You little beauty ... Happy Christmas Steevee, and family...have a lovely day ..... thanks for the vid. you know you made my day right? All the very best Steevee⛄❤️✌️👍Xx⛄
This is what you would call an excellent Christmas present, although I've seen it before. Rory Gallagher, impeccable and unmatched even after 27 years of his ausence he's more present than ever. Unforgettable and forever in our hearts and minds. He's still today, just wonderful & eternal! Thanks a lot for the gift...💝🎸🤩🥂🎁🎄
We Germans always loved him and he loved coming here. It was a very special relationship. I saw him live at the Open Air in my hometown of Nuremberg in the summer of 1977 together with Thin Lizzy, Chicago and Santana. Those were the days....
Hi I envy you 😀in summer of 1977 I was 10 and it would take still some years until I found rock music. Thank you for telling that story . I hope you enjoy the memory, by the way in summer of 1983 I saw Thin Lizzy in Nuremberg Monsters of Rock. Best wishes to you Andreas from Nuremberg
He was so dynamic on stage. You need to watch his earlier live jams. Enjoyed what he did. He so related to his fans, included his fans in his songs. Has fans all over the world. Great acoustic guitar, mandolin, electric guitar player. Energetic. A humble man, a kind man. Turned down fame (Rolling Stones) to keep his integrity. Sold 30 million albums by producing them himself. Shall I go on!?
Doctors he was going to overprescribed paracetamol (Tylenol) for some of his issues. Family members didn't realize it until after it had destroyed his liver and the attempted liver transplant failed and resulted in his death. They were very angry. Although doctors treat Tylenol like it's candy ....telling people to take it for any and everything...it is actually potentially quite dangerous and can destroy the liver. A very simple thing to do to avoid this is to take it with a very inexpensive supplement called "NAC" or n-acetylcysteine. But of course no doctor is going to tell you to take a supplement because they don't believe in them. Only very toxic prescription drugs, including psych drugs. Everything else is "nonsense" to them. Doctors and shrinks have killed a number of famous musicians with their toxic "Pig" Pharma wares and in Rory's case, the "harmless" Tylenol. But it's what they're told to do in medical school and medical schools are highly subsidized by the pharmaceutical industry so it's not surprising. You have to be your own doctor sometimes and question a lot of the things they tell you.
@@MrStrat01 Nah, he's definitely underrated, he never made a blip on most "best guitar" lists for some stupid reason and he never was a big selling artist. He was beloved here in Germany, but overall? He didn't sell that well, his anti-commercial stance, against singles, against being marketed limited the exposure. Of course it's easy now to discover him with the internet but back in the day he basically was a "underground musician", undervalued, underappreciated in most countries. It's one of the rare times were the term "underrated" actually is completely correct.
@@ShadowAngel18606. Talvez su imágen de granjero, o su tendencia al sobrepeso no encuadraba con el esquema del Rockstar típico, lo cual no lo hacía el preferido de los promotores artísticos, a pesar de su gran talento. Saludos.
As a NYC kid my first ever concert was Rush, 1982 Signals tour at Madison Square Garden. Rory Gallagher was their opening act for the majority of the tour. I honestly can't remember him too well because I was 17 at the time and hadn't fully developed a fine ear for guitar masters but I remember it being a magical night!!! Glad to have him on my list of guitar giants I've caught Live.
Rory was unique Allright. I've never seen anyone quite like him. To be Irish, Scottish, English & influenced SO profoundly by the blues is a incredible testimony to one's musical passion! He could carry a GREAT rhythm & still find a place for single string. Sing, tour the stage ,clear a runway for his Chuck Berry impersonation! We are GREATLY in your debt Rory!! You left us before the encore'!! .
I would to do justice to the bass player Mr Gerry McAvoy who was underrated by some snob people. THE truth is that he provided together with Brendan O'Neil a killing groove behind Rory and later with Nine Below Zero. This had to be said. ❤Gerard from 🇫🇷
@@GerardFrenchy59 When a band is this good, you always have to give great credit to the bass and drum players for creating a groove. Rory's band is in the same stratosphere as Cream as far as guitar, bass and drums go. Now add a harp player and your really rockin'
Well and old story but when Jimi Hendrix was asked what it felt like to be the greatest guitarist in the world. He said i don't know why don't you go ask Rory Gallagher!!
