Rory Gallagher
Who's a fan? One of the greatest rock and blues guitarists of all time, imo, and a more honest and straightforward musician you would be hard pressed to find. Remix what? Featuring who? Dub? Huh? None of that shite with Rory: just honest, basic, down-to-business rock and roll!
They broke the mould, I tells ya! Anyone stand up for the man from Ballyshannon? |

Brother, as it happens. A sad loss to the music world; one of the few who flatly refused to sell out, right to the end. Rory's "reward" for this was near-chart-and-radio-airplay-obscurity, but I still love listening to his music, and those who refused to buy it as it wasn't "hit music", or play it on the radio are the real losers imo.
Always at the top of my guitar hero list. |

Rory was a guitar genius, meant to play from day one, and play he did - like no-one else.
I get upset watching his old videos, knowing that amazing talent is no longer with us. Most definitely in my top ten of guitar gods. |

I never really knew much of Rory until I started listening to Planet Rock.
Wayward Child is a stormer of a track. |
