Wheels Within Wheels
It was a sad day when Rory Gallagher died back in June, 1995. Passing so young, there were so many things the brilliant Irish guitarist had left undone. But, thanks to the efforts of his faithful brother Donal, Wheels within Wheels fulfils at least one of those lost ambitions. On each of his hugely popular electric albums, Rory featured a rootsy acoustic track, and had wanted to release a complete album of such performances. This is it. Collecting and tidying a selection of out-takes and lost recordings from 1974 to 1994, Donal clearly reveals his brother's passion for and eclectic taste in the blues, skiffle and folk, and his love of collaborating with other great musicians. The Irish-Elizabethan instrumental "Bratacha Dubha" features folk heroes Martin Carthy and Maire Ni Chathasaigh, "She Moves through the Fair" finds Bert Jansch in a folky mood, "Barley and Grape Rag" is a happy knockabout with the Dubliners, while Bela Fleck and Lonnie Donegan also put in appearances. Of course, given Rory's prodigious abilities, the playing is exceptionally fine, but there's also rare warmth here, Donal capturing a spirit that was simultaneously respectful, dignified and wild. --Dominic Wills Binding Audio CD.
