Rory Gallagher - Too much alcohol

[@BiffyBuster]

My absolute hero, and the reason I began to play the blues .Makes me proud to be Irish , RIP Rory

[@williammendes253]

We loved him in Chicago. I was lucky to see him 3 times. The Aragon Ballroom, the Metro both in Chicago and in a raging blizzard in St. John's (?) Indiana, a hockey rink called the Omni. High energy from start to finish. At the Aragon show, I screamed in between songs for "Souped Up Ford" and sure enough he eventfully played it. I was walking on the clouds. We always went with the same bunch of fellow musicians we had worked with at one time or another , some blues, some rockers, some classically trained and we all loved Rory.

[@jeffclyburn8000]

I was born & raised in ohio...back in the late 1970's people used to tell me I looked like Rory.......I had never heard of him before....finally checked him out...I play guitar ....but nobody ever accused me of playin like him!............

[@NugNux]

heheh...

[@paulgordon6949]

Lol. Yeah, wish I could play half as well as rory could. What a legend!

[@b4d27]

43 and just really learned about him and started listening a year or so ago...I'm glad I did! Rory was the MAN!

[@andrebanville2343]

I found him later in life too, thank you internet. He's a blues master. 🖤🤘🤘

[@elreydeoros87]

RIP Rory..Great musician with tons of soul on his playing

[@siiwy]

a man an a guitar,,, nothing else needed,, this shows what an excellence guitar man and singer rory gallagher was

[@TheGreekster69]

Man I wish I saw Rory. Nobody ever talked about him when I was growin up in the 80's. I didn't discover him until the late 90's. I got to see most of the greats that were alive in my day, but he slipped under the radar. Pisses me off. He is own of my favorites and perhaps the best of all that old 60's lots.. At least I got KZbin..

[@jeffreybiscoe6]

George Kapitanelis I was a teenage kid in the 70s + listening to music . I had all kinds of records 45s - then lps then 8 tracks ,Aerosmith ,Robin Trower,LedZepplin,Stones,Steppenwolf ,Thin Lizzy,The Band + I never even heard of him till I was 50 years old ; I'm 54 now ,same thing here with me no one ever mentioned him.

[@denise-d9v]

Me too. I really regret never seeing him live! Big regret!!! He played in my area come to find out too!

[@leekidman6128]

He was in kerrang a lot

[@jong0000]

Him, Clem Clempson and Gary Moore..

[@sonjadietz5297]

Somebody asked : What is in your brown bag ? I said: THE BEST Musik you have EVER heard.RORY GALLAGHER ! 91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,100 Percent, so that you forget EVERYTHING Pain at all.

[@Brittany40141]

Gallagher is awesome!! He's the best guitarist forever!

[@DirkjeA]

shiver up my spine.. every time I listen to this great version of this song.... Feel privilliged to have seen him perform life back in the late 70tees. This has been a magical experience never to be forgotten...

[@angelusmortis1412]

this man is one of the unrealised legends of rock and blues, if there was any fecking justice he'd be realised for the craftman he was

[@deborah.mckarov4517]

Followed the bloke from concert to concert in my youth best musician I ever saw

[@August22Silk]

I love the faces he pulls when he's playing, that's how you know he can feel the soul in the music. Also, when he shakes his head he looks like a shaggy dog! Pure Irish legend guitarist. Fucking bitching musician! we love you Rory ya mad joke!

[@leekidman6128]

100% talent

[@drummermizike]

i heard the name,but i didn't hear the man until i was older.SOOO much soul and personality.late 60's and 70's brought so many artists that were so good at what they did.the last one we had i think may have been stevie ray vaughan.then i think the lord said ,"i'm having creators block"..

[@3Designlab]

Miss you

[@annadawes1800]

Rory's so cute here!

[@lisa.user-xm7kz2tb6x]

a mesmerizing pro. every moment i stare wide-eyed. my God, So good.

[@mrmarriottsgirl]

I know that Cisco blues fest is nothing about the blues anymore.. ohm,y God I miss Rory Gallagher more every year ..there will never be anyone like this freaking guy again.. what a total package,, uncanny supernatual talent, looks, brains and most of all a sense of values and integrity .. this guy was his own person yet he never had a big head.. Last of then Independents indeed .. sigh

[@waldohreule1529]

blues at its best by the best - 100% - you feel all the pain !

[@jeffreycurneal1024]

Great song .A real classic song by a ICON .Rory Is the man

[@GregDaviesguitarist]

[@jongkind1]

[@davidvelez4184]

Rory gallagher el mejor!!!!!! me dan ganas de tomar una jinebra cuando escucho este tema

[@PascalHallo-s8d]

Incroyable artiste malheureusement trop vite disparu

[@mohanicus]

fuckin legend of blues guitar.

[@MrNovokmet]

rory legend

[@noelsalisbury7448]

In Wikipedia it was wrote that his Liver failure was brought on by excessive, repetitive use of Paracetamol ( I expected the culprit to be booze, and , for all I know, it was the one with the other (?) ) and he actually had a Liver transplant. So very young to die and a tragic waste of Talent and Love. A genuine nice guy by many many accounts.😢

[@DanSVT03]

And as I sit here semi shitfaced/hungover this morning, there is no better song to listen to.

