The first time I saw him was in 1972 at a three-day rock festival called Bull Island. Nobody knew who he was, but after he played, there were a few hundred thousand people who would never forget him, including me. I saw him around ten more times after that.
After hearing Rory Gallagher I wondered why he wasn't on the rock radio stations I grew up listening to it's the same way with a band from back in the day called Budgie if you haven't heard them check them out also.
I wish I could erase Rory from my memory, just to have the chance to discover his music again. It was a freezing snowy morning when I first listened to Moonchild on the radio. I had skipped my Calculus class and I was having a coffee. The owner of the coffee shop told me the name. "Oh, him? He is Rory..." I went straight to a music shop and bought "Stagestruck" because it had Moonchild on it. I'll never forget tht day in my life.
I can't even count the number of afternoons my buddy Jerry and I used to listen to Rory, cranked, in a little house on a island, smoking cigs and drinking beer and getting beer rings and ashes on the big table in the kitchen as the snow came and went outside.
Montreux Jazz Festival July 5, 1985. One of the best performances I've ever heard. Moonchild is an amazing song, and Rory Gallagher sure knows how to play the guitar. But let's not forget Gerry McAvoy. His bass playing is quite deceptive, sounds simple, but it isn't. He played with Rory for twenty years, and on this recording every note he plays is exactly what should be played. Not too much, not too little. Supertight backing for Rory with Brendan O'Neill on drums.
@J P I don't know if this is Ted on drums or not, but yes he was this good. at least, if not better. He had more style to his playing, more flair, if you will. His snare rolls made the mundane cool. So no, this is probably not Ted McKenna. He's not near as good
They don't get any better than Rory I wish he was still with us what a loss to music he is a one off super star 100% great and legend hope you are still rocking up there R.I.P. RORY GALLAGHER THE GENIUS SO SADLY MISSED.
This performance always leaves me speechless. Such passionate playing. Sometimes strumming a distorted powerchord tells more of a story than a _100 notes per second_-solo.
I'm sick of hearing about Rory not ever achieving real fame! Just look on RUclips, and you will see that the camera was always on when, Rory was around.Every day I see a new video that I never saw before. Oh don't let me forget all The Chanting, rory Rory RORY. No, not too famous, no not at all. I thank everyone that read this far into my Rant. RORY RULES!!!
Randico Enrico Gonzalez Jr. .....nah, some of us have *always* known and loved Rory and “fame” is precisely what he steered clear of. Rory did however, tour Europe constantly and had sold in excess of 30 million albums *before* he passed away and *before* newer and renewed interest. It was the States Rory had hoped to crack but he only enjoyed a “cult” following there despite repeated tours. It’s only in recent years that his popularity has increased there but he refused to “sell out” saying he could “write a hit song but did not WANT to”, Rory was the real deal. As for the camera, yes, Rory was the obvious star, you’ll notice his fellow band members stand back, that’s why - it was Rory’s time to shine.
You always here about Guitar Players that do not get enough recognition, underrated when compared to the big names spoken often. If there ever was an underrated not spoken of enough guitar player it is this cat Rory Gallagher. He is as good as any player I have ever listen to. Rory can only be equaled not exceeded....he is that damn good! It does not hurt that he has one bad ass bass player in Gerry McAvoy laying it down!
Heyja m8 You just revered being almost 60. Well its 11 month on and im about turning 61 in may guess same generation. Now what i need to tell. I was born in Germany came to holland in januari 74. I was pissed back then due to the movement to Holland but than it came on to me .the city was Geleen south of the Netherlands pk..until 86 from 69 they ve had this festival called PINKPOP look it up it still exists and even more. Due to the fact that the fest gotten bigger and bigger they moved on down south about 40kl. From my place. Fact is that Pinkpop, of which I had the chance being a part of especially thruout the 70ees.lol. man it was magic in 74 .I was just turned 13 and got a ticket from my other My first year.you can guess I believe still know the better acts One was Rory Gallagher .the place of happening was a normal bikers round up in the cities park.so stage still quite improvised ok.theres a picture on you tube with Rory playing beneath a sheed of linnen with the words Pinkpop 74 Other major acts were cpt.beefheart steelers wheel and others I will never forget in those 70ees years seen all or a lot of the old bands .manfred mann with his nightingales and bombers he Spirit in the night . Thin lizzy van halen you name top bands back than 👌 Love and light from Holland.oh yes I believe telling that Pinkpop was taken up in the 2000ers years in the guineas book of records the only festival ever kept returning ever-increasing 69
