A new statue honoring late electric guitar great Rory Gallagher has been unveiled in his home city of Belfast, but it hasn’t gone down particularly well with some of his fans.
Unveiled by Belfast Lord Mayor Micky Muray and designed by Anto Brennan, Jessica Checkley and David O’Brien of the Bronze Art Ireland, the statue immortalizes a particularly famous pose once struck by Gallagher, which can be seen on the cover of a 1972 issue of Melody Maker.
