Review:
Rory Gallagher was a popular Irish rock and blues artists who considered his hometown to be Cork, Ireland. He was raised there as a young boy, before growing up to be one of the most revered musicians around the world. The solo artist also founded the band, Taste, and produced various award-winning songs throughout his career such as A Million Miles Away, Bullfrog Blues, and Cradle Rock. Two years after his death in 1995, Gallagher’s childhood friend, sculptor Geraldine Creedon, created a tribute sculpture, the Rory Gallagher Monument, for the music icon. The unveiling ceremony brought together people of all generations and you can still see the monument in the middle of Cork on Rory Gallagher Place.
