Most incredible live performer I’ve ever seen. In West Germany, 1972, at a small movie theater in Ludwigsburg with a stage. My mates and I went out to hear some music, no idea what we were in for. I was a southern kid, a fan of the Allman Bros, Marshall Tucker, Wet Willie. I’d never heard of RG. Three guys came out, no warm up, and Rory took the roof off the place. That night has remained a vivid memory for more than fifty years. I’m blessed to have seen him. He left us way too early.

Rory, Gary Moore and Phil Lynott. The holy Trinity of Irish musicians. All gone now but their music brought great joy to the world.

Rory is a legend. I saw him several times at the stadium in Dublin back in the seventies. Best concerts I had the privilege to be ever at.

RIP Rory Gallagher (March 2, 1948 - June 14, 1995), aged 47 You will always be remembered as a legend.

Rory played from his heart and soul, no one can compare to him. Love & Miss You Rory ❤

THIS IS WHAT THE BLUES SOUNDS LIKE WHEN IT IS FROM THE SOUL

Watched Roth many times from the age of 14. Changed my life

please dont say hes under rated .hes one of the most lauded and influential guitarists of all time .

One of the greatest guitarists to have ever played the guitar. This is mind-blowing!!

I love this kind of blues.

One of the best blues player ever! died too soon

Best part of our times 😮 such a beautiful soul ❤

Heard him the first time in 1971 with his Number "Laundromat". To me he is the best, the greatest of all times.

I was extremely privileged to interview Rory Gallagher for CBC Radio One back in 1973 here in Calgary. One of the nicest, most soft spoken, and truly humble gentlemen in the business. He was just so easy going, pleasant and down to earth with his trade mark plaid shirts, jeans and all. Refreshingly real. I recall being a bit shocked by how old, weather beaten, rusty, and paint stripped his fender Stratocaster guitar really was. That kind of blew me way. "You're not going on stage with that beat up old thing are you?" Lol. "Yup. Every night. That's my baby...you'll see". You see - for Mr. Gallagher it was just "the" tool to get the job done right with. His chosen tool for the rough trade that he was in. No need for it to be all polished and shiny like. Tone and feel is what mattered. And with Blues being a very emotionally raw, no bullshit, and honest medium, it all fit together perfectly. This working man's music came alive in those hands of his like no one we'd ever heard before. (Or since for that matter.) When he picked that thing up and plugged it in- magic started exploding everywhere. Shivers on top of goose bumps all day long. Lol. Absolutely brilliant. Needless to say, we got along superbly throughout the process. Rory was a natural conversationalist which made my job as a rock journalist so much easier. He was the furthest thing from the typical egotistical prima donna that I was so accustomed to dealing with. Refreshing is the word. Is it any wonder then, that his popularity has enjoyed such remarkable longevity? Still a mighty force to be reckoned with well into the 21st century. This Irish blues legend lives on in our hearts and minds. No doubt about that as evidenced here once again today. All you have to do is read the posts below. That should tell you something. He's still missed by millions of adoring fans worldwide. There once was a Rory Gallagher and there once was a Jimi Hendrix. Two sides of the same coin. Both immutable and immortal. So let's raise a pint shall we? RIP Rory Gallagher!!!. And thanks so very much for the great music, memories, pictures, and especially those old CBC audio tapes that I shall cherish forever. Till death comes to reunite us once again brother!. Cheers and God Bless!

The attention Rory received from his loyal followers, throughout his career, was probably all the recognition he needed. Not a man for stardom or filling arenas where the music doesn't come into its own.

Listed as the 57th greatest guitarist of all time by Rolling Stone magazine. Disagree, My "Top 10".

Salut Rory ,ce putain de son avec cette guitare d'occasion ,c' des tremblements dans tout mon corps , j'aime plus que tout , j'oublierai jamais c dans moi. ,un super passionné du Maître Rory. 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👏

This could go for another 30 minutes and I'd still be into it - fantastic.

