[tigerspuds]

@jplafoot What? A Fender Strat? lol

[PBANDSNOW]

@jplafoot Dude...almost every guitarist (with a lot of exceptions) play Stratocasters. Their cheap, sturdy, and bright.

[diskmusic]

Three people didn't like this, that's funny very funny.

If you don't like Rory you don't like guitar music end of!

He is guitar music at it's most amazing. A GOD!

[charger4079]

"Trying to find my way"

"Shadow play" Rory-YOU ARE THE MAN!!!

[sindrenord89]

the sound of his guitar gives me goosebumps all over!

[DUNNING1980]

Surely no one can Deni . He was the best , He may be gone but his music will live on till the end of time !!!!!!

[OrAnOxBaRaToNeZ]

I was at this show.The gig was so good,I went back the next night.The man was awesome,and the music business misses people like Rory for his talent and also for his modesty in this wannabe world we live in.

[tomroller1]

i want to thanks my dad for bringing me back to REEL music!!! whit out him i wouldnt discover Rory and he is the best thing on heart and unfortunatly in paradise...

R.I.P Rory... i hope that god is happy to have you beside him

[sidewaysid]

God..God..God loned you mate never missed you in manchester loads of us cut our teeth on you pal RIP

[PatandUli]

Ireland.........The land of hope and RORY

[amimillie]

Read my lips. No-one, repeat, no-one was better than him. I'm so sorry he was not blessed with good health. Hendrix knew guitarists, for Christ's sake - and even he said Rory was the one. RIP Rory you wonderful genius.

[LeRoiDelaRue]

Joy springs from his very being

He celebrated life, it shows in his words, tune and lilt

How must he have felt singing this song there at that time ...

v.v. "Tell Me Why Everyone's Insane!!!"

Please God I get to sit on a celestial bough and take a bevvy with him and The Man one day in Eternity

and talk

and make music

.... soddin emotional now

:-)

but then there is Life, innit

Unforgetable and still uncopiable.

[GeorgeC2009]

I love how he doesn't care that people are getting on the stage and hugging him, he just carrys on! I wonder what he was thinking at the time haha

[rayniac21]

i could kill for His guitar....

[davidquirke1]

Jimi Hendrix was seemingly asked by a reporter coming off stage one night..."what does it feel like being the best guitar player in the world"? and the legend has it he replied .... "i don't know, ask Rory Gallagher"!

Fact or Fiction?....i'd say Fucking Fact!!!

[tyrian23]

@davidquirke1 I've heard the same story but instead he says "I don't know, ask Terry Kath" To be honest I'm pretty sure the story is apocryphal

[davidquirke1]

@tyrian23 no i think it was at woodstock...well after hendrix finished up and was coming off stage!!

[ballbreaker3000]

my ma and da where at that gig, lucky gits!!

[maasai123456789]

I thank god on my bare knees that had a chance to see this man live in '79, man he was sooooo very very loud....

[asdesas]

@maasai123456789 Same here, same year! A life changing event in every way. My ears are still ringing and my heart's never stopped pumpin' with the energy. I pity future generations who don't have the chance to bask in the wild glory of Rory in his heyday.

[bannork]

My favourite version of Shadow Play. The greatest rock n roller, Rory takes you high with no discernible side effects, god bless him.

[SKYVOLTAGE]

I cry almost every time I see and hear Rory Gallagher.

Something so honest and sincere happens.

There is nothing but integrity in every note.

The Loyalty between artist and audience...and audience and artist is unparalleled.

It's like Rory is your best friend in all the world.

A friend who will never ever let you down.

God Bless You Rory Gallagher.

[herk1952]

Simply the Best. Rory displays so much personality on stage it is unbelievable. By contrast, Clapton looks quite constipated and bothered. These "Live" videos display Rory's charisma in such a way that can't be seen on a studio album.

Thank God for "You Tube".

