bai
Very interesting, thanks
When you were in Gallagher pub you should have went just across the intersection to Leitrun street where the Cavern was, it's now a hotel
Class, only went up Shandon Bells myself last week
Love it! Can I ask which version of Shadow Play you're using in the video?
Lovely vid. Too short and clipped . Needs a longer in depth trip . Thanks
Thanks for this great tour !! What’s the house where he lived in Cork !? Does it still existed !?
FYI that shaky cam is nausea-inducing.
What does Gallaghers (Gastro) pub have to do with Rory aside from the name? Like I don’t think he ever went there did he?
I heard his mother’s family owned one of the pubs down the street, is that true?
Or did you ever see his mother’s house near Douglas Road?
Nevertheless a valiant effort with the vid, good stuff.

Hello Rory. An interesting and informative video, good work sir. 👍
Good man boi👍
