the most underrated guitarist in history, rory was a genius unfortunately he is not appreciated at least he is not talked about as much as he should be besides being a phenomenal guitarist he had an incredible voice, on stage he was an animal it was on stage that he it was in its natural habitat, he put on the guitar and entered the stage and it was already known that it was going to be a show from another world. I heard Rory for the first time when I was 12 my older brother bought four of his cds TATTOO, CALLING CARD, TOP PRIORITY and IRISH TOUR and my brother put the TOP PRIORITY album first and the first song is FOLLOW ME and when it arrived the second song by PHILBY i was blown away by what i was listening to from then on my brother bought everything from rory and now i have everything from him too

He devised all sorts of tricks just using his hands and the guitar, including pulling on the strings, bending behind the nut, and using the tone pot for effects. Please do check out more of his astounding performances. Any of the Rockpalast videos are amazing, as is anything from the Irish Tour.

You won't see him on lists of the top 20 guitarists of all time but if you ask those top 20 guitarists of all time how good Rory was you will know he was up there with the best of them. Not only an exceptional guitarist but a man who love d to perform. He would regularly do 2-3 hour concerts and you could see he was loving every minute of it.

.....and what´s with Stevie Ray Vaughan?
Rory's guitar is like this with the paint all peeled off because Rory sweats so much during shows
Imagine being there with him !!!!
Bull frog blues live when ya got time.👍🏼👍🏼
Best ever guitarist and really good looking
If you’re playing Rory Gallagher you got me.
Rory..the very best there ever was...
Got to see him and Taste open for Blind Faith in 1969. Jim
I was lucky enough to have seen him in the 80’s when he came to DC….my all time blues rock guitar hero. A few more top notch live performances to check out….Shadow Play, Bullfrog Blues, Tattooed Lady. Love your reviews! Craig in VA
I’m Scottish, I can hear the Celtic riffs too.
Le gars est unique dans sans genre , de la vraie musique....
dam girl every time i check out your reacts i am amazed. rory would be proud of your hair style. love it.
That was really good that!
Rory forever
You need to do the live performance of "Off to Handle".
So jealous you fans saw him live. He was my generation. I’ve been within 100 yards of him! Rory Gallagher was a lone wolf he didn’t bow to the industry. Softly spoken a gent.
He was VERY CUTE TOO as you Americans might say. Hear him play a bit of The Beatles here too.
You must check the song shadow play of this same concert.
you know a guy on guitar is good when you can't even keep up on the air guitar😁👍
Some of the bridges at the end remind me of Hendrix!
Never saw Rory live wish I had, now part of the great gig in the sky ✌️☮️
Saw rory lots late 70s to 90s...just fantastic. Went with a couple of mates to lyceum in London...taste of ireland festival on st patricks say 1980. Promised a long set and was disappointed when he finished after an hour and 40...but hen he came back on and played another hour and 20 encores. At least i hink he did...free Guinness was on tap. Met him too in Leicester after gig at de montford hall, such a nice guy. Just the best.
Another one of our GREATS! 🇮🇪👍☘️ We’re a tiny island but produce some worlds class talent!
You know how you catch a squirrel unique up on them
Purple hair on in my brain yeah thanks for pushing that info
Rory was quite simply a force of nature. Was listening to him and Johnny Winter (American Rory Gallagher) back in 72. Can I point you guys to another guitar hero of mine during this period, namely Bill Nelson of Be Bop Deluxe. Check him/them out.
With some fire poppers
Never thought his vocals was great in fact Hendrix voice was similar but his guitar talent was fantastic , he felt at home on stage , the bass player is also great.
Jimi also said Terry Kath of Chicago was the best guitar player he had heard.
You wanna check out souped up Ford live too
Almost every time they react to one of Rory's videos they use this presentation, which is far from being one of his best. An unbeatable video is the 1977 Hammersmith Odeon concert, among others. Try it.
im not awake yet
The h is silent in his last name In Ireland. If you want some great guitar..Big Guns..
Played this to a few hundred lucky students in a tiny club. Rory did not need to play in stadiums even though he could have. Cream and the Rolling stones wanted him.
Jimi Hendrix actually said that about Terry Kath - Chicago’s original guitar player and founding member.

While I have heard about Terry Kath named I have also heard Gallagher mentioned, most likely because Hendrix apparently mentioned different guitarists at different times when asked that question.
You guys are really great about checking out new artists that you've never heard before. Please check out King's X. Some great songs are over my head, Summerland, it's love, The groove machine
Its the Irish blood , play it brother
Check out Taste it's older his first band.
Hendricks vibe
Listen to Shin-Kicker!
Your hair looks like the 4th of July girl or all the cotton candy at the carnival yeah let's go Carnival
I hear hendrix Trower srv and so much more should have gotten more respect
5:42 beatlish
do philby from montreaux '82 please
Yeah you tell it like it is you were only about a half a year and nowhere when I was tripping on this stuff you might have been like minus 10 years glad you're catching it up like ketchup on your fries maybe not
11:06+
Come on Purple Rain girl
Guitar to amp nothing on the floor nothing up his sleeve not even a whammy all Rory all the time
The Stones seriously wanted him to replace Mick Taylor in the band, that’s how much they loved his playing. But It wouldn’t have worked. Ronnie Wood was a better fit. More Stonesy.
He was as good as the greatest,lol.
Rory forever
