Rory Gallagher - Brute Force and Ignorance (rehearsal + performance)

This fine song by Rory Gallagher is from the album 'Photo Finish' which was originally released 30 years ago - in 1978. Its CD version was relased 10 years ago - in 1998. Besides, as you all know, this is the year of Rory's 60th anniversary. Bearing in mind this triple anniversary I decided to make this video with my favourite song from the album - 'Brute Force and Ignorance'.

It consists of two pieces: the first one, about 3:30 minutes, shows the rehearsal of the song, it comes from a documentary available on YouTube. The second piece is the performance of the song in 1979 by Rory and his band in Middlesex Polytechnic.

I thnk combining of these two videos was not a bad idea. I hope you will enjoy the result.
