Rory Gallagher - McAvoy Boogie

[BillMinworth]

Tuned to e capo at third = g

[tidepoolbay]

Or is it in standard tuning with the capo in the third fret that makes it the key of F#.

Or in G the capo on the third fret makes it A#.

[tidepoolbay]

I think it is in open G.

[slicklicks119]

I wish he and Duane coulda jammed...

[Taildragger2411]

This is real music .not the rubbish they have now.

[bfoconnor03]

I saw Rory in 1969 when he was with Taste, in Belfast N. Ireland. I've been a lover of great music since. I was 15yrs old. Still miss him.

[TheOBOM]

Abso - effing - genial! The man was a Virtuoso for sure.

[ScotRanger1960]

Lip-Synch is out.

[danephillips]

Most have never heard of him .... Gifted hands

[bornwithoutwarning]

What kind of guitar is he playing here? Doesn't seem to be his sunburst strat. Anyone know the story?

[RoryStratoBlues]

@bornwithoutwarning

Music Master 1978

[bornwithoutwarning]

@RoryStratoBlues Might be a Music Master but this was filmed in 1972.

[WhoIsPine]

@bornwithoutwarning i justed assumed it was a tele :/

[waltinhopai]

O cara era realmente muito bom!Alias,continua sendo um dos maiores e melhores guitarristas da história da música recente.Grande Rory Gallagher!!!

[chazzdurden]

It ain't easy to play like that !! me makes it looks easy though.... and the expression on his face is priceless !!! :)

[adrianbrennan]

there is always one prick! love you rory!...and mcAvoy family :P

[bobmark13]

1 person had it on mute

[Seanus32]

@bobmark13 Or sliced his finger on the string. Dumb fooker!

[shredmaster100]

american blues players today like bonamassa have nothing compared to rorys talent

[55markiza]

@shredmaster100 you're right

[shredmaster100]

thank god someone who agrees with me because whenever i go onto a video of joe bonamassa and dont like it about a million of his trolls start ranting at me they have no idea what true blues is about if they did they would be watching rory instead of joe

[55markiza]

@shredmaster100 I have to agree with you, because Rory is the best of the best

[shredmaster100]

yeah what i liked the most about rory was he looked as if hed just come off a building site and then he picks up the guitar and kicks the audiences ass ive got his live at moontreux dvds and its different concerts he did and in every one he gives a great performance and had a very good sense of humour

[roryg4ever]

@shredmaster100 if only they acknowledged that joe looked up to rory.not that joe isnt good,he's just not rory.

[shredmaster100]

i saw a good interview on youtube slash talks about rory gallagher and he even says how great he was i think its for a film called ghost blues documentary about rorys career

[roryg4ever]

@shredmaster100 i saw that one.it says a lot when a person someone else considers the greatest ackowledges the true greatest and calls rory his idol.rory is the best but it does'nt bother me that someone else has a different favourite because we cant all be the same.what bothers me is when they come and slate rory for the sake of causing an argument.what i say to them is this-you cant argue when slash,vivian campbell,brian may,johnny marr and jimi hendrix have already said it

[shredmaster100]

i think most of them dont know who he was they probably think hes that guy out of oasis and anyway he was the most underrated player ever just like gary moore people didnt realise how good he was till he died and the thing i like the most about rory is he didnt want to be a larger than life rock star like hendrix page or slash he just wanted to play the music and basically he was a working class hero and more people need to check his music out because it is the blues

[roryg4ever]

@shredmaster100 yep and he was called liam rory so im not surprised if people get confused over the names.two opposites.one a prat,the other a hero

I tell all my friends about rory but as im a 25 year old woman,most of them dont get it.I hate the poo they listen to but such is life

[shredmaster100]

all this x factor rubbish is driving me crazy i hate being alive in this generation the music sucks and all these young kids today either want to be gangsters or pop stars and thats the only 2 musicall trends around at the moment we need more people like rory gallagher and gary moore to teach the kids real music and rory was a good role model you wouldnt see him going about with a knife threatening old people i mean i play guitar well but no ones interested 2day its all pop music

[bhedrock]

@shredmaster100 Tell it like it is, bro'.

[shredmaster100]

thanks man im so pissed off with all this x factor rubbish simon cowell should be hung in the street like mussolini

[liamstyper]

@shredmaster100 fuck sake my friend that would be to good for the cunt..... after this bottle of jamisons i'll come up with something more suitable for the bastard!

[shredmaster100]

yeah we need to take out the trash as in getting rid of cowell walsh and morgan 3 wankers who ruined the music industry

[bfoconnor03]

@shredmaster100 Your fucking right there!

[shredmaster100]

yeah i know m8 just a shame more people wont wake up to the fact that the music we see on MTV VH1 etc is not real music its all pop hip hop rap or dance music basically mass produced rubbish that any moron could produce and real music was in the 50s,60s,70s and 80s after that music just became pop real music is blues rock metal country rockabilly and to a certain extent funk and soul thats real music i hope we get another musician like stevie ray vaughan hed teach kids real music

[sploctopus]
