Rory Gallagher

Scots veteran passes away ahead of U.S. tour and second Michael Schenker Fest album.

In 1970, the Isle of Wight Festival took place to an audience of around 600,000 in the English countryside.

Rory Gallagher and Taste will release their 1970 Isle of Wight set on DVD on September 18, 2015.

Taste, led by Irish guitar hero Rory Gallagher, released their second and final album, 'On the Boards' on New Year's Day 1970.

This was his first major step toward immortality as perhaps the ultimate working-class guitar hero.