A true musician just wants to perform. It should never be about the money, ive played with my band for 10 years now. You can't beat the chemistry of like minded enthusiastics
I was 13 when I first time I heard his music and now 40 yrs later this still gives me goose bumps head to toe. Thanks Rory for a beautiful legacy. rip.
Rory is a genious.... no point comparing musicians, he's one of the best. Cant practise to get the feel as this guy has, or the legends. You have it, or dont
Couldn't agree more. I can play the Daughter Of The Everglades solo note for note, yet it still sounds like crap when I do it. Rory had that magic touch that is so rare to find...
Played for over 60 years only to find out I don't have it but had a lot of fun trying and still do, however quite true you either have it or don't, Rory was a natural !
Brilliant! 👍👍👍 Just recently discovered this guy 🎸 (thanks to RUclips!) and can't believe I missed him all these years... not any more! 😁 I listen to Shadow Play at least once almost every day. 🎵🎶🎵🎶 I will add this song 🎸🎶🎵 to my daily play list. A GREAT artist whose music wasn't promoted heavily in the U.S. Our loss!
What an absolute pleasure it must have been to be in a band with this man,I tear up every time I realize those days are over.He is missed every day :( What a legend!
Having done two posters for two different shows in 73 in Calgary , both times he was the warm act and both times he was the better act , may God bless his soul
Best song ever!!! Fantastic music, rythm, melody, words... He was simply the best of all. He had a great individual personality and a special character everyone admired! A real gentleman of rock. Perfect guitarist, song writer, singer. R.I.P. Rory Gallagher...
RORY GALLAGHER IS THE MOST UNDERRATED, BRILLIANT MUSICIAN ON THE WHOLE PLANET. WHEN ARE PEOPLE GONNA GET IT? RORY YOUR THE BEST! EVER EVER EVER. NOBODY TOUCHES HIM. 🎸💚👑💞☘️
Had the pleasure of being pretty much front row when this exact line-up, instruments, amps etc did a show at Auckland Town Hall - roundabouts 1979... was everything to behold. Just like the video - but more personal :) Thanks for the Journey Rory.
I saw Rory, twice back in the 70's and both times, he wore his Levi (denim jacket) and removed it later, after it was all wet n' sweaty, both times he played for at least 2-1/2 hours, giving the best show possible, he was awesome...!
How can you possibly not like this. I bet Mettalica wouldn't even have gotten a contract back in those days. They only thrive by a lack of better, it's sad these days.
Great version of Moonchild. Although Rory sometimes doesn't make the top ten in some global guitarists lists, he is acknowledged by those who followed his career and also by all the other top guitarists. The following comments are attributed to Slash: "He's one of the guitar players I got turned on to at a pretty young age. Nobody else I knew was really too hip to him, at least in Hollywood. But then they were sort of all into Randy Rhoads, anyway. Rory didn't sound like anybody else. There are a million guys who sound like Stevie Ray Vaughan, but I never heard anybody who could really pull off sounding like Rory Gallagher. He had a very individual, independent kind of tone and approach and everything. He's always been a big hero to me."
I think the best EVER quote was by Jimi Hendrix, back in 1970......who when asked, whats it like to be the best Guitarist in the world, replied......I don't know, go ask Rory Gallagher.......That says it all, methinks........
Those who compile top ten list´s truly don´t know much about guitar playing. There is no such thing as a top ten...thousands of guitarist´s are equal to the task of playing at the ultimate level...Rory was awesome...so much passion and never did he sell out like so many others. R.I.P.
n13roy ......that’s a myth that has unfortunately taken on a life of its own and is now being documented as fact. The interview where Jimi was asked this is now on RUclips yet still this continues. I’ve heard of at least 3/4 guitarists who Jimi supposedly cited as the best.

