Amazing guitar based blues-simple and memorable,Personally this is my favourite RoryGallagher album/era and a great introduction to Rory's playing.As far as i know this is his first solo album.
The track listing is
One. Laundromat
Two. Just The Smile
Three. Hands Up
Four. For The Last Time
Five. It's You
Six. I'm Not Surprised
Seven. Can't Believe It's True
Eight. Gypsy Woman
Nine. It Takes Time
The recording quality is amazing,For then or now.It was released in 1971.
Every song has a unique feel to it and he gets an amazing array of tones and textures out of his strat.If you play the guitar and like the bleus im sure you'll like this album
The album makes Rory come across as a very traditional traveling bluesman ...
Advantages: Wasn't expensive Disadvantages: Hour tour wasn't long enough
SYDNEY OPERAHOUSE
Sydney Operahouse is located on the eastern headland of Circular Quay just a few minutes from the train station. It is made up of 1,056,000 Swedish tiles on the roof, which are off white and are self-cleaning. Construction began in 1959 after a Danish architect Jorn Utzon won an international design competition for the $7 million building. In 1966 Utzon quit after political interference leaving Australian architects to design the interior costing $102million. He has never seen the building completed. Utzon who is now in his eighties has announced to refurbish the interior and he has high hopes that it will be full of colour rather than a black hole. His son comes to Australia to oversee any developments. It was finally was completed against all odds and after several disagreements in 1973. It now is one ...

Advantages: Another chance to see the Master in concert Disadvantages: Taken so long to surface
Santa at last gave me this DVD, although the Santa looked not unlike me. As with RoryGallagherLive at the Rock Palast, this collection of electrifying performances once again sets the standard that others should aspire to, although many of them clearly do not even try. It also reminds me, miserable old sod that I am, why I find it so hard to get worked up about bands such as Maximo Park, Coldplay, Embrace, the Doves, the sad American geek punkers like Fall Out Boy, Bowling For Soup, no-hopers like Linkin Park and Green Day and, going back, such appalling aural assaults such as the hugely over-rated Clash and 99% of those pathetic punk rockers. Why are they all such feeble musicians? Why can none of the bass players play bass? Anybody put on their Slits or Adverts LP lately? No? Never Mind the Bollocks? No? The only thing to say about ...
