I could agree with your statement. Every song he ever played was directly from his heart and soul. Such a vibrant incredible mountain of talent. I'm forever proselytizing trying to just get people to listen to him. One time hearing his play will convince almost anyone.
Best guitarist ever no flashy clothes pair Levi jeans,tartan shirt , those boys could play so tight McCracken and Wilson both stunning musicians , Rory vocals loud rasping ,and him such a Mild humble man ,what a mix , I miss you Rory. Maybe one day I will see you again RIP
I saw Rory 3 times, the first time when I was only 13. I'm 63 now and have seen hundreds of bands, many world renowned names. None come close to those three Gallagher gigs. Watching footage now is a mixture of ongoing awe and gut wrenching sadness. Hendrix was right when he said Rory was the best guitarist in the world. Great showman too. Once at Newcastle, the support failed to turn up and Rory played from 7.30pm till 10pm. Nothing compares!
Music producers, and movie producers should've make a biopic movie of Rory Gallagher...he was one of the best Blues player and songwriter of all time....
Hey, that's a darn good idea....the way things are at the mo ,when the industry is celebrating all kinds of un worthy artists , then maybe they'll pay attention to some Real people like Rory?....You never know !!
At this point, they were already completely at odds and on the verge of breaking up. But this was for eternity. A great moment, especially because of Rory's energy and genius. The entire performance of Taste at the 1970 Isle of Wight Festival is breathtaking.
This is a watered down version of the original video. In the original, a naked tripping girl climbs to the stage in the middle of the song. It is on YT, look for 5:23 version of this performance.
He spent a few years of his upbringing just a couple of miles away from me on the Foyle Road in Derry. His brother Donal was born here. So proud to even be a mere compatriot of the guy.
Best ever live performance live ever came across those at the back of platform could only stand And stare as Rory and taste blew all the rest away , just over 20 years old at the time amazing
Just as brilliant to see now as when I saw it live back in 1970. Rory was 22. McCracken and Wilson were also great. Such a shame managerial problems came between them.
Enjoying every magical song I hear from this Ace on the Many Color Blues....and, no.... That is not the name of one of his songs..... It is definitely complimenting this artists creative genius. Many Color Blues...

