15 years without Rory Gallagher

It is not inconceivable to see the name of William Rory Gallagher the list of 100 greatest guitarists in the world. The Irish, who had his life cut short by a hospital infection in 1995 at age 47 left the world his magnificent musical work in many albums.

Gallagher had a singular talent in which to stage presence and energy of the crowd gave wings to their genius causing it turned out improvised solos that still leaves many famous guitarists impressed.

His fear for aircraft meant that his shows are restricted to only some countries in Europe, thus making unheralded work in the West. Accompanied by his Stratocaster since the age of 15, Rory was an expert, I may say so, in extracting powerful sounds very naturally without the use of pedals, just used the original effects of the cubes of tube time.

There choosing an album that is best for your career, but I can refer to music that are most successful in my player as: Messing With the Kid, Album Live! In Europe ; Calling Card Calling Card Album , and Crest of the Wave album Deuce. *
