Free Music Notes for Tattoo
Free Music Review: great blues/rock from a real hero
Hit: 5 Stars
Rory Gallagher was a hard living and hard working musician, and unfortunately in the tradition of his native Ireland, a hard drinker who died after an unsuccessful liver transplant a few years back. His recorded output was impressive, such was his talent and love of music. Therefore, it's a bit hard to pick just where to start.
Since the U.S. didn't pick up on Gallagher as did Europe, he never made the radio, and no one album can be deemed a classic, in terms of sales, anyway. However, "Tattoo" is one of his most beloved albums, and has stayed available for decades, and for good reason.
Gallagher preferred a gutsy Strat straight out of the box sound without tons of effects. As was his penchant for wearing flannel shirts onstage, way before grunge, he played a workingman's blues - tight and consise - much more emotional and better connected to the blues he loved than anything Eric Clapton has ever done in his entire career.
Plus, he knew how to rock and played some wicked slide guitar. "Tattoo" is a very strong album, with scorchers like "Cradle Rock", a bouncy "They Don't Make Them Like You Any More", and the hard driving "Living Like a Trucker" among the highlights.
For his fans, and they are ferociously dedicated, no one played with more sincerity and no one connected quite like Rory Gallagher. It's time lovers of classic rock guitar not familiar with this legend got caught up.
