The Best Rory Gallagher Guitar Solos

Rory Gallagher's weathered 1961 Stratocaster and flat-out live intensity made him one of the most influential blues-rock guitarists of the 1970s, admired by everyone from Brian May to Joe Bonamassa. Moving from Taste to a hard-touring solo career, he combined fierce slide playing, Celtic-tinged melody and raw Vox-powered tone.
