Irish guitarist/singer/songwriter, Rory Gallagher connected across the globe with fans who were irresistibly drawn to his everyman persona and ability to turn a guitar into a lethal weapon. Often clad simply in a flannel shirt and jeans and playing his trademark battered Fender Stratocaster. Off-stage, Gallagher was a soft-spoken, polite individual known for his willingness to talk music and teach a budding guitarist how to play a riff. In an industry fueled almost entirely by self-promotion and decadence, Gallagher’s humility was a proverbial breath of fresh air. This page's prime purpose is to preserve and promote the wonderful musical legacy of Rory Gallagher among present and future web generations.
They don't make them like you anymore, that's for sure. Rory sung it himself and it is so true. What a legend he is. Never get bored to see him performing 50 years after.
Anyone who can do this much violence to a Strat and have it still in tune, is either the greatest guitarist ever, or has the best Strat ever built. Or...maybe both?
