You're spot on there mate but don't forget, Stevie Vai played all the rock guitar during the cutting heads scene which was prolly the best guitar work in the whole movie.

Yes all mentioned are brilliant. Slowing it down a bit, how aboun Samba Pa Ti - Santana & Still In Love With You - Thin Lizzy

Love you Benny!!!!! I worshipped Rory ..... saw most of his gigs in Dublin in the 70s ...... was in Ballyshannon in June for the 10th Rory Festival ...... my 26yr old son came with me and he is now a convert...... loads of check shirts, denims etc ..... and of course all those blondes with long black skirts!!!!!!! yahoo!!! I'm now goin to try and find his solo in the live version of Walk on Hot Coals and post it here ...... it is lethal! Cheers for remembering him mate. We all shouted NICE ONE RORY .......so NICE ONE BENNY!!!

In an interview Jimi Hendrix was asked 'How does it feel to be the best guitarist in the world'. He answered 'I don't know. Go and ask Rory Gallagher'

Just listen to this guys!

This ain't half bad either - fair play to ya Keith! Of course the story goes The Stones wanted Rory too!!!

One of those rare occasions where the studio version is probably better!
