Out on the Western Plain - Rory Gallagher
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- Recorded on the 2nd of March 1976 - Rory's 28th Birthday - on the BBC's Old Grey Whistle Test.
This is the fourth of 6 tracks performed, 5 of which are from the "Against the Grain" album which had just been released at the time.
Thumbs up if you think Rory is the best guitar player in the history!
43 thumbs in 7 years,is Rory hiding here!!!
Just ask the Man with the Golden Tan said.
No thumbs up! Sorry. I really love and adore him & his play, but Ritchie Blackmore, Tony Iommy, Jimmy Page, Brian May were a bit more impressive on 6 strings way back then: all in all...
Maybe the same with him as a singer ... I really love is voice (especially on this track, Bullfrog Blues or Shadow Play), but he ain't a 2nd Ian Gillan (he never had a "Child in Time"- a "Highway Star"or a "When a Blind Man Cries"-moment, asfo), he is no Robert Plant (with "Dazed and Confued" next to many others) or Dio (Over and Over, Stargazer, All the Fools Sailed away, etc.):
Maybe he'd been the most talented musical universal genious of that time... But just like Phil Lynott or Gary Moore... That was the age of Superheroes, not of universal geniouses

Can't say I know anyone better than Rory Gallagher.Being from Cork Ireland,I might think that.
One of the things that has always fascinated me about Rory's playing is that he makes a unique blend of American blues and Irish traditional music. This particular song is a sparkling example.
Yes. This is a bluesy song in DADGAD tuning!
Another great example is a more recent version of this song from "The Unwanted" who have their roots in Irish trad music: ruclips.net/video/50cDN3-t9dQ/видео.html
It sings...with emotion. The picking is soft and hard and with a flawless rythme. TOTALLY UNDERAPPRECIATED vocally as well, a once in a decade talent ..
A decent volume of traditional American music, such as folk or bluegrass, has roots in the musical traditions that were brought over by the Irish immigrants to the southeastern US.
"you might like this next one..."
...NAH RORY MATE WE WILL ALL FRICKIN LOVE THIS ONE!!!
Michael Montgomery right on, Michael, brilliant
This man exudes honesty, passion, grace, humility,and integrity in abundance. Unlike some of the blues tribute acts today, Joe Bonamassa springs to mind. Rory's the real deal
he was something else. very different,unique,good hearted, i think he finally wanted to settle down with somebody but in the end his music was his real lover. RIP bud
Music was his first love ,he never sold out ,true to himself ,a real gent ,and decent human being ,an ARTIST.
Two great comments here
+lamb998......Why the need for comparisons? I enjoy many varied artists (including early Van) but there's never a need or excuse to knock Rory. The man was an exceptional talent and a beautiful human being who played (brilliantly) for the love of it, nothing more, nothing less. He's also my all-time favourite and about as far removed from "shit" as you could ever hope to get. Might I suggest you give Rory a further listen if you're not familiar with his material?
well said Linda!
rorty is one of my biggest influence in my guitar playing even in my day to day attitude.
I hear his music and realize how empty is our world without Rory!!
i get where your coming from
We've all lost .
Rory is the wizard of the guitar, may it be an acoustic or electric. He had the skill in his DNA.
I gotta disagree it was from his soul he put his heart and soul into it
I'd say that "Out on the Western Plain" was Rory's signature song.
That is a tough one to call, Best Rory Song is so hard to call. The man is a legend!
Heard an old interview recently with Brian May who said Rory G was his biggest and most important influence on guitar.🔥. RG = the real deal
Nah, Too Much Alcohol.
Pure tone; both voice and guitar. Makes you believe he really did ride in the Old West..
I'm from Dublin, but when you visit Cork it's like being home. They actually have a Rory statue and streets named after him. Love the place, and the big man himself.
Also a big statue of Rory in Ballyshannon...his birthplace.
It's a shame that Cork Airport still isn't named after him.
Rory does acoustic as well as his Strat!
He even plays the mandolin sometimes. See 'Hometown blues.'
"Oh Rory's cowboy song? Fuck off I'm not touching that" - Jimmy Paige
It's such a beautiful song. I used to skip past this, but now it's one of my favorites.
Songs such as this are becoming lost gems. Those with discernable ears will lend them to these wonderful sounds. Thank you Rory 🙂
saw him at the liverpool empire around 1978 , best concert i ever went to ,only filled in for a mate and went with another mate who had 2 tickets,wasnt my music then , unbeliveable night ,brilliant ,ears were ringing for hours
Saw Rory live when I was a teenager in Dublin... It was my first ever live gig. I'm in my 60's now and remember it like it was yesterday. ❤
Si tu primer concierto fue uno de Rory , eres una persona afortunada , 👏 👏
I was so lucky to see him twice back in the 70's. Once in support of the Irish Tour release and the other was Against the Grain (I think...)...
Great album that one!!
Listen to the Cork Opera version!Its s unbelieve good !❤❤❤
GREAT RORY!!!
A legend!!!
I saw the mighty Rory on two occasions.
Great musician. Really missing.
fuck me this just is just above and beyond

