Review of Rory Gallagher - Irish Tour ’74 (1974) by Eoin K — 06 Oct 2016

Jaw dropping music, yet also feel he film and tour it documents is culturally significant to Ireland, musically. This was the 1970s during the height of the Troubles in Northern Ireland, and no music act would travel to Belfast, especially after the tragedy of the Miami Showband Massacre.

Rory was different. You can see that when he plays at Belfast City Hall. He brought people, regardless of religion, together during the most darkest days in the countries' history. He was fearless, and lived for the music, and this is shown perfectly in this documentary.
