      Heading down to Rory's Birthplace of Ballyshannon, County Donegal, for the Festival with my electric guitar. I hope to play and sing this song. One of the years. behind the bassist Gerry McAvoy. my version will not be brilliant but will do.

    Rory Gallagher was just voted the best musician to come from Ireland, beating out Thin Lizzy and U2 by a wide margin. It's a crying shame that more people here in the US don't know about this man and his bass player for 20 years Jerry Macevoy (sp?). His slide playing is sweet and spiritual for my soul. Thanks

      @Tessmage Tessera My apologies, I didn't mean to sound like an ahole knowitall. I found Rory back in 1977, and I've been trying to spread the word about his godlike status ever since. I live in Ohio, and even people who like rock music here aren't familiar with his genius. So every chance I get I try to raise his profile because in my 50 + years of music, he's among the top 5 I've ever heard. Thanks

    Time keeps on ticking... Going through a box of old ticket stubs not long ago. My first rock concert:
    May 19, 1973 East Tennessee State University (lol yeah, I'm old, but still above the dirt...)
    Rory Gallagher - ZZ Top
    4 dollars
    It was about two months before Tres Hombres came out. (Dusty Hill's 24th birthday, I came to find out on his passing) It was Festival Seating and I managed to get about 15 feet from mic center. Rory Gallagher was pure fire right out of the gate, and his band was phenomenal. (particularly Lou Martin on his electric piano) Rory was amazing to see play and I think that he had as much fun as anyone. Then, Billy Gibbons and the boys came out. Back when they were the most badass blues rock band that ever was. Straw hats, jeans, no beards (but Frank. lol), and BG in a white tshirt w/ pack of Marlboros rolled up in the sleeve(lol). Needless to say, Rory and Billy made a big impression on a 16 yr old. Blues rock, slide guitar nut ever since.
    RIP Rory, Rod, Lou, & Dusty. Thank You!
    Keep Rockin' Billy, Frank, & Gerry

    As a french guitarist, i like all genres, because, I love music so much, for me it's just about emotions, not a genre, and i worked as a roadie on monstruous shows in FRANCE, and i got the chance to see real huge bands, except my master HENDRIX, and PAGE with LED ZEP, i was too young, but i saw PINK FLOYD in 1994, Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Deep Purple, SANTANA, CLAPTON, DIRE STRAITS, BEN HARPER, i worked with classic musicians too, jazz, etc.....I'm only 44, but, believe me, i know what i'm talking about when you're a roadie, you make the sound check with those legends, sometimes they let you play with them, you can hear the sound, it's magic....So, listen to me: FOR ALL THE RORY GALLAGHER FANS, WATCH THE CRAZY SHOWS I DID IN FRANCE, A COUNTRY WHICH WELCOMED HIM SINCE THE BEGINNING....THE "LIVE POUR CHORUS", IS MAGIC, ESPECIALLY THE BULLFROG BLUES VERSION AT THE END😂I CRY ALL THE TIME I WATCH IT! THE PEOPLES COME ON STAGE, NO BODYGUARDS, RORY PLAYS AT 10 CENTIMETERS OF THE PEOPLES, YOTALLY CRAZY😂AND RORY FINISH THE CONCERT CLIMBING THE AMPS, IT'S MAGIC😂😢OR THE 1974 CONCERT IN FRANCE, IT'S COMING FROM ANOTHER GALAXY....❤PEACE FROM FRANCE ✌️

    Had the pleasure of seeing Rory at the Reading festival 76 along with Manfred Manns Earth Band and Van Der Graff Generator. He was a star then and still is . Even the rain couldn't spoil the day .

    I saw Rory play in London about 35 years ago. I hadn't heard of him then and he blew my mind. I reckon he must have had about nine encores. Incredible musician!

    Rory has a street name in homage to the musician and singer next to Paris at the "Plan" concert hall in Ris-Orangis southern suburbs of the city. He played there often.

    This was my introduction to Rory Gallagher. After seeing this I went to a record shop and found an album with this track on it. Brilliant. Lost the album years ago, but I recall the cover was a picture of Rory shaded with multi-coloured crayon. In 1999 I was in Los Angeles working with the Inglewood Police Department and the guy that I was working with was Dutch, Dirk Dewachter and he had been a roadie for him in Europe. Small world.

    Incredible guitar man Rory, probably the best of them all world wide & certainly one of my very top faves and a great all round musician songwriter & incredible ‘Live’ performer. The power and energy here is just incredible & the atmosphere has you right there in the venue and I know - as having been there in moments just like this. This number has always been a Rory Showstopper and arguably this is the best version right here played by his strongest line up right the way through:-
    Continue then to rest in peace Rory Gallagher the forever King 👑 🥁of Blues/Rock
