2018 remaster from the original master tapes. Reissued with 2 rare BONUS tracks! Robust 1978 album includes "Brute Force & Ignorance". Review: One of my favorite albums from one of my favorite blues guitarists - Most Rory fans rank this as one of his lesser albums which I could never understand. I just love this one. I also love the back story: he recorded most of these songs previously and then literally at the last minute -- the album had been pressed and was just about to ship -- he demanded of his record company that they pull it and not release it. Which naturally drove them nuts. From a business perspective that was an insane thing to do but that was Rory, it was always about the music first last and always. He re-recorded the songs and this was the result. When I'm down and just want to get away from everything I put this on and crank it up. BTW, the original versions of the songs were posthumously released as the album Notes from San Francisco. Not a bad album either but this one is clearly better. I feel as if I should say more but really what else can I say this is IMO one of the greatest blues rock albums ever by one of the greatest blues rock guitarists ever. Technically there are better guitar players but no one had the feeling and emotion of the blues better than Rory. Why do the good always die young? Miss you dude. Review: Kicking album by Rory! - Rory Gallagher's 1978 album "Photo-Finish", is his 7th solo release and is bruising album from start to finish. This Irish guitarist should of been a star in the 70's, but something happened as disco took over. "Photo-Finish", was recorded in Germany at Dierks Studio (where The Scorpions made their most famous recordings). Every song clicks from the hard crunch of "Shin Kicker", to the slow burning blues of "Fuel to the Fire". Other great tunes here are, "Last of the Independents", the classic "Shadow Play", the 50's rock of "Cruise On Out", great bass by Gerry. Other highlights are, "Brute Force and Ignorance", "Cloak and Dagger", "Overnight Bag", the smoking "Early Warning" and the country feel of "Jukebox Annie", kind of a Band feel here. 1979 would bring us "Top Priority". 1978 band consisted of: Rory Gallagher guitar,vocals,harmonica and mandolin. Born March 2,1948 Died June 14, 1995. Gerry McAvoy bass Born December 19, 1951. Ted McKenna drums Born March 10, 1950.

Kicking album by Rory!
Rory Gallagher's 1978 album "Photo-Finish", is his 7th solo release and is bruising album from start to finish. This Irish guitarist should of been a star in the 70's, but something happened as disco took over. "Photo-Finish", was recorded in Germany at Dierks Studio (where The Scorpions made their most famous recordings).

As good as it gets
Rory put out so many OUTSTANDING CDs (Top Priority, Jinxed, Calling Card, etc.) it is hard to choose a favorite, but this one is every bit as good as the others I have mentioned. One of the most important traits in a musician is versatility and Rory demonstrates his from start to finish. If you are a Rory fan you MUST have this CD. If You have NEVER heard Rory YOU MUST HAVE THIS CD. If you are one of those people who only downloads one song then download "Fuel to the Fire" and then you will know why YOU MUST BUY THIS CD

Rory is King
Of all the Rory albums, of which you will not find a bad one, Photo Finish is probably the best one from start to finish. Songs like Shinkicker, Overnight Bag, and Fuel to the Fire are classics. He is a true genius of guitar and song writing. Rory is one of the few, if not the only, artists that I know of that I cannot point to bad record or a period that wasn't very good. You will not be disappointed with this album.

rory rules!
I had the pleasure of seeing Rory twice in concert in his prime! He is without a doubt one of the best live performers I have ever seen! The most energy the best guitar licks, but the best part was that he seemed like he was enjoying every minute of it and the audience surely did! photo finish is Rory at his best start to finish! Highly recommended!

One of the greatest rock and roll artist of all time.
Photo Finish is a great example of some of Rory Gallagher's finest work. The sweetest leads, over the fantastic rhythms surrounded by some of the greatest lyrics sung by the deeply sincere and real person Rory Gallagher was. We miss you Rory!!! RIP

L'avete mai ascoltato un disco insufficiente di Rory ? Io no. Ha suonato sempre le sue cose alla stessa (grande) maniera, non delude mai...se piace il genere , e' roba DOCG.

Photo Finish ist das siebte Studioalbum des William Rory Gallagher und gilt zu Recht als eines seiner besten Alben. Jeder der Songs ist ein Ohrenschmaus für einen Rock- und Bluesliebhaber. Keines der Stücke dürfte fehlen, da das Album dadurch sehr abwechslungsreich geworden ist. Sofort der erste Song "Shin Kicker" geht so richtig ab. Dann folgt einer meiner Lieblingssongs von Photo Finish, nämlich "Brute Force & Ignorance". Einfach nur traumhaft. Meinem Dafürhalten ist allerdings "Shadow Play" der absolute Kracher des Albums. Und wer die tolle Live Fassung dieses Songs von dem Konzert "Live In Montreaux" aus dem Jahre 1979 kennt, der weiß, was ich meine. Aber auch die Songs "Overnight Bag", "Cloak & Dagger" und besonders das tolle Bluesstück "Fuel To The Fire" sind absolut hörenswert. Wie bereits oben erwähnt gehört "Photo Finish" zu Rory Gallagher's Topalben. Wer etwas für sehr gute Rock- und Bluesmusik übrig hat, der sollte sich dieses Album besorgen. Fans haben dieses geniale Album sowieso schon in ihrem Regal als LP und CD stehen. Übrigens, die remasterte Fassung ist meinem Erachten nach sehr gelungen
