Rory Gallagher - A Million Miles Away (live) (my favorite Rory cut)

Last edited Wed Mar 2, 2022, 12:05 PM - Edit history (1)

This IMO is the best Rory performance of all. It doesn't seem over 9 minutes. That guy could really tickle that '62 Strat. I don't like to use hyperbole about music, but this is a top 5 song for me. It used to be a daily listen, but now only a couple of times a week. There are a few different versions out there, but this is the best for me. Give it a good listen and you and see if you agree. Reasonably higher volume or headphones are recommended. Enjoy.
