Anyway, I would like you all please to give a moment of thought (and if you feel inclined, raise a toast) to this great man, who sadly passed away ten years ago, to the day. Perhpas the greatest way to remember him is by playing his songs. Here's to one of the greats. |

17 Jun 05 - 07:27 AM (#1502885) Subject: RE: Obit: Remember Rory Gallagher From: fat B****rd He played (with Taste) at the South Bank Club in Grimsby a couple of times. I had a couple of requests and he obliged politely and enthusiastically. I was never much on what became a "Eric is God" sort of thing but Rorr G was a great player and as I mentioned above a nice bloke. PS Don't forget he supported Cream at the Albert Hall and by all acounts did just fine. |
