Editorial Reviews
Legendary Irish guitarist Rory Gallagher played the renowned Montreux Festival on five occasions, spanning his breakthrough years in the mid-seventies right up to the year before his tragic early death at the age of 47 in 1995. This CD brings together material from the shows in 1975, 1977, 1979 and 1985 to create the definitive Rory Gallagher live collection.

All about the sound,

This review is from: Live in Montreux (Audio CD)
I have the DVD of this and it is one of the greatest DVDs ever. I like the CD but the sound quality on some tracks is not what I expected. Some tracks are better than others, the stuff from '79 sounds great. I suppose Irish Tour, Stagestruck, and Live in Europe have spoiled me. It is a must have though just because its Rory.

Rory Gallagher was relatively unknown outside of the UK & Europe in his life time. That is all changing now that his music is opening up to the world.
Listen to any of his recordings & you will quickly know why Jimi Hendrix referred to Rory Gallagher as the best Rock guitarist in the world. Rory Gallagher was in his natural enviroment playing live, this CD captures the brilliance of the man at a venue he made his own for over 20 years, Montreux Jazz Festival. Vale Rory, you were the best.

Deserves an extra Star,

This review is from: Live in Montreux (Audio CD)
Rory Gallagher at his best live - what could be better. The versions of "Philby" and "Shin Kickin' Morning" are incredible. The only downside to this CD is that it is not nearly long enough. Instead of culling these from the DVD of the same name, they should have put ALL the DVD music onto the CD (or multiple CD's) as a couple of my very favorites from the shows are missing here. I bought the CD mainly to play in car and highly recommend the DVD - it deserves ten stars!