Simply no one better

Rory Gallagher and the boys in his band are completely to blame for my six brothers and I have to live with a bad reputation all of those years. We followed Rory and his boys from the very early days from town to town and got to see them play many many times (not enough times) all over the lands. We stayed out late, come home early mornings, went to work and talked about nothing but a rocking gig that we saw the night before. Our dear neighbours were very concerned about the reputation that we were getting, they said we were rockers and blues boys and we were up to no good, we were long hair and that we would all wind up in jail. So far none of us have never been inside of a jail, but we still have all of Rory's albums and we played all of the time.

''Blues is easy to play, but hard to feel.'' _Jimi Hendrix_

The fact Rory & Stevie never played together is a crying shame! My top 2 all day

one of the most gifted people this world has ever seen

The most fluent guitarist and performer ever.

And completely without pedals!

SAW HIM TWICE IN DUBLIN WHEN I WAS VERY YOUNG. A GREAT GUITAR PLAYER, A GREAT SINGER AND A GREAT GUY.

Rory Gallagher was simply amazing.🖤🤘

Rory Gallagher, one of the all time greatest guitarists!

The shortest 9:22 min of my life. Time just flew... This guy was one of a kind

Rory was a wonderful human being. He never failed to come to Belfast during "The Troubles". His playing was always 100% from the heart.

Its so good that I cry

My beautiful Lynn passed last March 23. 2020 .. This calms me as Jesus holds me. Thanks guys

Again. Best blues live record ever....

I learned about RG from my father, when I was 9 years old, in the 70s. Today at 57 years old, my father is no longer here, but the memories remain forever. Listening to RG is to remember again the good music of my father and my childhood.

We love Rory greetings from Greece to all of you!!

Geez, this dude could play guitar. Never got to see him, but if there's a heaven we'll meet one day. RIP Rory

Rory was a humble Irish man he was gifted the traditional Irish music and was well loved for his delicate and intimate knowledge of its intricacy many Irish trad musicians play blues many Seán nós singers sing soul. Music unites ... When someone asked Jimmy Hendricks "what it was like being the best guitarist in the world?" his reply was "why don't you ask Rory Gallagher " judging from that answer they were obviously respected friends and credit to Hendrix it was the best Irish style compliment to say that! Hope the two are jamming on up there

What a talent. 🎸

Moment in music when alone i just be with this song Respect Rory!

You will always be with us..

The most underrated guitarist of all time, period!

When you play from the soul, then it must be divine...🎶🎸🖤

❤my father loved you and now ..me..his daughter. I love too... I discover in your.great singer and a great musician ❤

I dont know why ive just got a tear in my eye

No one does the blues better❤

One of the greatest and most underrated musicians I’ve ever listened to. His music will never fade.

brilliant just gallagher

Thank you Rory! You help me a lot to forget my girl...

I have a complaint. Why RG songs never last enough? I could listen to this for hours...

Hands down probably one of the best blues songs out there

Im from Ireland and Rory doesnt get the recognition he deserves,sad Rory Galllagher RIp a top top guitarist,

I remember driving my 55 - 2 door Chevy Wagon there was nothing louder and sounded so strong than Rory's blues rock back in 1975 now at the age of 63 I've had young men ask who I'm listening to I just tell them Rory Gallagher and the look on their faces how's that.

The Best One!

Απίστευτος.... Αθάνατος Rory Ghallagher! R.I.P.

Bad ass!💜💙🎶💙💜🎶

"Come si fa non amare Rory" "Passione, Talento e Innovazione"

I met and chatted with Rory Gallagher when he was in Cleveland many moons ago (maybe 1975?) He was sitting alone at a table at The Harbor Inn bar in the flats. He must have been in town for a show. Beyond talented guitarist.

I am 59 yrs old now, grew up listening to Rory, Still one of the best ever!!

And now it's time to saw you, my number one favorite guitarist my friend... I'm writing in two teams who love him... The only one Rory Gallagher... Thank you for that wonderful surprise to me my lovely channel ❤❤❤❤

Love the blues

i met rory in manchester with my sons and my nephew he took us backstage to meet the band .we will cherish that memory .god bless you rory.

