Description
After six years working as a trio (guitar, bass, drums), Rory embellished his sound by adding keyboards into the band. The line-up of Rory Gallagher (vocals, guitars), Gerry McAvoy (bass), Lou Martin (keyboards) and Rod DeAth (drums, percussion), remained together from 1973-78, and would record five albums. Blueprint was the first. This 2012 remaster used the original vinyl artwork and 1/4 tapes so that they look and sound exactly as Rory intended.
Johnny Marr The man who changed my musical life was Rory Gallagher, I picked up a guitar because of him.
Slash Rory didnt sound like anybody elseHe had a very individual, independent kind of tone and approach and everything. Hes always been a big hero to me.
Brian May So these couple of kids come up, whos me and my mate, and say How do you get your sound Mr. Gallagher? and he sits and tells us. So I owe Rory Gallagher my sound.
Ritchie Blackmore Rory was probably the most natural player Ive ever seen. In all the gigs we did together I dont think I ever heard him play the same thing twice He was the ultimate performer.
Ed Sheeran A Million Miles Away was the first song I learned on guitar. The story goes that when Jimi Hendrix was asked how it felt to be the greatest guitarist in the world, he answered, I dont know. Go ask Rory Gallagher.
