Ce mec mouillait la chemise Je suis fan depuis 1971 lorsque j'ai découvert son Album éponyme ❤❤❤
I could cry. I have never seen this. Rory, darlin... the absolute best. 🌹Thanks for posting this.
Keep Rory in your ❤️🌹
AMAZING TIMES, THIS GUY COULD BE, IN EUROPE. TRAVEL OVER NIGHT, IN A OLD VAN. AND COME BACK TO ENGLAND, AND STILL PLAY A MAGICAL CONCERT. BEEN THERE BLOODY HELL, TRULY AWESOME 👌
His guitar solo ideas is endless you can tell
his creativity was a way level up than many so called legendary guitarists you can tell when they are beginning to run out ideas on stage with recycled solo but this genius just went on and on and never bored you with the same licks
And what a fuckin amazing musician he was. Always missed and never forgotten. R.I.P Rory Gallagher
bad penny
i stopped listening to Rory for years and years after he passed on, it was just too painful because i felt part of my life had died too when he left us. It is only in the last years of my life and the advent of these marvellous videos, now freely available on TH-cam that i am finally happy to relive my days as a young man by watching him again in his prime just as I witnessed at the many concerts I attended. Thank you to everyone who makes these videos available, we are truly grateful
Calling heaven/ is Rory there?
yeah,. hold on....
Rory/ hello.
hey Rory you checking out how much we love your music many years later?
Rory/ yeah,...just checking out TH-cam myself,... freaky.
WELOVEYOURORY.
A shy soft spoken Irish man a humane hurrecain ON stage miss you Rory SLEEP EASY Rory MARGO 👍❤❤❤💋💞🍀🇨🇮
You got it right. He was kind, shy, giving, never full of himself. A beautiful Son of Ireland. The BEST. 🙏🌹🇮🇪🦅💓🦋🌻
He's known more these days than when he was alive thanks to internet. You can appreciate his work and realize his music is at top of rock blues and a superb guitarrist. His music lives on.
His music sets your soul free !!! Rory is the best medicine to survive in this fucked world !!!
Saw him in Glasgow 1971 I think...literally changed my life!
The great City of Limerick was never the same since Rory played this here, The fisher way
out on the deep blue stop fishing and returned to port, tied up their boats, went home to wash and put on their best jeans and shirts and brought their wifes and girlfriends down to the savoy so they could meet and greet Rory and his boys to their town, Rory rocked this place so much that after the building had to have its foundation underpinned and re-supported. This explains the power Rory Gallagher
Yes!
Hardest working man In rock, legend!
awwwww...sad end. I got to meet this great when they rolled into Boise Id. He was opening for Rush during their "Signals" tour. I had a backstage pass and was there from 2pm until end. Got to greet him and the band like I said, he gave my son a coke! R I P Rory we love U!
Rory probably tops the lists of greatest guitarists that didn’t get the credit he deserved.
What he said
Someone ought to put his best performances on dvd and tour that around the cimemas. Put that bad boy up on the big screen where he belongs. Introduce him to a whole new generation of fans. Turn em all into heads that rock.
I'm afraid most people can not feel how Rory put his soul in his music. And of those who can a lot will not like this kind of music. Nevertheless: great idea to collect his work, at least the best of it.
1974 tour documentary is out there, worth a watch. 👍
Dude was a straight up monster on stage.
Damn!
A force of nature !
Saw him 2 days later in the Regina cinema in Waterford......he changed my life in terms of music....Rory our national treasure 🇮🇪🇮🇪☘️slán go foil a buacháill.
Don't forget the other brilliant Irish guitarist, Gary Moore.

Your right cousin!
the best irish blues man ever the feeling he played with was of the graph ......Rory was yer man
The very best ever. Besides the original bluesmen
..... Rory was a Prince of Ireland. A treasure o the Mother country.
Just Ireland ,? Get a grip gobshite
Amen !❤❤❤😢😢😢
Met ace from kiss one Tuesday night in a bar in Chelsea New York, we spoke of rory , he was blown away by him when he toured America
One legend watching another 👌
Two words............ BLOODY BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!