brilliant guitarist , the bass player was brilliant to
Love Rory, a song about the Wild West in the States, he new his stuff...
I'll always look up to Rory Gallagher. ALWAYS.
Man who else would throw together a song about Jesse James and Buffalo Bill. An a gorgeous song. What a man Rory. Still amazing us to this day
I still watch all the old westerns. This would have made some theme song to any of them instead of Elmer Bernsteins musical pieces which were like in every old western...
Leadbelly wrote it. It's a cover.
I was fortunate enough to see Rory three times, the first time he opened for Foghat and he absolutely blew me away.
Count Yourself Lucky !! Saw him Once ! Rod D’Eath.. at this tiny Armory - Blew Everyone Away ! Never Forget It !!
There's no shame in crying.
Wow..
Yeah, it's up there in my list alright, i think the one on the Cork Opera House dvd is the best i've heard, although the other version i've posted from '88 isn't bad either, i'd say it's better than this one
no words
Gallagher is God.
YES!
hell yes!
@@lanabanana68 Lol nice perseverence over the years, and hell yes he is God, the only god worth thinking about
I was blessed to see this genius in 1977 at Sheffield City Hall...I will always miss him😢😢
Yes
... miss you brother :o((
Always your ol' pal

Rory gallagher great musician no words no comment
Rory Gallagher was & is the best guitar player in history his music & the rich legacy of his songs will live forever R. I. P Rory
van who
Pity about the video quality but Mr Rory Gallagher needs no apology. Just brilliant .
Just the Christ Moore song, i think it's called "Rory Is Gone (to Play the Blues in Heaven)"
This melody in combination with guitar sounding makes me cry - don't no why
Has nothing to do with theme .... Love it to play with Bluesharp - G-Harp in Cross Position..key of D
I think, this melody fits perfect to my World weariness - or somethin like that :-)))))
Rory - Maybe you are a Million miles away - but always on my mind!

Good singing and good playing.
Rory Gallagher
played
in the Gondel
a little cinema
in
Bremen
in a noble suburb
Schwachhausen
1972
in the near
of the headquarter
of
Radio Bremen
with its
worldfamous
Sendesaal.
He had given
a phantastic
live - concert
to me as a seventeen
I will never forget
how modest he behaved
although
he already became
a blues legend
with his band
Taste
Listen to this genius
especially
On the boards
where he is playing
a lyrical saxophone
like a jazz - star
can it be better?
I saw Rory live at The Rainbow and remains as good a concert I’ve seen.GENIUS was this man 👌
what mistake?
When I was a cowboy out on the western plain,
When I was a cowboy, did a hit of window pane.
Saw a million paisleys, falling like pouring rain.
Come-a tie dye Hippie, come a tie dye Hippie, Hippie yay...!
Genious,
no?
Απλά.....Υπέροχο.......!!!!
Βεβαίως 😎🎶👌
there´s an awesome song dedicated to rory by marcel scherpenzeel blues band called "last wave". album was, i think, called "dark hills are calling". didn´t find a youtube video to that though... but if you happen to find the album anywhere, just buy it, it´s great!
Pleasent!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
John Spillane did a song for Rory.. I can't post it here but just search youtube with his name and Rorys
My all time favourite player.........
I love him so much. Play for music
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍Purely Sublime.
A lot of people do not know about Rory early life when he was a cowboy and hung out with the other cowboy Phil Lynott. Can you just imagine those 2 bad boys along with their pall Huddie William Ledbetter, Phil Lynott & Rory Gallagher out on the Western Plains robbing banks, smoking cigars, drinking cool beers, upsetting the local sheriff and his deputies, causing major havoc in town and have the times of their lives
james bradshaw I'd like to think he and Phil are out on the Western Plains right now as we speak, in another dimension.
@@avalondreaming1433 Your imagination is 💪💪💪💪
Avalondreaming that's a lovely thought ❤
And another Irish Guitarist to make
it. " Tres Hombres Hibernia "
