BRAVO RORY! A friend of mine gave me this in LP format back in 1974. I did not know who he was at all. Totally oblivious to his talent. I played the grooves off of the LP so bad that I had to go out and purchase another copy. I started everyday out by playing this LP. This LP/CD will definitely get your blood pumping. I got to see him in late 1974 at a very high profile bar not only 45 miles from my hometown. I was totally blown away by his performance. He sounded exactly like his record. Just plain straight forward rock and blues. What a performer! After the show he came out in the bar and went around just talking to patrons as if he was just a regular at this bar.(A performer in those days could do that without being paranoid)This bar by the way was called "The Thunder Chicken" out on Alpine Avenue in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Got to talk to him briefly and shook his hand to congratulate him on his fine talent/performance. A night I will never forget. I was able later as the years went on to get this title on CD but had to buy it as an import. Mine is not remastered unfortunately, but sound quality is not half bad. I see here it is remastered with bonus tracks. If you buy only one Rory Gallagher CD, this is the one to have. A blood pumper CD to own. Get it you won't regret it. I rest my case.
