      I would go so far as to say that he's THE most underrated guitarist of all. Btw, if anyone is ever in Ireland, I'd recommend going to Ballyshannon in Donegal to see the Rory Gallagher statue and/or the Rory Gallagher tribute festival that's held annually there.

    Brian May from Queen said that he went to see Rory play when he was still trying to get into guitar playing professionally and at the end of the show while Rory and the band were packing up he approached Rory and asked how he got his guitar tone, Rory told him exactly what he needed to get which Brian did and is what we’ve heard on every Queen song since 😊 That’s the other thing people loved about Rory, he was one of the nicest guys you could meet and always found time to talk to anyone like the young Brian. Very humble man, playing was all that mattered.

      Calling Card is a great track but any of his live vids are good ,there is b/w vid of him playing Shadow Play on a German tv show[,I think] ,Rory plays his heart out but the audience sat like statues ,how they could sit so quiet was beyond me , they did applaud at the end so maybe Germans are too polite to react like us Brits , it's a great performance well worth a look .

    I was blessed. My first rock concert:
    May 19, 1973 East Tennessee State University (lol yeah, I'm old, but still above the dirt...)
    Rory Gallagher - ZZ Top
    4 dollars
    It was about two months before Tres Hombres came out. (Dusty Hill's 24th birthday, I came to find out on his passing) It was Festival Seating and I managed to get about 15 feet from mic center. Rory Gallagher was pure fire right out of the gate, and his band was phenomenal. (particularly Lou Martin on his electric piano) Rory was amazing to see play and I think that he had as much fun as anyone. Then, Billy Gibbons and the boys came out. Back when they were the most badass blues rock band that ever was. Straw hats, jeans, no beards (but Frank. lol), and BG in a white tshirt w/ pack of Marlboros rolled up in the sleeve(lol). Needless to say, Rory and Billy made a big impression on a 16 yr old. Blues rock, slide guitar nut ever since.
    RIP Rory, Rod, Lou, & Dusty. Thank You!
    Keep Rockin' Billy, Frank, & Gerry

    Saw Rory in 73 opening up for Deep Purple when they were peaking . he blew the roof off the place and after his set he did an encore and we were standing on our chairs screaming for another encore which he did but we wanted more..Rory made it very difficult for Deep Purple that night to come on after him.

      Keith was passed out for two days, and Rory just left and flew out to Japan to meet his band and start their tour. The Stones deal, while flattering, would have never worked. Rory was a good human, and he would have never competed with the giant egos of Mick & Keith. It would have been a waste to have him anywhere but out in front of his own band. The Goat IMO, with second place going to Gary Moore who coincidentally was another Irish Blues Rock guitar god, who used to play some of the same gigs back in the day. RIP

      Yes, 'I Fall Apart' is probably low on the list of recommended pieces when it comes to Rory as most people like to direct newbies to the more raucous 'showing off' live numbers. But 'I Fall Apart' shows that deeper, smoother, less grandiose beauty in the licks and curls.

    Rory Gallagher sold over 30 million records, but turned down record companies that wanted to make him a "Star" because he didn't want to live that life. One of the greatest electric blues guitar players of all time! I was fortunate to see him live (twice) in the front row leaning on the stage 5 feet away from him. He came out in blue jeans, a flannel shirt and denim jacket with his signature beat to death Fender Stratocaster and just blew the roof off the place! Couldn't talk the next day from shouting. One of the most electrifying performers I've ever seen in my life! He died in 1995 from painful drawn out complications from a liver transplant. I cried when I heard the news! Another legendary Irish musician in the same league of music influence as Van Morrison, The Cranberries, and U2. He has a huge catalog of music. Check out Bull Frog Blues live in Paris. That will give you some Idea of what it was like to rock out with Rory Gallagher at a small club like I did. I've been waiting for you guys to discover him!

    Your analysis on Rory living the music is correct, he was music. And he is the greatest guitar player of all time, just watch any live performance. Never played the same song in the same way twice, even Ritchie Blackmore from Deep Purple said he's the most natural player he ever saw.

  • @garyrosenberg3369

    Finally! One of the guitarists I was waiting to hear on your show. But you just have to watch him play live, so you can see, he wasn't playing but living the blues. What made his music so special was his Irish background that always shone through. Watch him play Moon Child or Tatoo'd Lady, he'll blow you away.😊

    @1Moonchild 7 месяцев назад +12

    So happy that you've tapped into Rory Gallagher and hope this is just the beginning. A shy, gentle soul off stage, Rory was a beast when performing live. As a self-taught multi-instrumentalist, he played electric & acoustic guitar, mandolin, electric sitar, harmonica, saxophone - and put forth a diverse spectrum of styles from blues and rock to jazz, folk, country and a bit of funk. He was an outstanding songwriter and his vocals were so beautifully unique. Rory's live performances were truly epic - and when I saw him perform live, it was transformational, no other performer I'd seen before or since came even remotely close to him. He touched my musical soul and I was never the same. People who love Rory love him as much for who/how he was as a human being as we do for his music. He easily could has been a superstar, but he wouldn't let the music companies dictate or compromise his musical vision - he did not play the game for fame and he preferred smaller, more intimate venues to the big ones. There are so many facets to Rory and his music to explore, I suggest A Million Miles Away, Calling Card, Walk On Hot Coals, Just The Smile, Overnight Bag. Some live performances: check out anything from Belfast 1984, Madrid 1975, but to get a feel of just how incredible Rory was 'Just a Little Bit' from My Father's Place, 1974 is a must listen, otherworldly stuff like you've never heard before. Anyway, thanks for a wonderful Rory reaction and keep on...

