Rory was around well before AC⚡DC... and always gave 110% when playing on stage. Some of rock’s most seminal figures, from Jimi Hendrix to Slash, from Brian May (Queen) to Johnny Marr (The Smiths), have cited him as an influence, as have many many more. Rory remains a touchstone for all would-be guitar heroes in the 21st Century. Truly a musicians musician ✊ Should check out Rory's first band "Taste" -- Taste ~ Sugar Mama (Live at the Isle Of Wight Festival, 1970) .

Rory on stage was not giving a show, he just lived his music on stage, his intensiy was phenomal!

One of the greatest guitar players of all time!

No frills or razzmatazz, just three blokes on a stage playing the hell out of their instruments! Rory was always worth the price of the ticket.

Rory Gallagher, aka The G.Man, aka the Corkonian Cowboy, aka The Irish Wizard...outstanding musician, humble and friendly human beeing. RIP, Mr.Gallagher, you are truly missed by your fans all over the world..Rory and the boys were around way before ACDC, he played in a band called The Taste in the late 60s.

Mommas in the kitchen pikin up a pie , daddy's in the back yard get a job son you know you gotta try it ? So I pack up a bag and headed down the road , got me a job from Henry Ford, but I made a mistake and headed much to far and now I know what the lonesome blues are ! One of his masterpieces !

Rory was doing it before Angus !! Rory' first band was " Taste" !! And I saw him as an opener in 1973 for Fleetwood Mac, and Deep Purple headlining.. Rory stole the night immediately.. I was 16, and still blown away by him, his music, and his performance ! An Irish legend forever !! Thanks for showing Jamel. Cheers !! Jt's Record Room

This Montreux show in 1979 was epic. After giving 1000% with this song, he still came out and played two encores. You might also want to check out how he opened this particular show with Shin Kicker, it'll speak for itself. BTW, Rory started quite a few years before ACDC, but that duck walk is Chuck Berry's classic move. Rory's acoustic stuff is just as amazing as his electric - Out on The Western Plain, Barley and Grape Rag, Too Much Alcohol, but my favorite acoustic performance of his is Just The Smile from the Beat Club Sessions, which sadly has been removed from YT. There's also a version of If The River Was Whiskey, performed on a Dutch show which is beautifully interacted with the audience and definitely worth seeing. Anyway, THANKS Jamel for taking the Rory ride, there's nothing else like it. Please, keep on...

The most underrated 3 man band ever energy through the roof

One of my favorite Rory songs

To understand Rory Gallaher you have to listen to what the people who knew him say/ said. He was known for his musical integrity, down-to-earth approach, it was only ever about the music, on stage an explosive performer,but he had no interest in exploiting his wealth, fame. He refused to release singles, only wore denim, lived modestly. He was famous for his gentle, polite personality, and he made time for his fans- always. He was a purist and wouldn't sell himself out. Those are some of the reasons he is underrated but though he died young he did sell 30million albums, basically himself. You can read about his life in Rory Gallaher-Goodfella by Carol Clark, published 2005, June 1st, Classic Rock.

Rory got his start back in the 60's, with a band called Taste. By the time AC/DC was formed, Rory was on his fourth or fifth solo album. My introduction to him was via the album "Tattoo", which is the fifth solo album, released in 73. There was a small local radio station where I grew up, my friends worked there, then I did 75-76. There was a promo copy of "Tattoo" at the station. I now have about 14 of his albums on CD. One of my great regrets is having never gotten the chance to see him live. FYI, the studio version of this song, "Shadow Play", is on the "Photo-Finish" album from 1978. I originally heard that particular album after finding it, of all places, available for checkout at the public library in Waukegan, IL. That album is also home to one of my favorite songs of his, "Brute Force and Ignorance".

The video is from a documentary film and while it's interesting to watch, there's more footage of Rory walking around Cork than onstage AND they missed out a verse. The album version is better - just close your eyes and let him take you on a journey.

