Interview with Rory Gallagher Bassist Gerry McAvoy Pt. 1

Among the most influential blues rock guitarists of his generation, Rory Gallagher set the standard for excellence – on stage and in the studio. Rory Gallagher was that rare guitarist whom you recognize in a single passage. His bassist for his entire solo career was Gerry McAvoy, whom we interviewed from his home in France. Gerry discusses the artistry of Rory Gallagher, their decades long career, Bob Dylan’s reverence for Rory Gallagher, and Gerry’s approach to playing bass in support of a rock virtuoso.
