My Thoughts On The Results Of The Rory Gallagher Live Album Poll

Originally voters could only select one album but with the release of more live albums, I increased the selection to two.

At #1 is Irish Tour from 1974.

Rory Gallagher Irish Tour 74

It is an excellent album and the place to start if you like blues rock.

At #2 is Live In Europe.

Rory Gallagher Live In Europe

This is the place to start if you prefer blues to blues rock.

At #3 is the more hard rock album, Stage Struck.

Provided sound quality is good, it’s hard to go wrong with Rory Gallagher live in concert but his style changed over the years which should affect your choice.