[tigerarmyrule]

@herk1952 You are so right. I was lucky enough to see him live. Unforgettable. The connection between the crowd and Rory was electirc. He was the master. He really was.

[Grumberf]

@tigerarmyrule Philip lynotts Baby Drive Me Crazzy Is Smooth to Thin Lizzy

[hotbuelick]

only one rory. words fail how ntertaining he was,. still the sam after all these years

[tigerarmyrule]

I saw him live. The greatest concert memory I have.

[phil862007]

Its sickening how good he was. . . . .

[GregarasGR]

Seriusly if i was playing that or was there i don't know what....best 10 min of my life!

[AviatorAndyK]

this guys music shits on people like clapton

[mike64477485]

i HAVE SEEN AND HEARD thousands of guitar players; none like Rory, so good so humble, gone too soon. God surely has him playing tonight!!!

[marecki19000]

@mike64477485 is no god rory is

[rockncleve]

One Marshall Amp....One Fender Strat.....Jerry's BASS and a Drummer and He Blew the Doors offf all the Halls he played...Time after Time...Year after Year....no 20 Million dollar Stage Set Up...Make NO doubt of it There is Only ONE RORY

[Monferato]

@rockncleve AMEN to that brother

rory gallagher one of the most underrated guitarists EVER.

[lefteriskrem]

EVERY TIME I LISTEN TO RORY I JUST CRY.DAMN..WHY DID HE HAVE TO GO?I MISS YOU SO MUCH RORY.......YOU WERE A BIG PART OF MY LIFE.

[blackorpheous1234]

Irish blues rock kicks ass !

[4everRory]

what a music. The spirit of the Godfather of guitar will never die. I´ve seen him threetimes, gorgeous, and I like his music more and more. especially when I´ve to hear all the mainstream-shit in the radio. Germany will always love you.

[rgjmce666]

@4everRory wouldn't exactly call him godfather but certainly did a lot for irish music and just a pure blues man, which you just don't get these days

[mynthon11]

This something amazing....love rory

greetings from finland

[90Fom]

briliant rock on rory

[army542]

best live performer of all time.

[jotus1979]

sublime guitarplayer!!! 5*

[sskubisnac]

I was there! front of stage left

[17lio]

You're a lucky guy

But what a mess at the end of the show!!!

I wouldn't have ben in charge of the security: Rory at home, can you dig that?

Shivers at 7:15 when a fan reached Him

Great show

The really best of Rory

[tvrulesnation]

seriously that guy Grga888 is just spamming rorys videos & claiming SRV is better,

Grga888 nobody cares just enjoy the damn music, don't come posting your views if they are negative & can't be backed up. on ''million miles away'' you have gotten into enough debates & been put down.

so stop being such a d*ck, just enjoy the music

[udor1962]

@ShinOuri

Jimi Hendrix - Johnny Winter - Rory Gallagher

the 3 devils on electric-guitar in perfection for me ...

[EdVidz]

Home run buddy!

[grga888]

Take out Johnny and Rory, and add Stevie who along with Jimi presents the ultimate class of greatest blues/rock electric guitar gods that ever lived!

[jotus1979]

@udor1962

accepted...and for me

rory gallagher-joe bonamassa-gary moore

[PurpleAndZeppelin]

@udor1962 @ShinOuri Hendrix, SRV ??, they only are myths.

Reals gods are Rory, Winter, Alvin,Barre or Page.

[kaaremann]

@PurpleAndZeppelin

Rory page & Slash! <3

[PurpleAndZeppelin]

@kaaremann y juanito el del quinto. pero no del quinto de piso, del quinto de beber cerveza, jajaja

[PurpleAndZeppelin]

@ShinOuri Hendrix, SRV, they only are myths.

Reals gods are Rory, Winter, Alvin,Barre or Page.

[vintagezigg]

This Is Rock and Roll Motherfuckers !

[Alkomp75]

He was the Mozart of  electric guitar !!!!

[MrMytilini]

Missing you Major!

