    If you watch carefully, you can see what sets Rory apart from other guitar heroes...he is not 'playing' his guitar. It is literally part of him, like a hand or foot. It's not mastery of the instrument, it's literally a part of him. He coaxes sounds and emotions from that '61 Strat that nobody else could and never will. It bends to his will and command, like a well trained dog. There is no conscious thought in most of the playing, and he concentrates on the vocals and stage show while the Strat seemingly plays itself. This is why Rory excelled in live shows and why he was different than anyone else.

    A legend unjustly underrated these days. Don't get me wrong, I know there are lots of Rory fans commenting on here. But let's be honest, if you say the name "Gallagher" to someone today, 99% of people won't think of Rory, they'll think of Oasis first.
    Anyhow, he is definitely one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

      he has been since his death , thats when the big appreciation really started , before that he was sort of forgotten about a bit in Ireland especially during the 80s. He had become unfashionable and in a small country with 2 channels he was not being aired, although he was still a huge international act. He played the self aid concert in dublin in 1986 and alot of the youngsters then didn't know who this guy was that was about to come on. There was a hugely popular music show on irish television at the time called MTUSA but the theme music was the intro to the rory gallagher song "Follow me". When Rory came on in Dublin he tore into that song and the crowd went wild, they didn't know that the theme actually belonged to this guy up on stage, they got a big reawakening and this was being televised live aswell

    The greatest. The legend. Rory Gallagher. No guitarist, singer/songwriter, performer can touch Rory Gallagher. Especially with Gerry McAvoy driving that bass. Rory's guitar mastery, passion and fan connection is unapproachable. Only Jimi, SRV and Jeff Healey can keep up with Rory in blues heaven when Rory blasts the clouds away. We are lucky to have the videos to show the world what Rory Gallagher could do with such talent, passion and guitar mastery. Thanks so much Rory. We all love you. RIP Rory, Jimi, SRV and Jeff.

    I am in gratitude for Rory Gallaghers brief time on earth, and the music he created, and left us every day. Although being "rewarded" for his music and principles was never his "top priority", I am in contact with The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, at this prime time of exposure for their biased and opaque process in the induction and recognition of artists based on "mastery" and "ability to articulate". Stands to reason that using this criteria, an Irishman, deceased almost 30 years ago, would be discounted with "women" and other "marginalized" voices (and I'm quoting their representatives' biased statements). Although they have banished Jann Wenner, that stain is theirs, and it is worth rallying for Rory. Not because the opinion of people like that qualifies him, but because he is remembered and loved by fans, acknowledged publicly by musicians, especially British, who made their bones on the Blues he never ceased to acknowledge. They can also nominate him, but according to Rock Hall, haven't effectively done so. For me, it boils down to - as Critic Cameron Crowe put it - Rory Gallagher made music "that mattered".
    Put the pressure on Rock Hall to finally open up a Fair, transparent voting process.

      You have a lot to catching up to do. He was as nice and humble as he was a prolific writer,singer,sax,harmonic and obviously great guitarist. Don't believe the stories that he was an alcoholic. He wasn't a heavy drinker(for the most part) until the latter days. He took Dr. prescribed heavy doses of acetaminophen for his fear of flight not knowing it was destroying his liver. Sorry for the unsolicited story but as you said you're a new fan etc. Check out Taste too.
      Another side note- He was asked to join Cream twice and also the Stones. Thank God he stayed true to his conviction.
      Enjoy the journey. Loved Rory since 75 ish. Saw him in Germany twice in the mid 80's. Guess I gave it away. Rory was the man.

      Die Lackierung ist so runter, weil ihm die Git mal geklaut wurde und dann im Freien bei Wind und Wetter liegengelassen, aber glücklicherweise wiedergefunden wurde.
      Das war ursprünglich mal die einzige Strat in ganz Irland.
      Ein Gitarrist aus einer Showband orderte eine Strat, gab sie aber an den Laden zurück, weil die in Sunburst war und nicht in Fiesta Red wie die Strat seines Vorbildes Hank Marvin von den Shadows.