Gods guitar angle the very blessed Rory Gallagher, probably the greatest guitarists of all time. Who said this, I did and I am willing to bet my best suit, my clean shirt and new brogue shoes in this claim.
@Jon Hill Hi Jon, Hendrix, Gallagher, Page, Moore, Gorham, Robbo and all the other very great guitar players are the very best iplayers n the world. to different people each player are the very best in this world so I agree with all those peoples
Probably the bset live version of what I believe is Rory's best song. His second solo is worth all the gold and diamonds in the world, it's so fluid, fast, and full of emotion. Reminds me of some of Blackmore's epic live solos. And let's not forget gerry McAvoy's pulsing bass lines - meaty and melodic, the perfect foil for Rory's brilliance. An incredible performance.
I was born in 76, grew up with NDW and ABBA, then came to Iron Maiden, Metalica and Priest, and it took me 20 years to recognize what Rory was all about! I love Rory and his music! Lower Saxony
Κάθομαι με τις ώρες να βρω τα κατάλληλα ηχοχρώματα όταν φτιάχνω ένα κομμάτι, προγράμματα,υπολογιστές, synthesizers και μετά ακούς 3 άτομα να γεμίζουν το ακουστικό φάσμα με θεϊκό τρόπο. Αυτό είναι ταλέντο. Αυτό κάνει κάτι τέτοια κομμάτια διαχρονικά και αθάνατα. Μάθαμε 10 νότες στο ωδείο (από 8 χρόνων μέχρι τώρα στα 48 σπουδάζω μουσική) κ πάμε να γράψουμε μουσική!!!! Μπράβο τους. Έμπνευση κ ταλέντο χρειάζεται
16 years ago i was watching this video on youtube as a student.Still here!I will be watching the video till the day i die.Rory RIP.GREECE loves you!!!
I will be 73 this year love Rory saw him back in 1973!
You are definitely a legend. 🎉❤🎉
He would fill stadiums today if he was still around. So sad he isn't. So many guitarists would love to have half his talent.
Thankfully i seen him in 83 .He never got the worldwide recognition he deserved .
The first time I saw him was in 1972 at a three-day rock festival called Bull Island. Nobody knew who he was, but after he played, there were a few hundred thousand people who would never forget him, including me. I saw him around ten more times after that.
Absolutely
One of my favorite songs of Rory Gallagher 👍🎸🎸🎸. R.I.P 🕊️
I'm 48 years old and right now I just find out Rory Gallagher. Never is too late to fix mistakes. This song is....wow...even better than the record
Should of seen them Live!! Simply Awesome
Celebrating the 75th year of his birth. He was only 47 when he died 😢 Turn it up!
I saw him in Athens at New Filadelfeia Stadium at 1981 at age of 13 i am now 54 and i remember every second of this concert and Rory ❤
I also just found out I'm 52 and play guitar like you said bro it’s never too late, but I wish I found out 45 years ago, man he surely is great!!!!!!
After hearing Rory Gallagher I wondered why he wasn't on the rock radio stations I grew up listening to it's the same way with a band from back in the day called Budgie if you haven't heard them check them out also.

