Rory Gallagher - The Later Years
by Lauren Alex O'Hagan
ISBN: 9781915246608

Rather than a traditional biography, Rory Gallagher - The Later Years takes the format of a series of essays. It consists of six core sections ('In the Studio', 'On the Stage 1985-1991', 'Introducing the New Rory Gallagher Band', 'On the Stage 1992-1995', 'Ireland', 'Rory in the 21st Century') in which eighteen chapters are grouped together; however, each chapter can be read independently. Although the book's focus is squarely on 1985 to 1995, occasionally it also encompasses important earlier achievements in the 1980s that have been overlooked in previous works on Gallagher. Section 1 looks at Gallagher's three final studio albums: Jinx (1982), Defender (1987) and Fresh Evidence (1990). It also covers his session work and collaborations between 1985 to 1995. Section 2 covers the period when Gerry McAvoy and Brendan O'Neill were members of the Rory Gallagher Band. It recounts Gallagher's tours of Hungary and Yugoslavia (1985), Spain (1986) and the United States, Australia and Japan...
