Product Description
In 1974, award winning film maker Tony Palmer followed Rory Gallagher and his band on their tour of Ireland. The subsequent movie was released in cinemas to great critical acclaim and has gone on to be accepted as one of the great rock films. Now for the first time the film has been lovingly restored and remastered from the original footage and is being reissued on DVD and released for the first time on Blu-ray. There is a massive improvement in both sound and picture quality over the original DVD release and finally Gallagher fans can get to see the film as it was meant to be, capturing Rory, his music, the period and the place to perfection. - TRACK LISTING: 1) Walk On Hot Coals 2) Tattoo'd Lady 3) Who's That Coming 4) A Million Miles Away 5) Going To My Home Town 6) Cradle Rock 7) As The Crow Flies 8) Hands Off 9) Bullfrog Blues - BONUS FEATURES: New RTE Music Maker documentary / Audio commentary / Japanese Tour 1974 Home Movie Footage

I really enjoyed this documentary. It captures Rory in his prime. It features some excellent performances of some Gallagher classics, performed in small venues. It captures the energy of a live Gallagher show. What really comes through is his love of playing. He and the band seem to be having a blast.
What separates this DVD from most Rock documentaries is the how we'll they capture Rory when he is not on stage. There is some great footage of Rory's day to day life while touring his own country. He comes across as a completely genuine guy who has time for his fans, seems to treat everyone as an equal. There is some really good backstage footage, it's interesting to see the band coming down after a show, obviously still energized by the energy of the just finished performance.