RORY EL MEJOR GUITARRISTA DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS. TU MUSICA SIGUE VIVA TE EXTRAÑAMOS MI VIEJO RORY JUNTO A HENDRIX. LOS MEJORES ..RORY TU MUSICA ESTA EN NUETROS CORAZONES Y EN EL FIRMAMENTO .. GRACIAS. X TU INMENSO LEGADO DESDE SANTIAGO DE CHILE UN FRATERNO ABRAZO HERMANAS Y HERMANOS QUE COMPARTEN EL LEGADO DE ESTE GIGANTE MUSICO ..HARE KRISHNA...
I remember when I ordered Live Taste Album import as curiousity. I was totaly surprise of Rory's lead guitar. Despite that Sugar Mama's was cut in the middle of solo at end of side A and restart on B . I did not knew that Sinner boy was played at the time of Taste, as I first listened on his 1st LP . I'm probably not wrong saying that Rory is on the top lead guitar gap on that time, unfortunatly underrated. For me, Hands up, is his best guitar solo. I remeber when i played that at high school radio loundge, someone who was playing guitar came at me asking who the hell is he? Thanks Rory for all your good music dedicated to us. R.I.P
Apart from the man (Rory) being just amazing. Tha Bass player was also "amazing". We need more of this music in our world today. God bless all you rockers who made "REAL MUSIC". Wake up people who listen to the record industry conveyor belt shit. Talent does "NOT" come from the "music industry", it comes from the "HEART".
Richard McCracken is probably the most unsung, underated bass player ever. He and John Wilson laid down one helluva foundation for Rory to pervey his magic.
Was great being at Ballyshannon where Rory was born Donegal got myself a shirt with Rory on it put away))) however he grew up in Cork great place for Folk music and the memory of Rory kept alive music is a Healer, Rip darlin xxxxxx 🥰🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇨🇦
I never heard Rory live but my Cousin Carole in Connecticut who like myself was born and raised in Fanad Co Donegal is very likely the greatly missed *†* & Country Man of our own number one Fan 🙏💔🙏
Ex- ce - Llenteeee cette performance! alors déjà... Quand j'écoute le 1er album de Rory [1971] en vinyle, je m'éclate sur Sinner Boy! J'adore ce titre!!! Vraiment bluesie rock hard rock mais la! Ce Live est juste Incroyable... Je suis toujours Bluffer quand je le regarde!! Il dechirer sur scène Rory!! 🎸en plus d'être simple, beau et avait l'air super cool! Comme quoi on a pas besoin d'avoir une voix à la Axl Rose à 4 ou 5 octaves! [Rose à une superbe voix! mais il manque quelque chose de la matière dans ses lives bon évidemment c'est plus du hard, heavy metal!] Mais la Juste quelques bons accords de bons riffs, une bonne voix, une bonne oreille musicale et t'arrive à tout! RORY nous la démontré! On voit que Rory Gallagher etait passionné de musique blues rock southern il a ecrit de bons morceaux accrocheur pour moi cest un génie du rock! J'en veux pleins d'autres de ces albums comme top priority Against the Grain, Fresh Evidence, Blueprint que jaime beaucoup franchement quel fan de Rory gallagher n'aime pas un de ses albums! Ce type était une icône! On fait beaucoup d'éloges sur certains artistes alors que nombres d'entre eux n'avaient pas autant de talent que Rory! [Je trouve!] de plus même ses vinyle sont plutôt abordable, évidemment sa dépend de la réédition remasteriser ou pas etc il me faut absolument un Live aussi! Les meilleurs artistes font les meilleurs lives! RIP Genius Of Blues rock and Southern rock ! Encore un point: Rory Gallagher avait une réel ressemblance avec l'acteur John Cusack!
It's 2024, and in my eyes and ears music as we know it is basically finished. We all bow down at the altar of artists like Taylor Swift who are surrounded by teams of song writers who produce songs by formulae, while real musical talent is dispensed with. Rory Gallagher had genius in his fingers, he should be put on a podium above the so called superstars of today and its basically a crime that he isn't. RIP Rory ,a true music icon that has never had the recognition and respect that his talent justified.
My Rory story: when he came to Evansville, Ind. I had to work my dish washing job. So missed the show. This was after the Live album came out. Never got another chance.
Gary When I saw Rory Gallagher in Christchurch New Zealand 1975 I had to scrape every coin together To get and see him I'm so pleased I made the effort
I still have no idea how Rory managed to get such a low down gritty dirty tone out of a telecaster using nothing but a Vox and a treble booster of all things
If I could only listen to one musician for the rest of my life it would be Rory ♥️♥️♥️
I could agree with your statement. Every song he ever played was directly from his heart and soul. Such a vibrant incredible mountain of talent. I'm forever proselytizing trying to just get people to listen to him. One time hearing his play will convince almost anyone.
I'm with you, never tire of Rory..🎸👌
Same with me...
I also feel that way. I have loved many musicians, thinking that I would never tire of them. I even got tired of my fav Patti Smith.
Same here💕
Best guitarist ever no flashy clothes pair Levi jeans,tartan shirt , those boys could play so tight
McCracken and Wilson both stunning musicians , Rory vocals loud rasping ,and him such a
Mild humble man ,what a mix , I miss you Rory. Maybe one day I will see you again RIP
Just discovered Rory....amazing music and passion. His live performances can't be matched by anyone.
Enjoy it it’s a journey
haa...better late ( about a bit over 50 years) than never......
35 years still discovering...🎼🎵
Make damn sure you listen to both the Live in Europe 1972 & The Irish Tour 1974 records they are pure Rory at his best. 🎸🔥
I bought his first album in 1972 check it out. Every song awesome. Still listening to it. Simply titled Rory Gallagher Live. 👍👍👍👍👍✌️🎸
I saw Rory 3 times, the first time when I was only 13. I'm 63 now and have seen hundreds of bands, many world renowned names. None come close to those three Gallagher gigs. Watching footage now is a mixture of ongoing awe and gut wrenching sadness.
Hendrix was right when he said Rory was the best guitarist in the world.
Great showman too. Once at Newcastle, the support failed to turn up and Rory played from 7.30pm till 10pm. Nothing compares!
Saw Rory twice , once in Auckland and a few years later in Sydney . The most exciting
gigs I have ever seen.
Music producers, and movie producers should've make a biopic movie of Rory Gallagher...he was one of the best Blues player and songwriter of all time....
Hey, that's a darn good idea....the way things are at the mo ,when the industry is celebrating all kinds of un worthy artists , then maybe they'll pay attention to some Real people like Rory?....You never know !!
@@huwjones1762 Yeah, glad you like my idea...
He was :-)
No Doubt one of the best, my favourite guitar player also superb vocal 👌
Truth
It Don't Get No Better Than Rory Gallagher!!! RIP !!!
At this point, they were already completely at odds and on the verge of breaking up. But this was for eternity. A great moment, especially because of Rory's energy and genius. The entire performance of Taste at the 1970 Isle of Wight Festival is breathtaking.

I LOVE this great Irish guitar genius. Humble genius.
He spent a few years of his upbringing just a couple of miles away from me on the Foyle Road in Derry. His brother Donal was born here. So proud to even be a mere compatriot of the guy.
He lived in Derry ? Never knew that.
Dobar covjek dobra muzika volio sam ga ko brata
One of the greatest 🎸 players to ever live! RIP Rory.
Rip RORY gallagher, you inspired me as a 6 year old to play guitar, fan 4 life

Best ever live performance live ever came across those at the back of platform could only stand
And stare as Rory and taste blew all the rest away , just over 20 years old at the time amazing
I agree.. prob one of the best ever live performances I've seen... no glitz and glamour just pure talent❤
Just as brilliant to see now as when I saw it live back in 1970. Rory was 22. McCracken and Wilson were also great. Such a shame managerial problems came between them.
Enjoying every magical song I hear from this Ace on the Many Color Blues....and, no....

