[orient1961]

Anyone know the name of the track after 35 seconds ?

[newmalte]

It's "Calling Card" ;)

[newmalte]

To be precisely... it's the recording from the 1976 concert in cologne, recorded in the WDR studio. I'am at least quite shure... It is my favourite recording of this song!

[rorrance]

Yes it's the title track from his album "Calling Card".

[xyzllii]

Very interesting.

Lay off the meths, dude.

[ePhilosopher]

we are we are, whisper to a scream, still don't ged it, all analog and all. Guy Krupa and Gupta. Always a fawn eyed cool and remote guy, dancing to whiskey a go-go. Apply directly to portishead. Repression, sounds like ching and yan. Analogically Spraken.

Nice one moonrocket.Superb footage.

[plj50]

The Irish version of Buddy Guy. An explosive talent who always gave 200%. I'll never forget seeing him live in 1972. How many artists would perform five encores on one night?

[daviemcf]

Rory will live on for ever through his music.

Awesome.

[liammcf]

couldn't agree more,miss the man so much.

[steveomedia]

Man...

Saying I miss Rory is an understatement. His performances left your body sweating and your face hurting from smiling all night. His slide guitar playing was off the hook. Rory Gallagher was one of a kind and truley contributed to haminity. There was such unity and joy and his concerts. Watching old live footage makes you wanna cry...I miss those good times.

[daviemcf]

I agree with every word.

I can't tell you how jealous I am that you even got to see him "steveomedia" and anyone else. I discovered Rory Gallagher less than a week ago and I've been spending hours on youtube trying to find as much footage of him as I can find.

In some ways I regret that Rory was never as big as the likes of Clapton (he deserved to be), but at the same time, I'm sort of glad he wasn't. His performances seem so honest and personal, far removed from Hollywood and "Showbiz".

[DirkjeA]

Sweety, he was even bigger than Clapton, known all over Europe and America and Asia. What did you think? he sold 5 milion copies of the Album with Taste, and that was only the beginning. Maybe he was not mainstream (I mean known in mainstream, not that his music was mainstream, far from it) but wellknown by a lot of fans. Btw, glad you did discover him too.

[grigorisgirl]

Absolutely wonderful!! I loved the guy.

BTW do you happen to have any of that concert that was put out as a tribute on the BBC a year or so after he died??

[SinnerBoy]

Moon, can't thank you enough for these.
