Rory Gallagher adalah pahlawan gitar Irlandia yang asli, yang senyonya dengan stratocaster '61 yang babak belur menjadi legenda. Bob Dylan dan Muddy Waters mengaguminya, Rolling Stones mencoba mempekerjakannya - dan para penggemarnya menyembahnya. Dibalut denim pudar dan kemeja yang diperiksa, ia menjual 30 juta rekaman dan menjadi ikon musik Irlandia yang karismatik, musisi yang menginspirasi seperti Brian May, The Edge, Slash dan Johnny Marr. Tapi jauh dari panggung, Rory adalah pria yang sangat pribadi. Confidante terdekatnya adalah saudaranya Dónal yang menemani Rory dalam kebangkitannya dari pertunjukan panggung Everly Brothers mereka dan adegan showband di utara dan selatan perbatasan Irlandia hingga jantung memekakkan telinga dari adegan rock tahun 70 -an di London - dan jauh di luar. Sekarang, Dónal, bersama dengan wawasan dari teman -teman dan pengagum Rory, membawa kita dalam perjalanan musik melalui kehidupan dan karier pahlawan gitar yang pemalu ini untuk lebih memahami apa yang membuatnya begitu hebat.
Rory Gallagher was the original Irish guitar hero, whose artistry with a battered ’61 Stratocaster became the stuff of legend. Bob Dylan and Muddy Waters admired him, the Rolling Stones tried to hire him – and his fans worshipped him. Clad in faded denim and a checked shirt, he sold 30 million records and became a charismatic icon of Irish music, inspiring musicians such as Brian May, The Edge, Slash and Johnny Marr. But away from the stage, Rory was an intensely private man. His closest confidante was his brother Dónal who accompanied Rory on his rise from their childhood Everly Brothers stage performances and the Showband scene across the North and South of the Irish border through to the deafening heart of the ‘70s rock scene in London – and far beyond. Now, Dónal, along with insights from Rory’s friends and admirers, takes us on a musical journey through the life and career of this shy guitar hero to better understand what made him so great.