Many Color Blues...
Rory was a FORCE...his legacy and influence are immeasurable, RIP legend 🎗
Rory ist einfach genial auf seine Fander ! ☆☆☆☆ Legchat
Not a legend in the rind,but also StWilliiam; one of 484?, canonized and beatified Saints of Pope John Paul Ii, Your Friend, Old Chris, a retired fiddler of Albuquerque NM D tuned
All heart connected to 6 strings. So damn good!
sinner boy to this day drives me absolutely crazy
RORY was a gentle genius, what a guitarist, his music still haunts me,;rip Rory,
This version to me was the best just my opinion.☘️❤️❤️❤️
Some Serious Time Signatures going on there. Legendary Rory never forgotten. The Greatest
The whole thing is just in 4/4 dude.
Music Done RIGHT. Long Hair, flannel, jeans.. and kick ass music. It will never be this good again.... Except for the Rival Sons... #ShareTheSons #RivalSons #RoryRules #RoryGallagher #Taste
Vocals are unbelievable as well!

Rory,cada nota que salió de tu guitarra es única, un perfeccionista. Gracias adonde estés!!
The miracle that is youtube brought me here ...to enjoy fine music that I never had the opportunity to listen to live. THANKS to the poster & youtube

This man was magic and a beautiful humble human being as well I shed some tears when Rory died
I want to open a pub and play only Rory Gallagher's songs there with free beers every weekend on Karaoke night for best singers !
That would be fun .
Rory Gallagher is the man!!!!
ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the greatest performers of all time
Best live performer ever as far as pure talent goes. Also greatest three piece ever imo
Apart from the man (Rory) being just amazing. Tha Bass player was also "amazing". We need more of this music in our world today. God bless all you rockers who made "REAL MUSIC". Wake up people who listen to the record industry conveyor belt shit.
Talent does "NOT" come from the "music industry", it comes from the "HEART".
You got that right. This is Amazing. I'm really quite honestly I'm not sure how there's only a tiny amount of people giving it a thumbs up.
Totally agree dude, just please be careful with using quotation marks like that it makes your comment sound sarcastic and silly.
Totally agree, well said
Richard McCracken is probably the most unsung, underated bass player ever. He and John Wilson laid down one helluva foundation for Rory to pervey his magic.

Such a tight, exciting unit and Rorys’ rolling lines have that Irish speaking lilt ❤️☘️🙏🏻

Such Good Quality Sound.... That Man from Ireland with his very special magic Stratocaster....
Peace, love & happiness with you...RIP...
I never heard Rory live but my Cousin Carole in Connecticut who like myself was born and raised in Fanad Co Donegal is very likely the greatly missed *†* & Country Man of our own number one Fan 🙏💔🙏
Show de música, grande guitarrista!!!!
Rory....automatic thumbs up.
14 people must've got covid and lost their taste. Rory G master, genius, virtuoso can make your ears dance man, killer guitarist ☘
Flannels, jeans, Chuck Taylor's and long hair.. rock n roll!

Roll On , Rory !!!
The best

Hat es vor Joe Bonamassa je einen besseren Gitarristen gegeben? Absolute Weltklasse. Ich liebe Rory!!
My Rory story: when he came to Evansville, Ind. I had to work my dish washing job. So missed the show. This was after the Live album came out. Never got another chance.
Gary
When I saw Rory Gallagher in Christchurch New Zealand 1975
I had to scrape every coin together
To get and see him
I'm so pleased I made the effort
So strange to see Rory without his Strat. But this Telecaster sounds as good as his Strat ❤
I still have no idea how Rory managed to get such a low down gritty dirty tone out of a telecaster using nothing but a Vox and a treble booster of all things
All in the hands !
He suposedly had a Dallas Rangemaster taped up inside his amp. Brian May would know. Rory was his mentor
Woww!!Rory and his band Taste performing Sinner Boy at the Isle Of Wight Festival 1970💕
I was there ,we lost such a Great performer
An ALLE : RORY KONNTE die Fender spielen wie kein anderer Musiker !!!! RIP
Sonja Martens ja das ist Rory
Terry Kath konnte es auch.......Stratocaster (Tanglewood concert) und Monster of the Telecaster.
Everyone say whatever. Love to hear
From y6u all.
Amazing Rory Gallagher,sinner Boy , RIp
Dobra muzika good music good man
Something like Jimi Hendrix in Ireland. One of the best ever.
☘☘☘☘☘☘☘
Qu'est ce que j'aurais aimer avoir mon âge dans les années 70!
The one and only
End of Gamblimg with a tribute to Mike Bloomfield on East West. Great,. wonderful Rory!!!
Look they are plugged in.
Rory was great
Taste was definitely Tasty!
❤❤
Rory Gallagher the best
Three great together musician's .. Pity destroyed by a so cold manager ..
At least he wasn't murdered by his manager. RIP Rory & Jimi Hendrix.
Alex Lifeson sent me here. I thank him for that.
GOD
I just listened to the stones destroying love in vain by Robert Johnson
I had to switch to Rory Gallagher to hear real talent
Really real!
