No other guitarist was ever able to express his feelings as purely and unfiltered with his instrument as Rory Gallagher. His playing was an expression of his soul and his life energy.

[@Joyce71315]

MAGIC.... No matter how many times you see and hear Rory play Tattoo'd Lady, it's different and better each time .. No other live artist captured the imagination, could thrill, excite and electrify an audience like Rory G .. On the way to this gig at Rhein-Main Halle he told a journalist :- "My audiences are into brass knuckle rock and roll. They're the silent majority who just react to the beat. No-one is immune to the prevailing winds of change in music - but all I want to do is get up on that stage and play dirty !".../ This was a great night for rock and roll. It was a wonderful sight to see this soft spoken Irishman turn into a red hot demon on stage .. Mind boggling.... Rory didn't just love music - he lived it..... Thanks a million Rory, for the music and the magical memories...(Watch the whole show - it's brilliant.... Frankie Miller joining our guy for a red hot encore....)...Rory G. An exceptional musician and songwriter. An exceptional human being... MAGIC....❤️✌️🕊️

Thanks Joyce hope you're well I'm going to have to dig this dvd out and watch it again. Rory was red hot on stage Brian ❤xxx

1st seen Rory in 1969 with Taste,absolutely superb. nearly 70 now and still love his music. he sure was one of a kind.

[@franorichardson]

Well said, my first concert was Taste in the National Stadium in Dublin, will never forget it...

[@saqibshabir9755]

Lucky guys! I'm too young to have seen him perform.

[@arlenesheffield1136]

The whole band is what rock n roll is all about..

[@neil1390]

Is this not the greatest 3 man band ever?I would think they are

[@michaelthomas366]

Gosh, I haven't heard this song since high school and I'm 65! Rory Galleger and Alvin Lee were my two favorite guitarists back then in the 70's.

[@andrasczehlarik9180]

i AGREE. CHEERS

[@jackcrane7853]

He was a great SINGER also, something that is always overlooked. In fact, he was ONE OF THE GREATEST.

Man, Rory was an actual god and Gerry McAvoy was a true beast. Just look at that audience being bound by the spells they weaved. Thanks for sharing.

[@carlodave9]

He’s of the late-60’s/early 70’s spirit of Family. The kind of rock built to take off and go places.

[@martinmuller2809]

Gerry still is a "true beast". Wherever he plays go!

[@georgeickhoff3646]

Jimi Hendrix thought Rory was the best and Jimi was right. I will never forget this concert and 3 others I had the pleasure to attend. I still feel really sorry abour Rory's end.

R.I.P to the G-Man ❤ This and Shadow Play especially are incredible from those gig.

[@darrenayres3146]

dont be fooled, gerry mccovoy was an unbelievable bass player.

Players like Rory dig in and go for out with so much energy that transmits to the audience far more than a lot of supersmooth more technical players. You gotta be wild, dangerous and spontaneous and Rory certainty was that. RIP Rory. A great, humble man of great charity. God rest a true son of Ireland.

Anyone who can do this much violence to a Strat and have it still in tune, is either the greatest guitarist ever, or has the best Strat ever built. Or...maybe both?
