Rory Gallagher - 'Mastermind' specialist subject

Rory fan David Foley appeared on the Australian edition of the quiz show Mastermind. Sporting a Rory 'Blues' album tee shirt, David's specialist subject was the music of Rory Gallagher. Not only did David do brilliantly, he won the episode!

I was a bit shocked to realise I knew all but two questions. I'm a fan of the man and his music but never "studied" him. Other than his licks. I was lucky enough to see him several times and was able to trade picks with him. God Bless Rory Gallagher. R.I.P.

[@southwestshelly]

[@wandatowellable]

[@petejones879]

I lucky to have seen Rory perform live twice 72 and 85.. In fact my first ever live gig was Rory in 72

[@frostypop934]

He was an amazing showman. Saw him twice. I feel honored.

[@bamboo59.52]

Absolutely ❤

[@bamboo59.52]

Seen him just the once way back in 1979 in the Ulster Hall, he was incredible ❤ RIP Rory ❤

Dude really knows his Rory trivia. I was surprised I managed get all of them right but 3.

[@thereunionparty]

Knowledgeable guy. I knew the Taste answer, lol

[@daviemcf]

I saw Taste six times....wish they had never broken up.

[@1200owner]

I got 8!

[@oneida41859]

Well done!!

[@marcelaoyarce5384]

I knew all the answers

[@picknick3591]

😂 I got em all bar the one about the Marquee studio. Which was stupid of me!

Question, Who's the best guitarist in the world ? Answer, Rory Gallagher...Reply, Correct...

[@VoltTaar]

“How does it feel to be the greatest guitarist in the world? I don’t know, go ask Rory Gallagher”.

[@danwebb4418]

Jimi would know..

[@megamanxigaming410]

I respect your man's knowledge and he definitely know''s more than me but he still cant pronounce "Gallagher" properly 😅

[@jonwhite254]

Just about to comment that 😊

[@barbwatkins3676]

It's an Aussie thing..I'm afraid I've been guilty of that myself..

[@daviemcf]

Gallahur!@@barbwatkins3676

[@daviemcf]

Well done David, there was two questions I didn't know but saw Rory thirteen times including six with Taste,I'm 72 yrs old.

[@eily_b]

Well done! I knew only 10

[@anthonymcnamee6297]

Unreal live

[@RobMontier-dx2go]

I got 5!

[@simonbarton9677]

Not bad but I did beat him by one.

[@petejones879]

If he was a real Rory fan he would have heard Rory himself self say the G is silent.. Like gala ha

[@baynesstreetblues]

Mmm ……. silent g as in sight I think might be better example.

[@JustAnother_Irishman]

Such a big fan he can't pronounce the name Gallagher the way Rory did.

[@madbstard1]

Even DJs here in Ireland can't pronounce it properly 😢

[@daviemcf]

Most people in UK can't prounce it.@@madbstard1

[@petejones879]

Haha I got more right than he did