OMG, he was the best! But the staging in those days. Victorian curtains. Zero lighting. Butts confined to seats. And he still kicks ass. Come back Rory!!!
Ireland was ruled by the Catholic Church more than the politicians until the late eighties pretty much.😂
Rod de'Ath : my favourite Gallagher's era. Fantastic drummer. Awesome drummer.
I had privilege of seeing Taste at their farewell concert in the Ulster Hall, Belfast. Rory always gave 110% in every gig. A true musician
Miss you Rory, and Lou and Rod (Rod I still got one of your sticks) keep on rocking in Heaven !
Oh, Sie Glücklicher ! Können Sie den clonen ??? I will it , too ! Rod - Best here !
Me too (drum stick!) and Rory signed a handmade t-shirt my girlfriend made for me.
I just listened to Freddie King "Tore down" in 1970 at Fillmore west , of course Mr King had better gears but Rory's cover sounds so burning
I used to think he was over rated but I’ve become a real fan. Not sure why I thought that but wow, he’s gotta be in the top four or five blues greats.
This is the best performance I've ever seen. I'm reading McAvoy's book and it turns out this is Rod de'Ath's first gig and first number with Rory, having been flown in at the last minute to fill in for drummer Wilgar Campbell. Rory apparently changed the songlist for more of a blues feel in these first shows and you can see McAvoy trying to figure out where Rory is going next. Simply incredible!
Words are just not good enough to say how GREAT this guy was/is
Native Marylander here. 1600s and all the waves since. Fully recognize Rory as a fellow traveller. Two continents, one cloth ;-)
The world is such a better place with his music. WE MISS YOU MAN!!! R.I.P.
Most rockers say they can play the blues but really they can't, at least for long. Rory knew how. He had a clue.
Jack Empson he was the clue
My favorite version of this song. Rory rocks the hell out this.
We are lucky to have this performance captured on film, Rory at his absolutely breathtaking best!!!
He and his trusty Strat were as one! RIP my friend...thank you for all of the precious memories.
Every time I get drawn to watch yet again another performance I go to more than several more sometimes ending after 3 or 4 hours. Very addicting and just very real...his love for the music. Love him.
I JUST LOVE RORY xxx all said Margot
I agree .. he was a genius .. passion like few others .. many great guitarists who can’t sing and play ✊🏼
Steve Kutz one man show with the back up for help
I'm the same Cynthia, I could listen to Rory all day
Sometimes I just have to listen to "Walk on Hot Coals" from "Irish Tour 74" and again, for the 1000th time, I shake my head in amazement.
OMG. This guy was an absolute beast.
No, Rory was just a shy Paddy that loved music.
Jack Hammer ....well said brother....🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪
He was genius.
Rod De'Ath got called up for a last minute replacement. I think it was his first performance with Rory. Lou Martin was not in the band yet.
What powerful trio !!!
Rory got me into music when I saw him on the Old Grey Whistle Test back in 74. I was just 6. Brilliant. The only guy who is more talented than Jimmy Page in my opinion
Saw him first time 1972 the wiskey a go go sunset strip Hollywood fantastic show greetings from Tijuana Mexico suave
Hello, thats the best thing about being old. We got to see the best bands. I saw Rory 3 times during the 1970s. One of the greats. RIP rory.
I agree 100 %. Saw him 2 x in Germany in the 70....
Love Rory and these 3 guys were the best together!
Decent video quality biblical performance 💚
It'll be 50 years on November 1st that I saw Rory at the Montreal Forum. Rush and Nazareth were the back up bands. We walked in on Rush who had just started their first song. I had been to a lot of concerts, but had never heard anything like Geddy. I compared his screaming to that of Robert Plant and Ian Gillan. What a fantastic night of music.
My top 3 os all time: Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Rory Gallagher.
I call them the holy trinity.
Wonderful performance from all the boys but especially from Rod De'Ath :))) Thank you all ;)
Best Blues&Rock guitarist ！
Thanks to Rory, I can accept getting old. What once was...will never be!❤
I was just over two months old and living nearby when this show was on..... If I'd known it was on, I'd have gone....
