Some things you never forget. The needle drops onto your brand new copy of Sinner and Saint and practically explodes as Rory's vibrato snakes its way from a deep black
groove. You exchange a glance with your brother and you both think "This
guy came to play." Whether he was picking a Leadbelly
tune on his acoustic guitar or backing up Albert King at
Montreux, Rory gave it all, every time. And could he slide? Glad you asked.
Yes. If you wondered whether he was real all you had to do was look at his bruised, scarred, beautiful Strat. The finish was played right off it. Chicago to Cork, Cork to Anchorage.
