Remember him as being around 5'10", but we were sitting backstage with a beer and might be mistaken |

True, but the sweating is what damaged the finish. Watch the Irish Tour DVD sometime, and observe how Rory is sweating on stage. You'd think he was running a marathon. |

I don't know about that, but Taste opened for Cream at Cream's farewell concert at Royal Albert Hall. |

Rory did like a drink. Metabolism of alcohol causes one to exude phenyl aldehydes in one's sweat. The finish that Fender used employed a phenolic component. QED |

I'm told that Taste (Rory's original trio) were booked to open for Cream on a UK tour - Taste were dropped some two gigs into the tour for upstaging the headliner. Apocryphal, bu thas the ring of truth. |

his guitar was stolen and it was found in a ditch, full of rain water... not acidic sweat |

I think I remember an interview with Rory saying he had really acidic sweat which caused the finish erosion. |

Too bad the sound is out of sync. Any ideas why Rory's guitar is so worn at this period of his life? Even put to extra-ordinary use, I can't fathom why a guitar of perhaps 10 years heavy use has lost nearly all the finish and paint. ?? |

The video is 4 or 5 seconds ahead of the audio, but who cares? Jesus, what a great song! Rory was a F----n' treasure.
He never really got his due as a guitarist, he was better than Clapton, in my opinion. |

i always prefered rory's band with piano/keyboard to fill out that sound-i like more heavy rock than endless blues |

Rory draws surrealistic ellipses using a square -minor blues- template. Greatest
live player ever. |

Version off the bbc sessions with Gerry Mc and Rory play in response is better - no footage though just audio.
DVD is live In Montreux , there are 4 released concert dvd's I might be wrong but am fairly sure , you can buy em in most good music shops , in Ireland anyway. |
