Rory Gallagher - Want Ad Blues (Wanted Blues)

Rory Gallagher performing Want Ad Blues on the 4th of November 1987 at the Cork Opera House.

Thanks to braintransplantdonor for correcting the song title, there's a misprint on the DVD version calling it "Wanted Blues."

One of my favourite acoustic performances. Though i generally don't upload stuff from any of the official dvds, i am aware that a lot of people can't get them so i'll do it the odd time.

Thanks for posting this Padraig. I know the DVD captions this as 'Wanted Blues' but it's actually 'Want Ad Blues'. Pedantic maybe, but I do imagine Rory would have known is was 'Want Ad' rather than 'Wanted'

Thanks for that, i had seen the name 'Want Ad Blues' before but i didn't think about it, there was another misprint on the original video of this performance too, got the track order wrong, they fixed that much on the DVD re-release though

just fantastic the best all round guitarist/entertainer it is my good fortune to have ever seen. No amount of plaudits. praise. or thanks will ever be enough to express just what an impression this mans singular skills and basic humanity/decency have had on me and I daresay many others.
