Any people out there remember Rory Gallagher?

What is a favorite song. I love Tattoo'd Lady.

Update:

Seems he's been forgotten. Yet I've never heard anyone quite like him before or since. I know what songs he recorded. But I wanted to know which songs do you love?

    I love Rory Gallagher! One of the best guitarists I've ever heard! I'm from the city he grew up in, Cork! Theres a whole square in the city called "Rory Gallagher place" and that's where I "hang out" haha... My favourite song is probably Tattoo'd Lady too, but I think it's better on his live album...that solo gives me shivers!! Too Much Alcohol is another one of my favourites! I love them all to be honest!
