Rory Gallagher - A Documentary Short (Part 1 of 3)

A short documentary I produced on Blues Rock Musician Rory Gallagher. More info on the production including people interview and why can be found at my blog: http://mattclient.blogspot.com

Taken from Wikipedia: "Rory Gallagher (2 March, 1948 - 14 June, 1995 pronounced /ˈrɔri ˈɡæləhər/) was an Irish blues-rock musician who rose to fame as a talented songwriter, guitarist, and bandleader. Born in Ballyshannon, County Donegal, Ireland, and raised in Cork City, Gallagher is remembered for his solo albums throughout the 1970's and 1980's, and for his tenure in the band Taste during the late 1960s. A multi-instrumentalist who gained a reputation as a gifted and charismatic live performer, Rory Gallagher's albums have sold in excess of 30 million copies worldwide.[1][2] His songwriting, guitar prowess and showmanship on stage arguably brought him his largest audiences, left a strong impact on other musicians, both then and now, and fans who still honour him to date. He died of an infection sustained after a nearly successful organ transplant in London, England at the age of 47."
