Doc´s Diary Vol.2:
Rory Gallagher: 2nd British Rockmeeting, Germersheim, Insel Grün, 1st. Gen. FM & More!
OU Notes: Hey everybody, here´s something for Rock- and Bluesfans!
This is Rory Gallagher´s performance from the 2nd British Rockmeeting in Germersheim, Insel Grün, Germany(near Heidelberg), plus some very nice short cuts(everything I have included), recorded early 70´s in Germany!
This is my first Rory Gallagher compilation!
Amoung the more than 40 acts on this 2nd British Rockmeeting in southern Germany, were Pink Floyd, Wishbone Ash, Uriah Heep, Humble Pie, Kinks, Family and many more. The Bands played from Friday May 20th to Monday May 22nd 1972!
Rory played Monday afternoon, his set was, beside Lindisfarne, the only set broadcasted!(incomplete, ca. 40 mins)
People from other countries hardly could imagine, how popular Rory was here in the earlyer 70´s.......... I saw him there for the first time, and he really did a great and intense performance! He was so good, we couldn t hardly wait for his next show, scheduled for Autumn 1972!
He was the only artist to give 3 encores in Germersheim.... I added 5 tracks he played live acc., in a German FM Radio studio, plus 3 tracks from a really superp audience tape recorded in Ludwigsburg 3/72! (recorded by taper "U",one of the best tapers I found here, for this period!
Ps. I`m proud to say that I attented this festival as a fifteen year old boy! It´s unbelievabale, but the organizers had to change the area for the festival several times in the last moments and one possible area was just 3 km from the small town I grew up! Since my mother saw no way to keep me away from something like that in the neighbourhood, she was prepaired enough to let me go another 20 km, finally!
Enjoy this great piece of history!
Enjoy!!
