Rory Gallagher Guitar Solo Compilation
In honor of Irish guitar hero Rory Gallagher, we thought we'd collect clips of a few of his most creative and energetic guitar solos.
Luckily, it turns out someone on YouTube has already done all the heavy lifting!
Gallagher received a liver transplant in 1995 but died of complications later that year in London at age 47.
Performances:
1. The Watcher (Top Priority Remastered 2000)
2. Overnight Bag (Photo Finish 1978)

He's written liner notes for major-label releases, including Stevie Ray Vaughan's 'The Complete Epic Recordings Collection' (Sony Legacy) and has interviewed everyone from Yngwie Malmsteen to Kevin Bacon (with a few memorable Eric Clapton chats thrown into the mix).
