@@-Das.einsame.Elektron- This is about soul, not technical brilliance. 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.

Out of all the recordings of Rory that I have seen on KZbin, this film footage captures what he was like. Not only on stage but off it too. His knockout smile can never be forgotten.

His happiest smile is on Walk on Hot Coals Irish Tour 1974.

@@ramspace Maybe so. but when I met Rory, when I hung out with him and his brother, he beamed. Granted in this film there is just a glimpse of his joy, in real life he was so happy, and he smiled all the time and I was struck by how mischievous and carefree he was. Nowadays, I am so moved by the negativity written by others since, many whom never met him so I am featuring my account of meeting Rory in my book, a concept, shared with his dearest. Still have a long way to go but I hope to finish it soon. So you can , maybe read it one day.

Often when i watch Rory on a KZbin stage, I become philosophical. Get to think how short life is, a stage with a single act. Rory's music, his persona, and what I know of his life, moves me.

Bloody hell, this is blinding! Techniques I've not know him do before - tapping, tapping with the pick, pulling the string behind his fretting hand. All done with musicality, whilst having to re-tune all the while! My wife had the pleasure of seeing him live in the early seventies (she's older than me) - very envious 😁

I too saw Rory in early seventies at a huge outdoor rock festival here in USA. What an experience. My friends & I had heard of him but had no idea what to expect. He left us speechless! He was fantastic. He had an immediate connection with the crowd. What a performer. We loved him! One of the greatest I've ever seen!

This was the first time I have seen/heard Rory Gallagher and I hope I will have the opportunity to see this for the last time before I leave this world. My world was destroyed and reshaped at the same time when I saw this years ago, and it will never leave me. There is no word I know to express my feelings for this man, the band and the music. I've been through a lot in my life and this has saved my soul and changed my life. No matter what I've been through and lost before and no matter what I've been through since, I always just have to remind myself of this man and his music to get right back up and keep trying. I didn't give up because of him. I wish he knew that.

I'm lucky if I remember to breath 3 or 4 times the whole dang video...comes to the end,I'm usually sucking in a lungful as I'm basically passing out. I need help from some seasoned fans...wth,is this normal,something everyone goes through? I don't know where to start with Rory,he's still blowing my mind every new listen. These videos are pure gold,thank you

Amazing! It's always good to see "new" videos coming up. A lot of my Rory videos in my playlist disappeared over the past years sadly. 😞 Rory and Frankie Miller performing live "Walking the Dog" for example. This was such a fun performance and it was deleted from KZbin sadly. I liked to come back to watch it quite often. I think it was at Rockpalast and I hope that the Rockpalast channel will someday upload it (I guess the video I watched was an upload from some private person who had no copyright)

This right here is why Jimi Hendrix, when asked if he was the best guitarist in the world, deferred to Rory Gallagher. You can see that SRV and many others learned from him, and as great as they all are, nobody comes near this humble Irishman, demonstrating total mastery of his instrument. He was, by all accounts, a grand and decent fella, as well.
