At least Rory knew how much people all over the world, but especially in Ireland, loved him. Never a single bad story about him. Thank God he disdained the mega star glam world of rock - he was humble and pure to the end.
I've just seen this for the first time. I don't know how I've managed to miss it. I'm 6000 miles away from my home in Ireland sitting in 36C sweltering heat, sweat dripping off me - but when Bullfrog Blues came on I felt a cold shiver through my body and goosebumps all over. Jeezuz H....I started headbanging again lol. WTF? It brought back so many great memories of watching Rory live. I don't know how many times I saw him (lots) but it was never enough!!!! Thanks for making me feel young again.
poor sweet,beautiful Rory......gone too soon,the same age i am now.....one of my all-time favourites,the music touches my heart and soul. R.I.P Rory,i love you.
well said Kate..He had a sould of an angel..and played the guitar like a mad demon....i can barely watch..rather would listen..peace to all Music lovers
Rory was the best I ever heard - lucky me, I heard that soft modest voice in person also . and as for his guitar....how the hell could he be anything but number one, as a player, as a human being. Such a beautiful man in every way...he had such finesse and such grace -musically, socially. I think about him so often. You know I'm still thing of you xxx
I grew up as a kid first withe the Taste and then Rory Gallagher, awesome gitarist. Met him once in Amsterdam and made a beautiful portrait of him after the show. R.I.P. Rory
Amazing as he still shines on through. Not only as a musician/guitarist/singer, but also as a human being. I'm so glad to have seen him live. What an impact. You don't forget.
I went to see Rory on several occasions and it was always a real pleasure, i think he was at his happiest when he was on stage playing guitar and the audience picked up on that, he gave it 100% every time, a true blues legend and greatly missed.
Birmingham Town Hall, early 70's. First time I experienced this wonderful guy. Last concert I was privileged to see, Rory was at Night Town in Rotterdam in 1995, a few months later he passed away. Great musician and down to earth guy. I'll never forget you.
No other blues player has graced a stage with the passion, rage and joy Rory could do. One of a kind. Honest, pure, humble ans talented in spades. Thank you, Ireland!
Nice to see this tribute to Rory he was and always will be one of the best guitar player's had the pleasure of seeing him 36 and every time was different RIP Rory
I remember seeing Rory in Dublin at a free gig at the gates of trinity college. I will never forget it, changed a lot of things for me. RIP Rory. Sorely missed in today's plastic fake bullshit world.
Yeah ! I feel the same. I read all the books about Rory. His brother Donal said, the doctors gave him Paracetamol, not only as a pill but as an injection too. !!!!!!!! Giving that bad stuff to a hard drinking man, was like killing him step by step. No Liver could stand that. Miss him so much ! And you`re right: No doctor can cure misery. Only loving people can do. By chance ! Hopefully !
Miss Rory so much. Such a gentle, sensible and unassuming man. But this world was never meant for one as beautiful as him. If he would only took help in time. But he was his own man. Trusted too much in doctors - who brought him into the grave. So sad.
@ Michael Casey........Tim Buckley may have had Irish ancestry (Grandfather) but HE was American. For that matter, his mother was half Italian. Have always loved Tim's work but my all-time favourite artist across many genres will always be the one and only Rory Gallagher. Now, HE was an artist extraordinaire and a true Irishman.
injektions with paracetamol. that would be an overkill even for a person with a healthy liver. poor rory. i met you once and i never forget, first you were an extraordinary slide player.all good things are said ,about you, so ,i hope to see you in a while.maybe its better this way .the whole world has become mad. you wouldnt like it.
All too common of a story... the guys making the music, the ones with the talent, and put in the work... get screwed by the ones in control of the purse strings..
I wouldn't like to go back to a world without trade unions, but you can only shake your head at the Irish Musicians Federation's idea of looking out for its members interests by calling a meeting to censure Gallagher for staging a 3-piece! 10 out of 10 for visionary thinking there, boys! It was this sort of thing that led to nonsense like the Ramones having enforced orchestral backing on Top of the Pops in '79 ('78?) ...I mean, an orchestra?!! C'mon, the Ramones were a Heroin band, not a Cocaine band, lol! Seriously, this sort of thing was great for hack musicians, and to be fair, I suppose it helped ensure a decent living for session musicians, but the inflexibility of unions in the '70's, much like the insane demarcation, in the long run only played into the hands of insane libertarians like Thatcher.

My beautiful Angel, first and last in my heart and soul ♥
Ήταν τόσο γλυκος συγκλονιστική φωνή ευλογημένα χέρια κιθαρίστα είχε πολλά χαρίσματα από τον Θεό πόσο μας λειπει

I bought my first Rory Gallagher album "Tatoo: in 1971. Greetings from Malaysia. Love & Peace.
You probably mean 1973. 'Tattoo' was released the summer of 73. It's weird how sometimes we think something was earlier or later than it was.

He is my favorite artist by far. Whenever I turn on his music I feel it in my soul.

Rory came to my little "hick town" in 1973. My life was never the same. Thanks, Rory.
RIP
UncleSlayton57 may I ask, how was it like? I know it's difficult to describe.
Amazing as he still shines on through. Not only as a musician/guitarist/singer, but also as a human being. I'm so glad to have seen him live. What an impact. You don't forget.

