Happy birthday. Rest in peace.

[mrsdth1943]

Happy Birthday Rory.!! I miss your smile, the light in your eyes and all the times I got to talk

to you backstage at the Cleveland Agora..miss our friendship..I love you Rory.

[Esclarmonde04]

Maybe Rory is in Heaven and he can hear and read our birthday wishes he's gratefully playing guitar right now and it sounds like a magic harp... Can't we hear it ? Happy birthday anyway.

[cathalufc]

happy birthday!

[garymac7435]

saw him at the ripley in Philly , around 1982 on south street-- tremendous

lots of special memories of Rory - thanx Gerry McAvoy for signing autograph for a very drunk but very sincere Glaswegian Rory fan

[hadders81]

Happy birthday Rory. Hope your rocking it up up there in heaven!

[guitarisoris]

Screw the david beckham commercial...get this sh### off of good music vids!

[MsXXstrikerXx]

tres grand,nous a quitter trop tot

[MrBluesStrings]

... And God made Rory. And Rory made Music.... RORY GALLGHER... what can we mortals say about Him? Just thank him for sharing some of his eternity here on earth and gifting us his aerial music. Always and forever RORY on the TOP.

Superb, big up for lou martin.

un concert de Rory à la foire aux vins de Colmar en 74 dans la petite salle, l avait fini le concert seul avec sa bouteille de Whisky et nous avec la notre le pied..........

[gogalicio]

1.) Justin Bieber

2.) Jimi Hendrix

3.) Rory...

That's the order folks... A self evident fact if I ever saw one.

Go on, I admit it. I have 11 Justin Bieber T shirts and the 2012 Bieber annual for Christmas. There. I've said it. Go on, laugh then. If this is wrong then I don't want to know what's right.

[Waggelken]

@gogalicio what teh fuck, 2 and 3 have nothing in common with 1...

[MrJeppelin]

@gogalicio Rory-fans don´t appreciate that kind of humor.

[MrJeppelin]

@gogalicio By the way, I have this on VHS. By todays standard, that´s humor.

[gogalicio]

@camelterrorist I heard he said go and ask Justin Bieber.

[hadders81]

@gogalicio you need help!!!

[watjanawa]

36 Bieber-fan have no idea and no heart about music!

[watjanawa]

Er wird für mich immer der beste Gitarrist und auch Musiker sein! R.I.P. Früh ohne soziale Bindungen,ohne Partner,kein Führerschein,zurückgezogen ohne manchmal für Wochen das Haus zu verlassen,dabei ein sehr freundlicher Mensch und Gentleman.Alles was er liebte war seine Musik und seine Kriminalromane(am liebsten auch von Einzelgänger).Einige bezeichneten ihn als"geizig",dabei fehlte ihm nur jeglicher Bezug zum Geld....missverstanden und alleine wie alle Borderliner.

[camelterrorist]

@watjanawa guten tag

[Aleksan11070]

I ja to isto kazem, puno gotivim hendriksovu gitaru, ali vise volim rorijeve stvari. Greetings from Belgrade!

[bboby62KV]

Rory is on the top at least for 40 years. Fun from Serbia.

[Aleksan11070]

The thing that a lot of Rory's fans write about Jimi's answer on interwievers question just confirmes that Jimi is num.1, otherwise they wouldn't write it. Rory is then number 2 with a big gap to the 3rd place, but for me Rory is the best rock composer ever!!!

Rory, man, I admire you!

[frusciantehero]

rory you live in our hearts!!!greece.....remember philadelphia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[LPD1962]

RORY IS A "GREEK REMBETIS" ........{MAN OF ALL WORLD }

[5919berti]

I saw him in Munich, when I was fifteen. Now I'm over fifty, but he`s still the best ever

[varg276]

I 'm 29 years Old... I Haven't Met Rory But

His Loss For Me Is Like Loosing My Best Friend ! ! !

Weird... But True ! ! !

