Rory Gallagher (2 March 1948? 14 June 1995) was an Irish blues/rock guitarist, born in Ballyshannon, County Donegal,
part of the Province of Ulster. However, he grew up in Cork City in the south of Ireland. He is best known for his solo work,
releasing several albums, and for his tenure in Taste during the late 60s. Rory Gallagher sold in excess of 30 million albums worldwide.
Gallagher's first bands were showbands which played the popular hits of the day. In 1965 he turned The Impact into an R'n'B group
which played gigs in Ireland and Spain. He formed Taste in 1966, but the line-up which gained fame was formed in 1967, featuring
Gallagher on guitar and vocals, John Wilson on drums and Richard McCracken on bass. The group released the albums, Taste and On the Boards,
and made two live recordings, Live at Montreux and Live at the Isle of Wight.
The latter appeared a long time after the band broke up at that same Isle of Wight Festival in 1970.
Gallagher's health and his ability to perform were increasingly compromised by excessive use of alcohol,
combined with drugs that had been prescribed to alleviate his anxiety about flying.From the late 1980s,
he suffered increasingly poor health, yet he continued touring. By the time of his final performance on
10 January 1995 in the Netherlands, he was visibly unwell. A liver transplant became necessary and was
nearly successful, but just before being discharged from the hospital, an MRSA infection developed.
His health quickly worsened and he died in London on 14 June 1995. Gallagher was never married and he had no children.
