Review (BigOZine2) : This is a slide guitar feast with Rory wailing away with some very hot blues tunes. Rory is really on this night as his guitar playing shines, playing more slide than in later tours. He has only one acoustic song here (Bankers Blues) and a very interesting version of Voodoo Blues. Recorded during the "Irish Tour 74" filming, you can hear why the audience went crazy when he hit the stage. His back-up band is extremely tight, with Gerry McAvoy on bass, Lou Martin on keys and Rod de'Ath on drums. This seems to have been copied from the BBC broadcast acetates.