Rest In Piece

[PARSA2152]

Greatest guitarist ever lived

[argi1968argi]

Rory για παντα!!! ....

Rory ρε κουφάλες

[stratocaster9631]

@argi1968argi Ne re file etsi!!!

[AndrewRyanable]

he optimized a musician he did it for the love of the music you cant have anything but respect for that

[thepoplar3]

they talk about thin lizzy & gary moore as originals but rory gallagher set the standards for all aspiring guitar players.we are in debt for the great legacy they all left behind.

[GodgiftFree]

[IndianaJ0e]

Reporter, in 1969: "So Jimi, what's it like to be the best guitarist in the world?"

Jimi Hendrix: "I don't know, ask Rory Gallagher."

[mateusgrazina]

Rory Gallagher - the most understimated guitar genius

[bornwithoutwarning]

Did Rory have a problem with alcohol? Not to be stereotypical - I'm of Irish descent myself - but merely asking because of his liver problems at a relatively young age.

I'm amazed by this man's talent. Wish he'd made more of a dent here in America. And I wish he was still around.

[sniperkneupper]

@bornwithoutwarning from what i've heard it's not that he necessarily drank anymore than an normal dude just maybe 3 or 5 beers before a concert. The problem was he had problems with his wrists so he would take tylenol when he played as well as drinking beer. That'll kill your liver right quick.

[theREALbigbluesfan]

Here's to the legend!

RIP Rory.

[GpeterKostwinder]

My favorite guitarist, for ever living on (L)

[KarenWoods1]

.... always in our hearts, Rory

[begijnenstraat]

Rory lives...in my heart

greetings from Antwerp

[funkadelicatelady]

hell wow!!!

[kickniko]

Read that somewhere else hier in youtube, so the idea is definitely not from me but I guess it makes the point: R.I.P, Return If Possible, Rory.

From me is only, return if possible Rory, for we are already flooded with nonsense presented as "music". Be it in windy bays or elsewhere.

[anonymouslolxD]

is this on a DVD? what is it called?

[3831M]

@anonymouslolxD the irish tour dvd :P recently remastered and now sold by eagle rock vision

[padraichorgan]

One of the greatest regrets of my life,that I never saw Rory live!Could have,should have but was transfixed by Horslips at the time.Still love love Horslips and have seen them many,many times but deeply regret never having seen this great Irishman!

[youmschafft]

Such a great person

[Qoooba95]

so much feeling

[Trower22]

Meilleur morceau de Rory Gallagher. "Non le journaliste a demandé qui est le plus grand guitariste du monde" et Jimi Hendrix à répondu "posez plutôt cette question à Rory Gallagher". Jimi Hendrix n'a pas répondu simplement "Rory Gallagher".

[hanniganfrank]

Thank you!

Beautiful music on the weekend of the Cork Jazz Festival and great video too!

[makmukmakmuk]

[makmukmakmuk]

@NoRosesForMe

[pimpdaddyz45]

but in my own opinion he's the greatest guitarest ever

[pimpdaddyz45]

not true

[zjraznatovic]

Gallagher is pure genius and humble genius...who can be compared Rory?

[TheUmnaya]

Рори Гэллахер - неповторим.

[spursareshit]

Shame that it's edited at 7:40

[clikityclak]

I have the same birthday as Rory :D and yes.. it gives me GREAT inspiration haha

[Burncourtable]

Love cork city and cork women but i dont get home much anymore. Always found people pretty sound in Cork compared to Dublin. The bar and night life scene is better in cork. Real people

[WoodstockHiker]

I worked in Cork for a couple of years. There was this cool little Rory Gallagher themed Cafe down by the river. I used to go there for breakfast sometimes and just chill. Great little place. I wonder if its still there.

[TheVelvetBride]

Rest in peace, dear Rory. For me the most attractive part of your music has always been the feeling of warmth and honesty in your voice and guitar sound that no one else has. :)) :*

[jplafoot]

clapton woulndt make a good pimple on rorys ass

[cathcronin1]

You are not that far away really cousin Rory!