Lol!
I know it’s all about Rory, but shout out to Gerry and Rod for being so tight.
ROD WAS ONE HELL OF A DRUMMER MAY HE R I P ☘
As a kid I saw Rory Gallagher on the Whistle test: never stopped my adoration. Even after saw him taken off stage as he was ill in London.
Pretty sure this was the first time live with Rod on the skins. What a start up super group. Good luck finding something else remotely comparable. EVER.
I never seeing him concert in Pittsburgh. He was awesome. It is sad most people never saw him play or know he was a great musician and guitarist.
Rory positively vibrated ... R.I.P. brother ... there's a lot of folks who miss you.
Be still my heart absolutely amazing
I was there
Ich bin so dankbar, dass ich Rory mit seiner Band dreimal live erleben durfte. Zuerst im ROCKPALAST auf der Loreley (live übertragen via TV und wir machten Party im Keller). Das war 1976 und all die Jahre danach.
In Bremen, Germany, habe ich ihn dann mit meinen Freunden dreimal direkt ganz vorne erleben dürfen. Die Halle bebte schon beim ersten song.
Seitdem begleitet er mich bis heute.
Best ever!❤
nice to see Rory's name popping up more and more.....He was the real deal
Great Memories Listening to this GIANT of a guitar player...... Top Shelf performer and Talent. Wish he was still around
Ahhh! Rory you were a gifted gentleman! You don't miss the water till the well runs dry! R.I.p. Man!
wild wild rock and roll. i love it. Thank you Rorry
Ima i na našim prostorima ljudi koji ga slušaju☺! To me baš raduje i veseli...
@@iksipsilon4489 I mene !
Oh man great stuff, saw Rory at the Bottom Line late 70s. Would love to go back in time
. This stuff helps
.
He's always been in my top 10 guitar players. Seeing him play and rarely looks at the guitar neck.
the King in Limerick 1972 ,so so glad i can say i was there.
Fantastic,I was at the gig two nights before in the Regina cinema in Waterford............changed my life. Sla’n go foil Rory a buachaill ta tu un far. Emmet
That's how a strat should sound!! This guy Rules!!!
The Boogie Woogie Man. The man from Company B & R.. A man blessed with immense talent. A man of true grit and great kindness, His like was never seen before and possibly will never will be seen again. The one and only, the master, the very brilliant Rory Gallagher. He had the power to lift the roof of a building during his concerts. He could shadow play the very best players off the stage
One of the greatest,gone way too soon. My favorite song he did was What In The World. I only learned about him in the last 10 years give or take. Wish I discovered him sooner.
The best
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
I had the pleasure of knowing Rod and Gerry way back when they played the Bridge house Canning town London E16 ,lovely guys, and still miss Rory so much RIP Rory !
Saw him a few times, loved every concert, a true trail blazer.
The late great Rod De'ath on drums , Rod if your watching from above , mate you influenced me tons , and i still got one of your sticks from 1978 !
Got one of Rod’s drum sticks from Feb. 1976. Rory played 4 shows over 2 nights at the Bottom Line in NYC. I sat 3 feet from Rory’s mic. At the end of the first night, I stayed behind while the stage hands were cleaning up . I saw the broken drum stick and asked if I could have it. The guy just handed me the 2 pieces.
Thanks to Joe Bonamassa, for bringing a spotlight on this video thru his "monday night blues" link. Rory was awesome, and I know Joe worships him as much as we do !
I love how the audience just politely stays seated
And then goes wild after!
I've followed Rory's sound since his days with Taste. Simply bruisin'! Then as now!
Saw him play a club date. Fantastic.
So raw compared to other artists versions. Love it. Took Freddie King's great song and made it pure Rory.
That strut speaks volumes! Genuine confidence well balanced with humility and a deep appreciation for greatness not just musically but for life as well.
