That is what I like to see, young people picking up on Rory's music, learning it, then making it their own, like Rory used to do with the music of the great ones who came before him. There was another kid I came across on YouTube who was born completely blind in both eyes, and deaf in one ear, he started playing Rory's music as a child. And now he fronts a band of his own. As long as this keeps happening, Rory's music will never be forgotten.

Great to see younger players playing Rory, and doing it so well.
What a cracking solo that is on the live version of Tattoo'd Lady.

Came across this one while surfing for new Rory finds. I love to see this, someone picks up Rory's music because they love it- no other reason or motivation

[Annie Elliott]

Wow! Really good and love to see the young ones loving Rory! Thanks for sharing that.

[Tom Jonas]

That was excellent! One of my Rory-favourites. And it didn't look too difficult, except for the ending solo.
Maybe I should pick up my Stratocaster again and have ago. Though it means a couple of painful weeks for my fingertips before they are hard enough.

Wow! Really good and love to see the young ones loving Rory!

Probably my favourite rendition of that song on youtube. Feels so much more inspired than the common, dime in a dozen "let's cover the guitar parts of a song" while the original song plays in the background version one usually finds on youtube.

Here's another lovely acoustic cover, this time of 'Daughter of the Everglades'

That is what I want to see- the young ones, the gifted and talented just discovering Rory, let's see what happens when Rory is rediscovered by one like him