You are in your family's hearts forever!

[nicko666]

favorite quote,

When jimi Hendrix was asked at woodstock in 69:

"how does it feel to be the greatest guitar player in the world"

Jimi replied:

"i don't know, ask Rory Gallagher that question"

[TakovskyPoetOfCinema]

This is so fucking sick!

[fondofrory]

I just can't imagine if rory gallagher joined the Stones .... Would be so powerfull during blues song .. But anyway Rory Gallagher is a genius .. He don't need a lil girl like Jagger and a junkie like Richards for being the greatest guitarist in this world ..

[WoodstockHiker]

I wish i was born in the 50's or 60's (not our time) and know then what i know now.

[MusicTheCore]

Fantastic song, i do a cover of this with my band and like MrHerenz says it's an incredibly powerful song. I'd appreciate it if you could give our video a look and let me know what you think? Have a look at the others whilst you're there too if you will. They're all on our channel.

[mozzie150]

SC.......Well done. Most Excellent.

[ironseb1994]

Journalist: "How it is to be the greatest guitar player of the world ? "

Hendrix: "Ask Rory Gallagher"

True interview

[moneyquickeasy]

@ironseb1994 the legend goes he said Phil keaggy.

[lordofthejungle]

@moneyquickeasy - Keaggy didn't play at Electric Ladyland until after Hendrix died, Keaggy doesn't think it's possible himself anyway and he was only 20 at the time. Taste and Jimi both played the Isle of Wight Festival and that's supposedly where Jimi said it.

[6378962ROCK]

@ironseb1994 he actually said ask Jimmy Page :P

[papapansy]

@ironseb1994 They both come out of this looking cool as hell...

[BludySkinz]

@ironseb1994 actually its: I d'ont know, ask Rory Gallagher !

[fondofrory]

@ironseb1994 true ^^

[inouii]

doubtful claims especially regarding cream and stones but had that been the case certainly a good choice

[clikityclak]

That first bend gets me every time!

[MrHerenzeventien]

A true classic. Very powerful. I played this song a million times in the dark period after my divorce.

I was actually amazed that a lot of Irish people I met do not know this man!

You Irish should be very, very proud of this great artist and teach your kid in school about him.

The version on the live album is slightly different to this one.

Please listen to his version of Bad Penny live at Montreux if you like this.

Love to all the Irish people. I really love your country and culture

[Orcsmashurbelf]

@MrHerenzeventien bad penny live paris 1980 is better

[MrHerenzeventien]

@Orcsmashurbelf : You're right! Thanks for the tip.

[Orcsmashurbelf]

@MrHerenzeventien hey no prob its a great video i play it at least ten times a day haha

[ulty77]

@MrHerenzeventien thanks mate, where u from? i actually live just 10 miles from where rory was from in ballyshannon. i go to the RG festival every year, u ever at it?

[MrHerenzeventien]

@ulty77 You live close to Ballyshannon? I sometimes go for my work to Killybegs. I think it's not to far from your place. Is the RG festival a good one with live music?

I'm from Holland. All the best to you

[Raindogno7]

The guy is my hero, my first album was live in europe my first ever album.my uncle gave it to me when i started playing guitar when i was 8 yrs old in 1983.i remember exactly where i was the day he passed.This is a great version.I was just this morning playing along to "in your town" and "laundromat" Apparently Hendrix was asked what it wass like to be the greatest guitarist in the world he replied " i don't know man ask Rory Gallagher.His music is my medicine.R.I.P.

[jackba14]

I saw Rory twice in 74---unbelievable--- than in 78 went to see him again, but the show was cancelled---no internet than---



[don56texas]

Saw him in 75 in dallas....he made an impression that has lasted a lifetime. back in the day I used to cover this song with my band.

