Description
Defender is the thirteenth album and the tenth studio album by Irish musician Rory Gallagher. It was originally released on 1st July 1987 and was recorded at The Point, Olympic, West Three, Music Works and Redan Studios. Rory said of the album The tone and mood of the new album is blues and angry, but theres a couple of rockers, and a couple that dont fit any category; but it is really a modern blues album. This 2012 remaster used the original vinyl artwork and 1/4 tapes so that they look and sound exactly as Rory intended.
Johnny Marr The man who changed my musical life was Rory Gallagher, I picked up a guitar because of him.
Slash Rory didnt sound like anybody elseHe had a very individual, independent kind of tone and approach and everything. Hes always been a big hero to me.
Brian May So these couple of kids come up, whos me and my mate, and say How do you get your sound Mr. Gallagher? and he sits and tells us. So I owe Rory Gallagher my sound.
Ritchie Blackmore Rory was probably the most natural player Ive ever seen. In all the gigs we did together I dont think I ever heard him play the same thing twice He was the ultimate performer.
Ed Sheeran A Million Miles Away was the first song I learned on guitar. The story goes that when Jimi Hendrix was asked how it felt to be the greatest guitarist in the world, he answered, I dont know. Go ask Rory Gallagher.
