Rory Gallagher was an Irish guitarist and songwriter, born on 2nd March, 1948 in Ballyshannon, Co. Donegal. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential guitarists of all time. Despite his immense talent, Gallagher refused to release singles or music videos and even turned down the opportunity to join The Rolling Stones in the 1970s. Tragically, he fell ill while on tour in the Netherlands and later passed away in London due to complications arising from a liver transplant.

Throughout his career, Gallagher had several band line-ups. From 1971-1972, his band consisted of Gerry McAvoy on bass and Wilgar Campbell on drums. From 1972-1978, it included Gerry McAvoy (bass), Lou Martin (keyboards), and Rod de'Ath (drums). Then from 1978-1981, Ted McKenna replaced de'Ath on drums while McAvoy remained on bass. From 1981-1991, Brendan O'Neill took over drumming duties with frequent guest Mark Feltham playing harmonica. Lastly, from 1992-1994 David Levy played bass alongside Jim Leverton and John Cooke on keyboards and Richard Newman on drums with Mark Feltham still making appearances as a guest harmonica player.

The 2022 return of Ronnie Foster to Blue Note Records is an event of synergistic quintessence, completeness, and cool. The organ great’s dynamic new album, Reboot, arrives upon the 50th anniversary of his 1972 Blue Note debut Two Headed Freap, which featured his memorable tune “Mystic Brew” that would later reach the ears of hip-hop fans around the world when A Tribe Called Quest sampled the track as the foundation of “Electric Relaxation” on their 1994 album Midnight Marauders.The nine-song Reboot marks a fresh start for Foster, who has whipped up an omnidirectional brew of Hammond Organ Groove that, yes, pays homage to the past but more often reflects Ronnie’s restlessness for ushering in the new. Mightily hoisting the Blue Note organ torch, Foster gives thanks to the musical osmosis that was poured into him by all of the greats that preceded him. In the album’s liner notes, Ronnie makes sure to pay homage to one very important person in his life who passed away in 2021: “This album is dedicated to the memory of my brother, friend, Buffalo Homie and hero Dr. Lonnie Smith, who was one of the best in the world on the Hammond B3 organ.”
