Siddthekid thank u

[@colmwatulikededazio973]

Another reason we love you Dave , is because you still keep alive the memory and musical genius of that living legend that was Rory Gallagher..what a great Rock star to emulate in every way. Great show..thanks brother..

[@willemdefouw3605]

The first time i heard Rory was in 1974. He was the man who startend me playing the guitar. Stil Rory is my nummer one.

[@richardrocks2005]

1m52s of the most soul-hitting guitar playing I’ve ever heard 🤯🙌🙌🙌

[@treborob]

Dave, you're an oasis in the desert! Wonderful stuff. Almost 50 years on from my first contact with Rory.

[@miguelaventure]

Oh man! Thank you so much! Rory is the reason I came back to music and the guitar. I've been waiting for a video like yours for years and years. It's sad thad Rory's musical legacy is so underappreciated today. You're an amazing player and a wonderful teacher! Thanx again!

[@johncollins5552]

Make the pilgrimage to Roryfest bank holiday June in his birthplace Ballyshanmon every year. Its a lovely small town in Donegal , the majority of gigs are free open air Rory tribute acts all day long until near midnight when there are paid gigs in the main Hotel mainly. Dave is right not to be bogged down in note for note, Rory loved to improvise. He said in interview although the Strat was his Desert Island 🎸 he preferred the tele lead sound! Probably tele used a lot in studio more than many realise.

I'VE BEEN WAITING ON THIS SINCE THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF YOU SAYING YOU WERE GONNA MAKE THIS

[@robsummers8344]

I was a million miles away then I saw this 🎸🎶🙏🏻✌🏻🤟🏼😂😂😂

[@maharjanlaxman]

haha nice

[@brandonhupp464]

This is always my favorite 💯 🎉❤

[@johnfarr2780]

I picked up the guitar again 3 years ago at the tender age of 44, this followed a brief flirtation in my early 20s. Since then I have grown a huge love of the blues, And Rory is one of my favourite artists currently. I am self taught and have found your videos so inspiring and informative. This series I’m currently working my way through. Thank you for everything you put out Dave. You are having a massive influence on so many people.

[@robertjones7950]

Great Dave quite magical. Rory's brother Donal would know his instruments and amps used on every track. He knew the serial no's of the amps and guitars, his brothers hidden angel.

[@guitarpley08]

Phuckin GOB SMACKED mate. Bloody well done brother 🤜🏻💥🤛🏻

[@Wiizardii]

Thank you Dave for introducing me to this amazing musician! After listening to this video for 20 seconds I immediately went to spotify to listen to him.. And wow. He is awesome! Definitely listening to his stuff.

[@jon12639]

Thanks to you I discovered Rory Gallagher. He's one of my favourite guitarists now.

[@skydivechris2802]

im a big rory fan since i heard him from my older brother. he made me start playing guitar when in was 14. i saw him live 1982 in Offenburg Germany, it was my first live concert and i was 16. i saw him several times live in germany later on. still love him and play his songs from time to time. great series oh vidoes i watched them all. thanks for it.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you very much. : )

[@blkjckgtr3075]

Dave your awesome thank you so much for this upload love Rory first show in Montreal,shook his hand after the concert,highlight of my life.Cheers have a great weekend m friend!!

[@TheReapersmoke]

This is the song that got me hooked onto Rory. Thanks a lot Dave for this awesome lesson.

[@misterknightowlandco]

Song request: I Fall Apart... love this song... thanks for the great videos again!

[@draizer2]

that song is a beautiful song to learn.

[@petermitchell6348]

From the first album I believe.

[@mrdajve]

I've been trying to play this for years and couldn't work out why it never sounded quite like Rory. NOW I KNOW WHY!! Rory was and is such an underrated musician in my opinion - thanks so much for the upload. I can't wait to try it out!

[@LoneWolff6522]

The first two minutes WOW!!!!!!! Absolutely fantastic lesson, never seen a better one. Dave you’re a genius player.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you very much. : )

[@veljkovukotic3858]

Man, you are a genius, thank you for the selfless sharing of knowledge. Many greetings from Serbia!!!!

[@blkjckgtr3075]

When Jimi said he was the best !He wasn't shitting you!Cheers

[@A14b19]

MAN Dave you're doing a great job. I can tell Rory played studio in a perfect set up but his live playing is ALL ON FEEL as he felt at that moment .He was definitely a feeling player and I loved his sound . Great job and playing THANKS.

[@gaelenmckee6400]

Honestly, thank you, Dave. I've been getting hugely into Rory and specifically this song. He was an amazing guitar player, and he had so many little details in his playing that it is sort of overwhelming trying to figure them out, and this really helps. BTW, I was so excited when you opened the first episode with this and A Million Miles Away, a couple of his best songs!

[@guitarjr]

Amazingly helpful tutorial as always!!! Cheers

[@Nickolllas]

Your enthusiasm is just infectious. Thanks for this

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you very much. : )

[@Wi66pro]

Most guitar lessons on line I get really board, very quickly, this made me feel I was in the room with you playing along and just trying out each bit as we went, very enjoyable and some great little fills which I hadn't realised were in the song, thanks.

[@Slipperygecko390]

Same here, Dave's lessons are not clinical and linear which works very well for my learning style. I not pay attention for 5 minutes with Dave talking in the background and then look back at the video and learn something right away, I don't have to sit through the whole thing to get context, it's great for my ADHD brain.

[@superloekie2985]

Great lesson Dave, thank you.

[@mauricerrr]

you know I sometimes just lookup this video to hear the intro. Your rendition of this solo is just awesome

[@LOFIGSD]

I used to enjoy singing and playing this at Jam Sessions, with a Guitarist, Tim Scopes, doing Lead, a very good Player, he really nailed this, we should have record it, drummer loved doing it.

