  • Steve vai, joe sat, clap etc but this guy was the best because cant think of one guitarist in all time that

    expressed the guitar in such emotion which is wat its all about.

  • Absolutely awesome,many thanks for posting!!

  • whats happened music

  • God damn it! Look at that at 0:47! Those were great days! When the stage was centimeters away from the audience! That was direct contact with the audience. A big plus in the whole experience. Not like now that it's 10 meters away and even when you are in front you need binoculars to see the artist playing! Where did the magic go?

  • Rolling Stone Magazine know nothing! Rory was awesome. the best.

  • excellent...

  • Now, DID YOU EVER?

  • Great, still great, what a guitarplayer, what a sound, what a track, i'll live forever and ever and ever ............

  • and long live youtube...i love it

    another awesome gallagher performance

    love it...

  • FUCK ITUNES !

  • Pure positve energy in highest amounts !

  • the master, end of, full stop. nuff said!

  • First band I ever saw - Taste - he was a humble wonderful genius. Interviewed him once. Never beaten

  • to bad this not on itunes...i cant get it on my ipod

  • by canned heat is best much..:)

  • ACDC beside this seems like the Cinderella.

  • ....no one has ever come close to this....srv may have been a demi god...hendrix may have been able to play with his teeth...but this guy was insane

  • yes yes yes yes!!!

    yesyesyesyes

    THIS GUY WAS INSANE !!!!! THE GOD OF GUITAR!!

  • yes:)

  • @hangman1995

    I see him more as an alternate version of Stevie Ray. He certainly isn't "better" than either of them. Saying any one of Stevie Ray and Rory were better than each other is simply wrong and saying ANYONE was better than Hendrix is simply pretentious and ignorant.

  • AC/DC are to overated.....

  • I would like him to come to barcelona and not shit ACDC fuck.

  • Sorry tell ye mean he died in 1995

  • No, he died on June 14, 1995, I have a video in his honor. That's why I say that I would like to see him and not to acdc.

  • that would be tricky, because he died years ago....

  • Wikipedia.con = Rock and Roll was discovered in 1980 in Paris.

  • Punkrock Blues...

  • Yeah---now we got Snoop Dog instead of this---thanks MTV!

  • to quote dead kennedys: MTV get off the air !

  • thank you m tv for taking real talent away from us holy blistered fingers lucky enough 2 c him live in boston 1978 my head is still somewhere in paradise club over 2 hours of the same intensity in this vid if head found throw in garbage AMAZING

  • this is not the 1977,is the 1980 at some tv-show on the france television!!!

  • anyone know the date of this concert??

  • Rory the best

  • THE BEST!

  • so underated its a crime ...just goes to show that most of the so called experts don't know their arse from their elbows ...for me Rory was a class above Jimmy Page/Paige....better than Clapton and could out do any of the Yanks ....yet he's ignored these days ..

  • Wow! That slide-solo is one of the coolest things i've seen lately. With that outragious bassplayer and the dancing audiance. It's got early heavymetal in it, and some punk, a lot of rock'n roll and of course this incredible whiteman southern-blues. Really genious.

  • did you ever woooooooooooooooooooo what a rec ord the best rock guitar ever

  • OMG!!! So GreaaAaAAaaT!!! Wow!!!

  • he was and is the best

  • the best. ever. fkn right!

  • oh yeah!!

  • The world needs Rory Gallagher, a sad, sad loss. I miss him. Thanks fer postin this

    Boaby

  • better even clapton

  • Makes the Sex Pistols sound like Cat Stevens

  • You said it right Mac

  • @mcleanartists ...ha ha ha makes cat stevens sound like pussycat......

  • Devastating combination of passion, talent and performance. Rory was the real deal. Posers like Kid Rock and many of today's ilk aren't worthy of breathing the same air.

  • Hey,

    Rory roared in my day... he should (and could) have been the talent that Jack White aspires to.

  • it's 1980.

  • I can play most of the bass solo :)

  • Angus took influences from Chuck Berry mainly, I think AC/DC started around the same time as Rory[probably wrong] but if you look this was 5 years after AC/DC released their first album

  • And 9 years after Rory released his first album, 11 years if you count Taste. Rory also was influenced by Chuck Berry, Eddie Cochrane, Buddy Holly, and many others.

  • so why you talk if you dont know. Gallagher was about 5 years earlier than the AC DC and many others but this kind of competitors talk in music is just empty speech. Go and play yourself and than have public like those who know all better all the time.

