You will get disputes, like the Alvin Lee fan, [who was great], Gallagher belongs in any dicussion about that. Rory stayed emotionally connected to his music all the way to his death. Others did not. Some, like Jeff Beck went on tremendous cerebral journeys with their music and it was marvelous. But Rory was extraspecial. Sorry I never saw him live. Here he embodies Angus Young, Chuck Berry, Peter Townsend, Hendrix and all of rock.
Possible by the greatest performance by the man that I've ever seen,I've easily had the pleasure of seeing him over 100 times,not boasting,just because he was a legend.r.i.p
@@JosephCavanagh-z8dyou jammy bugger, thought I was doing well having seen him about 20 times. I'd have exchanged them all to have been present at this performance of this song, just about the best thing I've ever witnessed. Phenomenal!!
Gather round the fire kids, going to tell you a story about a guitar mythical God who became 'as one' with his holy grail of a stratocaster guitar. If there wasn't video evidence, many would not believe someone ever existed. We were and are still blessed by Rory ❤️
No one but no one better on a live stage!!!!Rory Gallagher the modest, humble, soft spoken Irishman,that became a true guitar legend. Lucky to have seen him 3 times, pure lightning in a bottle. The celtic maestro, pure genius☘
@@jeanbrown2351 Well, a guitarist can have many talents, technicality, speed, expression, creativity...and surely Rory may not be the best on many of these but he has one talent that overcomes all that for me, it’s about being spontaneous and having feeling. He is at least, one of the bests.
Amazing... ❤ Rory's almost like a little boy here at times, just absolutely lost in the moment. And can we talk for a minute about what a MONSTER bass player Gerry McAvoy is?
Rory Gallagher. The best. Making that 61 Strat talk, sing, scream, holler. Rory turned down the Stones request to join them. Why would he? He's the best and had the best band. Masterpiece of a man, guitarist, vocalist, songwriter. RIP Rory Gallagher. I keep hearing you calling. Thanks Ireland. Big thanks to Jerry McAvoy, Rory's bass player for over 20 year.
Impossible to sit still. Even watching this makes one want to get up and dance so you can imagine what it was like to attend a Rory's Gallagher concert, full of high energy that lasted for hours.
I saw Rory Gallagher in the early 70s in Lincoln, Nebraska along with Fleetwood Mac and Deep Purple. Rory Gallagher opened up, if Deep Purple wasn't there Fleetwood probably would have played to an near empty arena. Rory and band were incredible. In his field he's the greatest rocker, no ones since has comes close. A true innovator.
I saw that same tour in '74 (Long Beach CA). I don't remember Fleetwood Mac being on the bill. (Obviously, didn't make much of an impression.) As for Deep Purple, Rory blew them off the stage. In fact, they had to halt the show (for a bit) b/c of the chants for "Rory." Privileged to have seen him twice.
Modern Myth Productions wow! would loved to have seen that show. I saw him twice at the Ulster Hall ( Belfast ) and once down in Cork at the Macroom festival.
@@drewhamillband There's a monument in Cork for him, it's a bit weird and abstract but locals know of it. It's a shrine to people who know what an underappreciated genius this lad was.
This is THREE people playing - without any back playing gimmiks - seen Rory and this real great musicians at Hamburg Musikhalle in 79 - never ever forget, made my life! //
Understand! Saw him and his band in Bremen about the same time. Was there with a friend, a professionell guitarist. After a couple of songs he said, he had to go. I wondered how that was possible and he explained me, he had seen and heard so many things he could not understand, he had to go to the rehearsal room to try to find out, what Rory had done with his instrument. Lucky me am no guitarist - stayed until the end, impressed as never.
You're right,first time I saw this brilliant band was '74 and Rod De Ath was still playing and Lou Martin had just joined for the Blueprint tour.Proud of shaking Rory's hand in 1980....he was a lovely,humble human being.Take care pal,
The bass player, Gerry McAvoy, plays at the Rory Gallagher international tribute festival in Ballyshannon (the place of Rory's birth) every year. It take place on the June bank holiday weekend and it's the best music festival ever. Brilliant atmosphere. Brilliant music and wonderfully friendly people in Ballyshannon.
The fucking IRISH HURRICANE lads,unlike most,you were damn fortunate folks if this monster of a force blew threw your town back in the good days! If you see my pops up there RORY ,shake his hand and THANK HIM for introducing me to you and other virtuosos when I was five !!!! Long live RORY GALLAGHER!!!!
Incredible recording. The bass sounds amazing with the drums, and Rory's guitar is coming thru with aggression and power. Wow! Thanks for posting this gem.
Pourquoi les meilleurs partent toujours trop tôt? Pourquoi faut-il que cet homme si généreux soit mort? Il donne une leçon à tout les guitaristes prétentieux. C’est le patron. Personne ne l’a égalé. La puissance musicale des Irlandais, une Fender et un Marshall. Dieu sur scène.
Rory Gallagher was a true legend and a role model for musicians like slash of GNR!I had the privilege of seeing him in 1979 with Jeff Beck in LA what a show R.I.P. Rory
I'm so bored reading that...Repeating a lie thousands of times doesn't make it the truth. I do love Rory but there's absolutely no proof of that supposed Hendrix word. (And anyway who gives a f*ck of ranking musicians)
I swear by the names of the Scottish gods and the dark Lords in Hell he is better then Eric Clapton Jeff Beck Jimmy Page or even SRV 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌹this guitar genius will sit on the right hand of the Father in heaven 🎸 and took over Lucifer as the chief worship Angel forever n ever Amen
