CD Reviews

Only Newbies Need Apply

Colin Logue | Melbourne, Australia | 08/31/2009

(4 out of 5 stars)

"
Another Rory Gallagher collection and four stars simply because the material is so good and is a fair representation of his solo career covering both the acoustic and heavy blues/rock side of Rory.

Long-time fans will not need this collection which will appeal to completists and those curious or unfamiliar with Gallagher's body of work.

All the tracks are staples but the stand-outs include; A Million Miles Away, Crest of a Wave, Moonchild, Tattoo'd Lady, Walk On Hot Coals and They Don't Make Them Like You Anymore.

This is a good collection but there are others out there which best this one. Check out BIG GUNS - THE VERY BEST OF RORY GALLAGHER which IS career spanning as it takes in TASTE and his solo career and packs more punch than this latest offering.

I agree with Colin.

Steve | Soulard, Mo. | 09/05/2009

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I personally own every Rory Gallagher album he ever issued so there's no point in me buying a greatest hits cd. Nevertheless for someone interested in sampling the man and his music I agree with Colin that Big Guns is a better representation of Rory and his genuis. The man was a paradox extraordinaire but he was also one helluva musician. Rock on Rory. We're still listening."

RORY'S GREATEST BEST OF CD

Ija Huizinga | The Netherlands | 11/23/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"There are many best of cd's of Rory Gallagher,and they are all very good.

But for me this double cd is the best.

And it was a very nice surprise that there is a other version of Overnight bag on this cd.

Different than the original song on the photo finish cd.

This version have's a longer solo on the end.

For people that want to learn to know Rory's music,this cd will be a very good start."
