I didn't discover this guy until recently. My favorite electric blues albums are Allman Brothers at Fillmore East, Derek and the Dominos at Fillmore East. I like this one just as much.

Sit down, listen to it, this timeless masterpiece will draw a tear for a true artist. Share the thrill...I have purchased I dont know how many copies and continue to do so because I want new people I meet with the love of music to experience this emotional treasure (if they haven't already...)
Enjoy. Peace.

This review is from: Irish Tour (Audio CD)

Previous reviewers have done a very good job with their high praise of this masterpiece, but there are three things i would like to share with anyone who might be tempted but not yet convinced to add this gem to their collection.

First, the blistering, full length Walk On Hot Coals featured on this disc is perhaps Rory and his bandmates at their finest. That cut alone is worth the price of the cd.

Second, this cd is a wonderful complement to, not a substitute for, Rory's Irish Tour 74 dvd. Although there is some overlap in the song titles, there is no overlap in the performances. (I really liked the dvd, and almost didn't buy the cd because I thought it would contain mostly the same perfomances. It would be a shame for anyone to make that mistake.)

Third, a word of advice. If you plan to listen to this cd while driving, engage the cruise control before you slip in the cd. Because driving under the influence of Rory Gallagher can earn you a nasty speeding ticket. And leave you grinning from ear to ear.

Many thanks to Rory and the boys for these superb performances.

5.0 out of 5 stars Always at His Very Best...
Back in the 70's I saw Rory play at the legendary 'My Father's Place' in Roslyn Long Island where he played every song on the CD so it brings back indelible memories. Read more

The first time I saw Rory Gallagher live he was a warmup act, and he stole the show from Deep Purple, no easy thing to do. Read more
