Nobody has said he used drugs they have said he had a great respect for doctors so the combination of taking PRESCRIBED medicine from doctors and drinking on top of that ruined his liver they didn't know the mixture of them back then was lethal.
I saw Rory all the times,he was here in DK:He was a honest musician.But,like many others to hard to him selve,with alcohol:This killed him! But he NEVER used any drugs!

To "Uberhandle" I am not a pimp, a prostitute, a druggie , or a whore and I have loved the blues for many years. If you're going to post something go ahead--you are doing all blues artists a great disservice when you do. I have a solution ! If you don't like a particular genre of music noboby asked you to watch and listen- you did that out of your own free will just so you can post all these negative messages. Keep your narrow mind out of this forum until you've something positive to say.
Blues musicians are all on something or trying to get off something or between addictions. The worse drama queens I've ever seen. Wallowing and wallowing.
Dear uberhandle, If you don't like the blues or Rory why did you watch this. Do you think people really care about your pompous posturing? Let go of your mouse, pull your pants up and go get a life.
Trying so hard to look like some musical genius he's not and the dumb sheep in the audience fall for it because they've dumbed themselves down with drugs and alcohol. Immitator. That's all he is, is a stylistic immitator. He does nothing original.
@artloveblues Sorry to be so hard on Rory, but I don't really like blues. Thanks for asking my opinion, I think John Spillane is an original folk musician. I saw an interview with him where he said he started off imitating American music, and then decided it felt fake, so did his own thing. Also I like Christy Moore, Saw Doctors & Paddy Reilly. And some others I like (not folk or blues) Hank Willaims Sr., George Jones, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, The Kinks, ELO, Nirvana, Pepe Romero.
@uberhandle You have no clue about music im afraid. All the musicians you mention are imitators. There music is built on old inspiration of the previous generation. I am a fan of all of them but ive never heard anything new or original from any of them. Yes rory based his music on blues but his style is unique. You obviously know nothing about blues. Thats why alot of blues guitarists cite him as an inspiration. And FYI pink floyd asked Rory to play for them, he said no.
@rosyface2k You're the one with no clue. These dumb kids think they're some kind of rebels, when in reality they're the biggest conformists. There's a reason why so many end up dead, or still alive but look dead. It's the ultimate adolescent self-mastubatory "art form". Of course it would give rise to ego-gratifying man-children like bono, who will never rise above his self-centerdness. If it's so great, why does everyone do drugs or get drunk to listen to it.
you're dumb fool yourself i mean if you see his pictures of when he was 30 he looks like a healthy guy.
But actually i think that Rory wasn't an imitator he did alot of his own thing but coverd also songs but most musicians do that, you pick a song you used to listen or still listening that has a meaning or just appealing to you, then you start covering it.
Yes very cool. The music industry has not changed much. Even The Beatles were over-produced in those days, and the Monkees were over-promoted. Taste were almost un-known outside of Ireland.
that is one hairy badger on that chick on stage,shit these days u wouldnt even root a chick with a bush like that....hahaha........apart from that ....Rory y did u leave us all???I'm glad had had the pleasure of meeting u and shaking ur hand....woooooooooooooooo
they unveiled a statue of rory in ballyshannon a few days ago at the rory gallagher festival.... it's brilliant. bound to be pictures if you google it.
That is WAY fucking Cool !!! Bands were so raw and Real in those daze !!! don't make'em like that anymore. We need to start Creating them agin and Kill off the American Idol / Studio generated Shit the industry so decievingly calls "Music" !!! What do Ya say Music Luvrs???
I think TheWolff is doing a good job too. They are dutch. Using 60-70's equipment, a hammond organ among others and Marshall amps. the play Rock and blues
@LoudMouthLarry123 Hehe Streaker! But SHHH keep quiet some muslim fucktard will flag it for offensiveness because of nudity! OR some Christian nutter, just to be fair!
If that's asking me yeah better by far than them two I prefered Rory when he was with Taste anyway and I like John Wilson's style of drumming a bit of jazz influenze there I think, and as for Richard McCracken I'd rate him along side Jack Bruce, fantastic bass player.
idk man i think jack bruces work on john mclaughlin's album electric guitarist and with tony williams in the tony williams lifetime is a little beyond this guy
Wish I could see a video of 'Live Taste' (Live at the Montreau Casino) for me the definitive versions of Catffish, Sugar Mamma, Feel so good, Gambling blues, and Same old story. but this 'Live at the Isle of White' comes a close second.
LSD... And well you know the person who did that were body guards, and she was on the stage, so called disturbing multiple people including the band members...