[jimmywires500]

I'm not an enormous blues fan but Rory is the best. His playing has such intensity & his feel for the music is easy to hear

[davethebluesdude]

If You like Rory read Gerry 's Riding Shotgun book

[claxby3744]

what a sound! all from a stick and 6 wires,

who have the kids of today got ???

[Razielim423]

no one which, is why young guys like me turn to rory and others not from this point in time

[coder63]

Missing you...

[keefek]

Is there anyone, anytime, anyplace, who played like Rory played?

The answer is: No. He is not a gift from the gods.

He is a god. (And, like most gods created by humans, he was doomed. Oh, hell, I miss him so much.)

[Gallagherfreak100]

You hit it. SRV and Jimi did enter "Rory territory", but, Rory alone stand at the peak. Rory hay have been God, himself.

[bono66ca]

@keefek Well Said!!!!!!

[jmarcosqueiroz]

IS the MAN!! One of GODS of music!!!!!

[DMEB]

the version of this on stagestruck is immense!!... R.I.P RORY YOU LEGEND!!!!

[asperdestria]

Its such ashame all the good music stars are dead great music great voice

[17lio]

RORY IS THE BEST

[PurpleAndZeppelin]

@17lio or clapton or hendricks or shits ...

the fucking master.,

[alankat1690]

my dad was ther

[mannyram]

Really, could you share the history? Must be great!!

[xIMPERIALx]

How i woulda loved to have seen this in person, but im sure my dad musta seen it lol

[Rockafellaton]

hendrix was once asked 'how does it feel to be the greatest guitarist in the world?', he replied 'i dunno u'd have to ask rory gallagher'...

[jimmywires500]

This quote is a legend attributed to many great guitarists

[rintyvinty]

I was at this concert in the Ulster hall, im in the middle in front of the stage. Great Concert.

[steelfire0]

wow ..man ... u are very lucky ..if i had a wish i would wish to hear live Rory Gallagher back in time ...

[theXemoXexterminator]

09

rory is saaaaaaaaaavage

[vavgav]

best ever song!!

awesome solo!!

[neila46]

7:21

[neila46]

Even a fan hanging on him didn't faze him

[zinnuboy]

where in the video?

[leeroy75]

Love the way he does his little speech then quickly blurt's out thank you and goodnight and proceed's to quickly enter a solo and move around to avoid being mobbed.. :D

[EdVidz]

He is there inside the music. Drummer and bassist are a kick. Band resonates. RG at his best.

[bannork]

I loved how Rory used the flanger, enough to add nice textures to the sound but no too much to take anything away from the chords. It's great also how he never played a song the same way twice.

what a rocker!

[Natalie78644]

Rory was more than just the best. He made it look like he enjoyed playing as much or more than his fans enjoyed seeing his show. I think what ever form of art a great artist creates it gives them an even bigger edge over great artist that do it as just a job.

[17lio]

My fav guitar hero.

[mcscoober]

John Bonham - Drums , Phil Lynott- Bass, Rory and Randy Rhoads - Giutars, Bon Scott- Vocals. Ronnie Van Zant, Hendrix , Cobain jammin in the background...... Heaven is Rockin

[FunkyBarSteward]

ZepLizGalOzzAcdSkyJimNir? Nah dude. Doesn't ring out... lol

[scomberscombrus]

check out shadow play the studio version on the photo finish album..my favourite track of all time and i have most of his albums/dvds

[leeroy75]

Can you tell me what DvD's are out there. I have montreux and i also have live in cork and the Irish tour on order they were the only 2 my local music store can get in.

[SlumminAngel]

You're in for a treat with those two. The other must-have is the Rockpalast collection,  released as 'Rory Gallagher - Shadow play' by Eagle Vision a 3 DVD set with shows from 1976, '77, '79, '82, and 1990. Absolutely brilliant!

