Man, this cat is FIERCE! I'm LOVIN' the Rory Gallagher Live At Montreux dvd!!!

Calling Card: 

Gerry's FIERCER on other songs but this is my fav era of RG---circa '77.
It's AWESOME when Rory & Gerry face off & do that call an' response stuff.
Get the dvd if you don't already have it!

He's now in an R&B band called Nine Below Zero. I've seen them a few times on the club circuit over here.

Big Gallagher fan here.  McAvoy was someone I watched a lot.  I got to see Rory at least 4 times, and even got to interview him once.  Incredibly nice guy.  I liked him best when he did the trio with McAvoy and Ted McKenna.

You know that YouTube doesn't even come close to matching the audio with the visual.  Sounds like two completely different songs got overlayed.
