"This 3CD set (other versions are available) comes from the vaults with a plethora of rare and many unreleased works ... It's honest and earthy and rocking all in one. Whether slow, fast, boogie or storytelling, the blues here is just fantastic ... Not only is this a real goldmine, but proof of just how good a guitarist Rory was ... This is a wonderful collection of some of Rory's rarest and finest".

"The deluxe edition is divided into "Electric," "Acoustic" and "Live" CDs, and the uninitiated are best advised to check out his electric side first. As a vocalist, Gallagher would never be mistaken for Muddy Waters or BB King, but he is emotionally expressive enough to complement his key asset, his fluent and formidable guitar playing. He has a lovely ringing tone, and never over-plays. He may not have been as stylistically versatile as Beck or Clapton, but few captured that classic '70s blues-rock sound this well".

"Issued to mark what would have been his half-century as a recording artist, 90-percent of the material here is previously unreleased. The discs are divided thematically: Electric, Acoustic, and Live. The booklet is wonderfully annotated with an authoritative essay from journalist and music historian Jas Obrecht; it places Gallagher in his rightful historical place as an electric blues rock pioneer alongside admirers Eric Clapton, Johnny Winter, Jimi Hendrix, and Peter Green".
