As I was doing blog #78 a few weeks ago on Rory Gallager, I thought I had more photos of him in my files. Sure enough, I found some pictures that were taken on October 20, 1971 when Rory played at the Milwaukee Arena with Fleetwood Mac and Frank Zappa and his Mothers of Invention.

Here are photographs of Rory's slightly used guitar. The varnish is worn off! Looks like Stevie Ray Vaughn's guitar, doesn't it?

I believe that Rory opened the show on this particular night followed by Frank Zappa and then Fleetwood Mac. If anyone remembers the order being different please let me know, just so I know!

Enjoy a look back at an amazing musician and his band. Have a good week.

Thanks,