Wow, that ranks as one of the most heartfelt compliments ever. To a fellow fan, it means a lot. Thank you.
From Greece with love Rory for ever!! Και είμαστε πολλοί βλέπω εδώ μέσα..
Excellent song utterly excellent guitarist SORELY MISSED
My favourite song of his. I play this LOUD everytime. RIP Rory.. I still have the vinyl album, and I will never get rid of it..

sorry Ted Mc Kenna on drums (R.I.P.)

@J P I don't know if this is Ted on drums or not, but yes he was this good. at least, if not better. He had more style to his playing, more flair, if you will. His snare rolls made the mundane cool. So no, this is probably not Ted McKenna. He's not near as good

Gerry McAvoy (bass guy) shows what really means to feel the music. A real musician.
And the drummer!!
Rory what can you say, but drum bass that is a great engine 👍
TOTALLY! Gerry is Amaaaaaaaaaaazing!!!!
Absolutely & pretty sure he invented "man spreading" :)
Indeed, McAvoy means business. Would have made it any band.
This performance always leaves me speechless. Such passionate playing. Sometimes strumming a distorted powerchord tells more of a story than a _100 notes per second_-solo.

Arguably, the definitive version.
One BADASS bassist right there hell yes
Yes mate he's real artist really
RORY GALLAGHER THE MAN THAT REFUSED TO SELL-OUT FOR FAME!!
IN MY MIND THE GREATEST LIVE MUSICIAN TO EVER LIVE!
Not fame, he refused to record commercial music.
brilliant like so many jazz ,blues , rock and punk musicians . At 75 years old ........ yes
A true musician just wants to perform. It should never be about the money, ive played with my band for 10 years now. You can't beat the chemistry of like minded enthusiastics
Fuck off with the Caps Lock dickhead.
@Keirnon Grainger YEAH I LOVE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT RORY IN CAPS LOCK! THAT MAN PLAYED ON STAGE IN CAPS LOCK 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
One of the few who is much better live than studio. The feeling, the simplicity, the electricity ... Rory Gallagher ... There is nothing more to say
I agree these kids have nò idea
There is a big difference between fame and talent and I finally understand this by watching Rory now.
I first saw Rory at Roskilde Festival 1978 and I was blown away by this song. Since then this has been my favourite song of his 🥰
My God!- Such a beautiful song.
Nobody writes such deep melancholic songs for rock-guitar!
29. 12. 2023 Привет с Северного Кавказа. 👍👍👍С новым годом .

Как хорошо, что хорошая музыка объединяет всех!!!
How can three men make such a great sound, this song should be at least 2 hours long
So like an album?

I was lucky enough to see Rory several times in the late 70s and 1980s, legendary performer, he loved to play live and always gave 100%
Very few concerts have ever been this good. The true Irish God.
Having done two posters for two different shows in 73 in Calgary , both times he was the warm act and both times he was the better act , may God bless his soul
One of the most underrated players of all time. RIP
Not underrated by those who play and know his music. The greatest!
This man is way too understated. This song literally influenced so many metal songs
Two Minutes to Midnight for example...
Love this song Rory is the best guitarist ever a genius RORY GALLAGHER THE GREAT.
Best song ever!!! Fantastic music, rythm, melody, words...
He was simply the best of all. He had a great individual personality and a special character everyone admired! A real gentleman of rock. Perfect guitarist, song writer, singer. R.I.P. Rory Gallagher...

Had the privilege of seeing Rory in Glasgow in the 70's! Much missed guitar genius.
Every time...You make us smile for ever...Yes,you can! Αθανατος!!!☝💗

Rory`s "Moonchild" is one of my all time favourites to listen to, & I used to love playing this with my band years ago, R.I.P
I don't know if I have some kind of disorder. I can't seem to get out of the loop of this song. Have to listen it at least 5 times max volume.
One of the greatest riffs in Rock history and a blast to play.
Watched dozens and dozens of times....3.38 still sends shivers down my spine!!!!!!
One of the best opening riffs in music.................Love blasting this riff out on my old strat....
Moonchild is my favorite Song from Rory! 🤘
One of the best guitarist ever🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
a great band all around....the drummer really kills it too
The man was a genius .....
Rory is a legend of Rock
I saw Rory, twice back in the 70's and both times, he wore his Levi (denim jacket) and removed it later, after it was all wet n' sweaty, both times he played for at least 2-1/2 hours, giving the best show possible, he was awesome...!

Johnny winter and rory gallagher the best
Without a doubt and underappreciated too.
How can you possibly not like this. I bet Mettalica wouldn't even have gotten a contract back in those days. They only thrive by a lack of better, it's sad these days.

Αυτό είναι ταλέντο. Αυτό κάνει κάτι τέτοια κομμάτια διαχρονικά και αθάνατα. Μάθαμε 10 νότες στο ωδείο (από 8 χρόνων μέχρι τώρα στα 48 σπουδάζω μουσική) κ πάμε να γράψουμε μουσική!!!! Μπράβο τους. Έμπνευση κ ταλέντο χρειάζεται
Τα ειπες ολα.... 3 ατομα μια ορχηστρα.
Όταν αγαπάς αυτό που κάνεις σε αγαπάει και αυτό, από ό,τι φαίνεται.
Ο Rory με έκανε να αγαπήσω και να μάθω να ακούω ροκ.καθε του τραγούδι είναι 10αρι.Μονο σεβασμό και θαυμασμό για το ταλέντο αυτό!!!
Καλό

This song always brings me to tears. Love and miss Rory so much!
Such an amazing talent. Unfortunately, artists today have no inspiration and no talent for music. Is this your favorite song?
