    Today, 23 years ago, we lost a true Blues Icon. On June 14,1995, we lost Rory Gallagher to post-op liver transplant infection. The man was only in his 40’s and just hitting his stride in the Blues world, mind you, kind of inconspicuously. Thankfully, his life’s work is out there on vinyl, CD’s, DVD’s, and of course, RUclips. A great blues guitarist, who is and will be missed. Just another addition to the Great Gig in the Sky. 🎸🎸🤘🤘.

      Wow, i remember hearing about Rory's passing then. My neighbor came out early one morning while i was going to work to deliver the news but i would have forgotten the date until now. That Irish Tour 2 record set was awesome.

    That sound... 59 - 64 precision are the quintessential basses for me. The midrange in those instruments is so throaty and perfect. Love it.

    As a bass player i say how can you not play a bass with a pick, the real sin of the bass playing world is playing slap

    • @aaronlaorrabaquio4230
      @aaronlaorrabaquio4230 6 лет назад

      I play with both fingers and pick, but why it would be bad to play slap?

    • @alexmallon5016

    Paul McCartney, Chris Squire, Carole Kaye. What have these bass players got in common? A pick. They all played with a pick. Sometimes John Paul Jones did too. John Entwistle used a pick on My Generation. It's a sound.

    Circle on the first fret is from a truss rod repair? Probably stripped out the anchor.

    • @wingracer1614
      @wingracer1614 6 лет назад +9

      Exactly what it is. Truss rod either broke, was frozen or stripped at the anchor so instead of doing it right (removing the finger board) they just dug it out, replaced it and filled the hole.
