This "Talking Guitar" podcast presents Jas Obrecht's complete March 15, 1991, interview with Rory Gallagher. At the time, Rory had just released his final studio album, Fresh Evidence, and was midway through what was to be his last American tour. This wide-ranging conversation took place backstage at the Catalyst Club in Santa Cruz, California. During this conversation, Rory displayed an extraordinary knowledge of historic American blues musicians and was refreshingly candid about his recordings, playing techniques, guitars and gear, the personal issues that had prevented him from touring overseas, and his advice for staying sane on the road. An edited transcription of this interview appeared in the June 1991 issue of Guitar Player magazine.
