Rory Gallagher - Edged In Blue 

Ok fellows I saw Rory once in my life and that was after a Rory critic in a Munich newspaper The "Abendzeitung" wrote about Rory the next day "Wahnsinnsgitarist Rory Gallagher . Which means if you want to translate it in English nothing else but Super super excellent guitarist. To make long story short I bought a ticket th very next day for a concert following about 2 or 3 weeks later. I saw Rory play life and that was with Taste his first band. now I saw a hell lot of great old good bands in my life like Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Canned Heat, Chuck Berry, Santana, and so on... But what I still remember about Rory was that he literally "jumped" on the stage started playing in a way the blew my mind. I moment later i noticed something that drew him apart from everyone else I ever saw. He played a totally "run down a terribly old" and instrument . I was so shocked and as naive as I was at that time I felt sorry for him and I thought to myself " Poor fellow had not got enough money to buy a better guitar !! " . But then I listened and after half an hour it was cristal clear he played litarally everyone that i ever heard against the wall. In german that means he was the best I had ever heard at that time with one notable exception "Jimi Hendrix". But my second thought was he must have prctised a hell lot that is why his guitar was totally battered. Yeah I still remember this one concert and I have heard a hell lot of concerts in my life cause Iam already pretty old. Jörg

So sorry you're gone RG. Miss u madly.

Rory the 7th son of a 7th son, this mans brilliant music has healing powers, if you listen to Rory tunes, he will become your doctor of feeling good, you will gain the greatest understanding of the people of this world.

I'm 58 and can NOT believe I only just discovered Rory's music this year (2021) May his music last another 50 years

This intro is incredible.... Sweet like a dreem.. Pure sound.. Rory forever. Thanks for emotion

I have discovered Rory...my life is complete.

Rory is.by far the best musician I've ever heard and seen

Somehow during many years of listening to Rory's incredible music I had managed to miss this track until a few months ago. I was spellbound hearing it for the first time. He was truly an incomparable artist, one of the all-time greats. Though he never received the recognition he so richly deserved in the US, I hope he knew how much he mattered to those of us who were lucky enough to discover his music. His life was much too short, but his music and its magic will live forever.

A master piece. A unique artist.

Brings back a lot of memories he was so talented

Every note Rory plays touches your soul like nothing else!

To me, this is his best studio song. I just drift away, listening to it. It´s little more than a year now since I visited his grave in Cork. R.I.P. Rory

Hard to believe that Chris Wright (Chrysalis Records) had wanted to chop out this beautiful intro and make the track shorter in order to get a hit single in the US!

Beautiful song I went to see Rory twice in concert and those memories will stay with me all my life Lee Hambleton from Sheffield

The thing with Rory....he was an incredibly passionate performer , amazing guitar player.....but.....his music was so diverse and enjoyable to just listen to......great album songs.....great deep cuts.....the whole deal...

well, sum one help the poor soul who voted thumbs down on this tune, apparently you can come to a music video sight and still not have any taste for great music, poor, poor soul...maybe one day...if your real lucky...you'll come to a crossroads...and learn what great blues music really is...rest in peace Rory, no body makes a strat sing like Rory can!!!

Rory certainly wrote many beautiful ballads, something I feel many folk overlook. Not only was he blessed lyrically and musically, he had the sweetest voice and could go from this tearjerker into Bullfrog Blues (for example). A most versatile musician whom I have enjoyed immensely for decades. RIP Rory.

The Irish hurricane.....rock on Rory

One of the great ballads of Rory!!magnificent!!!!

I am a huge Rory fan but didn’t know this one … until the cook I work with had it on a playlist !

Beautiful song, sadly missed

Awsome ...Rory forever in our hearts....

Rory was the best ever.. he did get good recognition in the U.S. He was a hit on the hippie FM stations, this is not the Partridge Family, or Donny Osmond.. this is album oriented rock..and he got good recognition, from the right type of folks..he did not play pop..he rocked!!

it's great to see the pics of my fav bluesman, the world's greatest blues rock guitarist..at the same time, i feel sad and on the verge of tears cos he is no longer with us...i know where he is, up in heaven in the arms of the angels...miss u, rory, forever will.

I wonder if Rory was in a relationship at this time. He picked the road, but I read a article and Donal said that Rory was sad he never settled down or had children. It brings tears, but what a beautiful song. Rory On Everyone ❤

HANDSOME and Genius!!!!❤❤❤❤❤

rock of the highest quality - authenticity and preservation of the essence of the genre.

This is one of my favorite Rory Gallagher songs, and I pretty much like them all.

The guitarists guitarist, the maestro, genius ☘

Love and miss Rory! I was so lucky to see him in concert and meet him!

Classic rory , .no one better

I love lot's of Rory songs. This one has resonated with me for a long time. I am emotional and with the world's loss it is happy and sad. My girlfriend, Rory. Lot's of stuff. Happy Memorial Day Weekend! So many many people sacrificing everything for us.

I love everything in Rory's catalog, but "Calling Card" might be my favorite.

You can really hear a lot in this song if listen correctly. Can not get any better than Rory.

Love Rory. He was a musical genius.

Miss you Rory forever ❤❤🎶

In this song, I feel the sadness at most.

Only Rory song played in St. Louis, at least he's recognized. The best of the period and style of Blues! Bar none, 2nd to no one, he was an amazing artist who held his soul and art. One day he will get his proper dues!!!!

I miss the day.

She Moved Thro' The Fair-Ann Cran is a beautiful not so well known Rory Gallagher acoustic song hope you like it :) Peace

first class. thank you so very much.

Nils Lofgren, not NILES....I was forcefully told is how the name is pronounced, & Rory were introduced to me in '77 by my employee. I managed a Radio Shack, just as terrible a company then as now, so we could listen to their stuff ad nauseum! 😵😵 That was a nice perk.

Thanks a lot for this great video...!!!

Thanks for this nice video :)

Great video! I liked all the concert footage, it looks great and goes very well with the song. 😁

Fantastic song and video,Con!

edged in blue and what is the best ever In all his sights on this world of human beings in deep desperation and I think that he felt so so much not given that opportunity for his own life and his life and love for us the grateful listener.this world would need to Rory. for the patch of grey clouds coming out there and not just the same day a day where young generation is again in the midst of the same period as to what "god" command "noah" to make that ark that saved a dying world. hope fully understand as we will have been working together for the next times to make sure that we are going to be able to work together!!! KARIN and the rest of the same thinkers cause we are more than a million years miles away to see what happens when your body gets into your ground being burned and we lost more than that 1 Earth. KARIN

This was great stuff Con! I liked it. Nice video my friend. It has a rythem and blues sound to it, just terrific!