I'm embarrassed to say this is the first thing I've ever heard by Rory. I'm blown away. I'm definitely a fan for life now.

We miss you so much Rory! You'll live on forever🙏💓

Have a Nice day everyone who backs here . Piano. Is also Great.

Rory is the 13th Olympian God! Warmest greetings from Greece.

Never got to see him, but I had all his albums, incredible musician .

This is on the face of people who do not take pentatonic scale seriously.

Bro.. I just did a line and smoke some bud while sippin some beer.. its a Sunday morning I'm lit and jamming to this... Fqkn Beautiful Mate!!!

Dude you have the best Blues on KZfaq.

I met a kid in the bar a few years ago and when he told me he was from Cork, Ireland, I commented on what a huge Rory Gallagher fan I was. He went absolutely bananas, telling me how Rory is still a national hero in Ireland and Cork in particular. Bought me Irish whiskeys all night too!

Thanks for the nice recording broadcast.The legend is among us thanks to KZfaq music.

If this doesn't touch your soul, nothing can. My God, what a monster player, the best ever!

Thank you Ireland for gave us Rory Gallagher! 🙏🙏🙏

Retour vers ma jeunesse, pas toujours facile alors j'écouter ce monsieur. Merci

Softly spoken and humble off-stage; the most dynamic incendiary performer on stage, bar none in the blues rock universe

I'm blown away, this is just absolutely sublime

I'm in my 60s, never listened much to Rory in those days. Too young to understand the blues. But give it time and you mature, I'm here now. Time to revisit the past, never too old to learn.

That guitar solo... what in the world ?!?!

ITS MYFAVORITE SONG AND THIS CHANNEL IS MASTERPIECE OF BLUES

The Blues just doesn,t get any better than this,,,,,,,That guitar and delivery of lyrics are a world of emotion..

The Irish are well-known for having poetry in their soul, and this fella exemplifies this through his rare gift for blues. Beautiful. Thanks Don

This is why I love blues music; it's so easy to relate to the lyrics and that makes me feel less alone

Been listening to Rory since 1973..I never get tired of that great guitar playing...A true master and a gentleman, that never took the commercial route but stayed true to his art ..respect

I can listen to Rory 24/7 he calms my soul

Rory is jamming with Jimi right now and the album will be released shortly and by God we need it badly. Thank you Rory for all your music and associated good times.

☮️✌️ Rory Gallager was my 1st concert of my life👏 : I was 13teen years old . He came in my city in France... and this will stay one of my best memory... The 2nd were The Who🎶🎶 and i spent all my life in Rock, Blues, Metal, Folk concerts etc...🔊🔊 & all kind of music 🎶🎶💟 i will never stop & i saw lots of groups (Lucky and Happy) 🌹✌️☮️ Greetings from France💥

brilliant blues guitarist

He has never played for the money. He has always played with his heart.

Ох,Шикарен!!! ПУсть не говорят про великих гитаристов ,и которых только и знают: Хендрикс,Блэкмор , что нет никого более!!! Вот он!!! Рорри Галлахер!!!

When we talk about Irish bands, most people mention U2; I just think of Thin Lizzy and Rory. He is still a guitar god, who has influenced many musicians. Rest in Power, Rory!!!

Sweet Jesus! Did I ever need to hear this! Rest in Peace, Rory, you're an Angel now😇💜

One of the few live performances I didn't want to miss was when Rory Gallagher appeared in the Kaiserslautern market hall in 1975. Especially for such appearances I had bought a VW bus to take friends with me. In addition to his appearances with the Taste group, his album "Deuce" had also convinced me. And since then I've become a Rory Gallagher fan and collector of his publications. With his music he will be unforgettable for many.

I am happy to have turned 19 in 1981 - and had a lifetime of the best guitar to experience

First thing in the morning last thing at night that is all I ever want rory on my mind and what a shiver feeling is this truly treasured and missed with all my heart for ever the perfect music of all time

I'm new to Rory G and I am most definitely impressed!