[leeroy75]

Cheer's mate, the version of philby i have in my fav's is from the rockpalast. Just where is that? France? I may have to seek an oversea's purchase if this other alternative music store i know of can't get their hand's on it. It was eagle vision that done montreux so i dare say it's a must have, montreux is fantastic.

[mcscoober]

thers also a dvd- live in rockpalast from germany in late 70's. 2 discs - acoustic and electric studio and concert footage- well worth purchasing

[leeroy75]

yeah, it's called shadowplay. jb hifi has copies on order. just waitng for them to arrive in the country. Seem's there must be alot of new interest in the G-MAN.

[leeroy75]

they finally got it in, i pick it up tommorow $40 australian dollar's or 39.95 as they like to call it lol.

[SlumminAngel]

Enjoy!

[ElwoodBlackmore]

rory is one of the best!

that man didnt get enough credit for his huge talent.

[PurpleAndZeppelin]

No!

Is the best.

[ElwoodBlackmore]

my mistake ;)

[PurpleAndZeppelin]

Your mistake! He's make all, rockea, sings, play the magic guitar, composed, improvises, encourages, feeling songs, and the best because besides he's plays the festival with the fans.

There isn't another as him.

[ElwoodBlackmore]

couldn't agree more with you!

[PurpleAndZeppelin]

is pure magic, nobody has that magic, neither Jimmy Page.

music isn't alone to sound well, one must have magic.

[leeroy75]

So much energy!! And this is the last song of the gig. It cant help but come through the monitor and cause ya to rock in ya chair and wish you were there. Gerry Mc'envoy fully seems into this song, he cranks it at montreux79 as well.

[propolispills]

All the greatest go before their time, Rory Gallager, Phil Lynnott, John Bonham, The list goes on.

[sodhill]

I was @ this gig

only 15yrs old

still have the ticket stub

remember it was like a sauna

[leeroy75]

cool, or is it hot lol.

[chopindeth]

Great.

God speed Rory.

Pity Rory should die and some posers be still alive.

[nwtrunner]

Wow!!!!!

[loai050]

This is dynamite,the first few notes are heaven!

[cosmic112]

I first saw Rory in New York in 1977, I had been into his guitar playing and the fact that he came from a working class background really made me feel connected to him, he came on before the Jefferson Starship and stole the show and I was a Airplane fan. Rock on Rory.

[ratbatblue555]

this is handmade rock music.

[TheWhiteStrat]

That's fucking rock n' roll!

[jhorsty]

I really miss Rory, watching this clip reminded me of how truly a great inspirational guitarist he was.

[sourskull666]

my favourite guitar player ever and is hugely underated

[lespaulina]

HUGELY!!!!!!!!!

[Rockafellaton]

this was in the kings hall wasnt it?

[shinny106]

ulster hall

[SeChabal]

Puts Hendrix to shame ;)

[poopaloop101]

Here's a good question: Who's a better guitarist? Roy Buchanan or Rory Gallagher?

[skidsos]

It is not a good question.You write about them as if they were both alive.Cherish their music and personalities,they were both awesome and inspirational musicians.

[poopaloop101]

I was just wondering what you guys thought about it. If you didn't want to answer then you could've just left it at that. I know they're both dead.

[pamplinoso]

¿Puedes compararlos?

Adoro a Roy Buchanan, pero si pienso en la todo lo que han hecho, me quedo con Rory Gallagher SIN DUDA

[evercity]

Rory simply the best...

[blacksabfan]

Security did a great job... (7:13 and 7:43). It's a good thing they were just a couple of drunks and not some crazies with knives.

[CatNika]

♥ Rory you found your way right into our hearts! ♥

R.I.P

[ronanccurran]

Simply amazing - a spectacular talent!

[Juguru2]

yes i'm sure this is one of the greatest riffs ever made...

rory, we miss you!

[ElwoodBlackmore]

best riff ever? ;)

[christospetropoulos]

Oh, Rory where are you!!!

[cmcbride]

Does anyone know what venue this was in, out of interest?

[roogah]

it was the ulster hall- amazing gig-