The medication he took for his fear of flying ruined his liver, he had a transplant but ended up dying from the complications the same year, 1995, he was 47. Rory was genuine and 100% about the music, nobody else like him, met him in March 1979 (the day after his birthday) it is a precious memory.

    Now try “I Could Have Had Religion” from Montreux in 1994. The creepiest blues performance since Robert Johnson. I suspect that one of the reasons Rory was never that popular was that he was a musician’s musician. One almost had to be a professional to grasp the full depth of Rory’s talent and the breadth of his knowledge of blues history.
    When Mick Taylor left the Stones they auditioned Rory, but he turned them down. Rory knew his worth.

    Definitely do some of his live performances, his solos were intense and several minutes long. A blues/rock legend, never gets the attention he deserved.

    Rory is a guy you have to watch live, with Macavoy, is monstous bassist....Watch the version of "Bullfrog Blues", at the end of the show in Paris, called "Live pour Chorus"😂He put so much energy, the audience come on stage, and Rory finish, climbing the amps, 😂😢MAGIC....It's the kind of guy you have to listen, and WATCH LIVE😂Peace from France ✌️

    Oh em geee! Finally! I'm one of many, I guess, who've suggested this one. Saw the notification and had to stop cooking to watch! The guitar intro is sooo good, and has the wonderful 1970s guitar rock sound.
    I was just listening to this in the car 2 days ago (I make sure my granddaughters are exposed to great stuff 😉)
    Be blessed ❤

    YOU really had to see him live , he was mesmerising ,saw him twice in late 70s with his trademark battered old strat , Shadow Play ,Tattooed Lady, Bullfrog Blues ,Hands off , Back In Your Town , just a few of many great songs by Rory ,he also does magic things on acoustic guitar check out his cover of Pistol Slapper Blues.

    Rory and his fantastic band were amazing live. You should watch them doing Shadow Play live in 1979 at Montreux. Thunderous drumming, monster bass, and Rory being Rory, one of the greatest guitarists and showman ever.

      I have to agree with ya sickhead, I’ve seen a few shows on tv and internet and even those live shows really showed how great of a musician he was. Rory was so amazing.
      He sure knew how to put on a great show.

    I saw Rory in concert three times back in the 70's. His shows were over the top! You've got to check out 'Messin With The Kid', and 'Bullfrog Blues'! You've got to listen to the live albums. Also, 'Going To My Hometown' live! His live music was so much better than the studio stuff! This man could play any instrument that has a string on it! One of the greatest!

    "Used To Be" is a rockin little number you should check out. I recommend the beat-club tv show live version. Fact: Sir Brian May of Queen openly admits his love of Rory and the fact that he copped Rory's tone combo of a Dallas-Arbiter Rangemaster treble booster into an absolutely cranked Vox AC 30 amp.

  • @valogden
    @valogden 7 месяцев назад +6

    Queen's guitarist Brian May credits Rory Gallagher for his signature sound. He said he and his friend waited after a show and he asked Rory about his setup and how he got his sound. He said he was so nice to them and spent time talking with them. Brian said he went out to a second hand store and bought some beat up equipment. He said he met up with him years later and he was just as nice and he thought it was maybe because he was a fellow recording artist but thought back and said he was the same as he was years before. Gary Moore also is on the same interview with Brian and talked about how great Rory was. Another great guitar player gone too soon.

    Rory is my all time favorite blues rock guitarist…..I was lucky to have seen him once when he came to DC in the 80’s.
    The Bad Penny cut you played is very good but you really need to check out a live clip. Shadow Play ( my fav ever Rory song prob ), Bullfrog Blues, Tattooed Lady is where I would send you first.
    His live videos really shows his rabid fans going nuts too. Thanks so much for playing my guitar hero…love your reviews!

    I have been to concerts in the 70s of the GOAT bands. And today, I always come back to Rory's music. I never got to see him perform live, but thanks to his millions of fans and RUclips, I have found my way to him in these performances. I can say that I have experienced his soul come through his music, which sets him apart as truly an original and is the GOAT. RIP Rory.
    Man. He takes you there and brings you back! Just love, love this! This is what I remember as original Rock and Roll, with blues, Celtic undertones, and real genuine showmanship (enjoying themselves!!!!!). I've heard a lot of bands, and I have my favorites through the decades (I'm 70). And I've put Rory as my #1 now, above Led Zeppelin. It's kind of hard to choose, but it's the guitar. Rory was just good at improv, fast and spot on! Page was clean, methodical, had ingenuity, but he doesn't compare to Rory putting his whole being into it. Classic forever!
