I think the best version of Sloe Gin I ever heard him do. For sure, Joe felt that guitar. Wow. Rory was smiling, too.

Hearing Rory’s guitar again. I have tears streaming down my face.

i saw rory for the 3 rd time in montreux in 85, he cames in the pub in front of montreux casino late night to have beers and jam, he was a humble nice man, ready to talk with anyone, to play with anyone and i'm very proud to had a couple of beers with him and some friends .... When i'll die i want his music for my funerals

[TonyThomas]

I played that guitar! Met Rory backstage and asked him if I could play it and he said, "sure"! A very nice man and a great player!

I love Rory G, and am lucky to have seen him play live. It's a nice tribute by Bonamassa. It will promote Rory's music and his legend.

To us younger guys who cant really remember Rory Gallagher, I think its killer that Joe is still keeping his sound and memory alive. This goes out to all those folks who hate on

[johntracy]

Love Joe it's an honour to see him play Rory's guitar I'm sure Rory Gallagher would have been delighted..RIP Rory another great Irish musician

[dadebet]

[MrMem]

Amazing tone, great playing, and great singing as well. Rory is smiling in heaven.

[kpersson]

Either way, Rory was a hero of Joe Bonamassa and he plays tribute to Rory his way. Should be respected for that.

[andrewevangelou]

that legendary guitar
played by a legend, stunning.

[Ronnylama]

Rory's Taste live moments from 1970 to 1972 are AMAZING. That trio was Outstanding. Same guitar as well

[rhendrickson]

Brilliant.  I believe Rory would be proud and happy his treasured guitar once again was able to speak. Joe Bonamassa is a great guitar ambassador and true believer. Loved Rory and loved this tribute.

[LOFIGSD]

Rory will be in Guitar Valhalla with Jimi, Healey, Moore and all they guys, thanks for keeping it real.

[cal_goodi]

Amazing to see Rory’s guitar on stage again carrying his torch on!

[gyrojomo]

That respectful performance only enhances the legacy of Rory. and that Strat. He even dispensed with the keyboards on the intro, and instead let Rory's Strat chime as only She can. Beautiful.

[ceejayify]

Must have been a privilege to play with such an instrument

[levivue]

Great performance! This is what a true artist sounds like. No fake radio auto tune.