[tramidi]

@don56texas lucky you.. never had the chance to see him. I went to his grave recently to pay my respects. Rory is always going to be a legend

[aksteb412011]

the best bass player in rock music

[wheelsonfire65]

no one better - still get lost in rory songs

[DUI59]

Rory was awesome - Saw him two consecutive and glorious nights in 1973 ...

[MrJeppelin]

I´m sitting here feeling down over a cancelled Morrissey gig in Sweden. Well I have the chance o see him again two days from now but I don´t care anymore. The show was cancelled due to heavy rain on Morrissey´s demand. There is a debate about that. Anyway I don´t think Rory would cancell on those notes. And there is no second chance to see him again.

[XPS9100Boy]

I'm pretty sure God channels the blues through Rory.

[TheTvrulesthenation]

I want this at a million hits this time next week. Hey get it ? A million :P

[patjstephens]

Rory you were a good man and your music is timeless!

[MTBfreak10]

würde den gefällt mir knopf 50000 mal drücken

[rockhunterwoman]

Confesso que não consigo tirar essa música da minha cabeça...e nem pretendo...Rory Gallagher se entregava de corpo e alma a cada música,

com muita paixão!

[mr4teth]

32 water heads .....

[dm3830]

only saw him live once, Sydney in the 80s, unforgettable, some young fan ran onto stage, bouncers were about to flatten the guy, Rory shielded him and they sang ShadowPlay together, the entire theatre went bats as the fan sank to his feet at the end of the song and washed Rorys feet with our collective tears of admiration

[3831M]

@dm3830 he died before i was even born :/ i'm only 15 but i'd do a lot to see him once...

[micheal370]

@3831M rory gallagher fest in ballyshannon county donegal ireland is prob as close u will get (june bank Holiday weekend)

[3831M]

@micheal370 thanks :) i hope i'll be there one day. checked the site but the dates for 2012 aren't up there yet. again thanks :)

[day44music]

Love RG what a loss RIP Rory one of the best of the best.

peace

[rockhunterwoman]

I love so much, GREAT RORY GALLAGHER!!

[panagiotalovesmusic]

I love this song.RORY GALLAGHER was awesomeee...

[paddibaldi]

Saw and heard him unplugged in the RTC in Cork Ireland. He cemented the idea we COULD succeed. I rarely have seen someone play both ends of the guitar simultaneously, And with such passion.

[Sober695]

gamiola ksenitia!!!!!!!

[fetuswrangler]

rory rory rory ! what can you say he does belong with all the other greats playing in heavens band

[9903kateyes]

Wonderful Cork scenery,great song,wonderful RORY!

[TheWheeliebug]

Hendrix & Clapton aren't overrated. They're both extraordinary exponents, of their chosen styles. Rory was another player, in their league. We should be grateful, to have been able to experience the genius, of all 3 of them.

[doncarlosgallagher]

14 - 6 - 1995 / 14 - 6 - 2011 -- 16 χρόνια χωρίς τον Ρόρυ, αλλά εξακολουθούμε να τον ακούμε.

[stigsdatter]

R.I.P. Rory - so sadly missed, I love your music .... need to hear it every day .....need to hear it every day .....

[TheMarsupilami7]

το τραγουδι ειναι ενα ειδος αντιδοτου και νιρβανας για την ψυχη

νιωθω ασχημα που ο Ρορυ μας αφησε την χρονια που γεννηθηκα και δεν προλαβα κατι

ΡΟΡΥ ΘΡΥΛΕ

[Sober695]

ΡΟΡΥ! ΘΕΕΕΕΕΕΕΕ !

[gigadickwads]

much loved and very much missed

[MartyXP]

I just wonder why the studio version is a nice song, while the live one is mind blowing...

[cruithneuladh]

One of Ireland's finest, I saw him on the Irish Tour "74, absolutely amazing!

Thanks Rory, for some amazing music, adh mor ort!

Clapton was very overrated, but his huge commercial success has cemented his reputation. Hendrix came from the dawn of electric guitar wizardry when loud noise, feedback and hot licks stunned the masse