Rory Gallagher.... he must be the ultimate unsung guitar hero... We recognise many false Gods... this guy could not be more mortal, but loved so much by so many for the loveable down to earth genius that he was... l love him. R.I.P.
Bassist is also a Great rocker. He feel music. Love him. While Srv was a dynamit that a double troubles was a backing band or something This bassist rule
I could tell you many stories about going to Rory Gallagher gigs and meeting the great man but it would take me all night. There was no other like our man Rory, God gave him rare gifts that he shared with everyone who was luck to see him and his band in action. When you have some spare time click on to UA-cam and watch this human hurricane in action, The Master Musician Rory Gallagher and his boys going to town at full speed. There never was/is and never will be anyone like the great Rory. I was told he plays most nights with Phil Lynott, Garry Moore , Tom Pretty, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix and John Bonham down in the Kingdom Hall. The place is allway packed to the rafters with Jesus up on the balcony dancing with delight, Jesus claims to have the best band in the universe
I was there !!! I was 20 ! the most powerful concert I saw in my life. Rory had a great energy on stage. I saw him many times in concert and he was always the same. We tried to do the same with my band :-) but it was not the same !! of course. We have great memories with my friends ! thanks Rory for ever !
Love this video…. I’ve heard of Rory but it wasn’t til a few years ago I really listened to his stuff. Regardless of his phenomenal playing he’s one of those guys who you gotta see live. I get goose bumps from the sheer energy he brings. Blue jeans, a flannel, a beat up 61 strat was all the man needed to electrify a house of 200 or 20,000 He may never have topped the charts or made millions but this rock and roll purist is reassurance that rock and roll will indeed never die. Besides who can say “thanks but Im good” when offered a job as a Rolling Stone”….Fu@in Legend!!
saw Rory in 1973 opening up for Deep Purple who were peaking at that time. Rory and band blew the roof off the place driving the crowd into a frenzy chanting his name after doing 2 encores and making it difficult for DP that night. before the show i didn't know who he was, the next day i bought everything he made and was a fan for life.
J'ai eu la chance d'assister à l'un de ses concerts promotionnels pour l'album Top priority et depuis "follow me"est devenu mon hymne national. C'était en février 1980 au Palais des sports d'Orléans. Incroyable showman il restera à jamais le plus merveilleux concert de mon humble vie
What a dynamic performance!! It never ceases to amaze me how Rory, a shy, polite, humble soul completely transforms into this hurricane we see on stage. This is fabulous, thanks so much. RIP Rory.
That was weak for Rory. He simply played Am, F, G over and over through a phaser pedal. I can teach you to do that in a few minutes and you can play it all day long if you want to
What a man; I'm completely speechless. A living guitar on stage. And what a rhytm section: Gerry McAvoy a very underrated bassplayer; in my opinion equal to John Paul Jones and Geezer Butler. Not to forget a concentrated and dedicated scotsman on drums; Ted McKenna. Amazing clip; thank You.
Captivating I have only heard of Rory Gallagher not heard or seen him play till now sadly no longer with us but gladly I can still see him on video wonderful ❣️ musician. Great rocker
Power Blues Rock performed by a powerhouse,what a sound!.Real musicians,not like they try to pass off as talent today.Gerry's bass sure drives that beat.Gerry is still playing ,check out Band of Friends,a Rory tribute outfit playing purely Rory.
Brilliant! No other word for it... Sheer brilliance! Rory never made it big in the U.S. but he is a guitar legend - a god in his own country (Ireland). Man, I sure would have loved to see him perform live. RIP Rory 🙏🙏🙏
Saw Rory at an outdoor fest in us in 72 or 73 n blew me away and followed him since. Very humble down to earth man and one of the lesser, unknown, unappreciated, greatest guitar ever. The real and raw rock n roll legend. RIP my friend!!
Could that have been 'Bull Island' in Indiana just across the Ohio River? That's where I first saw him at a 3 day "Soda Pop Festival" around the same time period.
ok, hotshot - playing with one of the best guitarists in the world (which I agree with), doesn't say anything about the bassist - only that he was adequate, nothing more - enough backing for Rory, doesn't mean that 3 note Gerry was any good beyond the basics. Instead of exchanging insults with me, perhaps you could learn something - try these links and see Rory playing with someone who can actually play a bass - and fretless, at that. ua-cam.com/video/DXk--eL5-kQ/v-deo.html - ua-cam.com/video/kX4s49NF-vk/v-deo.html - ua-cam.com/video/7DVYA6hTRbg/v-deo.html If you don't appreciate that, then there's no hope - it's totally out of 3 note Gerry's league. Hope you enjoy
Rory was one of our heros when our schoolband is startin at 1978! One of the first coversongs was „Shadow Play“ and we cried when we were able to do this Song! What a time in Life - thanks Rory for the Motivation you have given to so many musician all over the planet and we will never forget you !
I'm in tears everytime I listen Roy Gallagher and this song especially, I don't know why, probably because he's still one of the greatest guitarist of all time, and surely because he reminds me my dad who offer to discover Photo Finish in 1978, I was only 11 years old. (love u dad, I miss you)
Rory Gallagher:- the undisputed best electric guitar player of all time.
Not as good as Alvin Lee/ Ten Years After
You will get disputes, like the Alvin Lee fan, [who was great], Gallagher belongs in any dicussion about that. Rory stayed emotionally connected to his music all the way to his death. Others did not. Some, like Jeff Beck went on tremendous cerebral journeys with their music and it was marvelous.

