look at the video timewindow, from 1:30 until 2:30, is was one of the best rock overdrive flageolett tone, the best string bending vibrator, ever, ain`t nobody white was playing the blues like him ( look for video from Rory in the timewindow from 1968 to 1988 ) he blows a hole generation of guitar players away, even Clapton, Hendrix, Beck, Page, Lee, Winter, SRV, Moore, and others
He indeed was so ahead of his time...I fully agree with SparkiiSilver...This is, to me, the archetypical Punk (!) / Hard Rock song of all times!...Rory Ruled...R.I.P.
Rory is easily the greatest guitarist of all time. Rory, Johnny Winter and Duane Allman. its sad the fact that most people who apparently have "taste" would rate Clapton as a superior guitarist. Sure Clapton made his mark in music, but so have many others. He will never be as superior as these guys. He isn't as raw, as soulful or adventurous as these guys. RIP Rory
rory gallagher ένας αληθινός άνθρωπος. Είναι χαρακτηριστικό το πάθος που ζωγραφίζεται στο πρόσωπό του όταν τραγουδάει. Τον βλέπεις πως το νοιώθει το κάθε κομμάτι που λέει. Χρησιμοποιώ ενεστώτα χρόνο και όχι αόριστο γιατί ο RORY για εμάς υπάρχει ακόμα στις καρδιές μας...
Σωστά τα λες φίλε.Πάρα πολύ σωστά.Ο Ρόρυ δεν πέθανε ποτέ,είναι εδώ και στοιχιώνει εμάς και τα όνειρα μας.Πέθανε 2 χρόνια αφού γεννήθηκα και πραγματικά θα έδινα μάλλον τα πάντα για να είμαι σε ένα λάιβ του.Να γυρίσω πίσω τον χρόνο για να τον δω.
@helidoum Filmed at Middlesex Polytechnic, somewhere near London UK - 1979. Don't think its on a published DVD but sincerely wish it was. They were all on fire that night!!!!
Think it maybe part of the BBC 'Rock goes to College' series but have no proof, and can offer no more help.
@makisvamvakidis I first heard Rory playing with the band "taste", and I thought "that's some weird sounding stuff". He started growing on me, and soon, I could hardly listen to anything else. Rory gets in your head and doesn't let go.
rory was so ahead of his time it was unbelievable , he was the best player around. no one could even have a go at doing that. stuff "feel". rory knew what he was doing, he knew how to play, he had the theory and he had the technical skill. BEST GUITARIST EVER. YEAH
@guajinho Es BESTIAL ES DIOS, el supremo de la música. A mi me hace feliz hasta que exista Ireland jajaja. Ya no ser Irlandés, no, hasta poder pisar esa tierra sólo por Rory me hace Feliz, jajaja.
Bodba, I love the Irish people, and Rory is one of them! And you suffer a lot under the British government through these years, how is politics today, is it better for you?
that was a long time ago just like world war 2. its over now. i don't like to talk about it. its only people at the top like rulers make lower classes hate other races anyway. my best friend is from engalnd. its n the past. england is a great country nad i don't look back, i look forward by living in the present. ireland has come out of its infancy unlike alotta countires i could think of. we are way ahead of america on that regard and europe too i think when it comes to immigrants and racism.
Rory was the best..... We miss you.... Love Rory
