    You always here about Guitar Players that do not get enough recognition, underrated when compared to the big names spoken often.
    If there ever was an underrated not spoken of enough guitar player it is this cat Rory Gallagher.
    He is as good as any player I have ever listen to.
    Rory can only be equaled not exceeded....he is that damn good!
    It does not hurt that he has one bad ass bass player in Gerry McAvoy laying it down!

      The first time I saw him was in 1972 at a three-day rock festival called Bull Island. Nobody knew who he was, but after he played, there were a few hundred thousand people who would never forget him, including me. I saw him around ten more times after that.

    I wish I could erase Rory from my memory, just to have the chance to discover his music again. It was a freezing snowy morning when I first listened to Moonchild on the radio. I had skipped my Calculus class and I was having a coffee. The owner of the coffee shop told me the name. "Oh, him? He is Rory..." I went straight to a music shop and bought "Stagestruck" because it had Moonchild on it. I'll never forget tht day in my life.

      You just revered being almost 60. Well its 11 month on and im about turning 61 in may guess same generation.
      Now what i need to tell. I was born in Germany came to holland in januari 74. I was pissed back then due to the movement to Holland but than it came on to me .the city was Geleen south of the Netherlands pk..until 86 from 69 they ve had this festival called PINKPOP
      look it up it still exists and even more.
      Due to the fact that the fest gotten bigger and bigger they moved on down south about 40kl. From my place. Fact is that Pinkpop, of which I had the chance being a part of especially thruout the 70ees.lol. man it was magic in 74 .I was just turned 13 and got a ticket from my other
      My first year.you can guess I believe still know the better acts
      One was Rory Gallagher .the place of happening was a normal bikers round up in the cities park.so stage still quite improvised ok.theres a picture on you tube with Rory playing beneath a sheed of linnen with the words
      Pinkpop 74
      Other major acts were cpt.beefheart steelers wheel and others I will never forget in those 70ees years seen all or a lot of the old bands .manfred mann with his nightingales and bombers he Spirit in the night . Thin lizzy van halen you name top bands back than 👌
      Love and light from Holland.oh yes I believe telling that Pinkpop was taken up in the 2000ers years in the guineas book of records the only festival ever kept returning ever-increasing 69

    • @lindadote
      @lindadote 6 років тому +7

      Randico Enrico Gonzalez Jr. .....nah, some of us have *always* known and loved Rory and “fame” is precisely what he steered clear of. Rory did however, tour Europe constantly and had sold in excess of 30 million albums *before* he passed away and *before* newer and renewed interest. It was the States Rory had hoped to crack but he only enjoyed a “cult” following there despite repeated tours. It’s only in recent years that his popularity has increased there but he refused to “sell out” saying he could “write a hit song but did not WANT to”, Rory was the real deal. As for the camera, yes, Rory was the obvious star, you’ll notice his fellow band members stand back, that’s why - it was Rory’s time to shine.

    Montreux Jazz Festival July 5, 1985. One of the best performances I've ever heard. Moonchild is an amazing song, and Rory Gallagher sure knows how to play the guitar. But let's not forget Gerry McAvoy. His bass playing is quite deceptive, sounds simple, but it isn't. He played with Rory for twenty years, and on this recording every note he plays is exactly what should be played. Not too much, not too little. Supertight backing for Rory with Brendan O'Neill on drums.

    Probably the bset live version of what I believe is Rory's best song. His second solo is worth all the gold and diamonds in the world, it's so fluid, fast, and full of emotion. Reminds me of some of Blackmore's epic live solos. And let's not forget gerry McAvoy's pulsing bass lines - meaty and melodic, the perfect foil for Rory's brilliance. An incredible performance.

    Had the pleasure of being pretty much front row when this exact line-up, instruments, amps etc did a show at Auckland Town Hall - roundabouts 1979... was everything to behold. Just like the video - but more personal :) Thanks for the Journey Rory.

      Couldn't agree more. I can play the Daughter Of The Everglades solo note for note, yet it still sounds like crap when I do it. Rory had that magic touch that is so rare to find...

    Gods guitar angle the very blessed Rory Gallagher, probably the greatest guitarists of all time. Who said this, I did and I am willing to bet my best suit, my clean shirt and new brogue shoes in this claim.

    I only got to see Rory three or four times live, but in small places, and he always went all out, even in a 300 seater in Huntington Beach, CA. The dude just loved playing guitar and he showed it every second of the nearly three hours he was usually on stage.