[@h0ts0cks]

Heaven yeah !

[@Fleaman07]

@galsandlagher Yea iv seen them twice... best Rory Tribute act... once with the full band and the second time it was just the singer guitarist (Barry Barnes) playin acoustic... amazin gigs!!! and the same there was very little at the gig which is a shame!!

[@Fleaman07]

[@DipaGod]

I am so tired of seeing this comment on every rory video over and over and over

[@Mlady102]

Trzy osoby nie trafiły w "fajne" chyba były bardzo nawalone BLUES-RORY!!!

[@bobcardenaz9034]

nice J.B. Hutto cover by the very underrated Rory Gallagher RIP

[@johanstaelens5194]

Rory is NOT underrated !

[@patrickgillilan3014]

Irish Tour '74. Not sure a studio version was ever made. But i know its on that live album.

[@michaeljoseph9722]

Better version is on live at Montreux

[@theicedman]

@skypie1128 "when the levee breaks" was recorded in G and then slowed so it sounds like F, or so ive been told... :p

[@aceteryx]

I understand why he loved alcohol

[@budway1942]

This guy would have burned the x factor,,and any other so called reality show..American idol etc.

[@pmcg97]

Poor Rory, Great Talent ! alcohol r.i.p

[@SOCOM018]

its a wierd tuning, i cracked the code a while back but ive forgotten it. if you are still curious you can check out the other Too Much Alcohol vid and some of the comments will have it

[@manskullman6509]

Too much Alcohol with Rory ! Evrrythings alright ! - jon fisher

[@mottledbrain]

In Ottawa they hold an anual festival called "Blues Fest". When you see the list of artists it is hard to see why they don't change the name to "Pop Fest". To bad Rory isn't still around to teach the organizers the blues.

[@captaingrice]

This is my favourite rendition. Does anybody have this on MP3? I'd love this on my iPod :o)

[@makotowatkins1973]

@Gillesderais71 Good call about John Cusack! :) A biopic would be well deserved; RIP Rory

[@Secret_Garden88]

Oh god take Lady Gaga and return Rory Gallagher!!

[@TheGoodSon89]

RORY EISAI XORTO MAGIKO !!

[@RobbieC262]

Living for 30 years without discovering something is worth mentioning. You discovering Rory Gallagher the same day as your first pubic hair is nothing to write home about.

[@neolem92]

i just opend that jonhy walker

[@dublingero]

@Fleaman07 where did u see barry barnes was it in jj smyths? i saw him there a few weeks ago amazin gig and i saw the full band sinnerboy in whelans aswell people dont know what there missin out on do they?

[@LordAzafran]

[@FraJa1980]

Its plain open D, not altered. The chord's he's grabbing are G and A7 Chord 1 (G in open D) x-2-0-1-2-0 Chord 2 (a7th in open D) x-0-2-1-0-2

[@homedog07]

Yeahhh.... Too much alcohol, Yeahhh.... I went down on 31st Street, To pick up a jug of alcohol, Well, I went down on 31st Street, To pick up a jug of alcohol. Ahhh.... Told the man to put in some water, But he wouldn't put in a drop at all. I was drinking my straight alcy, And I went walking on down the street, Well, I was drinking my straight alcy, And I went walking on down the street. Yeahhh.... Well, my eyes got so heavy, I nearly fell half asleep. Well, I like sherry brandy, My baby sure like gin, Well, that little girl I got, Sure put me in the, Spin I'm in. Well, I went down on 31st Street, To pick up a jug of alcohol. Yeahhh.... I told the man to put in some water, But he wouldn't put in a drop at all. Whiskey make me drowsey, And gin can make you think, Well, a common cold can kill ya, But, my baby tell me to drink, I went down on 31st Street, To pick up a jug of alcohol, Yeahhh.... I told the guy to put in some water, But he wouldn't put in a drop at all, One hundred per cent alcohol, Well, let me have some. Well, I like sherry and brandy, My baby sure likes gin, And that little girl I got, Sure put me in, The spin I'm in. I went down on 31st Street, To pick up, pick up a jug of alcohol, Yeahhh.... I told the man to put in some water, But he won't put in a drop at all. Ninety one per cent, Better make it ninety two, Ninety three per cent, Ninety four, that'll do, Ninety five, Ninety six, Ninety seven per cent, Ninety eight, Bartender that's ninety nine, Make it one hundred per cent, One hundred per cent, One hundred per cent, Wanna try some, I wanna try some, One hundred per cent, Then I won't feel a thing at all.

[@Jesusspop]

Incredible performer!! Don't you think John Cusack would be perfect to play him in a biopic?

[@xDimebladex]

@Philby62 who do you mean with JB?

[@DirkjeA]

Yes, I can understand that, but music is universal you know..... In the end, we are all "Out of Africa".....

[@stratphil]
