Rory Gallagher is regarded as one of the greatest guitarists of all
time. He was a dazzling showman, an accomplished songwriter, and a
champion of blues music. His career began in an Irish showband at
age fifteen, before forming Taste, one of the great Irish bands. He
went on to achieve even greater success as a solo artist in the
1970s. After his success peaked, Gallagher's later life was
troubled, ending in disillusionment and early death. He remains a
legend, with musicians like the Edge, Johnny Marr and Joe Bonamassa
among the legions of fans who still revere him. Drawing on
extensive interviews, Julian Vignoles casts new light on the
familial, musical and other influences that inspired Gallagher, and
on the complex personality that drove his career. Crucially,
Vignoles shows how many of Gallagher's songs speak eloquently - and
poignantly - about the person who penned them. Meticulously
researched, this portrait is the insightful biography that Rory
Gallagher deserves. 'An exemplarily well-researched biography' R n'
R 'A rich, fitting tribute to Gallagher's enormous talent' Beat