  • YES! Kick ass!

  • The sound quality isnt great, but with a true artist it doesnt matter

  • Any fans get their asses to Ballyshannon every june for the rory gallagher festival in donegal ireland. its the place he was born and you'll never experience anything like it. Been there every year since the start!!!

  • derrygerry - Have you seen Rorrence Gallagher play live?

  • So much soul, so much passion, so much energy, man like this will never walk on the earth again! Rory you are living in our hearts!!!

  • Angus Young most have taken influencese of Rory when AC/DC started their rockshow.........

  • Where's his STRAT????

  • i think he used a telecaster when he was doing the slide stuff

  • i think gerih333 is right in alot lists of greatest guitar players im missing one name RORY !!! Why is he for gotten? Cos i my opinion he was one of the best! Ow yea what guitar is he playing?

  • Rory was afraid of flying which limited his touring in the USA which might have hurt his popularity...not that Rory was that much into thewhole celebrity thing....(IMHO)

  • Absolutely outstanding! i've never seen anything like this! pure energy!

  • whahahaha he own!

  • 'cause they r dickheads, maybe?

  • I saw him live 1979 in Germany. Please ... EVERYBODY OUT THERE: Please tell me and respond, how, HOW could Rolling Stone Magazine forget about putting him under the Top-100 Rock-Guitarists? You find the list on the magazine´s own site via intern search - read who´s there and compare. Quit buying the magazine, all I can say ...

  • Because they are a bunch of twats?

  • @gerih333 rory woulnd not care at all if he is in the top 100 or not, he didn't play for recognition..

  • @gerih333 He should be in top 5, for sure. Maybe even higher...

  • @gerih333 yeah dude, totally freakin' stupid....even Hendrix said Rory is the best!

  • im surprised the hall was still standing after that, he absoutly destroys the place..

  • I know they're all 'awesome' on you tube, but for once...

  • If this don't make you jump outta yer skin, yer dead.

  • This is how it's done.

    Rory knows how to let the crowd rock.

  • A genius!

  • Rory is God!!!

  • i just think no words can even come close to describing this!!!!!!!! COME ON RORY!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Now that's what you call audience participation. Love your shirt Rory!

  • So cool how he mingled with the audience. RIP Rory. We miss you.....

  • bullfrog blues was rorys finest moment ever.the tune that got me hooked on him from a Sounds free plastic disc 70 something

  • awesome slide...is that a Dan electro?

  • amazing...

  • Never knew much about the guy until I happened to be at a gig in Leeds in the late 80's - blew me away, he summed up live music - you could tell he loved it as much as his audience - GENIUS!!

  • all i say is....legend

  • what a showman...and yet he mananged it in such a down to earth way unlike many other rock bands of the 70's

  • pure rock n roll, this chuck berry style riff rules all the time

  • WOW...

  • Hahaha fuck me!!

    Man he was soo friggin' good!

    Wicked wicked player and stupifying energy!

  • This version isn't from 1970..

  • Saw this done live in 1970 at the Kelvin Hall in Glasgow. Tremendous base solo by Gerry NcAvoy. A pal of mine tried to storm the stage single handed and was kicked in the teeth by a bouncer. Also my brother was dancing about with hsi eyes shut and punched a lassie in the mouth by accident. Her boyfriend was not amused.

    HAPPY DAYS!!!!

  • the greatest guitarist that ever lived...period.

  • A french tv programme! No wonder they built a statue for hime in paris, on that kinda performance he deserved it.

  • Fuck me running, that guy was great! Never seen anybody connect with an audience like that.

  • quite simply the MAN filmed almost 37 years ago and what have we got now. CHEERS

  • WHAT A SHOWMAN !!! thank you rory

  • rory is mint. its 2 bad he died when i was like 6 :(. i would have loved to gone and see him live. that would have rocked \m/.

    and musician ever ! True to his music and true as a friend . Miss you Rory !!!!

  • Oho!!! Year 1970??? Unbelievable...Really rockn roll!

  • Another gobshite who sais he should been in the status quo,he is an infinity of universes greater than the bloody status quo.

  • does he jam in open tunings? slide work like that would be quite crazy in standard, not that its not crazy in general.

  • He could make that guitar talk, can you? Donegal will never die.

  • Man Thanks to my friend Jim Glynn for dragging me to my first Rory Concert! Saw him about 6 times total and loved it all and still have dreams where I play like Rory. He's the best. Went to Dublin like 15 years ago and did a pub crawl of all the places he played:) that was cool