All that superior musicianship and he's so much fun to watch.

The most beautiful thing about this is that you see that the man is genuinely enjoying every second of it. You dont see passion like that anymore.

Gary Moore on another level for me but Rory IS fantastic🔥🤟
The most loyal and dedicated fan base of any guitarist. Ever.
I love you so much baby 🎸🔥🤪🤗💖🌹🔥🔥🔥
For all the people out there who never saw Rory before this vid ..Now you can say ..you saw a real man ..play true rock n roll ...
For all the people out there who never saw Rory Gallagher before this video.
Shame on you, you need to re-evaluate your choices in life. 🤔
Saw him and the band 3 times in the 70's
The man was one of the greatist guitarrist that has ever grabbed the guitar.
Him ans Stevie ray Vaughan are my favorites of all time:)
Forever!@@@this fucking world
No one but no one better on a live stage!!!!Rory Gallagher the modest, humble, soft spoken Irishman,that became a true guitar legend. Lucky to have seen him 3 times, pure lightning in a bottle. The celtic maestro, pure genius☘
That's what's sad. The bottle took him from us 😪
que envidia siento de ti por haberlo conocido...que tal fuerza en el escenario todo una estrella del rock

And he is right.
He’s a very intelligent guy!

How can anyone in they're right mind give this a thumbs down ? The man was a genius , and brilliantly backed up by Mcavoy and McKenna

Rory was a extraordinary guitarplayer.Miss him.
A guitar legend around the world. He went there. They came, they saw and were never the same again!
No band ever can touch this. None.
This is one of the most impressive performances I've ever seen
Played for the sheer joy. To me, his stage "presence" translates as bliss.

Rory,
We're headed to Ireland for the first time this week. You are in our plans for a visit. See you soon.
Sweet Baby Jesus... I can now die in peace. What a shame he never got the recognition he deserved, a religious experience
Because he chose not to sell out. He stayed true to himself. His backing band is phenomenal.
Incredible recording. The bass sounds amazing with the drums, and Rory's guitar is coming thru with aggression and power. Wow! Thanks for posting this gem.

ok, hotshot - playing with one of the best guitarists in the world (which I agree with), doesn't say anything about the bassist - only that he was adequate, nothing more - enough backing for Rory, doesn't mean that 3 note Gerry was any good beyond the basics.

I am in Love with this Genius. Still. Sad, he ist gone
This trio are just awesome. Rory is an absolute legend!
I'm in tears everytime I listen Roy Gallagher and this song especially, I don't know why, probably because he's still one of the greatest guitarist of all time, and surely because he reminds me my dad who offer to discover Photo Finish in 1978, I was only 11 years old. (love u dad, I miss you)
Mee too...can't hold my tears...god bless you Rory
He took over in 1970 where Jimi Hendrix sadly left off. There's a big void in the music scene at the moment.
this should be required viewing for anyone who thinks they know how to perform for a live audience.
So agree, but today's performers wouldn't know where to start!
Best version ever 👌
