Rory Gallagher Million Miles Away The Old Grey Whistle Test Live

[wonbadood]

His early solo albums will always rate "100% and pushing" as theyre totally unique. 40 years on and still nothing comes close to the creativity of this humble sweet man. I dont usually use the word but hes a "legend", (to me anyway). 1 dislike, Huh, Theres Always One

[TheChris1521]

Awesome, only awesome......he is the GREATEST...

[HammerharterErni]

Rory  was the greatest Bluesman

[boogyfish]

I was lucky enough to see Rory play in Milwaukee WI USA around 1972 or so...he has been an inspiration to me ever since...what an exceptional guitarist, singer, and person...gone too soon but never ever forgotten.

[JLPMGHRS69]

Why is it all the Great ones Pass. God must have a reason.But there is one thing,the music will always be here for us to love. I really miss Rory one of the best to serve us with the great music he gave us.R.I.P Rory.......

[dictator54]

someone was sayin how that strat didn't sound good wat a lame fukin statement, it wud fetch a big dollar if it ever went on sale but yur rite it's on display'it's reputed to be the first strat in ireland.

[gr3g117]

why this guy is for me... like a god?

[larjanus]

The Strat is now the property of Rory's brother and resides in a museum. Google it for more info.

[djconFFS]

@larjanus Late 6 months but have to say this. This Strat has no owner other than Rory himself.

[TranceNotes]

I saw Rory in concert twice: 1972 at the Southsea Pier, Portsmouth, and the second was 1980 at the Lewisham Odeon. At the first gig his only amplification was a Vox AC30! At the second gig he was probably him at his best. The lead breaks were utterly hypnotic. I wonder who owns that stratocaster now...

[burcki]

Hoffentlich wirst Du bald wiedergeboren !

[CrazyEiche]

@burcki bin schon

[dantean]

Great post! Is it me, or does he look, well, fat here? 

[MrZiffnab]

I like it, that every live perfomance of Rory sounds different. So it's really nice just clicking through the live perfomances on Youtube.

But that's a really strange version. So much gain. I like it...

PS: excuse my bad English please, greetings from Germany

R.I.P. Rory

[Asterixx46]

It's not one of the best versions.

I think the version on the Irish Tour CD is one of the best!

[ProdigalSin]

I was lucky enough to see him once back in the 70's in Los Angeles with Status Quo and a band called Fandango he was amazing iv'e been a fan ever since i'm just sorry i never saw him live more than once. thanks for the post this is a great video.

[drewandbailey1]

My god, this is the first time a song has actually brought a tear to my eyes.

[memtown]

This was obviously near the end for Rory. God Bless him.

[Dukabor]

@memtown agree memtown....a shell of his former self...and God Bless...he was friggin awesome in his day and prime...this video is actually sad to me...

[dwstonemasonry]

that man could make a guitar sing!

[rorypappa]

thanks

[TALIE92300]

@rorypappa merci

[Burgerphile]

If God exists, when Rory arrived in heaven He took off His hat and bowed at him.

[17lio]

Not so far, still in our hearts.

Thanks for the share rorypappa.

Reminds me a concert in Lorient (France) in the 90's.

[maqnusl]

tack, kanon bra. Började av en tillfällighet lyssna på Rory igen i somras när jag målade huset. På äldre dar gillar jag nu speciellt Rorys senaste inspelningar

[woundedtree1]

someone post tattoed lady!!!!

[garagerocker48]

I saw him at last in Belgium in 1994 a little while before he past and I was very touched

[FUNKYTRIPUNKY]

one of my best songs ever, thanks rory...

[AspergerL]

This is awesome... but it's so different from the earlier live versions of this song... as if though they didn't really rehearse it a lot . Great solo.

[padraig314]

This isn't from the Old Grey Whistle test, it was the Intercelt Festival, Lorient 1994

[LondonKumamoto]

fucking hell, ..the tone! !

[SanchezMustache]

The tone, my God the tone...

[seb180692]

@SanchezMustache Je préfère celui du début des années 1970

[reno2071985]

legend + he was born in Co Donegal

[andyboykelly]

donegal by birth, cork by the grace of god ;-)

[pitsunami]

[seanreillyireland]

[rorypappa]

thanks for comment

[rorypappa]

thank you

[roryfan16]

Excellent.

C'est bien Lorient 1994 !

La fin est superbe....dommage que son dernier solo soit trop court...

Bel hommage.

Merci Rorypapa.

[rorypappa]

thanks for comments

[daviemcf]

Great performance from the G man...must've been one of his last.

[foudeballe]

He says "Merci beaucoup" with his Irish accent. This concert may have taken place in Paris. My guess would be "Taverne de l'Olympia" early nineties. You can see he's already very sick but man can he still perform!

[foudeballe]

Got it! It was in Lorient (France) 1994

[rorypappa]

thank you .and greetings

[rorypappa]

thanks for comments

[RoryJim]

No, this song is not form "The Old Grey Whistle Test. It's an Isle of Wight festival :)

Anyway, thanks! Great Rory!