He was absolutely on fire that night. right from the first song - Shinkicker- to this incredible finale. Then he came back for two encores! In between the high energy rockers, he also played some soulful slow blues - Off The Handle is intense, and some acoustic - his brilliant interpretation of Leadbelly's Out On The Western Plain. I love the energy, fun and entertainment of this performance, but my favourite version is the one from the Belfast '84 show - the lyrics are clear, the audience participation is great, and Rory starts strong, slows it down in the middle, then delivers a blistering finale - busted strings, stage invasion and all! Magic! Thanks for another Rory Classic, keep 'em coming 👍

sooo glad that I saw Rory two times in the mid 70s, he gave always 100%, unforgetable, R.I.P.

I'll bet that show would have been fun as hell! I saw this concert on TV when I was a teenager and when he was dragging his guitar by the cord and I was mesmerized.

My name is Rory too and was lucky to see Rory live in Chicagoa at the Amphitheatre on the same bill as Crosby ,Stills, Nash and Young. That was about 1978. Amazing dude and amazing gig. Today I have a white sweat shirt with Rory playing guitar on the back. Peace. R.I.P. Rory Gallagher, The Strat Prince.

Saw Rory multiple times between '76 & '92...every damn show the guy just put everything into it...it was who he was & what he did... Add On - the club gigs were the best. He tore it up at the big gigs - usually opening - but the club headline shows were off the charts. The last time he came to the West Coast I went to three shows in four days - the last on St. Patrick's Day.

He had to be tired as Hell. That was a workout! Love this Irish Rocker, and you can see he loves his fans. Rory would rather play a small intimate venue with a couple hundred fans, than a huge 50 thousand seat stadium any day of the week. He truely loved the people who came out to see him. It wasn't all about the money for Rory. That's another thing he and Jimi Hendrix shared.

Rory was the best, he toured with Rush in the early 80s and he usually stole the show.

Extremely lucky enough to attend 4 Rory concerts from '74 to '91. Including a small bar venue in the Minneapolis area.

I fall apart, Moonchild, Just a Smile, A million miles away. Please!

One of my regrets in life is never getting to see this guy live. Unfortunately I only discovered him in the last few years. Thankfully, there are a lot of videos of live performances. When Brian May was interviewed about Rory, he said he was "elemental", there is just something about the way he performed and interacted with the audience that was captivating. By all accounts he was a very polite and humble guy who transcended to another level when he got on stage.

I saw rory back up the who at Atlanta's omni in 1974 ! Set on a stool with his mandoline and played going to my home town ! Its was one of the best performances I ever saw and in 70s I seen every body you've ever heard and just as many as you havent ! It was a wonderful time in music ! 👍👍👍

Lmao! I love this guy 😂❤ the reviews are on point also

We had our favourites but we loved Rory Gallagher, if you want to see other side of him there is an acoustic video on you tube, his skill with guitar was amazing, Jimi Hendrix was asked what it was like to be the best guitarist and replied go ask Rory Galagher

Pressed up to the front of the stage, close enough to reach out and touch him. A great talent and massively underrated - right up there with the all time guitar greats imo.

Love Rory! Asked all over for 'Bullfrog Blues', so thanks for that, couple weeks back. Last saw him Toronto '76, Exhibition Stadium, followed by Henry Gross, Rick Derringer Band and Aerosmith. Always saw Rory headline before at our beloved Massey Hall.

He was a true Bluesman. Picked cotton, dug coal, sat on the porch. His Delta and slide classics of Blind Bill etc were top top top top.

One of the best ever Rory is. Glad more people are finding him. In my top 5 guitar players ever. Legend. I see people mentioning 'Bad Penny', definitely have to listen to that, Rockpalast version is something else. 'As The Crow Flies' on Irish Tour is another gem.

Love Rory, for a change of pace , Try I fall apart . Or as the Crow flies from Irish tour. Rory was so versatile , and there are so many songs to choose from.

Jamel has the moves of a true hardcore badass rocker. I LOVE it! 💜