Thanks for showing this video. I met Rory in Berlin in 1976. Was back stage with him at ROCK CIRCUS. His talent was AMAZING. The recent top Guitar Player listing left him off their top players. What idiot made that list had be a complete idiot . RORY was one of top 5 players in the World.....

The finest Blues Rock Guitarist that ever lived.. Thanks for such a fantastic share 🎶 and a very Happy Christmas to you and yours 🎄 all the very best for the New year too!
Wow. He still gave it his all for his fans. Took a while to warm up, but he got back into "Rory" He still has "it". The happiness in his eyes when the crowd responded to him was so genuine. Loved this video!
This is great and also good to see some footage from Rory’s latter years. The band are on fire. Rory was starting to suffer from health problems, but you wouldn’t know it. My favourite guitar player ever.
Even with his health problems, Rory is able to create an "other worldly, transcendent" experience within himself. Few healthy musicians can put together performances that even approach Rory's magnificence. He takes this primal energy and shares it with his audience. He touches a chord inside a spectator's heart that rises them out of their seats and lifts them to emotional heights that they've never experienced. And when we see this set repeatedly, it always lifts us up. God Bless, Rory, Rock in Peace...
I've always felt Pat Travers owes a debt of gratitude and homage to Rory. Pat took a lot of pages from his book tone, playing and vocals-wise. Of course Pat was the better overall guitarist. But I really understand now why this guy(along with Jim Mccarty, Holdsworth, Peter Green and a few others), were known as the "greatest guitarists you've never heard of". Gone way too young. *RIP*
Großartig! Danke für das Teilen dieses geilen Musikkonzertmitschnitts. Ich habe ihn kurz vor seinem Tod glücklicherweise auch noch live erleben dürfen. RIP Rory G. und RIP auch Gary M. Great musicans and Guitarreros!🎸🎸💎🎇🌅
Vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen und Kommentieren. Ich freue mich, dass Ihnen dieses Video gefallen hat und dass Sie großes Glück hatten, Rory live gesehen zu haben.
os primeiros cartazes(aquele clássico cartaz,com o busto de Rory,com aquelas longas''suíças'',mesmo há ''Seventies''e a guitarra...) que vi a anunciar um concerto dele,na minha cidade,Porto,eu devia ter 15 anos,um puto,portanto... foi em 1978,há 45 anos,quase meio século... é obra!kkkkk.
Can you believe I first started listening to this fabulous musician around 50 years ago. How can that much time possibly have passed I believe my favorite song was Tattooed Lady. And I think that was the name of the album. I know I've got the song right because it's still playing in my head and I picture the album cover as well but I don't remember if that was the title Please correct me if I'm wrong. A teenage girl with a crush that would break your heart listening on my little record player with two tiny matching speakers over and over again with my dad yelling is she ever going to turn that crap off. LOL I think I did but switched it for Black Sabbath Paranoid I think he wished I had stuck with Rory. Have an amazing Christmas what an absolute treat this was. Talk about a bombardment of memories.
@@ScottishTeeVee Fabulous post - great quality. As you say it's scary where the time has gone. I first saw Rory way back in 1968 at the old Marquee Club in Wardour Street with Taste ( I was 15!) 😀 Merry Christmas and keep up with the brilliant uploads ! 👍
@@ScottishTeeVee Yep - just a few ! 😄 I was a member from 1969 until '78 . . . Scots connection - apart from SAHB, I thought Clouds were a great little band live . . . 👍
The 'Defender' album is the first one I got on vinyl, it's definitely not the best of his, but it could easily be considered a lot of other guitarists' best output. Rory Gallagher is pure class.
Brilliant. The versatility Rory had! And Gerry McAvoy was having a good night, too. 😀 That's the fastest an hour has gone by in a long time. Thank you for posting this! 👏👏🙂 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year's to everybody! 🎄🙂
@ScottishTeeVee. Thanx a lot for sharing. I was there with my bandmates, Edgar Winter and Rick Derringer were also on the bill that night. Meeting the G-Man, Donal and the lads after show. Great experience. Rory left us too soon, still miss him so much ...😥
Losing Rory at a young age hurts(a lot), and seeing his degraded health here was more than I expected. I made it to 3:21 in. He sounded great, but I just couldn't do it .
He liver by being bluesman . He was true nit poser You canto sing about romans , drinking ,.motele and life on road only faking It and doing a healthy lifestyle .