So many memories. He had a very loyal fan base in southern California no matter what some think.
He did, for sure.
Also in Oz 👌🏻❤️
And in Detroit

Still sorely missed, no pretentious bs with Rory, just honest, heart felt music, never sold out, never compromised. Always amazing live.
Love that hard rock blues hammer on darting on/off riffs ,Taste at isle of Wight
I remember seeing Rory in Dublin at a free gig at the gates of trinity college. I will never forget it, changed a lot of things for me. RIP Rory. Sorely missed in today's plastic fake bullshit world.
"plastic fake bullshit world":,best thing i think ive read in the past 10 years
circle of fat. And it grows worse by the minute. I have scant hope for the future.
I was at that trinity college gig. It was my 3rd and last time seeing him live. His gigs were world class !!!!!!
His music was his life. His live was his blues. Perfect guitar player.
Most talented musician in my book.
Yeah ! I feel the same. I read all the books about Rory. His brother Donal said, the doctors gave him Paracetamol, not only as a pill but as an injection too. !!!!!!!! Giving that bad stuff to a hard drinking man,

There will never be another.
Thank you for uploading this documentary, absolutely awesome just wished i could have seen him live R.I.P Rory
A treasure of humanity
Rest In Peace RORY. You're always remembered...
hard to hold back tears when i'm watching this video
Feel the same
immence artiste très grands guitariste
RIP
Miss Rory so much. Such a gentle, sensible and unassuming man. But this world was never meant for one as beautiful as him. If he would only took help in time. But he was his own man.
Trusted too much in doctors - who brought him into the grave. So sad.
R.I.P. Rory* I missed you, and you make my day ,when i hear your wonderful music !!!
Rory for ever!
Dedication to music is forever connected to this man.
THE BEST of the Gitarre...............RIP RORY
The finest ever , beyond Beck and Slow-hand , yonks ahead of Page, in the realm of Buchanan / Hendrix
Shit i even say over Jimi and Roy
Jimi named Rory as the best ever. Including himself.
Better than Hendrix or Clapton ..from guitar skills to singing .. in everything
I love Rory but Jimmy Page is another legend for me
like jimmy, and stevie ray and robert johnson this is the first I've heard that this man was dead. damn another fine guitarist
Rόry Respect Forever.
great memories of very happy times x still sorely missed x
rory g the best musician of ALL TIME. FACT!!!!
+Kari Da AGREED mate!
100%
No doubt on that!!
anyone who disagrees hasn't truly listened to him
Amen

) Rory.... ci manchi
What a fucking gift he was.
Rory was a player and not a commercial sell out.
Was disscusted with the monetary side of the Biz and ran his own boat.
Inadequate prog. for such a great man. Both Cork and Derry airports should be named after Rory.
Aidan Convery he was born in donegal
@@wfl6887 i KNOW THAT- BALLYSHANNON.
Cork was his home. Rory said that himself. About Cork Airport, Christy Ring Airport.
@@padraigsisk4057 Fair enough. Maybe a future new stadium etc. could commemorate him by name.
Their is only one rory gallagher
Han var en av mina gitarr hjältar/förebilder i slutet av -70talet, såg honom en sen natt på stora scen Roskilde -78
THE BEST
I love you Rory...
Do you have a boyfriend?
rory was the REAL DEAL rip !
Der beste guitarist den es je gab und das hat Hendrix gesagt
Thank you!!
The real deal and then some.
I like him even more now that I know he turned down the stones.
The best🎸 Forever💪✌️❤
Rory our master forever.
El Grande.
i m skipping this one cause the tears started flowing
The good stuff is for the few. Rory I will always remember you
injektions with paracetamol. that would be an overkill even for a person with a healthy liver. poor rory. i met you once and i never forget, first you were an extraordinary slide player.all good things are said ,about you, so ,i hope to see you in a while.maybe its better this way .the whole world has become mad. you wouldnt like it.
Edged in blue
Cork had a ROCK STAR SLEEP EASY RORY XXX ❤🎸🎼🎼🎼🎸💕
The second country after Ireland that he was loved and appreciated the most is Greece
YES, I RECALL SEEING TASTE AT THE JAZZ & BLUES FESTIVAL 1968 --- THEY WERE ON THE SAME BILL AS JERRY LEE LEWIS. -- JOHN UK. ---
Rory always made it OK to be addicted to speed.
Born On The Wrong Side Of Time...from the first TASTE LP Ierke
THE bass player with short hair looks so much like David o'leary leeds utd old manager
NOT LONG ENOUGH!
I'm not into "so-and-so is better than so-and-so." But I do wonder why Clapton achieved infinitely more world-wide fame than Rory.
😢❤⭐😚
All too common of a story... the guys making the music, the ones with the talent, and put in the work... get screwed by the ones in control of the purse strings..
Unfortunately the 60s did that to a good talent of bands canned heat 13 floor elevators, small faces 3x.
wow Van Morrison and him
I will find the seven 👎🏽 and they will regret it ✌️🎸🎶
Is that version of western plain on CZcams? 👌
Hoi... I am not sure...I could extract the version and post it seperately..Nigel
Há esse documentário traduzido p o português?
I saw him at a venue in Kentish Town years ago and was so looking forward to it. What a sad night it was....I left early for a reason...
Why?
reste en paix !!!
Thrillos...θΡΥΛΟΣ...
Why did Gerry leave Rory???
Wait so he would've been Jimmy Page? Or played along side him?😲

Sam Smyth : patronising. And why should Rory's move to Belfast be 'strange'? When did you last change Your shirt Smyth?!
SAM SMYTH: PATRONISING
whats the name of the song at 5:50?
What you don't
@@timkohn7770 thanks!
Hallo
...not the Irish...
i mean who cares it's rory
rubbish blues is know as depressed syndrome in mind
Ummmm, no.🤔🤣
