This review is from: Let's Go to Work (Audio CD)

I have been a Rory Gallagher fan since I was 14 and have all of his recordings on both vinyl and cd.This packaged cd Let's Go To Work is exellent value despite the fact that I have 3 of the 4 cds already.The photography alone is stunning on the sleeves of each cd,but for me the most facinating thing and certainly any die hard Rory Gallagher fan will understand me when I say,the cover versions of La Bamba,the inclusion of a little Jailhouse Rock and The Beatles Revolution are amazing as I personally have never known Rory to be so flambouyant live in concert or on studio albums in the past.For these tracks alone it's worth every penny.This cd Meeting With The G-Man was recorded shortly before Rory sadly passed away,and as I say it's worth it's weight in gold.'Nuff Said.Slan Agus Beannacht.

4.0 out of 5 stars OFTEN OVERLOOKED AND TRULY UNDERRATED!, February 14, 2002

This review is from: Let's Go to Work (Audio CD)

Rory Gallagher is an amazingly talented blues rocker who plays both acoustic and electric guitar, harmonica, and mandolin. This set features three of his best high-energy live recordings and one previously unreleased bootleg. Fans of Rory's will not like having to shell out their hard earned cash to purchase three CD's already in their collection just to get ahold of the bootleg, but that's the way Budda records chose to do it. Those not familiar with Rory's work will receive some excellent material. Many great tunes including "I Wonder Who", "Too Much Alcohol" "A Million Miles Away", "Pistol Slapper Blues" and "What In The World". Good stuff!

5.0 out of 5 stars Whets your appetite for the bootlegs, June 22, 2006

This review is from: Let's Go to Work (Audio CD)

Most Rory fans rave about his live performances, but for a long time I preferred his studio LPs. Then I discovered the Rory bootlegs, and my opinion forever changed. Like other reviewers of this product, I already owned 3 of the 4 CDs in this package, but I wanted to get the fantastic fourth CD to complete my collection of "authorized" releases. This package is great; however, if you're even a lukewarm Rory fan (and can there be such a thing?), you will find it worthwhile to search online for bootlegs of Rory's live performances.
