music in the shed

My first real rock concert was here in Rotterdam, Rory Gallagher had just issued his 'Deuce'album. That was in 1971-early 1972. Will never forget as a teenager being impressed by the spotlight beams piercing through the smoke of sigarettes and joints.
I still consider Deuce as one of his best studio albums.

Many more concerts followed over the years and I was never disappointed.

A genuine magnificent no-nonsence guitar hero, was fascinating to see his old Strat deteriorate as the years went by.. Unfortunately Rory didn't look after himself and died way too early..

My older sister was obsessed with Rory Gallagher from the Taste era until the mid '70s, so I got to listen to all his albums from a very early age. Still listen to him today and enjoy "Stage Struck" the most.

But here is one for Marnix ;)

Rory Gallagher - In Your Town
 
Fine example of Rory Gallagher in his heyday Gerald, thanks!

It was the boyfriend of my elder sister who got me digging Rory..

Past week I've been playing the complete ouvre of Steely Dan again, I think one of the most versatile bands of rock n roll history. Always developing and exploring new things, deceivingly simple sounding songs with tunes that never bore and the more you listen to it, the more complex they appear to be. Just listen to Pretzel Logic and you soon want to dig in deeper..

I saw Steely Dan live last year. They had a huge lineup ( maybe 16) with vocalists and a horn section and were fantastic. I was worried before the concert that time may have caught up with them. No worries there though. Steve Winwood was the support act and he was great too.
