Rory Gallagher - Live At Montreux Details

[Highly rated reviewer]

Bluesy Rock from an excellent guitarist and band.

Really good stuff from an excellent blues rock guitarist. It's great to watch and listen to the music as was - no all singing dancing lights and effects, just solid crunchy guitar, bass, keyboards and drums. Thank goodness this music was filmed and recorded. A lot of this type of concert seems like a direct transfer from the video to the DVD - but whatever... at least we have it on the latest format. Try it, perhaps buy it... but you cannot deny it... it's good rock music and musicians performing.

Another great Gallagher set

Two discs compiled from various appearances at Montreux - not all full gigs as featured in the 3 disc set of Rockpalast gigs released last year, but essential all the same. Rent it by all means - but I've ordered my copy to own already. The 75 era will always be a favourite of mine and I feel privileged to have seen him live a couple of times or so. A rare, honest talent - couldn't be more down to earth and unaffected by fame - and very sadly missed - a true star!
