FINALLY! Someone who gives Rory the appreciation he deserves! He was a guitar superstar in the 70‘s and is so overlooked today.

Listen to Rory and his Great Band in the 70s. Very underrated band a Great Irish ROCKER. RIP Rory your great music loves on.

[ScottishTeeVee]

Rory and his band were stunning. For years, if I encounter any guitarists, I always ask "Do you like Rory Gallagher?"  
If they say "Who". I know instantly, that they know nothing.

[turflodge]

What a man. Played Belfast during the darkest times when nobody else would come. Was lucky to see him a good few times. RIP Rory.

[TheGrimmCommoner]

Brian May said that Rory gave him his sound, Hendrix said that Rory was the best in the world, and he also inspired guys like Slash.
He was the legend who inspired icons.

Michael I hope you read this. The quintessential Rory story is that he'd play a show like this, maybe 3 hours, then show up at the pub around the corner from the venue with an acoustic, and play songs for 5 more hours. He was a beautiful soul who loved music maybe more than anyone ever has.

Gerry McAvoy on the bass is KILLING it!

[murilocarvalho]

Rory Gallagher was a genius of guitar. Amazing!

[danr]

"That bass player" that is crushing it is named Gerry McAvoy, also from Ireland. Gerry has written at least 2 books about his time with Rory.

most underated Artist - Rory is a Legend

[jtbkilmartin]

Saw him six times in the seventies. A gentle man damaged by drink but arguably one of the greatest players ever.

[AOTSismyhero]

Rory Gallagher! The best blues guitarist nobody in America knows hahaha

[bassmandave]

Rory was an absolute force of nature. He and his band deserve SO MUCH more respect and recognition than they get. True blues rock n roll feel and mastery! Spectacular!

[catherinetiernan]

One of the Top 5 guitar players in the WORLD EVER. Can't be defined or put in a box he JUST WAS.

[tommccafferty]

Rory's strat is arguably one of the most famous guitars ever. A replica is mounted on Rory Gallagher Corner in Dublin.

[michaelehrhart]

Rory Gallagher was not only a guitar genius...he was one of the nicest artists I have ever met...saw him in 1978 in Atlanta...and he invited my entire little group into his dressing room for a beer...and to chat...unbelievable...loved to see him...he was sooo good!

[martynspooner]

Rory Gallagher concerts were always high energy and the man could really play.

[johnnyjohnsonmusic]

The bassist is Gerry McAvoy and he is a bass playing monster and still playing live with “band of friends”. Playing Rory’s music.

[RussInCanada]

Gerry McAvoy is a criminally underrated bassist.
