Rory Gallagher - I Could've Had Religion

[wheelsonfire65]

just stunning

[dutchtricks]

to glasstoy 85, I too was fortunate enough to see that one, along with a few others. Rory was already one of my idols by that time. I should mention the other "couple of bands" was just some guy- never amounted to much. I ain't gonna remind about him except that most of us would know him as "a wizard, a true star."

[WishcraftBlues]

This is my religion. A Rory, go raibh mile maith agat a stor; ta athas ormsa.

[ddactyl]

I remember hearing and seeing adverts in the 70's in the NY area for RG shows, but it seems ironic that this y2b posting of a goddawmighty miracle of a performance should be my first exposure (spoken as a budding slide player) to this man's music. Thank you so much, Rory95 for showing this amazing stuff. What a beautiful blond tele, geez... 

[LazyeyeBlues]

I was at this gig. Queued for tickets the day before I think. Took a girl called Hilda!

She was great actually. How you doin' babe!

Anyway Rory was fanbleedintastic and we should all be grateful that he had his own religion because I sure can't play like this!

[Lidian87]

que buenaaaaaaaaaa canciooooon! estoy enamorada de rory gallagher! :3333

[olearybiscuitbarrell]

when they gonna put up a statue for this guy, he loved his work and his fans love him still ,,,,,,,just superb

[stefk123]

@olearybiscuitbarrell There is a statue of him in Ireland. And in Cork they are they are thinking of naming the airport rory gallagher international airport

[Bruscarful]

@stefk123 "...but since I don't have wings..."

;)

[janiakowska]

The fantastic Gallagher...my god !! come back babe !!

[GLASSTOY85]

R,I,P, Rory you are feckin amazing, wish I'd have got the chance to see you play,

[baddad59]

@GLASSTOY85 ..I did in the mid seventys at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City..He was the first band ..Tull and Robin Trower were the headliners along with a couple of other bands.Seventy thousand people and no one knew who he was..I mean..flannel shirt (before it was cool)..three piece band..A guitar that looked like it had been dragged down a gravel road..lol.Forty five minutes later and everyone knew who he was and many like me have never forgot !!

[Lecter936337]

masterpiece. 

[Badpenny13]

"How does it feel to be the greatest guitarist in the world? I don't

know, go ask Rory Gallagher." ---Jimi Hendrix quote from Rolling Stone

magazine interview.

[leventrock63]

Blues, rock, country, folk... whatever you like... here it's a real guitar legend.

[Cohen1966]

Rory, formas parte de mi vida, eres la banda sonora.

[tiponin23]

Wow. Great footage. See the passion , focus, mission in Rory's performance. God Bless.

[lancaster7522]

A really unique recording.....wish i was there

[zimzum5000]

Its just so nice to see someone who gives a fuck about what they're doing!

[COMMUNISTPHILOSOPHY]

saw him live in 1980, Amazing concert.

[CraigsOverijse]

Such a powerfull performance, I feel stripped to the bone after watchig / listening to it - awesome.

I saw Rory several times from '81 onwards, and it was always intense.

Of all the videos people have uploaded, this is is the closest to that.

Thank you so much - and I shall be back everyday for some more religion ;-)

[shirtcreek]

That's not the sound of music.....................it's the sound of His soul

Love this tune, thanks for posting it.

[Syllandry]

[HOLLYWOODHICK]

The master at work---Stevie Ray Who? Rory is THE best!

[hmsmagpie]

Of course the story is that when Jimi Hendrix was asked "What's it like to be a great guitarist?" his reply was "Ask Rory Gallagher"

[corosian]

HOLY HOLY SHIT! This is absolutely fun-fuckin-tastic. Im sorry for the bad words, it only describes how excited i am to hear this. Goosebumps all over me. This is some raw serious blues. The more i get into Rory the more i can trully appreaciate his musical genius.

[missatomickitten]

he could've had religion instead he had whiskey.still god bless one of the greatest talents

[MrTubejockey]

[Syllandry]

Sorry to break it to ya Clapton fans, but this guy knocks Clapton right out of the ball park, this IS the KING of BLUES, very underated and understated !!!!!!

[anonymouslolxD]

@Syllandry Clapton is overrated. Gallagher is miles more entertaining.

[RoryTheLegend]

@Syllandry i totally aggre with you m8.im also a clapton fan ,but rory is the man!!!

[TybeeDolphin]

@Syllandry Thats for sure:)

[mindingosafado]
