Genius: Rory Gallagher Live

[foster3jd]

Interesting programme on C4 right now, kinda half documentary, half old live gig footage... commemorating 10th anniversary of his death.

The greatest rock/blues guitarist ever to come out of Ireland

new album "Big Guns" came out a couple of weeks back with 24 re-mastered tracks... think I'll be adding that to my collection.

plus, link to a petition for a permanent monument at Rory Gallagher Corner on Temple Bar.

For some strange reason I was inspired to Google 'Pistol Slapper Blues' a few weeks ago after not touching my guitar for years. Picked up my old guitar and learned it surprisingly quickly- so chuffed.

Now all the publicity about 10 years since his death. Spooky - Perhaps Rory's mojo is working for me - it certainly works for my drinking hand.

There is a pretty comprehensive DVD of live performances coming out at the same time as the double CD.
