Such a loss at such a young age

[@cherylewilson2032]

Rory - I wish he were still here with us and still playing

[@vojkaklobucar5756]

That second solo, no one comes close to Rory.

[@giovannidironza7929]

"Calling Card" was produced by Roger Glover... I think Rory clearly inspired some Rainbow's songs with this album.

[@flaminiopacheco6303]

Rory was and Will be the Best among the Best. Thank you for your musical heritage. Rest In Peace

[@ThomasRogan-gc5pi]

I need oxygen after that! Fierce exactly what stripped down in your face R&R is all about! Sorry you left us so young Rory

[@Afterworkinhours]

Never appreciated and underrated in the States, shame. Absolute legend in Europe, his appearances on Rockblast and Montraux ( apologies for misspelling) have earned him that status alone. Rest in peace Rory and thank you for your music.

[@unclechubby3499]

Marshall/Strat tone at it's best

[@steveelliott5643]

love that lead riff Mr G! rock it brothers

[@manfredhermann7645]

Rory, love you so much..

[@derrickwillis9892]

I gave 2 guys from Iceland stage struck while on holiday in Italy they played it constantly for 2 weeks

[@ushrit]

After one has heard the second solo, and there's no commitments left in life, one could afford to die.

[@michaelstephen819]

Tasteful (no pun) use of pinch harmonics (Zakk take note) and only tiny nods to EVH - this man had class. So happy to have seen him live in this era. RIP master.

[@beercrazy3272]

He is a beast!! Love this song,

[@robertrohde4579]

I love Zach Wilde and Eddie Van Halen but both are a few notches below Rory!

[@Defundemorats]

Rip master.

We got to see him for the last time in rhyl where he did a one off stop on his way home,i love the guy to bits.

[@claudiamaillier1706]

tremendo

[@neilangus4401]

Those subtle finger networks on the fret board just set this man apart from anyone I know except for Gary Moore You have to love the Irish

[@calvinking8586]

So true! By the way my two favorite guitar player’s, and Clapton is my least favorite!

[@derrickwillis9892]

Born irish

[@derrickwillis9892]

And norn Irish

[@semitalogalliani2048]

Powerful amazing

[@beercrazy3272]

The bass player is all in, bro!!! Lol he's killin it!

[@ReginaMullen]

Gerry and Brendan make this song come alive. The bass is turned up and kicking ass at just the right moments,--Brendan keeps it moving without sinking into metal cliche. Rory just sits on top of it all and makes magic. Love it!

[@marceloromero6992]

Im happy you mentioned that. There is chemistry between these three gentlemen that any musician would envy, and be in outright awe.

[@roblong3684]

Hey Regina nearly a decade later and your words still mean something 😜 so it must be true.

[@ThomasRogan-gc5pi]

What happened to these guys after Rory passed?

[@robertrohde4579]

Beyond great! This is so great that it should have millions of views! I love this performance by Rory!

[@leerocheleau509]

A true power trio through and through

[@stevebell4763]

Awesome version

[@markmiller1212]

Rory gives me goosebumps! Scary talent! R.I.P.

Rory is fabulous as usual and Brendan is a machine on drums.

[@Sil-fo8zs]

Grandioso Rory siempre.

He should have been much bigger apparently his management did a shitty job,his whole band is spot on,RIP

[@Papa-zs6oi]

Saw them in Karlsruhe Germany Sept. 1977. Unbelievable energy from a trio.

[@ianowen9717]

Rory played with a 4 piece band (Gerry Mcavoy, Bass, Lou Martin, Keyboards and Rod De'Ath, Drums) until late 1977. Their last performance together was at The Hammersmith Odeon after which Lou and Rod left the band. Rory then recruited Ted Mckenna on drums and they became a power trio and it was this line up that recorded the re-worked Photo Finish Album in the summer of 1978.

[@rudigergeiler3088]

Ich war auch bei dem Karlsruher Konzert. Fantastisch

[@joyceh2721]

MAGIC ❤️✌️Xx

[@markstoneman1585]

F***ing brilliant ✌

[@judyriggs1139]

Absolutely fantastic version! This man put everything in him into his music and his performances and it certainly shows. No one has ever given more than Rory and I don't think anyone ever will. Angel Rory I will love you for all eternity. Thank you for bringing such Joy to so many. You will never ever be forgotten and I'm so glad you left us your wonderful awesome music 🎶🎸🍀🎼

[@kostasbest1303]

best live version Rory ever !!!!

[@dupazelli1]

The best !

[@johanbergman3166]

Fabulous!

[@ClonusHorror-jj6tk]

Had the great fortune to see Rory in a small club in San Francisco in the 80's with a couple of Air Force buddies... exactly as I had hoped and better !! I have a lot of his music in my collection, and still a regular go to... a top 3 fave guitarist fo me !!!

[@kevinmorse8814]

Great version of Moonchild. All have listen to The Stage Struck Album version 👍

My great regret is never seeing him live

[@pazamor9164]

Now it is too late. The man won't ever wake up again. This is life!

[@michaelellis7787]

He was awesome! Liverpool Stadium in 1970's!

[@sonjadietz5297]

BEST RIP

[@raymondrizzo284]

Wow, that is stunning! I l am an old guy who has listened to rock music for a long time but had never heard of Rory Gallagher until I saw his name mentioned (many times) on other sites where I was watching other guitarists like Stevie Ray Vaughan and Johnny Winter. I figured I should go see what he was about. His playing and feel for the song is just fantastic! The bass player is in such synchrony with him and is terrific in his own rite. That beat up Stratocaster reminds me of Stevie Ray's guitar! I agree with this quote I saw about him...."the best guitarist you never heard of". Glad I finally got to listen.

[@daniel73andersson]

Beyond quality

Even if i mute this vid. Still gives me a goose bump. He can do whatever he want end up it was lit

somewhere on the right of the stage .... there is my head moving ;)

[@nathanritzo2228]

I see a lot of similarities between Rory and Gerry with Pat Travers and Mars Cowling and Frank Marino with Paul Harwood, too. With all three examples, it was as though the guitar and bass were the same instrument, an infrequent occurrence.

[@robertrohde4579]

I agree!

Damn

[@jackdelijser2551]

seems nobody else sees it here but Rory is already on his retour here. you hear it in his voice the real fire and passion has gone . his playing is still great though

[@SenseiMiyagi]

El Hefe! That's all that needs to be said.

I just hope that one of the many international moon missions will find this child! :-D

Cute.🎉

[@TheGreatAlan75]

This riff sounds familiar. I think Bruce Dickinson's solo band ripped it off on the chemical wedding

[@TheGreatAlan75]

"moonchild" and "seventh son of a seventh son" ..... Did Maiden get ideas from Rory