[@lukadraganic]

Thanks so much. Your teaching style is great. I like the way you combined this lesson with the previous one in terms of putting the scales to practice. Looking forward to more Rory tunes :)

[@firefoxmoz]

It took me a minute to realize what video I recognized you from when I was watching some videos with you on Andertons, and this one was it! Congrats on all your success. I'm so glad to see you going places and getting recognition.

[@Anthony111-y8k]

Hi Dave, loved the lesson, Rory my all time favourite guitarist, saw him 1988 on my bithday at sheffild university. Keep up the good work.:)

[@nerfgamer7000]

Don’t need to write an essay to describe this. One word-Outstanding

[@rannable8]

Absolutely stunning, forget the tutorial I could watch this chap play all day. Well done sir, good job.

[@n97223]

Awesome video...awesome song! Love watching your videos, thanks for posting and sharing your knowledge and talent!

[@killianke]

Excellent video. Your playing and instruction is brilliant but the knowledge you have of how Rory plays the song in both in the studio and live brought it to the next level. Thanks!

[@jimtrussler9232]

Well sone Dave. Love the Rory Gallagher lessons and am already looking forward to the next one. Keep up the great work!

[@GregoryPearsonMusic]

Sounds awesome!

[@simonroberts7659]

Dear Dave these videos are an hour long. Noramlly i get bored after 5 mins but so far i have been glued to them spent a week so far on lesson 2. Has made a big difference already to my playing. Thanks. I hope you are earning money from these.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you very much indeed and so happy you like the vids. :)

[@simonroberts7659]

@@thedavesimpson Ps I've also just bought the Katana Artist on the strength of your review

[@7171jay]

You said you hope it's helpful??? It's fucking amazing!!! Thank you for this. I've caught a couple of references to Rory in some rock history videos I've been watching lately but haven't done the dive on his music yet which means your video here is my introduction to his music and I'm trying to play along with your instruction but haven't even heard the actual song at this point. Hope I end up liking the sound of his vocals because I really love the guitar parts and the song itself, well at least the way you presented it. Saved this video to my library as I will be watching it a bunch more times as well as checking out your other stuff. I really want to try to work on that descending pentatonic across the neck, it's really wonderful!

[@gunnerjenson]

Dave, spent the last few weeks re-buying all Rory on vinyl and playing along. All thanks to you pal! Great videos especially the unlocking the neck video. Well done mate, keep up the hard work!

[@antoinenioi6863]

Super 👍 great sound ! Good cover top

[@olivercanavan8289]

Thank you so much for these! You are such a legend. Selfishly I would love you to do A Million Miles Away, the studio version - that intro is just so killer and no video exists showing it!

[@samkilpatrick3005]

Loved Rory's music since around 1970...played guitar for around 50 years....using a Strat and Marshall Code 50....effects pedals.... you name it I've tried it but cannot get his tone or sound. It drives me crazy...any tips?

[@natalieplumridge6291]

Yes man !! Best cover I've seen of this! Remember hearing about Rory whilst living in Manchester. Had to check him out as soon as I got back to Oz. Great cover and really enjoy your videos!

[@semiautomaticfool]

Most Excellent lesson geezer!

[@richardbloor3048]

Alright Dave, I’m after a few pointers, I’ve played Hendrix and Blues guitar for years and only recently discovered Rory properly. I find he’s a whole style of his own, I play along to his backing tracks but find it has less to hide behind if you get me, find myself getting lost or a bit stuck. Is there anything you can advise other than just keep slugging away? Great videos mate really enjoy your channel nice one for taking the time, the lesson has helped get me to a point but I still feel there’s something missing I’m struggling to fully connect and slot in on improvising as I can on say a blues or Hendrix track?

[@sandysommer1101]

This is just GREAT! Thank you so very much! This is helping me a lot! And thanks to Mr. Gallagher for his fantastic music! RIP.

[@lattelucks4924]

Rory Gallagher was an incredible talent

[@peanisface3950]

Are you familiar with Canned Heat? There are two amazing guitar solos by Henry Vestine in their song "Time Was". Any interest in doing a lesson on this?

[@garyc4019]

so glad i found your channel, ton of time dedicated to this song i fucking love it. great song great video!!!

There is a kickass live version of this song as performed by the Dave Simpson Trio at a 2012 festival show , Dave is in command and his bandmates are in fine form as well ,look for it on youtube, you will not be disappointed

[@ElTone43]

I’ve been trying to learn the rhythm part of this song for a long time and it is driving me nuts. I was trying to learn it out of the “The Essential Rory Gallagher” guitar tab book - I am aware these books aren’t alway accurate. Watching your video and others it seems like there is something missing? How can I email you for clarity? You are a far better player then I am for sure.

[@ramspace]

Great performance.

[@stevefrancis6898]

Thanks Dave you nail it every time and I love your laid back real time teachings. Dose anyone know what works as a treble boost as I have many peddles but no treble booster, badmonkey afulltone,a crazy cacti ect

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you very much indeed. Any overdrive pedal will get you close to that tone. : )

Thanks I will try my boss sd1,did you use the zoom for the drum patch if so what settings

@@thedavesimpson Actually 1st time I hear somebody playing this song properly :) and very cool that you showed the difference between the studio version ("radio friendly ;)) and the live versions, where Rory put more and more creativity and developed the song and his technique. Amazing how simple looking this song for first, but than how much fun it gives! 4 chords, and very deep complexity, but how perfectly balanced. Super good job Dave! :) Keep it up to introduce Rory's genius to music lovers