He’s gone, but he will never be forgotten 😎👍
WOW
He was just awesome..I don’t know who turned me onto Rory but I’m sure glad they did 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That pinky stop gets me every time!❤
First time seeing Rory doing Tore Down, Absolutely Rocking the crap out of it👍💯😎
best version ever, love Rory! He is so rocking it out!
Fantastic Rory at it again - Sublime stuff
amazing how Americans never gave him a glance, I didn't even know about Rory until the 90s after his death. he is one of my top 5 blues rock players
He played an awful lot of gigs in the states, but would it be fair to say that it was word of mouth rather than promoting.
He actually did pretty good in the US, but remember the US has always been saturated with great players, including the guitar players that Rory, Clapton, Beck, Page etc all acknowledged they learnt from.
Had the privilege of seeing Rory at the Paradise in Boston, towards the end of his life, and, even though he was struggling with health issues, he burned that stage to the ground.
I wish the radio stations had played him more but hell as far as that goes they could play him on classic rock stations but I blame radio for the reason that a lot of ppl hasn’t heard of him, which is a disgrace in itself. If stations would have just played Rory once every other day (as incredible and so passionate, amazingly talented). There’s something special about the lead singer is also lead killer ass vocalist as well !! I was first introduced in early 80’s. I had to albums of Rory’s and my boyfriend (attn) loaned them out never to be seen by me again. Went thru a bit of very pissed stage. We’re talking 20 , 25 yrs ago. All in the past now. I know this, RORY GALLAGHER FKN KICKS ASS. Passion man with soul bunches of talent. I love 💗him cuz he didn’t give into the commercialization of the entertainment industry. He had steel balls and it was gonna be his (Rory’s)way or the freeway. Smart guy oh and Fantastic, Awesome, terrific, amazing soft spoken, humble, kind carin, common courtesy, a pure gentleman. So patient to( after I saw that one interview) damn. I would’ve give anything to see Rory live. Anybody see him live ? I confess. I have a crush ok . THANKS RORY THE MUSIC !!! Precious gem is what you was is and always will be
🇺🇸🇮🇪☘️🤘🏼💀🤘🏼☘️🇮🇪
I was at this gig all those years ago. Absolute legend, burned into the memory. They "Tore Down" this wonderful hall too in the late eighties.
Just natural GENIUS!
FREDDIE KING IS SMILING AND ROCKING UP IN HEAVEN RIP RORY &FREDDIE !!!YOU BOTH WERE MONSTERS OF THE GUITAR
+Ernest Tuttle You got that right!!!
You've just witnessed the absolute daddy of electric blues. Rory played with passion, intensity, and conviction as a matter of cause. The new pretenders need to study this footage,take heed, and bow before a real artist.
Beautifully said
@@senseblossomxxx5260Even as an RG fan I can't agree with "absolute daddy of electric blues". What about T-bone Walker, BB King, Albert King, Buddy Guy etc?
Or did you mean it in the sense that you personally regard Rory as being the pinnacle of electric blues guitar rather than one of its progenitors?
Listening to this is making my New Year's Eve!
The whole band works so well together!
The is just about the most awesome version I had ever heard - Salute and Respects!
sooooooooooooooooo good....Mr clapton this is how the song is supposed to be played
This changes everything on how I see Eric. This is way more my style.
Brings back memories!! And then suddenly round about 72 we all had to SIT down in concerts.Could never understand that....how could one hang loose with all that rockin going on. Still cant understand it really.
Yeh I think it was all about 'Control'
But I love "I'm tore down"...I TRY and do it justice at my local here in Turkey!
I can't stand that he left us so soon guess i'll just have to wait and see him heaven ❤😊
The Greatest ever
He was the greatest guitarist bar none
If you're into electric blues, you just can't past the fact that Rory was simply the best that ever was. He really makes everyone else look and sound boring. That's just the way I see it.
Absolutely agreed!!!!
Have you ever seen Memphis Lightning play a tennis racket guitar?
❤ guitare Heroes
Rory.... and Stevie... and Clapton in his prime.
@@alejandroangeles8587 the thing Clapton didn't have & SRV, Jimi & Rory all had was a lot of passion , you can really hear it
