Walking Blues - Rory Gallagher & Mark Feltham, 1988

Rock and blues musician Rory Gallagher performs ‘Walking Blues’ accompanied by Mark Feltham on harmonica.
Introducing Rory Gallagher, Shay Healy takes great comfort in the knowledge that
"No microchip will every replace the great blues journeyman Rory Gallagher."
Rory Gallagher explains that his unusual looking guitar is an old 1932 National Resonator. Although it looks wooden it is steel bodied and is often used for street singing as it is very loud.
Although out of the country a lot, Rory Gallagher feels the urge to come home every now and again,
You always miss it when you are away.
Accompanied by his friend Mark Feltham on harmonica, Rory Gallagher performs one of the greatest blues songs ‘Walking Blues’. Written in 1930 by Son House, the song has been adapted and recorded by numerous other musicians including Robert Johnson and Muddy Waters.
This episode of ‘Evening Extra’ was broadcast on 24 February 1988. The presenter is Shay Healy.
