RORY GALLAGER
"DEUCE"
UK - POLYDOR - 2383076
TOP COPY ....Original 1972 BRITISH first pressing ...
The second solo by guitar-Rory packs a big wallop, loading up with fiery self penned deliveries, his lead & slide work is off the charts...one of his best, if you don't know it or need to revist it, get ready for a solid two sides of whippin' blues....
Includes the original plastic lined printed UK/Polydor inner sleeve
'Deuce' was the culmination of Rory's musical apprenticeship. He'd toured with and released acclaimed records with 'Taste' where he played the Isle of Wight Rock Festival, but this was the first time he'd had the necessary level of control, self belief and technical ability to record the album he'd always wanted to.
In 1971 when he began working on 'Deuce', he decided on a different approach to the recording of his second album. His first album 'Rory Gallagher', had a precise, organized sound. Rory was keen 'Deuce' would capture the raw energy of a live performance. To achieve this, many of the sessions were recorded just before or immediately after gigs and production was kept to a minimum. The results were electric ...
Like its predecessor, its main selling point is Gallagher's tasteful guitar playing. He tends to be neat, clean and precise, as well as unencumbered by massive slurring and distortion, although a bit of tastefully controlled feedback is allowed to escape once in a while. He handles slide and anglo-flash techniques with equal aplomb, and moves easily from one style to the other with a minimum of distress.
Without doubt, the best cuts are the infectious hard rockers, among the many highlights are "Used To Be," "Whole Lot of People," and "Crest of a Wave." They depend solely on Gallagher's Page-Beck-Peter Green guitar riffs, and prove, if nothing else, that he has absorbed his many influences well.
