Rory makes the cut with his outstanding live album, &#8220;Irish Tour &#8217;74.&#8221;  &#8220;<i>Where other rockers seize the blues as a chance to show off, Gallagher positively sings on the guitar, to the point where you wonder whether his fingers are even on the strings.&#8221; &#8212; Tom Moon <\/i><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/everybodyishotisdead.blogspot.com\/2009\/03\/rory-gallagher.html\"><strong>Everybody I Shot is Dead<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Canadian Rock &#8216;n Roll photographer and author, Deborah Chesher, has put out a new coffee-table book full of amazing photographs, memories and anecdotes of 48 musicians she &#8220;shot&#8221; in Vancouver and Los Angeles from 1974-1979 who have since died.  Included in this group is Rory Gallagher:  <i>&#8220;If you&#8217;re not a fan of Rory Gallagher, you probably have really crappy taste in music. If you&#8217;ve never heard him play, it&#8217;s not too late to become a fan.  If you play guitar and you&#8217;ve never listened to Rory Gallagher, you don&#8217;t actually play guitar.&#8221; &#8212; Deborah Chesher<\/i><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myreviewer.com\/default.asp?a=114274\"><strong>Sham-Rock Review<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Belfast&#8217;s Ulster Hall is in the middle of a month long celebration of its grand reopening after being closed two years for refurbishment.  On St. Patrick&#8217;s Day Night, the Ulster Hall presented &#8220;Sham-Rock&#8221;, a tribute to the greats of Irish Rock, including &#8220;Belfast&#8217;s adopted son&#8221;, Rory Gallagher.  Performances by Limehouse Lizzy, The Willie Byrne Band, and Sinnerboy paid tribute to their respective idols Thin Lizzy and Rory Gallagher.  <i>&#8220;Overall, it was a quite fantastic night of music in Belfast, with the only criticisms after the show being that the party didn\u2019t go on, all night long.&#8221; &#8212; Brian Elliott<\/i><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TweetHere are a few Rory Gallagher mentions on the world wide web: 1,000 Recordings To Hear Before You Die&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Award winning journalist Tom Moon gives his list of 1,000 must hear albums.
