Even with a career cut short by illness and a premature death, guitarist, singer, and songwriter Rory Gallagher left his mark in the blues and rock worlds. His hard-charging, intensely rhythmic playing style on his 1961 Stratocaster still casts a long shadow over rock & roll. [allmusic.com]
The day Rory Gallagher died was completely different for all of us who loved him. The Irish musician - a phenomenon that is much loved in Greece, "left" on June 14, 1995 at the age of 47. His talent was so great that he became one of the best and most authentic blues-rock musicians. He played with passion and his good character, which was coming out, created a loyal and fanatical audience.
27 years after his death, here is a collection of 27 [+ 4 alternative versions] of the songs he has covered.
