[FelixLamla]

@Lecter936337

Hi friend, the cool man in the white t-shirt in the background is Rory´s longtime sound-engineer Tom O´Driscoll. He was one of the pallbearer on Rorys funeral.Rory liked him a lot and he was one of few people who was allowed to visit Rory in his last days in the hospital. Must have been a good man.

[Lecter936337]

@FelixLamla indeed , thanks for the information , is he still alive ?

[Lecter936337]

[JOHNPATRICKFALLON]

great video of Rory,.reminds me of when i was young then,when i took what i wanted :}

[dobesaregreat]

To hear Rory scream "Ow---wuh!" can't even begin to tell you how happy that makes me:)

[DirkjeA]

I am one of the priviledged who have seen Rory perform life in Rotterdam 1974. He played for 3 and a half hour, gave it all he got, an experience of a lifetime I have seen a lot of great musicians performing life, Gary Moore, Yngwie Malmsteen, Mark Knopfler, Eric CLapton, and many more, all great, but no one as heartbreaking good as Rory, he made such an impression.Funny thing, we went back by the first train in the morning, with a lot of others who were there, and all were singing his songs.

[hotbuelick]

that drummer is rod de'ath pronounced daiz he cam a cropper in a car accident for a while i believe

[WishcraftBlues]

If you could see the smile on my face! ; ) WOW...Rory was like no other!

[sonofquan]

Good stuff. I need to invest in him a little bit more,

[ine4rtheD]

[4rainbowed]

I LOVE this period of Rory's best!

[rocknrolla81]

anybody know what this video is from? Is it off one of Rory's dvds? Sure do wish i could have seen Rory play live. He seemed like such a cool dude, always a smile on his face and having a good time. Thats what its all about.

Rory Forever 5/5, never seen this before, thankyou

[ilovechugs]

[MRROCK92]

this was in finland i love Rory gallagher and FInland =) greetings from germany

[je44mami]

I love too=)...Rory&Finland

[MRROCK92]

Do you live in finland?

[je44mami]

Hello! Yes I am finnish=) We have very lot snow, I like that!!! Greetigs from Finland!

[univibe23]

Watching this made me realize what was special about Rory. When the 60's ended and we lost Jimi, Janis, Jim, Brian...Rory was still there. That's what set him apart he was first and foremost a musician (and a yeoman one at that) and not caught up in all the trappings of Stardom. So the spirit -the zeitgeist- lived on with him until his untimely death. RIP Rory!

[stigsdatter]

Fantastic Rory in a fantastic video

[MRROCK92]

minä rakastan se

[aitorteama]

He was simply the BEST

[ZeropointZero70]

Man! Where is all this prime 1975 footage coming from? Wasn't up here a few months ago that i could see. I thought seeing live Taste footage was the eight wonder of the world. And now this!!

[Croqmayel]

Ououou, thanks !!!

[usermac1300]

OMG, thanks!

[6856victoria]

Someone just told me Rory's music was "workmanlike". Workmanlike???

I sent them this video. They can watch and weep. God Bless Rory, he gave so much to so many XX

[bluestblues08]

great! thanks :)) 5*****

[RxJohnTNT]

whats that the announcer is speaking Polish ?

[bluestblues08]

RxJohnTNT, the concert was in Finland so it must be Finnish I guess:))

[GrijzeDraak]

I was there!! And yes it is Finnish for sure. Met my Finnish wife a week before this festival and, maybe thanks to Rory, 30 years married to her now!! Last week-end in Ballyshannon festival. GREAT !!

Rock on Rory, Rock on Suomi, Rock on Hollanti

[rrrasmus]

Yeah, he's speaking Finnish. Translated into English: "In the 70s Yleisradio (the general radio station of Finland) visited summer festivals eagerly. Now we'll see how that legendary Irish guitarist Rory Gallagher rocked at Ruisrock in 1975."

[rrrasmus]

Amazing video! Thanks for sharing this. I was also born too late, never got to see Rory live. Watching these live videos just makes me want to cry! He's the greatest and most soulful guitarist ever in my opinion.

[RoryRocking]

WOW!

[JonasA]

I was there. An amazing show of strenght. Due to powerloss Rory had to cut his set short to just a full hour, but what an hour. One of the best Rory-gigs I ever attended.

[MrKungshagen]

@JonasA i was there too but i remember that he also did an hour aqoustic then the power went back

[Unclemoparman]

And of course there's Tom watching like a hawk!

[SJDKing73]

who is Tom?

[Shadowplay95]

SJDKing73, Tom was a part-time muso from rory's showband days.Tom jumped ship with Rory and became Rory's life long friend/rodie/minder.

[therealmbassy]

damn...too bad i wasn't even born yet :)

[bernard35]

i share your pain

[pindowskivich]

@therealmbassy You have an excuse. I was in my 20''s back then and never saw him play. He came to Cleveland several times, and Mr. stupid was too busy doing other things, and missed out on the greatest guitar man of my time. My pain is self inflicted.

[daviemcf]

@therealmbassy I saw Rory 13 times (6 with Taste) best concerts of my life!! Long live the G man!!

[a8anasios666]

@daviemcf You're a lucky man :)

[monteombraro]

Blessed times...

Wonderful video, thanks finlive!
